If something is missing, you might be missing some brain cells. I'm kidding, but seriously. SLAPS, I'm looking at the water, the waves crashing, sipping Dolce Tramonto (hitter), the staff is all smiles, and the food doesn't miss. If you're having a bad time, ask your date to stop talking and look at the view. Ok, ok - this place is great, the food is on point, and you're at the best beach in Maui. It honestly doesn't get better than this. read more

We came here last year and loved this restaurant but were incredibly disappointed this year. The entrees are priced the same as they are at Nobu, Spago, Morimoto...etc but the food is not even close to that caliber. I ate the salmon and it was a 1/2 filet with a flavorless sauce for $58. I do not recommend eating here. Skip it and spend your money anywhere else. We walked out feeling like we completely wasted $200. read more

Not sure why the review are so low. I mean, yes, it's pricey, buts inside a 5 star hotel. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT??? The food was great each time we went, and the servers are nice and accommodating. Richard in particular, was super thoughtful and attentive tonight. Packaging up our pizza so we could eat it in our room, and being very kind to us on a busy night. I wouldn't necessarily travel across the island, but it gets the job done if you're staying in the area. read more

This is a combined review. We went for dinner (5 adults, two toddlers) and was a bit disappointed with the service and how hot it was. For what you pay, it would have been nice to have some a/c, although like many places in Maui, the "walls" were open areas. Given the heat and humidity, I don't think we'd do dinner here again. The food was very good. We had pizzas, which came right out, and a delicious warm brownie for dessert (among many other items)...it was just too warm to enjoy them. The mai tais were WONDERFUL. We went back a few times in the afternoon, and had cocktails at the bar (we were not allowed to have a table). The hotel is too big, but the great mai tais are worth the trip! read more

We had a wonderful experience at Olivine. Our server Karen was excellent and gave us great recommendations. We enjoyed delicious drinks on the patio and enjoyed the sound of the ocean. My favorite appetizer was the grilled peach and Barada salad. Yummy Thank you Karen for making my husband's birthday so much fun and putting up with my him and his brother's silliness. read more

If you ever make it to Mauna Kea, Olivine is a must-visit. This place has everything going for it: incredible food, attentive and courteous wait staff, and a view that almost steals the show. The dishes are outstanding -- from the flavors to the presentation, everything feels carefully considered and high quality. But beyond the food, what really makes the experience memorable is the service. The wait staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and relaxed, which adds a lot to the overall vibe. Then there's the view. It's hard to overstate how much a beautiful setting can enhance a meal, and at Olivine the scenery is as good as the cuisine. Every visit feels like a special occasion. We go every time we are in Mauna Kea. read more

For a restaurant inside the Grand Wailea, Olivine was a big disappointment. Service was the biggest letdown. One of the servers was outright rude to us for no reason, and the rest of the staff seemed disengaged -- not what you'd expect at a resort of this caliber. The food didn't redeem it either. The oysters were mediocre at best, the olive salad was poorly executed, and my sandwich/salad combo was flat-out bad. Nothing felt fresh or thoughtfully prepared. Between the subpar service and lackluster food, this was not the experience we expected. Will not return. read more

Horrible service. Food even worse. Burnt chilis level food with a price of Merriman's. Nightmare to get to the restaurant. Horrible don't come. Save your money read more

Great restaurant. We're staying at the Grand Wailea and first night we just decided to "eat in". Olivine looked tasty and it was. Got the Linguini and the Spaghetti. Both were wonderful. Along with bread as a quick app. Our waitress was fantastic. Christine?? She couldn't have been better. Only downside is that it's expensive, but everything at this resort is expensive. So plan for that, but also plan for a great meal. Aldo : Make reservations!! Definitely!! read more

Pizza Margherita - very tasty, with a light, thin crust and a satisfying amount of cheese. I missed seeing their squash blossom or charcoal pizza. Wine bottle prices raise an eyebrow with *3 digits* being pretty common. But? Glad they offer better wines, because you have to splurge once in awhile. But huzzah! $18 for a nice pinot grigio is within reach. Oysters sounded amazing but at $36 for a half dozen, eeek! pass. Service was pleasant, even after I changed my drink order, but not really stellar. He did his job, all good. But no suggestions or check-in after food was dropped. Not a big deal but a noticeable difference in service. View was amazing, pleaseant breeze at 4 in the afternoon. I'd return for the ambiance and perhaps try a drink special. read more

The hotel gave us a gift card to use at the restaurant during our stay. We sat by a window and had great views of the pool/ocean. The staff were super friendly. We got the panzanella caesar salad which was nothing special. The margherita pizza which was yummy. If you're a spice lover ask for the Calabrian chili oil- it added the perfect spice kick and flavor to the pizza. read more

It was so nice to relax and enjoy the ocean breeze and the lovely ambiance as we dined at Olivine. I am trying my best to stay away from meat, so I ordered the amazingly delicious Crispy Squash Blossoms. I would describe them as a beautifully delicate, crisp, aromatic dish with burrata, macadamia nut pesto, local hot honey, espelette pepper, and honeycomb. This appetizer was my favorite! I also enjoyed the Mushroom Cauliflower Bolognese, a richly savory, hearty, and wonderfully comforting plate of handmade orecchiette with cashew ricotta and parsley as my main course. I always appreciate and enjoy fresh pasta and veggies. Our server was very kind and attentive, the portion sizes were generous, and although the meal was a bit pricey, the quality and experience made it worthwhile. read more

Spent a night in Maui and dined at Olivine at ~7:15pm for dinner. For an Italian place, their Hamachi was so fresh and delicious (I mean c'mon, we're in Maui-- of course it was fresh!) We shared the Kona Lobster Pizza and Brussel Sprouts. I loved the chunky lobster bits and thinly sliced garlic all around the pizza. And the Brussels were nicely crisp and had a hint of sweetness. Just as we thought our stomachs were full, our server, Christine, recommended the Tiramisu. Sure enough, we gobbled that up, too! --Mahalo Christine! We really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant and the food! Next time, we'll dine before sunset, when there's still light out to enjoy the view read more

I guess I should have read these reviews before choosing Olivine to dine here. The location would be perfect if it wasn't also overlooking the pool. Our server was pleasant but could not make up for the lack of good food. Daily catch was ok at best, chicken was not good at all. Salad meh. Best item were the Brussels sprouts. Not a cheap place to be disappointed in. Hard pass next time. read more

We hit the jackpot with Richard as our server. Between Richard and the Fennel Sausage Pizza we had a near-perfect night! Loved our evening at Olivine. We had a beautiful table at sunset near the window. We started with drinks and a salad. Richard made excellent recommendations and really shared his thoughts behind the creation and flavors of each dish. You can tell he's very passionate and excited about the menu and food offerings. We ordered a salad, two pizzas, a fish entree, a pasta, and a dessert. It doesn't sound like tons, but it was a lot of food. The Fennel Sausage Pizza was my favorite - the humbolt fog was perfect on the pizza. The dessert - a flourless chocolate mousse cake was delicious. Compared to other pricing at the hotel, I really felt like the menu was well-priced and not overly expensive. Excellent service, beautiful restaurant, and delicious food! read more

The food here is delicious. My bf and I utilized both their pool services and went here for dinner and honestly, their pool menu was better than their dinner in my opinion. During our stay, we tried the charcoal pizza, margarita, and squash blossom pizza and honestly, some of the best pizza I've had. Their dough is incredible. Their hummus was also delicious and one of my favorite snacks from the island AND very generous with their portion. It was served with pizza bread and the hummus was h the perfect creamy texture. Dinner was just okay. I got the wagyu bolognese and couldn't eat it because it was so salty but the server did a great job handing it and letting me order something else instead (another pizza of course). The brussel sprouts were also delicious! I love that the atmosphere is more laid back and you have some great views of the sunset. read more

We ate lunch here twice. And because the Fresh Catch Sandwich was SO ONO... we got it both times. The fish was fresh and tender. The bun was melt in your mouth. The chips were super light and crisp with the perfect amount of salt. We sat at the bar both times too since it was easy, open and had TVs showing Football. Both of us (my husband and I) enjoy watching football so it made the most sense for us to sit at the bar. Plus, I like watching the Bartenders in action. Service is very good. The bartenders work as a team and are good at making sure everyone at the bar is take care of while they manage the dining room drink tickets. The kitchen runs your food out directly to you at the bar. We really didn't have to wait long either time for our food. The dining room area has large open windows so the entire restaurant feels like it's outside, but not. The bar is pretty spacious... I think it seats like 20 or so. Olivine also services the Hibiscus Pool which is just steps away. read more

Tasteless pasta. The crispy potatoes were anything but crispy. Had to pay for bread but that actually tasted the best. Not worth the cost read more

I went here for my final night on Maui, and this meal was absolute perfection. We had the burrata caprese for our appartizer, and shared the lobster pizza (on charcoal crust) and the Wagyu bolognese for our entrees. The ambience was great, not very loud. The wait staff we had were excellent and provided great recommendations. This will definitely be on my list to visit again! read more

In all honesty, my family was a little bit disappointed in Olivine. We booked it, excited for a nice meal and were thrown off. The service was fine, but the food lacked - the bolognese had limited flavor and the noodles were undercooked, the chicken piccata was extremely salty, the special of the day was overpowered by the onion. For the price you are paying, I would expect more. read more

I believe this was our first dinner while staying on the property. Italian billed place - we had reservations and showed up prompt. Sat next to the window, which overlooks several pools and outdoor areas. We started off with the caprese salad and for me an old fashioned drink. The salad was interesting - burrata on the bottom of the plate with lettuce on top. Good taste but a little clumsy in terms of execution. For the table we shared a charcoal activated margherita pizza. The charcoal meant that the dough was black which looked odd, but tasted exactly like a regular pizza. The toppings were good and it was easy to eat. For an entree, I ordered the cacio e pepe - which came with a thicker noodles and the sauce was very creamy along with the peppery tones. As a dessert I ordered the panna cotta which was nothing like I expected or desired. Meh. read more

Olivine offers authentic Italian cuisine right in the heart of Maui, and it's nothing short of phenomenal. We were staying at a nearby hotel and were truly impressed by the experience. While the pricing might initially seem a bit high, the generous portions more than justify it. I was so stuffed that I had to take some home! We enjoyed multiple courses, starting with a charcuterie board that paired beautifully with our wine. It featured a variety of meats, including tuna and prosciutto, alongside delicious sautéed pepper jams and goat cheese--truly impressive for three people. My sister ordered the lobster pizza, and I had to try it. The crust was perfectly charred and had a fantastic sourdough texture--absolutely delicious. We also shared the mushroom and truffle pasta, which featured scratch-made noodles cooked to perfect al dente. It was an incredible dish! The traditional spaghetti with shrimp was a highlight as well--the shrimp were enormous and full of flavor. I wished we had added shrimp to the other pasta too! We enjoyed a bottle of Chardonnay from Santa Cruz, and it complemented our dishes perfectly. The staff were amazing, attentive, and genuinely interested in our meal experience. Overall, everything was incredibly delicious, and we couldn't finish our last course because we were so satisfied from sharing all the wonderful dishes. A huge shoutout to the chef--this place is a must-visit when in Maui! Oh, we cannot forget the oysters you have to get them here !!! read more

If I'm being honest, I do not recommend this restaurant. We came here thinking that this would be a nice dinner as it is surrounded by very high-end hotels and ended up being the complete opposite. first of all, we called to see if we can sit closer to the water because we thought the restaurant would be full. Which once we arrived it wasn't and the host we were talking to was just rude. We ordered both a mocktail and one of the cocktails on the menu and both the drinks were not good we couldn't drink them at all. To the point where the waitress noticed and asked if she could take the mocktail off the tab. The pasta we got was decent definitely overpriced for what it was looked like something I could make at home and the pizza we got was very doughy and chewy almost like it had been reheated. Took one bite of it and spit it out. The waitress even came up asking if I liked it because noticed it hadn't been eaten. Overall, the food was disgusting and was extremely disappointed. I would NOT go here. VERY OVERPRICED. read more

At first, we love the hotel. Two years ago, we tried Olivine and the food was good. We had a lunch today (December 31st). What happened ? Food is not good anymore. We had a pizza pepperoni and it was too much sauce for a pizza. It is difficult to make bad pizzas. The mahi-mahi sandwich had a green sauce which was not good. The sauce of the salad was not good. Best thing was the chicken tenders for the kids. Did you change the chef ? If you compare with Ferraro's or Monkeypod, it is NIght or day. The good news, the food at the pool and at botero is very good. Olivine is expensive but I don't mind to pay if the food is good. Please, You need to make some changes. First time that my kids said that the food was not good. For now, AVOID THIS PLACE ! Go if you don't care about the food and you want to have a nice view. read more

The staff and drinks are what makes this place :) Oh, and the incredible beach views from the bar. STEPHANIE and APRIL are the best bartenders ever!

Some other patron at the bar had the meatball and pomodoro pasta which looked incredible. read more

Good Italian restaurant overlooking the pool at the Grand Wailea. This was our first time visiting since they reimagined the restaurant. It was good - Hawaii meets Italy - though TBH, I probably preferred the old menu. I made a reservation on OpenTable and requested outdoor seating. When we arrived at the restaurant, they tried to seat us inside and I objected. Although they had some open windows, it wasn't all open to the outside the way it was previously. We had to wait another 5 minutes to be seated at an outdoor table. Portions were generous. I ordered the seared ahi salad and couldn't finish it all. The salad was very fresh and had quality ingredients, but it was a little too olive-forward for me. My husband ordered the chilled Kona prawns, which we thought would be a very small dish since it only came with 4 prawns, but it was fairly decently sized. My daughter ordered the winning dish - the Olivine charcuterie board. Imo, this was the best marriage of Italian cuisine and local foods. The rosemary toast with the ricotta and starfruit mostarda was out of this world. All in all, a nice dining option. No printed kids menu but your server can offer more kid-friendly options. Personally, I just didn't love the Hawaiian Italian combo as much as I might other cuisines read more

We were starving after a 7 hour flight so upon the recommendation of a staff person we walked into Olivine for lunch while we waited for our room to be ready. Strike 1) the front associate barely spoke or understood English. As a native speaker, this was bizarre to me. Strike 2) the food arrived, but not all of it, and not correct. The staff acted like we were being ridiculous and had the insane attitude. Our server brought me a drink with cookies in it when I told her and ordered GF. I can't believe that an establishment like this can exist on a luxury resort. Strike 3) the worst service! read more

We did their wine pairing and it was a great experience. I recommend it and the price is pretty. You might still be hungry afterwards but you can always reserve a different table to try their regular menu. Ambience was good. They had their wine tasting in a corner so you could listen to what they are explaining. read more

As expected, the environment was stunning, and the views epic. The service was fairly swift and attentive (even though we had a 3 year old with us - the dread of all servers). The Daily Catch was amazing, the Salmon was memorable and even the mini pizza for our young guest was made perfectly. Nice meal and definitely memory, mahalo. read more

I was very disappointed yesterday by the service. The pizza looked very good, unfortunately I didn't get to try any of the food because we sat at the table for 15 minutes without being acknowledged by a server at all. The busser was very prompt and brought water as soon as we got sat, but a server never came. I'm a server at a VERY busy wailea restaurant, so I'm super forgiving and understanding about poor service when the restaurant is busy. But it just wasn't, there were 5 tables sat in the entire restaurant and I saw servers just hanging around. Someone could have at least touched the table and told us they'll be with us in a minute. No one seemed to care as we left, we told a server and she replied with "sorry, I'll let the hostess know". Not sure if we got this treatment because we were locals and not staying at the hotel or what. Super disappointing, won't ever be back. read more

The staff are so friendly and welcoming. It's a great first stop after you get settled in the resort and want a nice drink to begin vacation! All the food was delicious, except for the charcuterie board they offer. It really left a lot to be desired. Otherwise, everything was superb! read more

Olivine is the renovated, rebranded and renamed Italian restaurant formerly known as Bistro Molokini. ATMOSPHERE: Located a level above the poolside at the Grand Wailea Resort, views of the hotel grounds and Pacific are exceptional. Open-air design with traditional and bar-style seating. RESERVATIONS: Currently not needed as the drop in tourism post-wildfires is spooky. MENU: Modern Italian with Pacific Rim & Asian influences. BEVERAGE: Pizzolato Prosecco - $54.00 Fairly smooth. I liked it but the spouse didn't. FOOD: Crispy Squash Blossoms - $26.00 Delicately battered and filled with velvety burrata. The pesto and honey sauces were nice compliments. Wagyu Beef & Malama Pork Meatballs - $32.00 Moist meatballs with a zesty marinara sauce. The bread was a tad hard. Garden Rosemary Foccacia - $16.00 Get this if you want a soft and tasty bread dish. The pesto was fresh & flavorful. Hawaiian Kanpachi - $31.00 We've been having a lot of crudo recently, and I've been loving it everywhere! Here, the combination of salty pancetta, sweet kumquats, crunchy sprouts and brine-y fish was heavenly. Blue Ocean Oysters -$24.00 (6 pcs.) I'm not a raw oyster fan so I didn't have any, but the spouse and our friend enjoyed them. 42 oz. Wagyu Tomahawk - $175.00 Medium rare, moist yet firm, simply seasoned with a great grilled flavor. I've never had fresh truffles at a Maui eatery before. Wagyu Bolognese - $52.00 On recommendation by our server, extra sauce came to the side as it's not a very saucy dish. The portion size was very generous, so don't fret on the price for a pasta selection. I did appreciate the handmade rigatoni's freshness and texture. I've never experienced ground Wagyu before and I loved it. Definitely ask for grated cheese as it'll be the crowning jewel. Rosemary Goat Cheese Polenta - $14.00 If you like grits, you'll enjoy this as it has similar taste & texture. The cheese added nice savoriness and thickness. DESSERT: Olive Oil Cake - $15.00 Very moist, like a good white cupcake. The strawberry gelato, tasty and not overly sweet. Same went for the espresso gelato. SERVICE: Everyone was great. We never felt rushed even though we were the last ones out. OVERALL: Italian restaurants have been slowly disappearing from Hawaii hotels, so it's great to see one still going strong. read more
