    Made on maui
    Long D.

    An ice-cream shop right behind the busy Monkeypod kitchen, hula grill , and Leilani restaurants. Super nice lady working solo from scooping ice cream to handling register and everything else. There is always a line but always a smile from her. Not one of the best creamy gelato but enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. There is also some local gifts made in Maui for your tourist needs. Nice place to visit.

    Chocolate Hazelnut scoop

    It's perfectly good gelato, but, as you'd expect, it's expensive. $8 for a scoop in a cup.

    The wife wanted something cold after shopping, so we tried this little shop for gelato, as she dined on her coffee dessert. For me, I really don't eat sweets, but the wife enjoyed her gelato, which is all that matters...

    We stopped here for dessert after eating lunch at Monkey Pod. The poor server was working solo and had to scoop ice cream and work the register with a long line of people to serve. She was super efficient and courteous. The ice cream tasted like regular ice cream and lacked the rich, creamy flavor of authentic Italian gelato.

    Coconut gelato

    Yum! I was hooked on the coconut gelato here--had it every day during my visit last month. It was that good! I'm craving it just thinking about it. If you're in Maui, definitely stop by this spot in Whalers Village. The line gets long at night, but it's totally worth the wait. Thank you.

    coffee crunch gelato
    Jade G.

    the service was amazing; the lady who serviced me was nice and patient. the flavor i got was coffee crunch (i think) and it was so strong and flavorful. the dark chocolate isn't the best in ice cream but it didn't ruin the flavor. perfect while walking around.

    Tiramisu

    Very cute spot and usaully a mainstay for me. The ice cream selection is always good. The service is always friendly and offers a chance to taste a flavor before committing to it. I have visited this spot all of my visit's to Maui. It has become a staple for me and one of 3 reasons to make my way to Whaler Village. Fun fact, I'm Italian only by blood and I don't like Tiramisu but I most definitelty loved the Tiramisu flavor I got this last visit. Yes, I am aware they vastly different in direct comparison but I can at least some what accept my heritage!

    The ice cream here is really good! Samples were not available (due to COVID?) so we went by our gut. I got a double cone with Salted Caramel and Sandy Beach. My daughter got a double cone with Salted Caramel and Coffee Crunch. My friend got a double cone with Salted Caramel and Tiramisu. We were very happy with our selections. The Salted Caramel went really well with the 3 different flavors, and they were all yummy! It was cool out, yet we noticed our ice cream melted rather quickly. The flavor was there, but the consistency was off somehow... The service wasn't bad. There was a long line, but because they did not provide samples, the line moved pretty fast.

    Coming off a snorkel trip. Great little refresher. Had a sandy beach (peanut butter ++) and Craig had salted caramel. Nice service. Had some cute Made in Maui merch for sale.

    Strawberry and coconut - Non-dairy
    Bruski N.

    They should change the name to OH NO GELATO because everything I asked for is a NO. I'm lactose-intolerant and wanted to sample a few of the non-dairy flavors (coconut, strawberry, etc.) that they have but the "not so friendly" counter girl pointed at a sign and said, "We don't give out tasters". How do you not give out tasters if you are trying to sell gelato or ice cream? It doesn't cost you anything and you quadruple your sales when you do this. Also, how do people know if your products are good or not if they don't get to taste it? Maybe, they are not as good and they don't want you to try them. I ended up buying the coconut and strawberry flavors because my wife didn't want me to cause a scene and I have been wanting to find a non-dairy gelato in Maui. The gelato was decent but their business practices and rude staff turned us off and we will never be coming back. They also have another sign that they will not validate your parking ticket unless you buy more than $15.

    We came here closer to closing, and the lady running the stand said she has been busy since opening! She has been serving people for hours on end, and we wished her a rest while we chose our order. I got Coconut Sorbet with Cheesecake, and my partner got Mango Sorbet with Tiramisu. It was delicious. The gelato was so fresh and flavorful! There was no artificial taste, and it was just the right amount of sweetness. The gelato did melt fast, but the flavor and texture were delightful. I enjoyed this gelato so much, and we tipped the worker significantly more for all of her hard work! Please come and support this place more

    Don't make the mistake we ALMOST made!…read more We arrived at the little shop, got our little free sample, looked through the window at the chocolate making machine, and were about to make our purchases and depart. Then something caught our eye about tastings upstairs. So up we went. Fabulous breezy little open air bar with plenty of seating and a view! A full menu of drinks and nibbles, and a gazillion ways to pair chocolate and alcohol. Our server Carrie was fun and friendly and knowledgable, and took great care of us. Mr. M and I each had a glass of red with our chocolate pairings, and our companions tried the port and liquor pairings. So much fun and so delicious. What a lovely way to spend some time.

    Im leaving 3 stars just based on the customer service from upstairs. We didn't partake in the tour…read moreas we had littles with us under 3 and figured we could at least do the "build your own brownie" for the crew. Well, it would've been fine had our entire table received their order. The brownie was not good. The build your own brownie "experience" was lacking. Only brownie and ice cream was included. At least give a topping included, then up-charge for more. On top of that, the $1.50 for sprinkles was a disgrace when the kid didn't get even $.10 worth. There was a tad confusion around the alcohol as well. Understand there's permit restrictions but it would've been nice to know when placing the order instead of when the drink was delivered. Signage isn't clear either. The "only 21 and over past this point" should have a blurb about no alcohol in the main seating. Oh well, we worked with it. Oh, and the sweat that dripped into the ladies plate who was doing the tasting experience was gross - even she said something and got attitude back from the upstairs hosts. Again, three stars awarded as we didn't really partake in anything outside of the cafe top level. Giving the benefit of the doubt the rest of the experience would've probably been good.

    Pricey $$$$ We ordered the Alfredo gnocchi and the porchini…read moremushroom pasta special. Really good...I will definitely be thinking about these rich alfredo gnocchi. Tgey have the absolute best texture I have ever had woth gnocci. I reccomend adding a vegetable or mushroom to break up the richness. The mushroom pasta was also tasty. Lots of big mushroom flavor. Rich in a good way. Rich foods are so filling. Good service. Sat outside in a small cramped tiny 2 top table but worth it.

    I loved Qiana and Michele's story of resilience, being the first restaurant to open after the 2023…read morefires, and I expected my family and I to have a wonderful experience for dinner last night. But we didn't. And it was due to logistical decisions made by staff. Let me explain... We had a 7:15pm reservation but arrived to a large crowd waiting out front and no one at the hostess stand. We were able to check in closer to 7:30. I felt assured when Qiana politely told an impatient patron that she had to seat those with reservations first. But that party of four, and others, were seated before us. After 40+ minutes waiting, Qiana apologized for a table that was lingering and asked if we wanted to wait for a table upstairs or be seated on the crowded lanai (with several young children) or wait a bit for a table upstairs. I chose upstairs. We waited for that lingering party to depart; no one left. Then 15-20 minutes later, we were seated upstairs. That was one hour after our reservation at 8:15pm. The logistical decisions and bad luck continued because there was a large party of ~10 also seated upstairs and they took priority over us. Our entrees arrived 45 minutes later (9pm by now). By this time, my family was very hungry and a little mad at the situation. I felt disrespected for the circumstances. The staff was nice, but actions were speaking louder than words. I usually rave about food in my reviews, but the long wait and how situations were handled (there were more I'm not describing) colored our special evening out and how the bites were received. Our evening at Sale Pepe turned out to be a low light, instead of the highlight I expected, from our Maui holiday.
