    Nice variety of everything. Start with the olive and bread appetizer. I would like the linguine and clams, but I’m not nuts about the sausage on them so I had them hold it. There is a fillet of Bronzino, which is great because it has a lot of broccolini and potatoes, but if you don’t get the linguine and clams, get an appetizer portion of the carbonara. You can eat well it taverna for less other places. Woodburning pizza oven is very nice also.

    Excellent dining experience, service, food and wine list has always been 5 stars. We’ve been faithful dinners since they originally opened in 2016. We travel to Maui every year Teverma has become our traditional dinning location for our wedding anniversary for the past 17 years, with the skills of our waiter Matt and the owner Sharon we happily celebrated our 48th anniversary. For special occasions or a good dinning experience this is the place for us and hopefully for you.

    Taverna - MauiResponded 3 days agoAloha Mike777- I love hearing that you make sure to join us once a trip when you're on Maui! Thank you so much for this thoughtful review. We are truly lucky to have an owner like Sharon, she goes above and beyond to help us out however she can!! Matt is also an awesome server and definitely makes the dining experience memorable! We can't wait to see you for your 18th anniversary!! Mahalo, Bridget Manager

    Our family love Taverna and dine here often. Good service and good food every time we come here. On Open Table, I put in a special request for a specific table that we like at the restaurant and when we got there, the hostess greeted us with a smile and acknowledged my request and they sat us at the table we wanted. We usually also bring our small dog (in a doggie stroller) with us when we dine here, and we love that this is a very dog friendly restaurant. Our waiter Matt was great too! When our appetizers and food came to the table, everything was nice and hot. Enjoyed our drinks, appetizers, entree, friendly service, great table. It was a pleasant relaxing evening and will be back soon!

    Duck and pear pizza flavors were blah, and the prosciutto wrapped mahimahi tasted super fishy and was sent back. Misto calamari/shrimp appetizer delicious as was comped bread service. The pasta special short rib creamed sauce fresh penne was great. Service was great and Mgmt attentive too. We'll be back to try some other dishes; curious that they feature Branzino, a Mediterranean fish from the other side of the planet.

    Restaurant was perfectly fine. Out of the way. Overlooking a golf course. Food was tasty but expensive for what we had. A good, but not great, value for money. Service was good. The restaurant was an Italian-themed restaurant but mostly they had Italian-named food. I’ve lived in Italy and while good, the food wasn’t what I associate with Italy. Would I recommend it? Depends what you’re looking for. Probably not.

    The best dinner I’ve had in Lahaina, Maui. We had Matt as our server and he was excellent. Told us his favorites and we trusted him because he seemed so sure about what he liked on the menu. Parking was great and had many stalls available. Food and drinks were excellent and I’d definitely come back and refer to all my friends.

    Being from a land lock state where a beef, pork ect are plentiful,, I was disappointed that this restaurant did not offer more seafood Italian fare. There are so many amazing Italian seafood dishes that could be made. We did opt for one of the fresh fish, Italian dishes, which was amazing. However, I was hoping for a shrimp, crab or other seafood options as well. Also, a note, there are some restaurants that offer smaller portions of regular menu offering instead of the same chicken nugget, cheeseburger children’s menu. I am disappointed that many of the upper scale restaurants we visited do not offer this.

    Matthew our waiter was outstanding !! 5 star service. Matthew has the professional waiter service down to a science . Was attentive to our needs, great sense of humor, local knowledge was excellent. So glad we had him serving our table. The owner came by to check in …that’s a sign of higher service …for sure, This was a get together for our Purdy family -6 adults , 1 infant. Plus a bday celeb for our daughter-in-law (who turned 27). We had just done a beach photo shoot at nearby Fleming Beach-Kapalua, Maui. Food was terrific, views of surrounding area -golf course was great, tiki torches burning at the perimeter and drinks were top notch . Drew Purdy New London, NH

    Environment is nice, lively and not too loud. Outside seating and bar seating also available. Service was very good, a mistake with order was made but quickly taken care of. Beet salad was terrific - pizza not so great, pretty flavorless w/skimpy toppings- for $21. Daily special pasta and fish were also ok. Overall, a good not great dining experience.

    At the lasagna. It looks like a dogs breakfast. Wouldn’t order again. I’m used to a nice firm slice of lasagna with some Sandee sauce on the side. The pasta Primavera was good. My wife ordered spaghetti and meatballs not an item on the menu, but they were able to do it large portions. We took half home very noisy.

    Waitress was pretty good. They took our water and never brought anything back. Done of the patrons were rude and obnoxious and nothing was done. Food was alright, but for the price not all that spectacular. They left all the doors open while it was raining which made the space extremely cold and seemed like they cared more about turning tables then having a quality time.

    The food was good, there was lots on energy in the bar and restaurant. Our waiter was not as attentive as we are accustomed to at this restaurant or any other food establishment. I ordered a glass of white wine and if it reached even 5 ounces, I’d be shocked. He forgot about my husband’s beer, as we had a view of the bar and saw it being poured. When we ordered a second round of drinks, I asked for a better pour, and he obliged. We used to come to this restaurant more often, but we have become more disappointed each time we go. We may back off for awhile, as there are several choices for Italian food in our area
