I've tried several highly rated shaved ice spots in Maui, but this little gem by the pool at the…read moreMarriott Maui Ocean Club takes the cake! It was so good that I went back three times in three days. You can't go wrong with their Top Shelf Shaves, which are curated creations with delicious flavor combos. As a coffee lover, the Affogato was my absolute favorite: shaved ice with espresso and sweet milk syrup, a creamy cappuccino gelato center, and whipped cream and coffee beans on top. I also tried the Dreamboat, which is essentially an orange creamsicle in shaved ice form, and it was excellent. You can taste the quality of their syrups, and the staff are so kind. Definitely worth a stop!

My personal favorite was the lilikoi cheesecake- texture and flavor wise it's a dream. The staff is super nice and will let you sample as many flavors as you want (and they're generous samples too!). Another nice thing- they let you split scoops! The scoops are pretty big so it was perfect for the second time we went being able to do that and get 2 flavors. The shop itself is cute and has some seating inside as well as 2 tables outside. From the other reviews it sounds like we lucked out and never had crowds there. Soooo good I will be recommending this spot to everyone, and next time I'm back in Maui I'll be back!

One of the best desserts I've had in all my life was here at Island Cream Co.! I am a huge banana…read morefan, and when I tasted the Banana Maui, their version of bananas foster, I thought I might fall over. It's vanilla ice cream (though I changed mine to banana ice cream so I could go totally overboard) covered in fresh bananas, brandy and banana liqueur, and two pieces of banana bread stuffed into each side of the cup. Indescribably delicious! Some places would make the banana bread an afterthought in a dessert like this, thinking that the rest of the dish would be so good that the banana bread could be just anything halfway decent. Not so here. The banana bread in this dessert was some of the best we had on the island during our entire two-week stay! I can't comment on the rest of the menu, since we didn't try anything else, but people seem to rave about other items here, too. The make-your-own shave ice at the Ultimate Shave Ice station seems to be a unique take on a Hawaii staple, and it's up to you whether you prefer an expert to be making yours rather than guessing at how to make it yourself, but if you want to be the boss, well, here you go! And it's definitely a hit with kids, as you might imagine. And their pineapple cream claims to be a much better and natural version of Dole Whip, so it's probably worth a try! Located in a modern strip mall, service here is friendly, and you may need to wait in line for a little while, depending on when you come. Not a ton of seating inside or out, but we did score a table outside and enjoyed our dessert in the beautiful Maui weather. The prices are about what you'd expect, no more and no less, and worth every penny! So do not pass up this dessert spot when you come to this part of the island. In my opinion, you won't regret stopping in!

Enjoyed their tour learning about their farms and sampling the delicious chocolate. It was so good we ended up buying over $100 of chocolate to bring back as gifts!

If you came to West Maui, and didn't go chocolate tasting at Ku'ia, did you really visit Maui?…read more I mean, I had an amazing time on my vacation in Ka'anapali - but this was the absolute foodie highlight, better than any restaurant and a lot more reasonable! We skipped the pricey farm tour (we did coffee farm tours last year and are farmed out) and went straight to the chocolate café. They will give you a five piece tasting for free, either a dark, milk, or sugar-free flight. But why would you come here and just take... When you can also give back to folks in Lahaina rebuilding? So we got two free flights, one milk and one dark. My sweetie added on a drink, a pastry, and some very tasty chocolate and salted caramel gelato. I went with a make your own alcohol pairing, which was so much fun and very reasonable. For about $17, I got a shot of coconut rum with two chocolate pairings and a shot of premium Martiniquan JM volcanic rhum Agricole with another two chocolate pairings. And then I still had my free five pieces. What an amazing taste adventure, for cheaper than the price of a cocktail at a hotel bar or even a locally owned foodie place? I don't want to mess up your tasting - so you pick your favorites! But I normally don't like rhum agricole - and the pairings were such an amazing flavor adventure. Honestly, this is my number one recommendation in West Maui. Give the folks some business and have an amazing time! Oh, and they have jazz on Sunday nights' but I'm sure it's more crowded than than popping in during the day on a weekday. And also: the second floor tasting room has panoramic views of the ocean and around Lahaina. Check them out!

I'm posting this review specifically for Saturday Prime Rib Night at Beach Walk Kau Kau because I…read moreinitially came here looking for reviews on the prime rib and couldn't find any! We were staying at the Marriott and received a text about their Saturday Prime Rib Night. I had actually called to make a reservation, not realizing it was a casual, walk-up counter with grab-and-go service. Once we heard the price, we figured, why not? It sounded like a great deal! We decided to order the prime rib and enjoy it at the pool bar. To our surprise, not only was the portion incredibly generous, but it was also delicious! The photo honestly doesn't do it justice. The bartender was kind enough to give us plates, and once we plated everything, it looked much more appetizing. My sister and I split one order, and it was enough for both of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal! If you're looking for a tasty, affordable, and casual dinner without the fuss of a sit-down restaurant, Saturday Prime Rib Night by the pool is a great choice! Definitely worth trying, especially for the price!
