- CChristineHawaii •8 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoCasanova has been a favorite go-to dinner restaurant for my girlfriends and myself for many years. We start off with freshly baked focaccia bread, still warm from the oven, cut into easily manageable single serving cubes, served with a generous portion of olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping, and enjoyi our bread while we peruse both the wine offerings and dinner menu. Our choice of wine was a lovely Montepulciano from Italy. Although the antipasti (appetizers) called to us, we bypassed them to save room for the main course. Our entrees this evening included the Mediterranean salad, chock full of crispy fresh greens and veggies, flavorful feta cheese, and kalamata olives in a homemade lemon vinaigrette dressing; Tagliolini Alla Checca, a type of ribbon pasta mixed in with organic spinach, pine nuts, garlic, capers, and fresh Roma tomatoes with a touch of shaved parmesan cheese; and lastly, a classic Italian dish of Fettuccine in a rich creamy sauce—all three of them generous, satisfying servings, leaving no room for dessert. Our waiter Christopher was as charming and efficient as could be, appearing when needed, and leaving us to enjoy our time together without interrupting.More infoCasanova Italian RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Italian• Makawao•4.7
- AAndreaHawaii •13 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoSunday nights are always fun at Mulligan’s! The band is great, and there is dancing and good vibes all around. We are fortunate to have such a great venue to be able to sit outside on the patio and watch the sunset while surrounded by great music and good people is a rare thing. The shepherds pie and bangers and mash are always a hit, and my son raves about the chicken sandwich. Highly recommend this for lace.
