BEST FOOD ON MAUI | WITHOUT A RESERVATION!!

[@chuckvossler9010]

Blake - Thanks so much for this video! Went to Maui - had no idea we needed reservations nearly everywhere. Missed a few places I had wanted to go. This vid was a lifesaver. Ended up trying a few on your list - especially liked Down the Hatch & Leoda's. Also thanks for taking some great photos for us for our sunset photoshoot. Maui is lucky to have you!

[@BKRVlogs]

Big mahalos to you Chuck! I really appreciate your support! Happy you liked your photos!

[@AgustinSantiensanio]

Its usually on weekends where reservations are absolutely required, but during weekdays it can either be quick seating or just about a half hour wait, it is long but patience is key

Bra how you liking maui? Lived in maui for a bit . Wish I could go back to maui since I'm back I n cali again

[@JavnuteeGaming]

@@BraddaMarlon I love Maui. I lived there from 3 yrs to 25 yrs old. I live in SoCal now and wish I was back home on the Westside

I disliked Gazebo very much. Super over rated. California has much better brunch food.

[@cambry2115]

@@ting1565 what did you not like about it

[@ting1565]

@@cambry2115 we waited an hour for our table, there were birds flying around everywhere and the staff barely cleaned the tables, the food was sooooo mediocre (I can make better breakfast food). It was ultimately so dirty and the food was meh. Not worth an hour wait time and not worth the money!

Best cinnamon roll I've ever had in my life is Cinnamon Roll Place in Kihei. AMAZING!! Their mango bread was also so delicious!

[@beckytribett4021]

My family agrees! Best cinnamon roll ever-it’s life changing, haha!!

[@AJanae.]

I’ve been to three islands and was never let down by a cinnamon roll

[@H..M..]

I was psyched you mentioned Okazuya. I have recommended that place to everyone who goes to Maui. We love that place. The last day on our last trip, we cancelled our plans and just hung out on the beach, got a couple of Maui onion burgers, and chilled. It was the best day ever. We’ve also been to Down the Hatch and Monkeypod. Great video! You nailed some real gems, and gave me some ideas for our next trip.

[@kjpc121]

I grew up on The Gazebo, the smell that comes from there is forever in my memories.

[@JohnSmith-sj7io]

I went to cool cats last year on my visit. For sure going back this year. The western burger was to die for.

[@EBColeman478]

Excellent video. My wife and I just got back from Maui this week and your video was super helpful.

[@chrismarcotte4241]

Love your videos! We stay twice a year for a total of 2 months!!! You have changed my mind about eating at food trucks!!!!!

[@BKRVlogs]

Yay stoked on that! I believe the best food can be found there!

[@kimschneider8275]

Da Kitchen is super good too! So glad they were able to open back up. Great local grub!

[@MMAfight420]

My gf and I are in Maui right now. And Blake does NOT disappoint! So far we are on day 2 and we’ve already tried 3 different places from his videos. Every one of them has been beyond amazing! If you’re coming to Maui soon definitely watch his videos and any of the suggestions will be amazing! Mahalo 🤙🏽

[@soniaocasio-almonte7146]

Thank you for this, I made sure to make my list. Going again for my 3rd time & food is always an issue. The Wharf dies have great food. We love it!

[@billswarthout8679]

Blake, my wife and I head out there in ten days. We are planning on visiting four of the islands during our two weeks there. We have watched all your videos. Thank you for sharing. Very informative!

You have the best Maui video bro. Respect for repping your community so hard.

[@spongesurf12]

We are here now and will be trying some of these for sure! Thanks for the info.

[@remieiting1911]

hey I'm born and raised here on Maui so I got to share, my favorite pastry place is stillwells above Baldwin school right next to this ukulele shop. THE best cream horns and they do really good lunch too. Pretty close to there is made in hope those acai bowls changed my life. you got to go if you havent ,

[@user-di8vz5ec1i]

Thank you!

I've lived here since the 90's and I've just forgotten all these great new and old places to grind. Mahalo for opening my eyes again. I'm so hungry now!

[@leseris08]

Blake - Our second trip to Maui from the Bay Area! Thanks so much for the detailed info for the food places.

[@gretchengardner3538]

We just got home from Maui. The hyatt regency was amazing. Mama’s Fish house was so good and I don’t eat fish. Whalers village was fun to walk up too. Monkey pod was good and hulla grill. Cool cats was fun.

[@janabudke2077]

We just got back from Maui and loved many of the places you mentioned but didn’t know about some of them. Now we have something to look forward to on our next trip! Coconut’s Fish Cafe in Kihei was amazing. We ate breakfast at Kihei Caffe twice. Both places typically have a line, but they move fast and so worth the wait!

[@cole_mcpherson]

Dude thank you!!! I just get here from Vancouver Canada and I'm going to try all these places you suggested!!!!

[@meganem32]

This was so helpful. I’ve been to Maui dozens of times and I thought I knew most of the restaurants but there are some great ones I’m going to try on my next trip! Thanks!

[@redballoonie]

Great information. We own a place a Napili Point…have been to many of the restaurants you mention. All good. Especially appreciate your message about using Reef Safe Sunscreen.

[@ronbrandich4196]

Aloha! We have been to MAUI three times and absolutely LOVE Maui out of all the Hawaiian Islands! 2 of the 3 trips we were in Lahaina on Oct. 31st for the Mardi Gras of the Pacific! We were staying in Kihei as we have friends that own a condo there. It's also time to return too! Our First trip we drove, HONEST TO GOD, 1,200 miles on Maui in two weeks! We went everywhere and some places 2 or 3 times! Yes we drove to Hana twice and also to the top of Haleakala twice too! We felt like Ohana and the desire to go back is very strong as we felt the "SPIRIT" of the Island. OH.....I also LOVED the "FRESH" made Poi too....Yummy! Aloha and Mahalo for this Great Video!!

[@angeldee7287]

WOW! This is the B E S T video! I love Maui! Thank you for this 🤙🏼😊🤙🏼

I definitely loved a few of these places when I was there in 2019 and cannot wait to check out some of the others when I'm there in April. Surprised though you don't have Kihei café on your list.

[@tinalee-rodriguez2267]

Aloha Blake! Thank you for the recommendations! My husband I love Maui and can't wait to return! In Nov. 2019, got to experience Down the Hatch's Lobster Crab Grilled Cheese...it was amazing! May 2021, bucket list highlight for me was Mama's Fish House on Mother's Day, an experience I will never forget. It's a reservation restaurant, but I thought I would give a shot out anyways. The view, the food, the service, and our waiter, Nicholas, who was born and raised in Maui was unforgettable! Loved the Polynesian Black Pearl for dessert...almost too pretty to eat...but of course I did. Stayed in Kihei first trip and in Kahana this past May. Looking forward to trying Gazebo for breakfast! Mahalo!

Yes! Great vid! And thank you for the info about reef safe sunscreen! As a mainlander going to visit Maui soon, (after 30 years!)
