My husband and I first came to this restaurant at its Front Street location 17 years ago on our honeymoon, and today we returned with our three kids. Everyone loved it--it was the perfect first meal in Maui. The views are gorgeous, with plenty of shade, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Our server was incredibly attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. I had the best Benedict I've ever eaten--just as I remembered it from so many years ago. My son said the steak was epic. Such a special place with wonderful memories, both past and present. We're so glad we came back. read more

Service was horrendous! Waitress ,Karly, never checked if we needed anything. Just to order a drink was 45 min. To order food another hour. Bill was messed up too. Unfortunately no manager to oversee great customer service. I feel this restaurant needs attention to the customer experience! The view is spectacular but dining should not take this much effort. Then we were charged 20% for terrible service. Not good! It is located on the Marriott property but I would rather give my business to an efficient establishment! I talked to Mike, the general manager, the next day, but seemed indifferent to our experience. read more

Monday night, February 9th, ended our times of ever dining again at Longhi's Restaurant in the Marriott Maui Ocean Club on Maui. We've been coming to Maui since 2002 and used to really enjoy dining at Longhi's when they were located in Lahaina. We even dined at this location on the Marriott Maui Ocean Club property several times. On this evening, we were dining with our friends from Pennsylvania who have never been to Hawaii. What a huge disappointment! Well, it wasn't the food (which was delightful and very delicious) that was the problem. Instead, it was the service, which was one of the worst we have ever experienced. We have travelled all over the world and this occasion certainly ranks as one of the lowest. On this evening, our server (who is probably a good waitress most of the time) was not only rude but extremely inefficient and inattentive. It's unfortunate because she started out being friendly as we talked about the cool weather and rain that was happening on Maui. However, everything changed when she brought our wives their ordered wines. Our friend's glass was nicely poured but my wife's glass was quite a bit lower than hers. When my wife asked about the difference, our waitress grabbed the glass and came back with a glass still lower than our friend's one. Second, my wife asked her for another glass half-way through our meal. For quite awhile, Leslie did not return to our table. When we had finished our meal about 15 minutes later, Leslie came to our table with the glass of wine, asking my wife if she still wanted it. My wife kindly said, "No, not at this time." our waitress was not happy and never apologized. A little later she came back to our table, leaving the bill with us and removing our plates. She never asked us if we wanted a dessert. I asked her if we could have separate checks, which I have done for all the rest of our dinner meals here on Maui during the last seven days at Duke's, Hula Grill, Mala Ocean Tavern, Leilani's, and The Plantation House. She finally came back, basically tossing the bills on the table without any thanks for dining at Longhi's. My wife had to leave the table because of the way we had been treated. I found the manager and explained to him what happened. He tried to make an excuse for the bad service. I shared with him that I used to be a waiter in Beverly Hills and would never have acted this way. On top of this, when we checked in with the manager to be seated, I mentioned that it was my wife's birthday. Nothing was ever done for her. Plus, the manager was very rude to me with his final comment. Therefore, there is no need for us to ever frequent Longhi's again, and I do not recommend anyone dine there. This is sad for me to have to mention this experience. read more

2026 January update. 3.5 We love the view here and enjoyed our meal last time. For appetizers this time, we ordered the fried calamari. It looked great, was seasoned well and way overcooked. The calamari rings were sliced way to small. We sent it back and the second try came during our main entrees. Okay, not was as overcooked but still tough. It would have been nice to be comped this. I don't blame the waitress. It would appear that she was afraid to come back to our table as she didn't come back to check on us. My entree was the island style fish which was something similar to mahi mahi. It was a little over cooked, the sauce was tasty and the sweet potato mash was generous but cold. It was a very colorful plate. Hubby's ahi was as good as last time with the plate a bit bland and the rice was also cold. We had the layer chocolate cake which was pretty good although a dollop of fresh whip cream would have been a nice touch on top of the blueberries and strawberries versus from a spray can. Server should have upselled a scoop of ice cream and some coffee. Parking is no charge in the Marriott lot and the view is top notch. We will come again as it's now a tradition on our last night. Glad to see the place was pretty busy too. read more

Great outstanding location ocean side. What we had was not great food and others around me felt the same. I had a macadamia nut fish with mango which sounds great but...very flavor lacking and just did not have any wow factor to match the surrounding. We had the Parmesan zucchini which was decent to ok appetizer. If you want a drink do that here and enjoy a great sunset but eat else where in my opinion. If you are going to pay for location please have dishes that match the surroundings. To be fair I did t have the whole menu and maybe there are better dishes. I went off recommendation. read more

Five stars on the view, five stars on the service (Mar Del Plata), three stars on the meal. The Venus Prawns were just regular sized shrimp and I would almost say Costco shrimp, with no garlic as advertised. Rice accompaniment was neither warm or seasoned. This review is not based on emotion, our friends ate here previously and raved about the chef and giant prawns. Drinks were good. Appetizer of artichoke was baked and average. Zucchini was good but typical. We've been here a week and have tried all the places nearby. read more

Longhi’s Kaanapali - View from outdoor dining area - Italian Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

There are so many wonderful options on the island, and unfortunately this is not one of them. The service was bad. Our table was constantly ignored, it took forever for us to get our order in, get our food and we had to ask for the check repeatedly. The food was all around flavorless. The artichoke longhi was soggy and overly smothered in Parmesan cheese. The linguine and clams had chewy clams and the pasta with white sauce was very bland. The GF pasta with pomodoro sauce tasted like tomato sauce with no seasoning. The food was over priced and they had a large $8 upcharge for GF pasta. The only positive was the beautiful location as we sat at a table outside with a view of the ocean. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Longhi's is right on property at the Maui Ocean Club in Lahaina. It's a great Italian spot and the seafood is always super fresh and we have come back for a second year in a row and ordered the same dishes: rigatoni bolognese, island style fish, and prawns. When it's light out it's a beautiful spot for sunset, otherwise it's a fancy restaurant with a nice ambience. Definitely on the pricey side but worth the money. read more

For appetizers, I started with the crabcakes and the clams. The crabcakes were easily some of the best I've ever had packed with crab, fresh, tender, and beautifully plated. The rich colors made me admire them for a few seconds before diving in. The clams were also a standout, bursting with flavor in a savory broth that was absolutely a 10/10. For my entrée, I went with the New York steak cooked medium-well. It had a smoky char that gave it depth, while the inside stayed thick, juicy and perfectly pink. Every bite was rich and full of flavor with juices that paired perfectly with a glass of Chianti Classico. I also tried the chicken Parmesan, which was tender, juicy, and layered with flavors. Honestly, I felt like Remy from Ratatouille mixing all the flavors together it was that exciting haha. To finish, I ordered the white chocolate cheesecake. It was plated beautifully, topped with fresh berries, and tasted as sweet as it looked. Honestly, it was so rich I joked it might give me diabetes, but it was worth every bite. My waiter, Storn was outstanding friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The restaurant itself was spacious, clean and it had a beautiful view of the beach and Lana'i. If you're looking for a restaurant that delivers amazing service, phenomenal food, and an unbeatable view, Longhi's Kaanapali is the spot :) read more

Had traditional eggs Benedict and it may have been the best I've had. Hollandaise sauce was great and had toast instead of English muffins. Wife had blueberry pancakes and they were huge in size and great taste. Highly recommend read more

Longhi's is terrific, an institution, beautiful view of sunset. And nobody there is more terrific than Tim behind the bar. Tim is unfailingly cheerful, helpful and expert. Whether it's a drink or a bite, He knows the excellent menu back-to-front in scrupulous detail. Tim can give his patrons a crisp and informative run-down on literally every item, and he can offer gentle guidance to make their visit maximally enjoyable. He also makes a point to introduce customers to each other by name, making certain that a splendid time is guaranteed for all. Highly recommend Longhi's -- and especially Tim. -- Review by Bob read more

We've been coming here since they opened on the Marriott Ocean Resort property. I was worried when I saw the recent mixed reviews. But Alex, our server was excellent, the view still God inspiring and we had the Greek salad which was fresh and crisp and bread was warm and buttery. My husband's clam linguini had about a dozen and a half small to medium very moist and flavorful clams and my fresh monchong fish Island Style was perfectly cooked with a colorful plate presentation with the mashed purple sweet potatoes and relish on the fish. Sauce was well balanced. Not sure why others had bad experiences as we have had nothing but excellence. Also a side note for ourselves. We could have easily shared either dish which is not often the case when it comes to my husband hoarding his linguini! read more

A Decent Start to Our Maui Trip - Longhi's Kaanapali We visited Longhi's Kaanapali on our very first night in Hawaii, hoping to kick off our trip with a memorable meal. The setting is undeniably beautiful -- all seating is outdoors, right along the stunning coastline of Maui, with ocean breezes and a perfect sunset view. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive, which we really appreciated after a long day of travel. The staff made sure our drinks stayed full and checked in often without hovering. As for the food -- it was fine. Not the best meal we've had, but far from the worst. It had the feel of a classic hotel restaurant: decent portions, predictable flavors, and a menu that caters to a wide variety of guests. Nothing stood out as extraordinary, but nothing was bad either. If you're staying in the area and want a convenient spot with great views and solid service, Longhi's is a safe choice. If you're searching for a culinary "wow" factor, though, you may want to explore some of Maui's other dining gems. read more

We have been to LONGHI'S and locations for several years. unfortunately, we will never go to this location. we didn't even think to read reviews because we never expected such a horrible birthday celebration dinner. Food overcooked severally; Meats all 3 dishes was awful, awful awful. The meat on the VEAL marsala and the piccata It tasted like it was overcooked Very hard not tender. Two steaks was so dry almost as if they scrapped the burnt off the steak. Worst was the fish it really honestly taste like it was four days old and not fresh at all a huge disappointment . Unfortunately, we had a woman server last night. She knew it was a birthday we brought balloons. From the moment that we sat down, she was very rude. We were ordering our drinks, she was very rude when I asked her about the different types of ice tea or the types of non-alcoholic or the ways fish could be cooked. She seemed like she didn't even care to be there working. she made each of us three adults feel like we were such an inconvenience to her by asking questions. Being in the Aloha spirit we shrugged it off. trying to ignore on her negativity because we were there for our daughter's 25th birthday! What ruined it for us is the woman server slapping our balloons giving us all rude looks. Like What the Heck.. 3 ballon's we called here Asking Permission to bring the ballon's and the cake ahead of coming. read more

We had a great dinner, sunset reveal. It was all started with the Zucchini Fritti, very nice, Al dente, Parmesan, lemon, crusted nicely. Then we ordered some veal Marsala and the fettuccini Lombardi which both came out hot and so good. It was just the right amount of food. Tastefully prepared and delivered with great servers. We finished with the macadamia nut pie. Oh my my-like a pecan pie on steroids. So good. Thanks for the great culinary experience Hostess was great and greater promptly, sat us in a perfect place. The waitress was awesome, attentive and helpful. All was really good, I recommend to give them a try. read more

Service: POOR. We arrived at 3:00 for their happy hour menu which ends at 4:00 and sat at the bar. Bartender took a while to acknowledge us but eventually gave us a menu before walking away without taking our drink order--actually, he disappeared from the bar completely. Another bartender showed up but didn't acknowledge or check in with the customers sitting there. We had to waive her down to ask to place our order. Keep in mind there were only 4 people at the bar at that time. We also noticed customers from the restaurant tables were approaching the bar asking to either get a waiter or to pay their bill since no one seemed to be coming to wait on them. At one point, a customer from the bar walked towards the kitchen entrance to once again find a bartender to order a second drink and food. Food: POOR. Chicken Sandwich and Hamburger--both burgers and buns were dry and flavorless. Didn't bother to take the second half of the chicken sandwich home. Ambiance: the only positive thing about this restaurant is that it has a view of the ocean. read more

The food: 2-3 stars The ambiance and view: 5 plus stars! I ordered the chicken marsala it was flavorless. Even the mashed potatoes were bland. Artichoke was good but way too much butter. My husband ordered the New York steak which he enjoyed. Easy walk from our Ka'anapali hotel and the view is stunning. Perhaps I ordered the wrong thing? The service was excellent and the waitress noticed I didn't like my entree so they took it off the bill. read more

We checked in with our reservation and the response was lackadaisical. We were seated and eventually the waiter(?) took our order. The bevs were average and eventually we were able to place our mains. At an acceptable point 2 of our 4 orders came. We continued to wait for our other 2 orders and at about the 10 minute mark, after several patrons who had been seated after us were eating, we summoned a waiter (not ours as he was somewhere else(?) ) and within a couple of minutes we received our other 2 orders. The evening was not exactly as we expected. The food was actually very good. The service needs improvement read more

Slowest service ever, it took so long to get our food. And our appetizer came out cold! The food was below mediocre. If you care about food at all, highly suggest going somewhere else. read more

Horrible horrible food. Please do not come here. Safeway has better food than here. My fish was actually inedible and I am having stomach after eating that fish at this restaurant. Service is equally horrible- they seated us at a table full of bugs (not wiped at all), forgot to bring utensils, my wine had bugs in it as well. When I asked to change the server brought a glass of wine saying "this one is slightly better". The new one also had black stuff in it. Do not come to this place. read more

We had an amazing dinner last night at Longhi's! Our server was very attentive and the manager Josh was so gracious. The restaurant is in a great location especially to see the sunset. The ahi salad and crab cakes were delicious for appetizers. I got the chicken marsala as my main which was outstanding and a chianti which paired perfectly! Overall we had a wonderful experience and highly recommend this place. read more

We stopped here for drinks and appetizers before heading to dinner. Got in quickly at the bar with quick service. Tuna carpaccio was fresh and had a healthy serving of tuna on it. Was almost like a salad as the bed of lettuce underneath was drizzled with dressing. Capers to top it off blended flavors nicely. Could use a little more salt. But overall decent food with a great view and convenient location to the Marriott. read more

The only restaurant in Kaanapali that turns away big groups saying there are no tables available, at 5:30. And their food is mid.

Absolutely terrible! There were 5 of us that ordered 1 macadamia crusted fish, 3 filet mignon, 1 new York steak. We waited an hour for our entrees. The fish was great; the filets were sliced like a flank steak, very tough, tasteless and appeared to have been cooked frozen as there was a ton of water on the plate, not steak juice. The meat tasted old and dried out. The new York steak was supposed to be well done and came out pink/medium with a lot of fat. The mashed potatoes were completely cold. Our server never came back once dinner was served. She dropped my plate on the table, she left everyone's dirty salad dishes all over the table. We tried to flag someone down about the new York steak not being cooked as ordered and couldn't get anyone's attention. We finished and again waited for someone. We finally caught the attention of another server and requested the manager. He came over and didn't care at all. He cut me off and said we should have brought the poor meal to someone's attention. Pretty hard to do when no one comes to check on your meal or drinks and ignores you when you try to flag them down. We ran out of water and drinks and no one came to refill anything. The manager was not apologetic and was clearly annoyed. Two of our guests saw him smirk and make eye contact with our server. There was nothing funny about the situation. $500 wasted money. It was supposed to be a special dinner for our family. Needless to say, extremely disappointed. I can't believe The Marriott would allow a restaurant like this in one of their hotels. We come to Maui every year and won't be returning to Longhi's, so many better places to eat. read more

Pros: Beautiful beachfront ambiance. Friendly staff. Cons: Expensive mediocre dishes. My husband and I are at the Marriott this week and dined here Sunday evening (4-27-25).

We came here as a table of 15 with a reservation made weeks in advance, and this was supposed to be our nicest dinner on our last night. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. The restaurant was nearly empty, yet we were ignored, and the service was disorganized and incompetent. When the food finally arrived, it was COLD, and for how WAY overpriced everything was, that's completely unacceptable. This should have been an easy, enjoyable experience and instead it completely missed the mark. We will not be returning and would not recommend this place--especially for groups or special occasions. read more

Visited for their thanksgiving menu. Absolute junk, would not recommend. Food was ridiculously expensive, bland, and cold. I ordered a medium cooked steak and was served medium rare, it was bleeding red. Green beans were skinny and skimpy lacking all flavor. Pumpkin pie lacked all flavor and my party couldn't barely take more than one bite. Would not reccomend or visit again. Servers were also cold and rude. For the price we are paying, I expect some decency. read more

Terrific restaurant located in the Marriott Ocean Club. Jim made our dining experience even better. We called earlier in the day to make reservation for our group of 9 and asked for an outside table for dinner so we can enjoy the sunset and the fresh air. When we walked up to check in, there was no reservation for us but they accommodated us with a long table outside right away. That was appreciated. I wanted shrimp with pasta but they not have anything like that on the menu so Jim said they can make it for me. Love that. Everyone at the table enjoyed our meal very much. Each dish was played nicely with large portions. For dessert, we opted for the pie and it did not disappoint. We all had a good taste of it and will come back just for that. Very nice experience and we would come back again if we are in the area. read more
