    The view

    Everything is pre cooked, no cash taken here. Cashier was not happy. It came in a timely fashion The location is fabulous The view of whales jumping beautiful birds.

    Outside view

    Okay, hear me out. The views were amazing BUT the açaí bow I got had hardly any smoothie at the bottom of the bowl. It felt like I was just eating fruit in a cup with granola it didn't have the creamy smooth part of an açaí bowl. If I'm spending $18 for a good açaí bowl you better preform. The service was very good, both women working were super bubbly and engaged in conversation we had. I'm just overall under whelmed with the bowl. I need more smoothie so maybe try switching to bigger cups??

    This was a little food stall at the Wailea Beach Resort. I stopped there several times in the morning after my walk to get something for breakfast and did lunch there a couple times as well. They do a very nice acai bowl that I had multiple times. Lots a great fresh fruit on it. They also make a very nice banana bread that I had a couple of times. For lunch, I had their caprese sandwich one day and their margherita flat bread another day. Both were tasty. Staff was friendly and helpful. A nice location oceanfront.

    We walked by on along the beach and had never gotten any Acai bowls in the area, and heard you should try acai bowls in Haiwaii, so we decided to give it a try. Although I only had one thing from them, it was ok. Nothing really special. To me it wasn't enough acai, and it was hella expensive for $16 for just all fruit and a few sprinkles of granola. I can't say what their other food tastes like. But acai bowl not worth it.

    Decent beach food stand with tasty smoothies. Their bahn mi was surprisingly good for a place that doesn't necessarily specialize in Vietnamese food. Definitely a filling treat if you find yourself at in the Wailea area, but you're probably better off bringing your own stuff. $30 for charcuterie? Yikes. I didn't get it but my kid nephew did and it was at least worth $10 worth of meat and cheese from your local grocery store.

    Açaí bowl. Filled with tons of granola on bottom

    It's pricey but it's also tasty! The breakfast sandwich was quite yummy, the flu kicker juice was just the right amount of ginger and fruit juice. The açaí bowl was more expensive than anywhere else I've been to, and a bit lacking on the actual smoothie amount, but it's a resort bar so I kind of expected over priced yet tasty dishes. It's great to stop by on your sunrise stroll though so you've just gotta do it.

    Chicken banh mi sandwich and flatbread
    David A.

    It is a nice little joint facing the beautiful Pacific Ocean. We got the flatbread and the chicken sandwich. The flatbread was good just would have been better if crust was a bit crispier. The sandwich was just too messy and hard to eat. Very nice employees.

    Listen when you're sitting there staring out at the sunset, it's hard to not feel good but then you get a Mai Tai and some fresh flat bread. You're going to have a good time, that's what whale tale was about. Incredible location and solid food. We had their flat bread, smoothies and Mai Tais on a couple of nights that we were there and the food was good not spectacular if a bit pricey but that's the location.

    Perfect beach side tacos!
    Jackie C.

    What a perfect spot for beach side tacos! My husband and I were staying at Hotel Wailea up the street and some locals suggested that this was a great spot for lunch. It was a lovely walk from our beach spot to the restaurant. We ordered the nachos and fish tacos - absolutely delicious! The outside area was beautiful, the view could not be beat and the price was perfect. We walked back along the beach to our chairs for a nap. It was really the perfect amount of food for two people and just far enough away to get the blood moving after laying around.

    What to try ..
    Yogibear C.

    Best place to grab a healthy breakfast. We loved the Açaí berries and fresh juices. Top notch service. We almost could not resist our temptation to get the Whale's tale juice and Açaí bowl at this place. The lines were long but we cared the least.

    Went and dined at Spoon & Key Market on our most current trip to Hawaii. Hands down our new…read morefavorite place to eat on Maui. We were spoiled with such a wonderful and memorable experience and would make the hour drive from Kaanapali to Wailea many times to dine here. Firstly, the restaurant is open, airy, clean, and casual with an elevated dining experience serving the most amazing food. There's a beautiful ocean view from the restaurant that sets up the relaxing atmosphere, sunset included. Secondly, the service was incredible. Abby was poised, polite, kind, and just wonderful all around. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Thirdly, Chefs Chris and Tarah treated us to many delicious plates. The caviar starter was unique and remarkable. The ahi crudo and ceviche were fresh and vibrate, as well as the green salad and fried green tomatoes with burrata. I had the best smash burger of my life. My father-in-law agreed and loved his. My husband said he loved his chicken entree, cooked perfectly, flavorful. His new favorite chicken dish anywhere. Mother-in-law raved about her fish, soft and perfectly cooked. This is a can't miss place. The place is inviting and warm. Chris and Tarah were a joy to be around. Do yourself a favor and dine here.

My husband had the same hash with grilled ahi (very salty) . They tell you the egg on the hash is a runny sous vide- I think she said. I thought it would be ok, like ramen, ....Runny was right, the white of the egg was more translucent than opaque. Specify more cooked egg if this raw thing is not for you. Service was with a smile, but we were half finished with our breakfast before the Bloody Marys showed up. Patio is nice and airy with some view across the blue course and toward Molokini. In the treetops. So why a rate of 3? It's the details- the server commented on delayed drinks very dismissively, and their outdoor speaker was on too loud to the point it reverberated with some static, definitely blown out. I asked to please turn it down or off as it was not adding to the experience. Got a very strange look and maybe it was turned down a fraction about 10 minutes later. Traffic noise was significant but we were sitting outside next to the road. Expected. But to compete with the music and traffic was not our cup of tea. This breakfast as described was $95. You decide.

The cashier was really friendly, and once you order, they actually come find you to hand you your order, which was a really nice touch. The açaí itself was really good. The portion is big and comes in a cute jar. The açaí was thick and smooth, not overly sweet, and the fruit was fresh. It felt super refreshing after a long morning, and the whole place just has a great, chill vibe. Definitely a nice stop if you are in the area and want something light but filling.

Super cute ambiance and friendly faces behind the counter won me over completely! They have nice lemonades: loved both the ones we tried. I especially loved the avocado toast with the chili flakes. It reminded me of home (Los Angeles) and I was super happy. Açaí bowl was fantastic. Chicken flatbread was yummy too! Plenty of parking in the strip mall. Service is super friendly and food and lemonade is fresh. I love supporting local places when I'm traveling and I will definitely be back when I'm in Maui next time!
