Matteo's Osteria - Kīhei

This place might not be bad if we had 0 expectations. 3.5 out of 10, food is overpriced for what it is. Very far from the true Italian cuisine. Servers are nice! Wouldn't recommend.

The first time in Matteo and definitely not the last. The Frutti Di Mare is quite brilliant. My wife had the gnocchi, which was also quite brilliant. You have my list of have to visit places in Maui.

This place is a hidden gem. It is absolutely divine. super professional group of people. very kovid safe as they take your temperature to improve the best environment to immerse. super clean and raised. definitely the best gnocchi i? ve je ate!!! 100% recommend when your in maui hands down

We went to dinner near the end of our stay in Maui and we have to say we wish we had eaten here early as the food and the staff were so good, we would have gone a few more times. When we arrived, we sat quickly after some COVID protocols. The waiter Suke came over and imagined, and it became better and better. Suke was clearly understandable with a warm and friendly arrangement. He made some great recommendations for meals and wine pairings. He explained how all foods were freshly prepared and the whole pasta on the menu in the house are handmade. The food came out efficiently from the kitchen where Matteo himself ran the show this night. The braided short rib and the Butternuss-Quash-Ravioli in a sage and butter sauce were sublimed while someone else in our group had one of the best Lasagna dishes he had ever had. The desserts were also delicious with a flourless chocolate cake that was so light and decadent that it melted into the mouth. The absolute star of dessert options, in my opinion, was Matteo taking his own on an Italian favorite, the Cannoli. The bowl was light, thin and fresh with almost one cripple cookie texture and a coconut cream filling that was one of the most delicious sweets we ever tasted. Last but not least, at the end of our meal, we noticed that Guy Fieri (Food Network Star) had visited and also left his stamp of permission on the wall. You need to visit Matteo when in the area, you will not be disappointed!

A restaurant must have good food, good service and a good atmosphere. Matteo?s did not disappoint. The food was amazing! The service exceptional. Kiana made us feel like family and elevated our experience to a new level. The vibe is great. Epic evening!
