• Italian • Kahului
Booked 12 times today
Bistro Casanova is smooth, elegant, exquisite and fun. A tropical landscaping refreshes the air surrounding the outside al fresco tables. Bistro Casanova offers Mediterranean fare, its roots coming from the Cinque Terre in Italy where the owner comes from. Its menu reaches some classic of the European cuisine: Paella for two, Cioppino, Focaccias, Grigliata plates of grilled meat or fish large enough to share, prime cuts of steaks are between the favorites, next to an excellent selection of pastas and fresh salads. Locally grown ingredients are used extensively, as well as the freshest fish from Maui's ocean. Bistro Casanova is a favorite for Happy Hour relaxation, watered by specialty martinis and carafes of mojito and margaritas.Tapas (available after 4pm) can be a tasty complement to your drinks, an opening line for your dinner, or dinner itself. At dinner, Bistro Casanova is a romantic destination for meals before a show or the perfect stop before flying out of Maui.

    My husband & I dined with clients at Matteo’s. Our table was outside on the covered lanai, the ambiance & temperature were very enjoyable. Michelle, the hostess was exceptionally welcoming & hospitable upon our arrival. Kiana was our server, she was incredible! So friendly, helpful with the menu, she answered questions about recommendations & ingredients in the menu items. She allowed us time to visit with each other & review the menu, her timing was impeccable throughout our meal. The bruschetta al tonno, misto salad, lasagna, monchong fish special & bolognese were all divine. Great wine & drink menu, too! I would highly recommend Matteo’s in Wailea.

    We had a Filet Mignon cooked to perfection and the house made Pappardelle served in a wonderfully delicious ragu made beef and venison. Indescribably delicious. The double chocolate cake for dessert was heavenly. We will definitely plan to return soon to this up country gem.

    Really good food! Little warm for me but not unpleasant. The signature cocktail (Mai tai?) was delicious and they called it a different name and it definitely wasn’t a traditional Mai tai. $180 for 6 of us seemed like a lot but also not unreasonable for Maui. Awesome place to stop for lunch after a pineapple tour across the street.
