There are not many places to get a good slice of pie on Maui, but Maui Pie in Kihei is the real…read moredeal. I will drive from Wailuku to Kihei every time just for their peach cobbler. I had the peach cobbler warmed up and a la mode, and it was delicious. Crumble toppings on pie are my absolute favorite, that buttery, crumbly goodness you wish would never end. Hubby had the key lime pie a la mode, and it was the perfect balance of creamy sweetness and tart, but not too tart. Both slices came with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream, which is the only way to do it. The service was friendly, too. The indoor seating was full, so we sat outside, which turned out to be lovely for people watching and enjoying the fresh air. If you have a sweet tooth and appreciate a proper slice of pie, Maui Pie is worth the trip. Highly recommend, and I'll see you there for more peach cobbler!

ONE OF THE BEST PIES I'VE EVER HAD…read more ** But terrible customer service ** This place would easily be a 5 star if they had more polite people working there. My mom politely asked if they had any sugar-free pies available. The girl at the register stated " you need to ask for those a day in advance". So my mom asked if she could place an order now to pick up one tomorrow. The girl then looked up from the register with an annoyed look on her face and said, verbatim, " does it look like I'm the head baker? I only work the register. You need to leave the store and call us to order". We all looked at each other shocked. That was the most rude response I've heard in a while... like we are supposed to know who specifically ask to order a sugar free pie ... ... just a wild situation for such a fun place with great tasting pies. The good: - blackberry mango was probably my favorite pie - peach cobbler a close second place - loved the mountain berry as well The bad: - the girl working the register - you want a sugar free pie? Make sure to NEVER ask in person. You have to call in. - And they only offer whole pies and not slices for sugar free pies The verdict: - minus 2 stars for the rude girl who yelled at my mom - minus 1 star for only having whole pies and not slices for sugar free pies, even though they only have 3 flavors to choose from... Such a shame to have people like that working at a place that serves such a good product.

All shave ice is absolutely not created equal, and Ululani's proves it! We missed their closing…read moretime on one of our days and had to settle for a different shop. The difference was night and day. Ululani's ice is incredibly light and flaky, and their flavors are so pronounced and delicious. Yes, the lines can be long, but it is for a great reason! Both the Sunset Beach and No Ka Oi combinations were amazing. I also loved that they have signs encouraging you to ask for more syrup if needed. It ensures your treat is made exactly to your taste. I just wish they would consider staying open later!

This is a really nice location with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. It's mainly a…read more"walk-up window" style setup where you order and then wait around to pick up your shave ice. The shave ice itself was incredibly smooth and finely shaved. However, a few details felt a bit lacking: Even after paying extra for a snow cap, they barely added any of the topping. Additionally, the shave ice could have used a bit more syrup. While they do have a sign saying you can return to the window for extra syrup, nobody actually wants to squeeze back up to the front when there is already a many people waiting. They play great, upbeat music over a loudspeaker for the vibe, but because the music is loud and you have to pick up from the window, it's really hard to hear when they call out names. Everyone ends up crowding around the window, constantly double-checking if their order was the one called. There are very few tables available compared to the crowd of people ordering, so they could definitely stand to add a few more seats. Overall, the quality of the shave ice texture is excellent, but the experience would be much better with a smoother pickup process, better portioning on premium toppings, and a few more spots to sit and enjoy!

There is going to be a line almost always because the shop is small. Icing is not included but it's only .85¢ to add and if you get 5 rolls the 6th is free. Drinks are good, but definitely not the star of the show. We will definitely go back! Update: we went back again on our vacay and tried the Hawaiian Head Sandwich. We got one on a bagel and one on a croissant, they were phenomenal!

cinnamon roll - instantly felt sorrowful the moment my…read morefriend gnawed through the dry stale wheat; i could feel the texture just by seeing it with my own eyes - it was far from soft and pillowy but tasted as if it was left out for hours... perhaps that's why there was no line nor customers here - the glaze was crazily and unnecessarily sticky and sweet; i rather have a liquidy cream cheese glaze than a sticky almost hardened one - the exterior was a bit crunchy in an erroneous manner simply because it was over baked or something - this was everything gone wrong in a bun - i also didn't taste much cinnamon banana bread - loved this though! I got the bread with macadamia nuts because i love nuts and they drive me nuts - nuts were fresh enough, which added the crunchy texture to my soft moist bread - could be more moist but it was already satisfactory - i like how they sell smaller pieces rather than a whole loaf but also it was more pricey - not as fresh and as good as aunty sandy's but decent! rating: 3/5 - since this place focuses on cinnamon roll, the rating is heavily weighted towards the cinnamon, which did not meet the minimum expectations of what a basic cinnamon roll should be - if this place was called the banana bread place, id give it a 4/5 - quick service nothing much to note - very small store; grab and go vibes with some seats outside IG: @nom.noms.only

The Legendary Malasadas A true Portuguese-Hawaiian style…read moremalasada is a work of art, and Sugar Beach nails it. Unlike standard donuts, theirs are fried to a perfect golden crisp on the outside while staying unbelievably fluffy, light, and pillowy on the inside. The Passion Fruit (Lilikoi) Magic: Tasting that tart, bright, tropical lilikoi burst against the sugary, warm dough is unforgettable. It cuts right through the richness of the pastry perfectly. Freshness First: Because they open bright and early at 6:00 AM, getting them warm means you are catching them at peak texture--crisp, airy, and meltingly soft. Mouth-Watering Savories & Pies It's rare for a bakery to completely master both ends of the spectrum, but they strike an incredible balance between decadent sweetness and rich, savory comfort: The Quiche: Getting a morning slice with a perfectly flaky, buttery crust and a rich, velvety egg custard is the ultimate savory breakfast comfort. The Key Lime Pie: A masterclass in balance. The sharp, refreshing pucker of the lime curd pairs flawlessly with a thick, buttery graham cracker crust, making it the ultimate mid-day or post-beach treat. The Croissants: True to artisan form--shattered layers on the outside, a rich, tender, airy web of butter on the inside. The Ultimate Beachside Vibe What truly seals the memory is the pure sense of place. It's a quintessential "cute little bakery"--unassuming, warm, and hyper-focused on quality. Being located right across from the beach means your morning walk isn't just an errand; it's an experience. Holding a warm box of malasadas and a fresh coffee while looking out at the ocean is pretty much peak relaxation. Just remember the golden rule of the neighborhood to avoid heartbreak: they take Sundays off, making Monday mornings all the sweeter when those doors swing open at 6:00 AM again! Service was awesome . Staff was very attentive

When we showed up the lights were half on. I went in since the door was unlocked and the guy in the shop said they were closed. When I asked him about the time he said "they were closed early tonight," which to me just meant he didn't want to work anymore. So we went and spent our money at a different ice cream shop.

One of the things I really loved--something that truly made me feel like a kid in a candy store--was their in-shop camera. You can choose between taking photos, videos, or boomerangs, and then text or email them to yourself. It added such a fun and unique twist to the experience--something I've never seen in a shop before. Definitely an extra treat if you ask me! Here's what we ordered and how we rated it: Mint Chocolate Chip & Coffee Ice Cream - 5/5 This combination was a pleasant surprise! Creamy, smooth, and perfectly balanced, the flavors blended together in a way I didn't know I needed until that very first bite. If you were have a sweet tooth...please be sure to stop by, as I believe you will not regret it!

This was by far the best meal we had in Maui! We had read some ratings online and tried to find…read morethis place but had a hard time because Google Maps was not very helpful. I called and asked them for directions and they actually guided us. They were also really patient in explaining the menu to us and explaining the different types of fish and what not. Really glad we were patient and actually came here! Such a lovely aesthetic to the whole area and the food. Oh my goodness!!! The burst of flavor in everything was phenomenal! Such unique combinations and everything was so fresh and cooked so well and just mind blowing! Husband and I kept saying how we should have just gone there multiple times for food! Mahi Mahi Bento bowl with Ono instead. (It has Crispy Sushi Rice / Black Garlic / Market Vegetables) I really have no words to see how good this combination was! I was actually a little full going into dinner but ended up actually wiping this whole plate clean! The food was that good! Husband got the Roasted Organic Chicken With Coconut with Coconut Carrot Curry and Roasted Vegetables. Very different vibe from my item but also really delicious. Heat thoroughly enjoyed this one! The chicken was perfectly cooked and the carrot coconut curry combination with the vegetables and the chicken was lovely. He kept some leftovers for the next day because the chicken portion size was quite huge and we enjoyed it even the next day! Seaweed salad was also delicious! Super fresh and tasty!

(+) Pretzel Croissant…read more Maui bread is a bakery that sells pastries, some hot food items, and desserts. Another staple when visiting Maui. My wife and I come here for their pretzel croissant. It tastes exactly what it sounds like. They used to give the mustard spread, but now they charge for it. Either way, we are still coming back because of how fluffy and flakey the croissant is. You have to try it. We've tried a few other pastries and they were decent.

I did enjoy overall. The cinnamon roll was not hot from the oven, so I avoided disappointment. Next time I got the almond croissant. Pretty tasty. Basically they cut the croissant in half, filled in the cream and put the top back. Odd. Better between the two. Might be too sweet for some. Prices are higher than other places. I don't think you'll find anything subpar. Seems like good offerings.
