Lynn, Areg (exec Sous chef from LA), and Tetsu Yahagi (corp chef) made our dining experience amazing last night. We had a tasting menu with a wine/cocktail pairing. Everything was amazing from the specially made local fish dish by Tetsu the wagyu entree and the amazing macaroon chocolate banana dessert paired with a twist on an old fashion. Lynn did a fantastic job explaining the pairings and was very knowledgeable about each wine. We have enjoyed tasting menus from a number highly rated restaurants and our experience at Spago is right up there with the best of them! Lynn, Tetsu and Areg made a point to make our meal special and it really showed. read more

Spago is located in the Four Seasons. Ambiance is good but we expected a better view. we had made a reservation months in advance but tried to move it up and there was no availability. When we arrived most of the restaurant was empty. Service was fine. Food was good but nothing to write home about. I had the Ahi Tuna which was cooked well and my wife had the salmon which was the better of the two dishes. Not sure if the food justifies the insane prices. read more

Just a fantastic experience - save room for the chocolate soufflé. Gnocchi was outstanding

We had a nice dinner for two here. Overall the food and service was good. It's been a couple of weeks since our date and while I can't recall exactly what we had, the only item that stood out then and that we can remember now was the yam purée. It was almost like a dessert, yummy! read more

Spago - Crab cake - Asian Fusion Near Me - Maui, Hawaii

Loved it. Celebrated my partners birthday, our server, the food, and the ambiance was amazing. Looking forward to dining here in the future.

Beautiful view while we sat outside. We watched the sunset. Ah! Loved the ambience! Service was impeccable. I ordered the "Szechuan style" braised mahi mahi, came with shiitake mushrooms, gingered baby bok choy and jasmine rice. I asked for chopsticks because it didn't feel right eating Chinese food with a fork. They delivered. However, I wish I had ordered something else instead of "Chinese" food while in Maui... Muh bad. read more

Hands down the best meal of my life. We are in Maui for our honeymoon and went there last night. As soon as we walked in the hostess let us know we got the best table in the house and boy, was she right. I was in awe of the view. The cocktails: so fruity and fresh, it was like a delicious light fruit purée. Apps: We got the Ahi tuna cones-amazing, so much flavor. The focaccia bread was the fluffiest most delectable pie r a bread I've ever had. Entrees: I got the red curry and my husband got (and finished) the tomahawk steak. We were so pleased with our dinner, we have talked about it all day. read more

The service and ambience were great and it worth spending a special occasion like an wedding anniversary. Buy the foods. Poke with sesame corn was too sweet on the corn and too salty inside and the two main menu we ordered, pork chops and mahi- mahi with a crust top were based on a same sauce. The server should have pointed out that before ordering so we could avoid having two main menu with same sauce base. The crab cake was also problematic- I guess what the chef intended with its crab meat blended with coconut. But the texture and how it tasted was questionable. It lost a certain accentuation of the taste so I don't think I remember any impression about the crab cakes. Other than those, the recommended wine, ahi tuna ceviche and chocolate soufflé were amazing along with the excellent service throughout the whole dinner read more

Very disappointed. We arrived at 7:20 for a 7:30 reservation and were not seated until 7:45, although there were a number of available tables. Food was acceptable but service was not. We did not receive drinks until 8:30 and had to ask for bread. The experience was not worthy of the Four Seasons. read more

We decided to eat on-site as we were staying and didn't want to travel out one night. First, service was amazing. They were on it and hustling. It's super hot, they originally put us out front but Sun was beaming we asked to move and they were super accommodating. But the patio has no fans, for an upscale restaurant it was so hot as the sun came down and when food came bugs everywhere. They need above of table fans to keep the air moving. I don't mind to pay high price if atmosphere and food are amazing. We got the gnocchi to start and it was very yummy. Portion size was large for 2 ppl. They did bring out fresh bread and the onion bread was so soft and fresh. We got the tomahawk to split, it was ok. For $200 steak wasn't worth it. They out of rosemary which I hate and should be in the description as it's very strong. It was cooked well just lacked flavor imo. The potatoes that came with were to die for though. We did get the special meringue dessert and their pastry chef is phenomenal. It was out of this world! It was our anniversary so they wrote it on the dish and recognized (but it's clear they don't comp or do that for free). That's fine because they have a pastry chef. Honestly the dessert was the best thing we had. I struggled with the rating bc the cost is so high but the server was amazing and front and back end of meal was great. They just need to really update the air flow. read more

This and Nobu are the nicest restaurants I have been too. The cuisine is different but they are on the same level. I enjoyed the taro hash browns with the caviar and this was the first time I have seen and tried a5 Japanese waygu beef. It was an experience and it was much more smooth than traditional steak, almost like sashimi. Thai lobster was awesome and the drinks were well made. read more

12/21/18 Completely different experience than Spago in Las Vegas. Both outstanding, however. The setting at the Four Season's Hotel was breathtaking, especially at sunset. Our waiter was very attentive and greeted us by name. The Mai Tai was very good. The Indecent Exposure Had the heat I was looking for, but I was not a fan of the taste. Could have made a meal out of the bread and I'm not a big bread guy. The mushroom pasta appetizer had an incredible taste. The pork chop and chicken dishes were awesome, as well. They inadvertently pitched our leftovers, even though 1/2 of our entrees were not touched. Our waiter was extremely apologetic. He brought us two more mushroom appetizers and 5 brownie cookies to compensate. read more

If you're a "foodie" or desire to have a fulfilling meal you need to avoid this place. When you order a $36 lobster salad you expect a bowl filled with greens and a nice helping of lobster. What you get is four small chunks of lobster on a tea cup sized plate. You can barely believe what you're eyes are looking at! On top of the inadequate portion sizing is the fact that the food takes forever to come out and when it finally arrives it's subpar. My $85 steak was below what I'd expect from Outback or Sizzler (no offense to those chains). This was literally a two hour experience that you're not enjoying under any circumstances. I've never given a two star review but when you consider the cost versus the quality and throw in the ridiculously slow service you can't help but give it two stars. It honestly doesn't deserve any more than this. As I was composing this review the manager came over to apologize for the slow service and our apparent disappointment with everything. She was very apologetic, handled our criticism well and responded accordingly. Respect to her for helping end the evening on a more positive note. read more

They always say better late than never.... so here goes. My family and I went to Maui about a year ago and decided to go all out one night. We had a very nice terrace end table with spectacular views of the sunset. Took a lot of nice pictures. We had a big group so ordered a large variety of entrees. Some were really good and others were so so. Only thing I remember specifically were the "Spicy `Ahi Tuna "Poke" in Sesame-Miso Cones." WOW! The best I've ever had, and I try ahi tuna everything everywhere I go. That alone deserves 5 stars. I gave it a four because it is ridiculously expensive and my wife just remembers that she didn't like her dish. read more

I'm not sure I've had a meal that included a better view. I have had better meals however and many of them for a fraction of the price. I've had a handful of meals more costly than this one, but they were all considerably better. The service at Spagos is exceptional however. They are attentive and friendly. Even if the money weren't a consideration, I would recommend Roy's over this place. It's hard to beat the Four Seasons in Maui, but location and service aside, I don't think the food at Spagos is as exceptional as it should be. read more

Always an island favorite-but on our night, nothing more than average. Service was a bit spotty and the food was just OK. There were six of us and each ordered something different. After a few nights of seafood, I ordered the roasted pork. It was well over cooked and somewhat dry. Thanks to the sauce, it was a welcome companion. The pork also had an overly salt overtone which I did not particularly enjoy. Others thought their respective meals were just ok, again, nothing wildly over the top and nothing that was an absolute disaster. I do remember Spago for being something very special--and tonight lacked it in food quality and service. We'll visit again but without the confidence we once had after visiting there many years in a row. read more

The food was delicious. Also their focaccia maui onions was to die for. The best ever We ate at the bar because we couldn't get a table. Reservations are a month away but the bar was great. Service was excellent. read more

So fun. Started out stressful they were running behind. Once we got seated Jeb took over and gave us an amazing experience. What a pro. Food was amazing. Jeb was so funny, smooth and knew what we wanted. Thanks so much for a 10 out of 10 night. read more

Came here on our last night of our Honeymoon and had a great dinner with a beautiful view! This review is on the restaurant and dinner.... how I felt after dinner is a whole other story I will get to at the end of this review... Spago is a Wolfgang Puck restaurant so we had high expectations...and we were not disappointed! We had a table on the outskirts of the restaurant so we had a beautiful view of the ocean ( when you make a reservation, definitely ask for a table with a view ). The whole restaurant is open air though so almost every table has a good view of the ocean. The service was good...friendly and attentive. I ordered the Hawaiian pork chop with yams and my hubby ordered one of the fish entrees. Both were delicious!! For dessert I ordered some kind of chocolate cake and it was so rich, heavy and filling...but still really yummy. We had wine and champagne...it was all great. We had dinner around 8 and had to leave to go to the airport around 10 so when we were leaving I was SO full that I was miserable. We got to the airport and I was feeling worse and worse. I kept thinking it was just because I ate so much and so much rich food. Long story short, I threw up half of the way from Maui to LA on the plane, over the ocean for 5 hours. UGH. There is no worse place to be sick than at 1 AM on a flight over the ocean. So, not really sure if it was something I ate, or how much I ate or what...but it was terrible. So, I am choosing not to blame Spago because my meal and last night in Maui was amazing... I will take the blame :) If you are in Maui or staying at the Four Seasons make sure to go here for dinner one night! read more

Had a truly memorable meal at Spago Maui. My wife and I were in Hawaii on a vacation that coincided close enough to our two year anniversary, and I decided this was the spot to have our celebratory dinner. Spago is a name I'd heard before (and Wolfgang Puck of course) and it lives up to the hype here. First, the setting: a lovely outdoor patio with views over the water and Wailea beach. Tip: reserve around 6 and show up early to get a table overlooking the ocean at sundown. Sun sets early in Hawaii! And it is so worth it to fine early if it means watching the sunset as you sip a brilliantly creative cocktail. For drinks: Wife had a spicy jalapeño infused rum drink. I opted for their take on a classic old fashioned - both were done so well. Hats off to the bartender. Wine selection is incredible but frankly overpriced... the cocktails less so. The apps are really mains by any other name. We shared a playful Japanese style waygu (?) fish course that combined some great flavors of sesame and chili. Didn't want it to end! I had the classic ahi tuna entree, which was done to perfection. Wasabi mashed potatoes ideally complemented the perfectly cooked fish, glazed with a ginger reduction. My wife had a more innovative indian-style Mahi Mahi dish which was really good. Chutney on top of mahi mahi left me skeptical at first glance but.... I had several bites. Can't explain it - it just worked. For dessert they have a lot of local flavor. We opted for a banana ice cream baked in chocolate, which was unique and delicious. They were nice enough to write Happy Anniversary at the top which was of course a lovely touch. Which brings me to service. The make or break of any five star, $$$$ meal. I have had experiences that left a lot to be desired, delicious food notwithstanding. This was not one of them. The waiter and assistant staff were courteous and professional, not rushing us, but attentive. At one point I looked around for our waiter and had hardly turned around before one appeared - not ours, mind you, but able to see I was looking about for some assistance. That's so key when you're at a nice place. And so rare. Can't say enough good things, in sum. While the price tag is high (four drinks, app, two mains, dessert, and two cappuccinos ran us $300 with tip), for a special occasion meal this was a smashing success. Thank you, Spago! read more

Service is ok, but mostly didn't love the food. As a long time Spago Beverly Hills diner, I was surprised at how limited this menu is. Everything is vastly overpriced, and we actually enjoyed our meal at the other restaurant in the Four Seasons more. We had to ask for the Maui onion bread and dinner service was pretty slow. read more

This was the most romantic - and most expensive - meal my wife and I enjoyed on Maui last week. In fact, it was the only meal in which we did not include our kids, but we decided Spago would be the best place to have a meal to ourselves, and we were not disappointed. The food, service and decor / ambiance were all outstanding. Spago has a number of tables for two setup along the edge of the patio dining area, each of which is arranged so that the couple can sit enjoy the food and the view(s) side-by-side. We arrived just before opening and were seated at what was probably the choicest twosome table - closest to the ocean. I posted photos of views from the table (and other photos of food and wine we ordered). Based on other reviewers' recommendations (e.g., Lindsay Z. and Charles M.), we tried the Ahi Cones and Sweet & Sour Lettuce Wraps - both were delicious! We'd been eating a lot of seafood all week, and had plans to eat at Mama's Fish House the following night, so we decided to try some non-seafood entrees. The beef tenderloin and Chinois-style lamb were [also] both excellent. The wine list is extensive ... and expensive (I estimate markup of between 300% and 400%). We ordered the Two Hands 2004 Shiraz / Cabernet blend, "The Bull and the Bear", which went well with all of the items we ate, and was probably a bit below the median price for wines (at $113 / bottle). This was the most expensive meal we had on the island (and there were only two of us), but given that it was our only night to ourselves during this visit to Maui - our first visit, almost 20 years ago, was during our honeymoon - it was worth the splurge. read more

Experience was so sub par from start to finish. Want to specifically call out the hostess Angelina. She was rude and unapologetic about us having to wait 45 min after our reservation time to be seated. She was indifferent and had a terrible attitude. When we said we couldn't wait any longer, she laughed. Unbelievably terrible service. read more

Do you think you know Spago? Think again. They recently reopened with a whole new look and menu. The restaurant has a modern elegant feel with light colors and an air of spaciousness. As you walk in they have a glass display with their fresh fish and meats. They have some new cocktails on their menu and their wine list is quite extensive. Their menu was created to be served family style but the portions didn't seem like enough for that. We started with the Poisson Cru in a coconut and it was fresh and flavorful. Entrees were lamb and lobster. The lobster was sweet, succulent and tender. Very delicious. I didn't try the lamb but heard it was cooked to perfection and delicious. For dessert we had the tiramisu and it was nothing like traditional tiramisu. It was served in a sphere wrapped in chocolate with coffee ice cream. It was amazing. Even the man himself, Wolfgang was on hand to greet the guests. Would I recommend Spago? Yes most definitely, if your on island it's a must and a great food experience. read more

Beautiful views and truly great service. The bread basket was absolutely divine. But the rest was hit & miss. The purple yam purée served with the Mahi was fabulous, but the tiny bland piece of unseasoned fish was completely overwhelmed by a thick layer of roasted Macadamia nuts. Literally all you could taste was the nuts. Skip. The chicken was fine, could not taste the goat cheese it was prepared with but the skin was nice & crispy. Everything on the menu was SO overpriced, however there were little touches along the way that were incredibly memorable such as the kindness & efficiency of the gentleman who was a secondary staff member. The manager also, who came by to thank us for spending our evening at Spago was such a nice surprise. This is a 80% Asian menu, and we were not expecting this. We thought it would be more similar to the Spago we enjoyed in S CA; our fault for not researching the menu better prior to our visit. read more

We have been all over the island and keep coming back to Spago. The food is consistently great and service is first class. They are busy of course, but made it special for us time after time. Danny, the manager is a fine young man and we had a nice time discussing life. He is a keeper Mr. Puck. Most of the other places we have eaten at have been weak. There are a handful of other standouts on the island, but Spago is just fine with us. The Four Seasons venue is fantastic and interesting to explore as well. read more

I was never one to want to eat at the hotel restaurants because i'm more of a local, whole in the wall food type of person. I decided i wanted to do something special for a special occasion. I booked a reservation with Spago and they had no problem reserving a table for us. We were seated and greeted by an awesome server who knew the menu like the back of his hand. I have many food allergies and he made sure i would be well taken cared of. We skipped apps and went straight for dinner.. I got the chicken and I was allergic to what they usually serve it with, he had the chef whip up some special potatoes for me which i appreciated so much! The food was amazing! A lot of people say it is pricy but it is fine dining at a very expensive hotel... what do you expect? I believe it was all well worth it. Spago's helped me with asking this girl to be my girlfriend by providing the dessert with special writing on it. This was our official first date and the start to a new relationship. I am forever thankful for the workers who helped make it all happen! read more

Amazing dining experience with excellent service. We come annually and it is always wonderful!

I had very high expectations for the Wolfgang Punk chain. But somehow it was disappointing. The ahi poke cone was overwhelming sweet. And fish was over cooked and overwhelming sweet as well. The menu was heavenly Asian fusion. From Hong Kong style to Thai to Indian to Japanese. But it is apparently from someone who knows little about Asian food. Unfortunately the drink menu didn't match the food menu with any Asian influences except some low end Chinese and Japanese beers. The dessert was the worst part. Only a list of 5 different flavored ice creams and Home made cookie. First, ice cream DO not match Asian food. Second, it is just really NOT special. The service was tentative. Otherwise it will only deserves 1star read more

First real night out dining in Maui and Spago's delivered!!! The crispy, Mahi with the green curry appetizer was perfect for two. But the entrees were even more special!! The menu changes daily, but if they are offering the sashimi grade tuna and/or the Mahi and curry sauce...don't think! Jump at both!! And if you're lucky to get Kainoa as your server, your experience will be even better. Just ignore the final price tag. Can't give it 7 stars so I'll only give it 5. read more
