The 21 Essential Maui Restaurants
"On an island where decent sandwiches are hard to come by, Spoon & Key (a rebranding of the Market Wailea) comes to the rescue. The seared ‘ahi melt on a brioche bun features local fish, the Proper BLT layers crispy pork belly, wild greens, and tomato on sourdough, and the Green Eggs & Kale panini is a delicious mess of melted provolone and whole grain mustard. On Friday and Saturday nights husband-and-wife team Chris and Tarah Kulis host pop-up dinners, where the weekly menu might feature pickled octopus with shishito peppers or seared scallops with parsnip and breadfruit. Ample portions are served family-style, and if you’re feeling hedonistic, you can add caviar or dry-aged rib-eye to the feast. The outdoor tables have a view, but noise from the road makes the indoor seating a better choice." - Shannon Wianecki, Bill Addison
