⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Masterpiece in Wailea
If you are looking for the absolute pinnacle of dining on Maui, Spago at the Four Seasons is it. From the moment we stepped into the open-air dining room, we knew we were in for something special. The combination of Wolfgang Puck’s legendary California-Asian fusion and the fresh, vibrant spirit of Hawaii is nothing short of magic.
The Service: Pure "Aloha" Professionalism
I cannot say enough about the staff. The service here isn't just "good"—it is world-class. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through the wine list and the daily specials with genuine passion.
What stood out most was the attentiveness without being intrusive. They seemed to anticipate every need, from refreshing our drinks at the perfect moment to the tableside deboning of the fresh fish, which was handled with the precision of an art form. It’s clear that the team here operates at a level of excellence that matches the Four Seasons’ five-star reputation.
The Food: A Culinary Journey
Every dish that hit the table was a "wow" moment. We started with the iconic Spicy Ahi Poke Cones—the crunch of the sesame-miso cone against the buttery, spicy tuna is a texture and flavor explosion you simply have to experience.
For the main course, the Grilled Mahimahi with pineapple-ginger barbecue sauce was the highlight of the night. It tasted like Hawaii on a plate—fresh, sweet, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the Hand Cut Tagliatelle with Wagyu Ragout, which was incredibly rich and comforting. Even the bread service, featuring their signature onion focaccia, was addictive.
Pro-Tips for Your Visit:
• The View: Try to snag a reservation right before sunset. The view of the Pacific from the lanai is breathtaking and provides the perfect backdrop for your meal.
• Signature Sips: Don't skip the cocktails! The Haleakala Fire (tequila and jalapeño) is a must-try for anyone who likes a bit of heat.
• Save Room for Dessert: The Guava Pavlova is light, airy, and the perfect tropical finish.
Spago is definitely a "special occasion" splurge, but for the quality of food and the impeccable service, it is worth every penny. We will be dreaming about this meal until our next trip to Maui!
Recently, we dined at **Spago Maui**, located at the **Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea**. As regular guests, we wanted to share a few of our favorite dishes.
For appetizers, the Bigeye Ahi Poke Cones are a must—absolutely delicious.
For the main course, the Steamed Hawaiian Onaga, Hong Kong–style, served with stir-fried bok choy, chili oil, and jasmine rice, is exceptional—beautifully prepared and full of flavor. While this dish is prepared with various types of fish, the execution is consistently outstanding, and it remains one of my personal favorites.
Finally, be sure to plan ahead for dessert. The chocolate soufflé takes about 20 minutes to prepare, but it is well worth the wait—truly indulgent and unforgettable.
Without question, make a reservation. It’s an experience not to be missed.
We had an exceptional anniversary dinner at Spago.The mocktails were creative and excellent. We started with the spicy bluefin tuna sushi and the burrata and beet salad with figs and candied walnuts — both beautifully balanced and full of flavor.For our mains, the diver scallops were cooked perfectly, and the seafood curry was, in my wife’s words, the best she’s ever had. High praise indeed! She loved the sauce’s combination of spicy and slightly sweet notes. We shared the Valrhona chocolate soufflé for dessert — a perfect ending.As guests with celiac disease, we appreciated the team’s confident guidance toward safe options. Combined with polished service, a front row view of a stunning sunset setting, and a very nice acknowledgement of our anniversary, this was one of our best Maui dinners. We’ll absolutely be back next year!

I’m continually amazed how the 4 season brand allows a C- experience at its maui property. While I know the restaurant is not owned or managed by the hotel , it still falls under the hotel experience. I eat at this hotel 2-3 times per month as a local resident (Komo and Ferraros) . I had dinner at Spago last night after not being that for 4 years (and about 4 years prior to that). I knew going to Spagos to lower my expectations based on prior dinning there and NOTHING has changed. Horroable service (dirty dishes just left on table after each course that we had to ask to be removed before next course, had to flag down waiter to get a of second cocktails (and they left first round of dirty glassware ) , flag down for water refill , flag down for check (hence you see dessert dirty dishes). 4 seasons ….. please take back over your beloved brand !!! 🙏🙏🌺🌺

The 7 course tasting menu was one of the best we have had. Menu listed below. My husband and I have both experienced a variety of tastings, and Spago beat out even Michelin star experiences. The balance and complexity of flavor in each dish was phenomenal, but we could not stop talking about how shockingly large the portions were by the end, for a tasting menu. We felt the value of the meal was excellent and the added bread tasting highly recommended.
