    Pea pappardelle

    Delicious food with a peaceful ambiance. We watched the sunset on the terrace while we are the pea pappardelle, Wagyu Ragu gnocchi, and jalapeño mocktail. Friendly, delicious, highly recommend.

    "Truly a spectacular meal celebrating our 44th anniversary. Andrea was an informed engaging waitress and all her suggestions spot on. Kudos to Connor her assistant as well. Our meal was phenomenal! I had wagyu sirloin which was superb. Seasoning amazing. The Hearth Bake Bread was wonderful. My husband had the special with lobster added to it - Thai style Pineapple Coconut Red Curry with Kona lobster- not to be missed. Finishing up a nice bottle of wine with POG soufflé - another special. Thank yo

    This restaurant is fantastic. One of the best service experiences I've ever had. The waiter and bus team went above and beyond. We came on valentines day, the weather was nice and we sat outside. They had a prix fixe menu which was very good. I think for the price and portions very good gets 4* though part of me wants to give 5* because of the service and ambiance. A true 4.5 I guess. Would recommend, would go back, would try different menu items.

    We had a great experience at Spago's. Yeah, it was expensive dinner and I know most folks won't want to use their dollars for $100 bottles of wine (low end) and $95 plates. This is definitely an experience for a special occasion. We saved money to have this dinner because it was important to us. We paid the cost of four dinner dates. It was worth it for us. No photo for our appetizer. I forgot about it. Our steak and fish dinners were amazing. We received three desserts. Two were complimentary and one we purchased. Service was top tier. And the ambiance was unforgettable. Our view was amazing and we watched the sunset while eating. (I created a collection of all the restaurants we visited on Maui from fine dining to food trucks and all in between.)

    Food was amazing! The staff were not. The 3 stars Is only to reflect the treatment from Staff. The 2 young front desk workers were very unwelcoming. Tried to prove we had no reservation. Said they found it but it was for 3 days later, and currently had no space. We obviously see a lot of tables available. I showed my phone confirmation, but they said we are now 8 mins too late. Did another reservation in front of their faces. They didn't expect another available spot, so they made me wait an additional 15 mins longer than my new reservation time. The waiter - David with the Shirley temple curls was decent AFTER realizing we actually had money to spend. I noticed we didn't fit the color of the restaurant... after people in the restaurant saying how we looked so Hawaiian / local, fees like they sure try to keep our look out. Ugly America displayed in my favorite Chef's restaurant. We'll continue visiting other Wolfgang locations, but this one is definitely a prejudice feeling spot. Definitely ruined my night. Hard to enjoy my dinner after feeling so unwelcomed. I didn't want to leave after already tipping the Valet parking only at the 4 seasons. Wolfgang recipes are always next level though, no doubt.

    Spago is an LA establishment known for founding Michelin star worthy food within the city, perhaps even the state. Thus, for visitors to Maui and especially those from California, Spago is a familiar sight. Located in the Four Seasons hotel where the first season of White Lotus was filmed, there is certainly plenty of fun of enjoying this location whether visiting the hotel or staying in it. When it comes to Spago Maui, it is certainly a much less formal version of its sister restaurant in California and presents a tropical vibe. It is not focused on multi course dining experiences or meticulous details, while the service is relaxed, albeit friendly while still being attentive. Presentation of dishes is also simple, while portions are fairly generous. Spago Maui is not about pushing the boundaries of creativity, but rather focuses on pleasure of food. Thus, it is important to arrive to Spago with the right expectations that this is not a dining experience that would typically land any Michelin stars, but is more centric around comforting dishes in a tropical atmosphere. Dishes like Asian style steamed fish with bok choy are remarkably satisfying. Curried catch of the day is amazing. Rolls are constructed attentively. Pavlova was sadly extremely over-sweetened, so maybe skip the dessert. The wine list is impressive with an amazing sommelier on site from Wolfgang Puck's sister restaurant in Vegas. So, order what looks most pleasing at the moment, chat with the somm and enjoy the sunset.

    Culinary Review: Spago Maui Dining at Spago Maui strikes an impressive balance between refined culinary execution and the relaxed elegance that defines the island itself. While the restaurant certainly delivers the caliber of cuisine expected from a Wolfgang Puck establishment, the experience feels refreshingly unpretentious--elevated without ever becoming stiff or overly formal. From the moment we arrived, the service set the tone for the evening. Manager Danny made a point to check on our table several times throughout the evening, ensuring everything was running smoothly, while our waitress Emma delivered truly exceptional service. She was attentive without hovering, knowledgeable about the menu, and warm in a way that felt genuine rather than rehearsed. An additional staff member--whose name I unfortunately did not catch--noticed an opportunity to enhance our experience and moved us to a table with a better view. It was a thoughtful gesture that was not requested but deeply appreciated, and I regret not getting his name to recognize him properly. Small acts like that demonstrate an attentiveness to guest experience that goes beyond routine service. The bartender also deserves recognition. The drinks were prepared beautifully, and the individual who crafted them was equally kind and welcoming. It added another layer to an already enjoyable evening. What stood out most throughout the restaurant was the atmosphere among the staff: every single person seemed to be smiling and genuinely happy to be there. In hospitality, that level of morale is rare and speaks volumes about the culture of the restaurant. The culinary execution was equally memorable. I ordered the New York strip steak cooked medium, and the kitchen delivered it flawlessly. Achieving a true medium without scorching the exterior is not always easy, but Spago's chefs managed it perfectly--the steak was evenly cooked, beautifully tender, and expertly seasoned. Our meal began with bluefin tuna, shishito peppers, and mushrooms, which turned out to be the highlights of the evening for both my wife and me. The tuna was exceptionally fresh and clean in flavor, while the peppers and mushrooms offered a satisfying contrast of texture and savory depth. These dishes were simple yet refined, allowing the ingredients to shine. We also tried the Thai-style seafood coconut curry. While the dish was well-prepared and flavorful, it leaned slightly too sweet for my preference. That said, the seafood itself was fresh and well cooked, and the dish remained enjoyable despite the sweetness. Our drinks complemented the meal nicely: a classic Arnold Palmer, a crisp Prosecco, and a glass of ice wine to finish the evening. To close the evening, the kitchen surprised us with a birthday dessert--a generous gesture that added a thoughtful personal touch to the experience. The Basque cheesecake was outstanding, with its signature caramelized exterior and luxuriously creamy interior. Alongside it came a beautifully prepared profiterole that provided the perfect contrast of textures: light choux pastry, rich filling, and indulgent sweetness. Overall, Spago Maui succeeds in delivering a high-end dining experience that still feels distinctly Hawaiian--relaxed, welcoming, and joyful. Excellent service, thoughtfully executed dishes, and a team that clearly enjoys what they do make this restaurant stand out even in Maui's competitive dining scene.

    Hand Cut Tagliatelle Pasta with Local Mushrooms
    Berna G.

    Spago Maui was the perfect choice for a special dinner during vacation. The beachfront views were incredible, it made the entire experience feel extra luxurious. The menu has a great variety of seafood, pasta, and Asian fusion dishes. Our server also let us know of some off-menu items and chef specials. We ordered a number of things and our server arranged them in a way that would be best enjoyed- from starters to small plates to our main course. Just about everything we got was a standout dish, but I especially loved the Hand Cut Tagliatelle Pasta with Local Mushrooms. The complimentary focaccia also deserves a mention. I also *needed* to try Wolfgang Puck's signature smoked salmon pizza topped with Kaluga's Caviar. The NY steak was cooked to a perfect medium and had a yummy homemade steak sauce too. We ended the night with their ice cream and espressos for the drive back to our hotel.

    Lobster Ceviche
    Adam D.

    This was a really great experience. We have been here before but it didn't really stand out. This time, the food was on point. Every dish in fact. The wait staff were very attentive and friendly. The waiter was very engaging too. The ambiance is hard to beat. We were able to sit outside this time which was special.

    Omg, I live this Spago's!! Locally sourced Ed provisions from vegetables, fruits and proteins combine with Island tastes and Wolfgang's culinary flare. We had the Kona lobster ceviche with green papaya appetizer- omg, delicious and so fresh! Salads and soups delicious and so many appealing main dishes. Hubs got the special seafood cioppino- he first thought it was a small portion, but with the accoutrements and sauces, with the delicious Thai broth, he was satisfied! I had the home made tagliatelle with local mushrooms, delicious! Dave room for their fabulous desserts. Service is impeccable as are the views and ambiance.

    Is outside wine allowed and if so what is the corkage fee?

    Yes, $65 per bottle but only two are allowed but if you have a magnum it's $160 I believe

    Is there a kids menu?

    Yes they have one

    Do they have happy hour?

    No, but they offer kamaaina with two forms of Hawaii I.D. Only on food!

    Would khaki shorts and a button down shirt or collared polo shirt be appropriate dress wise?

    Yes! That's what my BF wore most nights we went. Very Hawaii dress up, which is casual

    Best sushi of our sushi snob lives! Over the years, we've…read moreturned into Sushi snobs. Not only that, but we nearly always have to get the Omakase ("Leave it to the chef") wherever we go. Until we came to Oao, our favorite had been Nobu, down the road in Wailea. Well, I am here to tell you that, hands-down, there is a new gold medalist in town! The quality, presentation and taste--every single course--knocked it out of the ballpark! And, much to our surprise, the last Main course of Wagyu beef was a veritable grand slam! We came for the Sushi, but never in my life have i tasted such heavenly steak! The exceptionally aloha-friendly staff, such as Ronson and Iggy, were above and beyond helpful. Add to my snobbery my pallet for a good sake. Well, Iggy was able to steer me to an exceptionally perfect Daiginzo brew to complement our Omakase feast of the evening. Be sure to include an order of mussels, and you can't go wrong with anything Hamachi, such as the carpaccio. The atmosphere is somewhat traditional sushi bar, with an aloha flair. It is not very spacious, and will fill up in both guests and noise. Tune those out and you'll be fine. By the way, be sure to make reservations! A Word of warning, this is a sushi bar in the heart of Maui, and is it priced accordingly. That said, it is well, well worth the splurge!

    The food and drinks are amazing, the service was phenomenal, and the ambiance is great!…read more For starters definitely recommend the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio, Morimoto Sashimi, and the Octopus Sashimi for starters. The pork Gyoza, sticky ribs were a hit with everyone (even the kids). You always have to order the shisoto Peppers! For mains, the braised black cod, the ribeye steak, the duck fried rice, and the A5 Ishiyaki Bur Bap is a must! I mean he did win with this dish! Important to note, this restaurant is Located on the lower pool level of the Andaz Maui. If you are dining with someone with mobility issues, there are a few stairs.

    Long post: starts with below expectations, and it finishes with highlights…read more We had a highly anticipated dinner last night at Morimoto Maui, and I think that Iron Chef Morimoto would be as disappointed as we were -- if not more so. We opted for the Omakake (Tasting) Menu along with the Wine Pairing for each course. We knew it would be expensive (prices intentionally deleted), but we felt it would be a wonderful experience. We have eaten at Morimoto at Sea on several Holland America Line ships, including our recent cruise on HAL's Nieuw Amsterdam that has a dedicated Morimoto Restaurant mid-ship on deck 11 -- those meals have always been fantastic. Back to last night. Disappointment #1 -- The wine for the first course arrived 5 minutes before Course 1, the Toro Tartare. The wine had lost most of its coolness, and intended flavor and aroma, by time the dish arrived. Disappointment #2 -- The Intermezzo dish, the Sudachi cucumber sorbet was a bit sour. Other intermezzi that I have had were a slightly sweet, perhaps lime or lemon sorbet. AND they typically were paired with a splash of champagne or a sparkling brut (why not include the Morimoto Dream Rosè?) Disappointment #3 -- Course 5, the Surf & Turf, was bad! The very small portion of the Wagyu beef was Medium Well to Well Done and appeared to have been burnt over a flame. When we told our server, his comment was, "That's why I recommended the Japanese A5 Wagyu [at an additional $80 per person!]." Sorry burnt beef if burnt beef, no matter what the price. Training/Expectations seem low: Where do they get their water glasses? On the discount table at Walmart? These two are different styles on the same table; at least our two were the same style, although different from those two. And the dessert spoons -- two different styles given to us. I expect (and I am sure others also do) a much higher standard at this famous Iron Chef restaurant. DELIGHTS: Course 1 - The Toro Tartare was so tasty. We are used to a tartare to be chopped, perhaps even finely chopped, but this one was made into a puree. The toppings (caviar and rice crackers were tasty, and the rice crackers looked like little sweet ice cream toppings. Course 2 - Red Snapper Carpaccio was liked by someone who does not normally like raw fish. The light sauce added a subtle dash of flavor, and we were able to roll the pieces with chop sticks and heat an entire price at once. Course 3 - Lobster Takoyaki. The three "lobster balls" were served warm, and they were very tasty. A large piece of lobster in each roll was a true delight. Course 4 - Sushi. The 5 pieces of nigiri were Chu Toro, Hamachi, Salmon, Campachi, and Big Eye Tuna. There was a light smear of wasabi between the fish and the rice; I had already asked for more (and hotter) wasabi that I mixed with the soy sauce. We brought a few pieces of the sushi back to the condo for a later snack. Course 6 -- the dessert was so-so in my opinion. Sharon liked it, so it was probably just my tastebuds and not the actual dessert. We had planned to go back to Morimoto Maui next week for a special Wagyu and Wine pairing, but based on last night's Wagyu failure, we have cancelled the reservation. I hope that our next dinner at a stateside Morimoto restaurant (probably Morimoto Napa in 4 weeks) is a much better experience for us.

The quesadilla was still amazing and the kalua pork nachos were good too. Everything else has 98% room for improvement - structurally, professionally, beverages, everything.
