We really enjoyed this place. Nice family atmosphere, nothing fancy. Friendly helpful service. The food was excellent. The service is semi-cafeteria style. You order first at the front, go sit down, and they bring it to you. My only complaint would be that the service was too fast. The display case of desserts was lovely. Too many good things to choose from. The pricing is reasonable. Location is just off the main road. read more

We ate here on a Tuesday night and the place was very quiet but friendly and welcoming. We don't have a broad experience with their menu but I can honestly say their bolognese was truly outstanding! We ordered it GF which came as Barilla (or similar rice/corn) penne. It wasn't great but adequate and we were grateful that they had the option. The garden salad was fresh and sizable but the tropical-style vinaigrette didn't quite match with the red-sauce pasta and a more traditional, savory, Italian dressing would have been better. The baked goods in the front glass case looked delicious and high-quality. They even had cannoli which was very hard to pass up. We'll definitely plan a return visit the next time we're in town. read more

I love this place. The Italian food is good. The bakery is unbelievable. There's spaghetti Bolognese is extra special and their green salad is wonderful. It has everything in it. Music is unreal outdoor patio gives people a lot of chance to have to have a family gathering, they can accommodate a lot of people, the red velvet cake is to die for and our drinks are great. Good wine list very consistent. read more

Found this nice restaurant in Kihei. We went on a Sunday and had a brunch menu. They were friendly and nice. They have an indoor as well as outdoor seating area. The food tasted good but portions were small for the price. The yogurt and granola was very plain as well as the waffle special. We may come back to try dinner but breakfast was a little expensive. Maybe try other options on the menu. read more

Late March 2025 we were in the mood for Italian flavors. After a decade of visiting Kihei, we looked up Fabiani's and had a nice meal and a great time in this neighborhood spot. We customized a Cheese Pizza with Artichoke, Chicken, Extra Cheese, Onions, and Sun Dried Tomato, *phew*! I ordered their House Margherita Pizza made with red sauce, although I prefer white sauce on this pie. I also ordered one meatball on the side to try it out; it was flavorful and I'll have Spaghetti and Meatballs on a future visit. An iced tea and a water were our drinks; we're not drinking much alcohol, lately. The pizzas were good. Fabiani's thin crust pizzas have enough body and crispness to hold the toppings of our custom pizza. The Margherita was lightly dressed and good on the thin crust. The iced tea was fun for us to figure out; she immediately said Hibiscus Tea with something else in it. I took a sip and said, Raspberry. The staffer who offered us a sprinkling of Parmesan on our pizzas said we were both right: their iced tea is a Hibiscus-Raspberry blend! We enjoyed the restaurant. It appeared to be a favorite with bar patrons drinking and visiting. Most of the table patrons appeared to be neighborhood folks. It wasn't crowded on a week night. It's plain to see that the Canadians are avoiding Hawaii because of the turn in National politics, and it was after Semester Break. read more

What happened to this place? Food and service has fallen. And desserts hit serious shrinkflation.. make them smaller or raise the price, don't do both! Owner was running the resister tonight and not sure he's best suited for that job. Place was empty. Food came out wrong. Our table never got bread. Water never refilled. Guess that's why you add the tip when you order because no one would tip otherwise. That said the food was okay. Will just get it to go next time. read more

When we arrived for lunch they had a three piece group playing. They were good, but way too loud for such a small place, so we opted for eating outside which was lovely. We shared a 12-inch pizza adding our favorites to our sides. I had artichokes and mushrooms on my side; hubby had pepperoni, mushrooms, onions. We had arugula over the whole pizza. I love thin crust especially when it's crispy which this one was except on part of the bottom. It was tasty but there were very few mushrooms on either side, and very little sauce. The pepperoni was tasty and not at all greasy. There were adequate artichokes, onions and arugula. The outside area was clean and comfortable. The staff was attentive, and helpful. It's located off the main streets, but parking at the door. Also, the Friends of Maui Library Bookstore is just a few steps away, a plus! The pizza was good except for part of the bottom being soggy. When we return to the island we may try again. read more

Updating past review. Unfortunately, the vegan bolognese is not the same at all. I'm so devastated as it used to be the most amazing dish! It's now penne pasta (not homemade pappardelle) and the sauce is so thin -couldn't find any of the "meat" or "parm" topping. They added mushrooms on it at least but it was like something I could make at home. The pizza was a confusion - I ordered online to try to make it easy so I didn't know they added a 14" pizza. Well it's a completely different crust than their delicious 12" crust type. The 12" Is the kind I like. Also my bad, I realized on Apple Pay I just pressed buy with 1 button and it didn't add a tip in!? So I feel really bad about that as it's not the workers fault the food isn't as good. I wish I could leave a $100 tip to get the yummy version vegan bolognese back!!! read more

I'm updating the review to 5 stars because I originally docked them a star because they cost more than I expected (these were higher than DC prices). But the menu showed the correct price and the taste/quality met/exceeded the expectation even at that price. 5 stars because I would definitely visit (and pay extra) again read more

I think they need to consider increasing the amount of wait staff they have. I was here on a Sunday night and they were absolutely slammed. As far as I could see from the bar, there was a bartender, a single cashier taking all non-bar orders, and a single food runner in the front of the house. Nearly every table was full. Maybe someone called in sick or maybe I got something wrong. All I know is lines were out the door and people (including myself) were waiting a long time for food, drinks and bills. They began the model they have (no visible waiters, just order at the cashier and food runners bring you food and drink) during the pandemic...presumably as a way to trim down on staffing. I'm not sure it's the best model for them anymore. It works okay for some establishments (Paia Fishmarket) in Kihei...but the common denominator is lines out the door and while waiting in line you can't enjoy yourself. There is a bottleneck at the single cashier. They might want to consider either adding more true waiters or possibly doing something on tablets at each table if they are intent on not hiring additional wait staff. Cool Cat which recently opened seems to have done well for themselves with a nice blend of waiters and runners...which used to be the case at Fabiani's before the pandemic. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fabiani's twice on Mother's Day, once for breakfast and again for dinner. Each visit was nothing short of delightful! Breakfast: The breakfast menu is a true treat! We indulged in over 8 breakfast items which were perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The quality of the ingredients really shines through, and we appreciated the generous portions. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it a perfect start to Mother's Day. The co-owner iMichelle Fabiani and Mike were actually in the kitchen that morning cooking and baking making sure everything turned out perfect. The staff is always very pleasant and polite accommodating to all the customers needs. Dinner: For dinner, we ordered about eight entrées to split with each other], and it overly satisfied our Italian craving since we just finished washing the movie Nonna's after breakfast, which is about Italian grandmother's cooking. The flavors were well-balanced, and it was evident that they take pride in their culinary creations. The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall experience. Pastries: No visit to Fabiani's would be complete without trying their pastries! We sampled almost one of everything between both of our visits and it was heavenly. The perfect combination of flaky and rich, it was the ideal sweet ending to my meals. The red velvet cake is to die for, and in my opinion, one of the best desserts in the world Overall, my experiences at Fabiani's were fantastic. I highly recommend visiting this gem in Maui for anyone looking for delicious food and delightful pastries. I can't wait to return! I have frequented this restaurant dozens of times since they've opened and we also really enjoy the happy hour that they have with half off their amazing pizzas --- read more

What a poor experience. The dining experience started when we had to order and pay at the counter. You're asked to leave a tip prior to sitting down which I completely disagree with as we have no idea how our service would be. I reluctantly left an 18% tip with the intention of leaving more if the service was decent, I should have left less. The food was bland and poorly cooked. The chicken parm was flavorless and the lasagne sauce was quite bitter, the pasta was overcooked. We would have brought this to the attention to our server but he couldn't be bothered to come to our table a single time during our meal. If the restaurant was busy I may understand his absence but the entire restaurant only had 3 tables seated including ourselves. We did manage to get our server's attention to get a to go box (for the garlic bread which was quite good), the box was delivered without a word, no "How was your meal? Would you like dessert? Can I get you anything else? Would you like another drink?" Nothing. Fabiani's has always been highly recommended, I can't see why. I try to support local as a local but I won't be back. read more

Excellent Food! I recommend the Baked Scallops, Gnocchi, Meat Lasagne, Pizza, Cheese Ravioli, or artichoke spinach dip with Focaccia! Staff very professional, knowledgeable and amiable. Don't forget to try any Dessert, all expertly made and delicious! Thank You Ethan! you made a special night even more SPECIAL. We will be back again and again! read more

Pizza was a 10/10! We ordered the 16inch which is the thicker crust and it was sooooo good! Hubby and I customized our toppings and we both enjoyed every bite. We stopped here just before flying home, and the young man who helped us (around 5pm Thursday) was so warm and kind. We will definitely be back next time we're in Maui! read more

We wanted Italian in Kihei and were disappointed with this place. It's self service, and the food was very mid. The risotto was mushy and had marinara sauce in it, which was an odd choice. Spaghetti was good, pizza was good, the Alfredo was lackluster. read more

This is the better spot for Italian in Kihei. But here, you order and pay at the counter. You get a number stand up and find a table. They find your number and deliver. They do come back for shredded cheese and wine for the table. They do Cater. There is a Christmas party where we want to serve a Lasagna coming up. So I had it tonight for a taste test. Beef Lasagna, delicious. We got a ball park price to serve 20. We ll see. If we do it, it will be a winner. read more

Really good thin crust pizza! And at half price during happy hour, it might just be the best value pizza for your money on the entire island. Excellent desserts too. Thanks to Yelp reviewers, we learned about the daily 12" pizza deal (3pm to 5pm I think), if you order & sit at the bar. We ordered the Sunday special (white pizza with sausage, onion, zucchini, garlic and ranch drizzle) and a calzone. Both were delicious. The crust was done perfectly, not soggy or overcooked, and the calzone top was thin and crunchy, perfect for scooping the spilling innards. We also had the peanut butter pie and the lillikoi mousse cake. Both were fresh and high quality, beautiful little desserts. The service was friendly and prompt, both at the front counter (where you order for the sit-down restaurant area, for to go, or to just pick up desserts) and at the bar. Big warm genuine smiles, the staff made us feel quite welcome. Very Aloha. A hidden gem? Maybe, it was pretty quiet for a Sunday. Definitely worth a return visit. The menu looks great! read more

This is a great place to hang out and catch up with friends for simple good Italian food. They have a choice of indoor or outdoor dining. The service is great and the food is always reliably great.

So far I wanted to leave them a telephone message off hours and their voice mailbox is full. Also, when I tried to send them an email I get an error message stating that their email address doesn't exist. For all the great reviews of their food and our wish to go there in December they don't have much in the way of open communications. I guess I will try when they open in 3 hours from where I live. So far not a great start. read more

Ordered takeout on a Sunday and it was literally terrible. Very old food. Top 5 worst italian food and pizza in my 61 years. They should be embarrassed to send out such old food.

Average- overall experience...good pasta, average pizza, great desserts, slow and uninspired service. A bit pricey. $200/party of five. Unfortunately one of our party got sick from (presumably) uncooked shrimp served with her Caesar salad. Complained it was slimy, which to me means under washed. Dont order the shrimp, expect a pretty long wait for your food. read more

We have enjoyed Fabianis for 2 years since we moved to Kihei. Tonight was an anomaly in the usually excellent customer service. A new cashier, Mike, reacted negatively to an onslaught of diners. I ordered a takeout pizza at 5:23 pm and told it would be a 25 minute wait time. 45 minutes later I asked if my pizza was ready. He told me to sit down and he would let me know. When I pointed out that it had been 45 minutes, he yelled "back off" and told me to sit and wait. The restaurant was filled to capacity and he is new. However, that interaction makes me question if the pizza is good enough to tolerate the rudeness. Sadly, we may or may not be back. . read more

Really good Italian! Unexpected for Hawaii. Order and sit kind of place Got the following: Spinach salad with balsamic vinaigrette: 4 stars, good candied pecans and the vinaigrette was one of the better ones I've had Lasagna: 4 stars, really good tomato sauce and big portion. Hearty and exactly what you want in a lasagna Meaty pizza: 3 stars, the crust was good, but I felt the topping was too salty. Would be back to try more! read more

Fabiani's Desserts on Maui has truly captured the essence of indulgence. The Tiramisu cheesecake had creamy texture and perfect balance of mascarpone and Oreo coffee flavors. The Red Velvet cheesecake was my favorite and is little slice of heaven, with its moist layers, cream cheese frosting, and chocolate coating. The Cannoli was hands down my favorite cannoli I've ever tasted, with its pastry shell and ricotta filling. And let's not forget the Lemon Mousse Cake, a light and airy dessert with citrusy flavors. Fabiani's desserts are truly comforting and it's so enjoyable for takeout. Their desserts have every sweet tooth is satisfied, and I can't recommend them enough for an unforgettable dessert experience! PS the employee was so nice, they threw in a raspberry macaron :) read more

My wife & I ordered take out from Fabiani's - our first time. We split a large "THE GREEN ONE" salad and an order of "FABIANI'S ORIGINAL MEAT LASAGNA" which came with several pieces of focaccia bread. When I arrived to pick up our meal, I couldn't resist picking up a chocolate-dipped coconut macaroon for dessert. The salad met my expectations. I love this cranberry-walnut salad with spinach and feta. It's almost always good and this was no exception. The lasagna however, far exceeded my expectations. Everything about it was great, but it was the sauce that excited my taste buds at the first bite. It was incredibly flavorful with just the right amount of spice. Just amazing; among the best I have had. I highly recommend giving Fabiani's a try. read more
