This is a place for good but basic pasta dinnersBy Hawaiian standards, it's reasonably inexpensive. My 9nly complaint is that "linguine" items are really spaghetti and I really prefer my linguine with clam sauce to be made with linguine. It's hard to keep clams in with round pasta. Flat is much better.The baked penne NY is probably my favorite.

We decided to come here for traditional pasta dishes that are on the menu. At the price we paid it was average. The service was fast. When our pasta came out it was noticeable that the noodles were drained improperly with quite a bit of water at the bottom of the dish. The portion sizes were small although we didn’t mind considering we weren’t that hungry. Unless the improve their kitchen processes and increase the portion sizes or decrease the prices you might as well cook your own pasta at home for much less.

Really liked coming here and having some Italian food. Went with the chicken fettuccine and it was very good, regret not getting some Penne Pasta though. If you’re looking for a spot that’s not super crazy in Lahaina and you want good food this is the stop.

I popped in for an early dinner and got the Mozzarella, Tomato, Basil and Greens sandwich with a glass of White Wine. It was the perfect light meal after a day in the sun. It's a cute little spot with outdoor seating and the staff was super friendly. I highly recommend!

It is a nice little restaurant. The pastas are ok and the ratio quantity/price is decent. I would have preferred a more punchy sauce, something more special.

Great food, kind owner and great service. Everyone eating here raved about how great everything tastes. All this and reasonable prices, you can't go wrong! Will recommend and definitely be back! Huge thanks!

Quaint local restaurant that's been here for a long time. The owner is also very much involved in the community and providing food. The menu is varied and the food is good The prices are extremely reasonable. Nice outdoor seating available.

Good little cafe. Great Italian food. The pasta was really tasty. The chicken salad sandwich was amazing ?

Food was good. The garlic cheesy bread was very delicious! We had the chicken parmesan which was very good. The only bad thing is the owners are dodgers fans. ? Would come back again.

While I appreciate that this place offers vegan options, they charge $2 for the tiniest sprinkling of daiya cheese. Their flatbreads are like eating pita chips and toppings are extremely sparse.We arrived over an hour and a half prior to closing for dinner and fortunately just got there in time. Every other customer after us was turned away despite the stated closing time of 8pm. It also took 45 minutes to make us these small flatbreads aka pita crisps.Check out other vegan options in the area instead.
