    Chicago dog + bacon ranch dog
    Maria P.

    Head down Makawao Ave. in Upcountry Maui and spot the little food stand with wooden beams and a tin roof - reminiscent of those days gone by. That there is Road Dogs; a little, new-ish food stand located at the Makawao Marketplace, just down the street from Komoda Bakery. They're one of a handful of food vendors in this little lot and have a good-sized menu of hot dogs, chili, shave ice, fresh squeezed lemonade, and sometimes some t-shirts and hats. I've tried the Chicago Dog and the Bacon Ranch Dog which come in a foil 'boat' and are loaded with banana peppers. It's not a big, grand, culinary experience, but simple, flavorful, and both were tasty. I don't normally eat banana peppers, but was pleasantly surprised I found they went really well with the hot dogs. We've been a few times now and their hot dogs are a nice quick snack during our visits to Makawao town and reasonably priced. They are your standard sized hot dogs so if you've got a big appetite, you may want to pick-up a few.

    Bacon Ranch Dog with Mango Lemonade
    Doug J.

    Looking for an inexpensive break from fish tacos or Huli chicken? Road Dogs was a great stop for a quick hot dog and a tasty mango lemonade. For the price it's probably a five star stop but of course a localtmade bun from the Komodo Bakery or a higher quality hot dog/sausage would have jacked the price so I am happy with my Bacon Ranch Dog for $7. The bun was steamed, nice touch, the bacon bits plentiful and tasted like real bacon not dried bits from a bag and the cook placed them carefully under the dog to keep them in place when you took a bite. The peppercini and ranch sauce were good compliment to the whole thing. Like I said the quality for the money was great. The mango lemonade was awesome.

    Best Lemonade around! Add some strawberry syrup for a very refreshing treat on a hot day!

    I had the chili dog and it did not disappoint whatsoever. The service was very friendly and the aesthetic was very nice.

    We first tried Manuela's malasadas when they had a spot at the 76 gas station in Lahaina. We made…read moretwo visits at their new location at 22 Alahele Pl, Kihei, HI 96753 during this recent Sept 2026 trip. We probably would've gone more if we weren't so full from all the other good eats on the island. On our 1st visit, we ordered Ube cheesecake, cookie butter & Bavarian cream. All were delicious but Ube was our fave. So on our 2nd visit, we ordered Ube (again), crème brûlée & peanut butter cup. Again, it was all so good. Sabrina & John were super friendly. They interacted with their customers with so much aloha. It was also Sabrina's birthday one of the days we came by so she shared extra malasadas & even gave me a rose from her birthday bouquet. How sweet was that?! When you have delicious items plus great service, that would make you want to keep supporting the business.

    Manuela's has the best malasadas on Maui, hands down. I first tried them when she was across from…read moreCostco. I tracked her down to her new location on the west side of the "food paradise" in Kihei. They are sold in 3's. They are made to order and you select the sugar and filling on each one. This is incredible customer service. Each malasada is large and filling and the fillings are delectable. There are tables nearby, but I usually take them home to enjoy while watching my Dodger games. Do not miss out on this treat when you visit Maui. If I'm 3 bills by winter, this will be why! Just in time for whale season!

    (5/5) Stumbled…read moreacross Ono Taco Truck and immediately knew it was about to be legit. You can just feel it--and yes, confirmed: actual Mexican folks running the place, so you already know the food isn't playing around. Everything was insanely tasty and felt super authentic. Like the kind of tacos that make you pause mid-bite and rethink every other taco you've had before. Bonus points for the sauce bar--lowkey my favorite part. Nothing like standing there debating life decisions while trying every salsa like you're on a flavor quest. Easy 5 stars. I'd come back again and again... and probably embarrass myself at the sauce bar every single time. Service took a little while because there's only one guy cooking but it was well worth the wait.

The car rental company receptionist recommended this area of food trucks to check out since it was close by. It was about a 15 minute drive to the food trucks. Our friends said they've tried Ono Tacos before in Lahaina. They said that the tacos they had were good! I was in the mood for tacos so I ordered one Al Pastor "Pork" taco and the Shredded Beef Birria tacos. They were both very tasty and I would say "on par" with tacos I've had on the mainland! I would go back again the next time I'm in Maui.
