KEA LANI RESTAURANT — Restaurant in Maui

We stayed at the Fairmont for a week and ate at the Kea Lani breakfast buffet a few times. All I’m going to say is whatever you’re doing Fairmont, KEEP IT UP. I was really impressed with the variety of food they offered for a smallish part of the restaurant. They had chicken and waffles, fried rice (can’t get enough of it), your basic eggs, bacon, sausage (two types I might add), an Asian section (dim sum, buns), a fruit bar, pancakes, French toast, pastries, yogurt, and my favorite, their omelette station!! Love, love their version of a loco Moco omelette. The beef was sooo tender. I also liked that they change up the menu. On our first day, they offered French toast and the second time we came, it was apple crepes. Really great food (especially compared to Duo located in The Four Seasons). You can read my comparison review there.

Decided to splurge a little and treat myself and family to a nice breakfast in wailea. As locals we have our usual spots but decided to give this place a try since there was a kamaaina special. We weren’t disappointed. I had my fill of smoked salmon, ahi poke, bacon, and eggs benny (all buffet so that was a plus). Kiddos had everything and the wife really enjoyed the atmosphere. Not stuffy, great staff (Venus was our server) and the kamaaina was a plus....
