About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
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.

    When we entered, we were greeted with a hostess with a smiling face. Made us feel like we were special. Our waitress was outstanding. I had a Cosmopolitan, our guest had a Long Island Ice Tea. Both good. My husband had a very watered-down Happy Hour Margarita Carafe that was very disappointing. Our Pasta dishes were very good. Again, an Outstanding waitress. The table behind us was 8-10 people so it was Very loud with people, kids up and down from their seats. Next time I will ask for a quieter area when I make the reservations. Very difficult to hear our table with people behind you talking while standing.

    Thank you so much for your comments and for your appreciation of our server and our food. Yes, to sit next to a family table with kids can be a torture and I feel your pain...I am glad Shakti was able to make you enjoy your dinner anyway. We hope to see you soon back at Bistro for a quiet dinner...

    Bistro Casanova offers great food, service (thank you Lyric!), and prices. It was a pleasant surprise and a great break from resort food. It’s a nice local Italian spot. We booked outside because nothing was available and our host found us something inside so we were grateful!

    Thank you for your kind words. I am glad that my staff was able to accommodate you and Lyric is a pleasure to be served by.

    As usual, the food was excellent. The angel hair pasta was perfect with the tomatoes, spinach, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese shavings. The olive oil and garlic sauce made for a perfect combination. Our server, Betty, was welcoming and friendly and never disappointed our wonderful experience.
    Bistro CasanovaResponded on June 24, 2025
    Thank you for your kind words and for your patronage. Betty will be happy to know how much she is appreciated. See you soon at Bistro Casanova.

    Tiara was our server. She was absolutely amazing She was attentive and friendly She is a great asset to the team! We always make a reservation for our annual trip in June. Giovanni should be very proud of his team and also his hard work and dedication.

    I will never go back to Bistro Casanova in Kahului. Poor Management as far as items listed on menu. I've been there 3 times in the last 6 months where items on the menu were not available. Always given some lame excuse of why they did not have it. There were only four of us at the table and they tacked on a 20% gratuity charge to our bills! All the times I've been there business was slow. That should have been hint!
    Bistro CasanovaResponded on June 17, 2025
    While I regret your decision of never come back to Bistro, I wish to thank you for your past repeated patronage. I know how much you love our Wailea Burger (lobster meat and avocado) and how disappointed you were because it became available only around noon, when you had already made your alternative lunch selection. I would not give you another lame excuse, except...that we are not in control of the daily delivery time of seafood from our supplier. It is clearly stated in our menu that we add an automatic 20% gratuity to the tab when patrons demand separate checks for each member of the party (limit of 4 checks per table). I hope you reconsider your decision. If you call me in advance I will keep you posted on the availability of the Wailea Burger...

    Never a disappointment, unless you don’t dine there 😁 From appetizers to entrees, ono loa! I didn’t include dessert because I’m always too full for it.

    Very pleasant dining for our party of five. Drinks were cold, server was very attentive and friendly. Pasta dishes were very delicious and served hot, the pastas very very freshly made. Salads were fresh and cold. The Calamari appetizer was mostly small bits unable to pick up with a fork or chopsticks, we did not enjoyed this at all.

    We had a reservation for two, it was my husband‘s birthday. We did mention on the reservation that it was his birthday, and nothing was acknowledged. We’ve lived on Maui for 40 years and rarely go out we only go out for special occasions. Unfortunately it was just a regular dinner nothing was acknowled!
    Bistro CasanovaResponded on May 16, 2025
    I am sorry that your husband's birthday was not properly acknowledged. We gladly offer a free Tiramisu' for the birthday boy (or girl) and sing a song....I guess there was a lack of communication and for that I apologize.
