Best Casual Restaurants in Kapalua

Seamless seating for 6, knowledgeable wait staff, excellent service, delicious food! Great dining experience... we have been coming here while on vacation for the past 15 years.

Sansei is where we come the first evening of our visits to Maui! Like always, we are very impressed by the food and the service! We would like to give a special shout out to Chris S. for his amazing service and attention!!! We look forward to each visit! :)

Fresh made cocktails, beautiful ambiance. Food was delicious. They had a great vegetarian menu that’s not listed online. Great service.

We enjoy coming back when we visit Maui. The food is great, the location and the view are amazing and the service is always top shelf. This time, we split a salad and I had the Hawaiian Short Rib and my wife enjoyed “The Catch of the Day” Special. Both were excellent. The Pineapple Upside Down Cake for dessert topped off the meal in style. Our server was friendly and personable. She shared her story about running marathons which was very impressive. Al in all, we can’t wait to return.

We had a fabulous time and the food was fantastic! Our waiter Tad was knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations. The beet salad is delicious! We had the special fish which was moist, well seasoned and cooked perfectly. It was a preparation I wouldn’t normally choose, but I’m trying to eat healthier and normally lentils with vegetables wouldn’t be my “go to”, but this was so flavorful and satisfying. We also had the ribeye special with the herbed butter. Again, a dish cooked perfectly with wonderful flavors. The mashed potatoes were the best I have ever enjoyed! Noah, checked in on us and our meal and was quite engaging and very fun. We enjoyed our meal and the beautiful ambiance of Traverna. It’s not to be missed when on Maui and we will be back soon! Thank you!
