    I am so glad I got to try this place! From the moment you walk up, the vibes are immaculate. The cart is super clean and the theme is adorable!!! Service was really friendly and patient. This is such a yummy treat without being overly sweet! Love the pieces of fruit infused with the soft serve. It was delicious and refreshing. Would definitely come back!!

    Super cute little spot! We came on a Friday evening and it was pretty busy. It was a one woman shop that day so definitely be patient. The lady working when we visited was so sweet. We got the coconut base, per recommendation even though we're not vegan, and the triple berry mix in and it was delicious.

    Yummy ice cream! It's very light and refreshing on a hot summer day. They offer a variety of fruit combinations with two base choices: coconut or vanilla. We opted for all three with vanilla base, so I'm not sure how the coconut ones taste. We absolutely loved the vanilla ones and the flavor of the fruit in them.

    It was my first time trying this and I enjoyed it. The ice cream is made with real fruit as you're able to choose up to 3 fruits and they add it to the ice cream you choose (vanilla or coconut), which gets processed through the machine they have. I chose mango, triple berry, and pineapple. It's a food truck run by 1 lady (at least when I went) in a food truck park (parking lot). There's a table outside the truck you can sit at. She was nice to explain how it works. She recommends the bigger size if sharing. We chose the smaller size. She had a bit of trouble getting the ice cream to come out of the machine, maybe because of my fruit choice causing the density to be too thick. As a result, the end product looked nothing like the pictures on social and looked like there was not much ice cream at all. After she gave me the ice cream, she was scooping the remains of the ice cream stuck in the machine screw and discarded it which she could have given to me. I felt skimped on. It's expensive (overpriced) for the amount you get. But that's Hawaii for you.

    Absolutely spectacular ice cream! You'd be missing out not to stop here. Favorite combo was mango and raspberry with waffle cone mixed in. The blackberry with waffle cone was a close second. Hard to beat this!! Ask if they have their homegrown lilikoi off their secret menu! Mahalo Connor, we'll be back!!!

    Reef's Real Fruit Ice Cream is a welcome new treat spot in Kihei, bringing a taste of New Zealand-style ice cream to Maui. If you're not familiar, this style of ice cream blends a creamy base--vanilla or coconut, in this case--with your choice of fresh fruit, creating a swirl that's bright, flavorful, and made-to-order. You start by picking your size (keiki or nui), choose a cup or cone, then select your base before adding in the fruits you'd like mixed in. I went for the coconut (a dairy-free option) in a cone with mango and pineapple, which turned into a tropical, refreshing delight. It tasted much lighter than a vanilla ice cream and had bits of pineapple chunks in it. While it was good, I think I'd prefer it without the chunks and would probably choose something else in the future. My son ordered the vanilla base with blueberry and raspberry--sweet, tangy, and very refreshing. We both got the keiki size which I think was more than enough and would get the nui size if I was sharing with someone. You can also add extra toppings or mix-ins to customize your creation. Service was genuinely friendly, and the ice cream itself was fresh, vibrant, and the perfect cool-down after a long beach day. For anyone craving something unique yet island-inspired, Reef's is definitely worth a visit!

    Hands down the most delicious, refreshing, and creamy ice cream I have ever had. We were lucky enough to stop by before the crowds, but if there is a line it is worth the wait. Friendly staff and adorable decor & seating area.

    Super cute ice cream truck where you choose what fruits you want mixed into your vanilla or coconut ice cream! The folks working were super sweet and explained everything to us before we ordered. Small heads up that they don't clean the machines between orders so noticed the fruits definitely get mixed (just as a heads up for people with allergies! Maybe you can ask the to use a clean machine if you do!)

    Such a cool concept!! Have never seen this kind of icecream before and it did NOT disappoint. The truck is also sooo cute and clearly designed with love. all the staff are so kind and fun! I go all the time :) Blueberry mango vanilla is my current favorite combo

    After months of admiring this place on my phone, finally made it there! Upon walking up we got asked if we were new, so she explained to us how to order. I was happy to see that there was a dairy free option as the people I came with were lactose intolerant. You pick your size, cup or cone, choose your ice cream, pick your fruit (as many as you want), then pick your toppings or mix ins. Step on the side & watch your ice cream be made. I went with the coconut base, strawberry & mango, no mix ins. Wow, just wow!! So fresh & light! Perfect for a hot Kihei afternoon. The parts are changed out after each use, so its nice that you never get flavors of others ice cream mixed with yours. Everyone else I was with loved theirs as well. If you are in the area, go here, you won't regret it! I will be back on my next trip home, no doubt about it!

    Yummy coconut ice cream that is isn't your typical soft serve! You choose your base vanilla or coconut ice cream and three fruit choices and your mix ins--and THEN this is where the magic happens they swirl in the fruit and mix ins! At first I must admit I was a little thrown off, Idky I kept thinking that I'd have my base with the toppings on top or on the side...it took a minute to get past that mindset and when I did I was able to appreciate the process. Nice evening snack after walking:)

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!

I'm not sure I've had, or will have, a better meal on Maui. It was named one of the top local spots last year, and that recognition feels completely deserved. Set at the far end of South Maui Gardens, the outdoor seating gives it a relaxed but special ambiance. For our 30th anniversary, my wife and I shared the smoked tomahawk steak family-style, along with black garlic roasted rice, pickled carrots and onions, and a roasted vegetable medley with a beautiful spice mix. Every bite was outstanding -- perfectly cooked, deeply flavorful, and clearly crafted with intention. We finished with the lilikoi meringue pie, which was just as impressive and a perfect way to end the meal. Maui has some incredible dining experiences, and Kitoko stands comfortably among the very best -- food truck or not. If you're looking for a truly memorable dinner on the island, don't miss this one.

The truck itself is fun, painted with bright tropical colors and scenes, and they seem to be known for their loaded tots and bao buns. I placed my order on the touchscreen outside and then sat down to wait for my food. For lunch on this day I went with the buffalo chicken tots and the Island Piggy bao. The menu described the bao as kalua pork, BBQ sauce, tropical salsa, and pickled red onions. The buffalo chicken tots were described as buttermilk fried chicken, buffalo sauce, jack cheddar cheese, house made pickles, and ranch dressing. It took less than 10 minutes for my food to be ready and I sat down at one of the shaded picnic tables. When I opened everything up it all looked good, but I did notice that the tots were missing the house made pickles. I started with the bao and thought it was pretty good. The kalua pork was super juicy and the bao bun was light and fluffy while still holding together well. The pickled onions added a nice acidity and the tropical salsa brought good flavor. The only thing I did not notice much was the BBQ sauce. After that I dug into the tots. The tots themselves were cooked nicely with a crispy outside and soft inside. The chicken was good as well with a nice batter and the buffalo sauce added flavor while the cheese was gooey. The only thing worth noting is that the chicken was softer than expected and not very crispy. It worked since I did have the texture from the crispy tots, but it stood out. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I would probably not order both a bao and tots again as it was a lot of food, but I would definitely come back for one or the other.

Not like a garden you walk through with different plants and flowers. They have lots of things, though. There was a yoga session happening in the middle lawn area. They have a butterfly area, even though the butterflies were somewhere else. There is an aging tortoise, I forget his name. There are also different businesses in the buildings, like a spa and a salon. There are different small vendors with their booths and several food trucks; although, some were not open in the morning and the Thai food truck had all their items sold out on their menu already. The prices were even more pricier than the food trucks at Maui Food Trucks. One vendor had hand crafted desserts for $20/piece! I admired from afar, haha. Everything is advertised as "farm to table" maybe justifying their prices. We shared an acai bowl and it was mid. The the peanut butter was just scraped on the side of the bowl. Our typical acai bowls at least put the peanut/almond butter in the middle like any other topping so you can get an even bite with everything. But the dallop of peanut butter just on the side, it was like we ordered peanut butter on the side of our acai bowl. It was weird. I bet it's more alive at night with more food trucks open and live music. We came and saw and didn't come back. I can see how it can be great for families with toddlers running around, giving them a safe space to burn their energy. Until then, this probably won't be the top of our list.
