Spago is our special place. My husband and I celebrated our wedding here three years ago, and we've…read morereturned every year since for our anniversary. It has become part of our story, and every visit continues to feel just as meaningful and memorable as the first. The setting is absolutely stunning. Between the beautifully designed interior and the outdoor seating overlooking the beach in front of the Four Seasons, it creates one of the most romantic date-night settings on Maui. The food never misses the mark. We started with an English pea soup that was exquisitely seasoned and beautifully balanced. I followed with the Broiled Miso Marinated Walu, tender, delicate, mildly sweet, served with sesame sauce and crisp cucumbers that added the perfect contrast. The rack of lamb was juicy, tender, and cooked perfectly. Dessert was unforgettable: the "Spikey Lemon" calamansi cake with yuzu curd and crunchy meringue, plus freshly baked donuts that arrived crispy, warm, and drenched in a divine chocolate sauce. Pure heaven. But what truly sets Spago apart, and what makes each visit unique, is the front-of-house staff. Over the years we've been lucky enough to be served by both Jeb and Mikayla. Jeb was also our waiter on our wedding night, which made seeing him again feel especially meaningful. He has a rare gift: he makes guests feel genuinely special. His knowledge of the menu is remarkable, he reads the flow of a meal perfectly, and he is charming, funny, and effortlessly attentive without ever being overbearing. What keeps us coming back isn't just the food or the atmosphere. it's the impeccable hospitality. One moment we'll never forget: on our wedding night, after I mentioned I was Austrian, Jeb surprised us with a Kaiserschmarrn. It was unexpected, thoughtful, and one of those gestures that instantly lets you know you're more than just another table. You're valued. Thank you to the front-of-house staff, thank you to the kitchen, and thank you, Wolfgang Puck, for creating a place that has become such an important part of our lives. We'll keep coming back.

The macadamia nut encrusted mahi-mahi, and the chef special fish were extraordinary. We had the papaya salad and chef's choice flatbread for appetizers and they were super yummy. The ambience was amazing, but what really made our meal special was our outstanding server Nash. She was so welcoming and went out of her way to make sure that everything absolutely perfect. She made great suggestions and even altered a few things on the menu to balance out the perfect meal. She really has been the best server here in Maui.. right down to putting candles on our dessert and happiness blow them out and make an anniversary wish...this will now be our favorite treat when where we're back on the island...aloha..

Easy parking, cute shops to check out treats and then headed to brunch. We were seated in the back overlooking the plantation. It was spectacular! Our waitress was very sweet and attentive. We started with pork belly bao that was good- the pickled veg was the best part. I got a side salad with the papaya dressing and the maui onion soup en croute at the waitresses recommendation, both were so good and the greens were grown right at the farm. My husband got the Caesar salad with chicken, he liked it. One son got the loco moco and said it was good. We were very happy with the location, the ambiance and the food.

Delightful setting - entry portion is somewhat lively with diners coming and going and includes bar seating option as well. Rear dining room - beyond wall of recognition - more subdued. Colorful artwork creates visual interest to adorn original General Store architecture (presumably) of lofty ceiling heights with high operable windows and marries the vintage to contemporary. The iced tea is in it's own lane - "passionberry" - so refreshing. Fresh local fish is in the cooler for your seafood choices. Make sure to leave room for the pineapple upside down cake - with vanilla ice-cream - served warm - will drop your jaw on the first bite. Staffing is most welcoming and attentive. Make reservations.

They were having a 20% off kamaaina day so we decided to take advantage of the offer. The…read morerestaurant used to be a plantation store so the decor inside is a reminder of that. The items displayed on the shelves are for sale. The service here is stellar! We started with Passion Berry Iced Tea and Crab Pizza. The Crab Pizza has a creamy crab topping on a homemade crust. It reminds me of crab dip with pita bread- so yummy! The iced tea is fruity, really refreshing, and includes refills. For dinner we ordered the Prime Rib special and Korean BBQ Braised Short Rib. Both were served with garlic mashed potatoes and veggies. The Prime Rib was 14oz and cooked perfectly. The Short Rib was fork tender and well seasoned. I hope they offer Kamaaina deals more often!

The mushroom pizza the best. Their salads are awesome too (just not a happy hour item but worth it full price). We sat at a table this time and had the best service by Gigi. She accommodated all of our special requests and food allergies. Not many places do that, and all with a smile on her face :-) I also love sitting at the bar ... all the bartender staff are so friendly. Moku's is #1 in my books!

After a day of holoholoing FPO and I decided to do Sunday pupus and drinks at the bar. You can self-park in parking structure or valet in front of the hotel. The Plumeria validates.

The prices are a little on the high side but you get what you pay for. This place is a go to for us every time we're on the island.

The food, not so much. We were there for breakfast but did not opt for the buffet. At this price point I was disappointed. The coffee tasted like dishwater. The guava juice was delightful. I had The Continental; the variety of pastries consisted of 3 chocolate; a chocolate muffin, a chocolate chip muffin, a chocolate croissant; a plain croissant and a pecan cinnamon roll, so sweet on sweet. All tasty but not much variation. The fresh fruit was excellent, the pineapple was not cored. Hubby had the avocado toast; it was just okay. The fish was plain and small portion. I am sure we will visit the Hotel again but maybe give the poolside bar a try. The setting is idyllic.

The ambiance is dark, moody, and intimate--exactly what you want for a special occasion--but what really stood out was the live music. It added such a beautiful energy to the space and broke things up in the best way without taking away from the vibe. Every single dish we ordered was impeccable. Not one miss. The drinks were also perfectly balanced--crafted with intention, not just poured--and it definitely showed. Service? Top-tier. Our water glasses were never empty, and the entire staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. Huge shoutout to our server, Tori, who was absolutely amazing. She knew the menu front to back--ingredients, preparation, flavor profiles--and guided us with the best recommendations. You can tell she genuinely cares about the experience. And the finale... the 24-carat gold dessert. Easily the best way to end the night--such a fun, elevated touch that made the whole experience feel even more special. Pro tip: If you're driving, park at International Market Place and make sure to get your parking validated. Overall, an unforgettable experience. Perfect for celebrations or just treating yourself to something exceptional.

For our main courses, we had the Chef's Favorite Pizza and the Spaghetti al Ricci di Mare--both were excellent. The pizza featured a very thin crust, and the cheese had a bold, rich flavor. The spaghetti was equally impressive, with a creamy, delicious sauce. However, I do wish they had added a generous portion of uni on top, as that would have elevated the dish even more. The service was friendly, and the ambiance was comfortable, making for an overall enjoyable dining experience.
