Although the restaurant has a good vibe and the staff is friendly, I do not recommend this place for 3 reasons. First, we got their 12” pizzas unaware that they only come in gluten-free. It was the worst pizza crust I’ve ever had in my 50+ years, although the menu does mention it, It is not very clear and we missed it and our waitress did not confirm if we were OK with gluten-free pizza dough. I’m sure their 14” with regular pizza dough is better, but I cannot be the judge of that since we did not have it. Second, they brought our appetizer and salad after the pizzas. Third, their menu states they charge an automatic 20% gratuity for tables of 6 or more. Our table of 6 was actually charged 22% gratuity instead of 20%, so beware. There are many great food options in Maui, but I would stay clear of this restaurant for the reasons mentioned above.

First time visit with no reservations. Waited less than 10 minutes. The server was polite and knowledgeable and the food was super yummy. There were few gluten free options which was nice.

Gluten free food is really good for breakfast. Good coffee and atmosphere. We went to the breakfast buffet ( twice in a week).

Hands down some of the best Italian food I have ever had - and we found it in Maui! The service was incredible, including the knowledge of our server on what my husband could eat that was gluten free. It is hard to find gluten free bread and Italian food that is good, but all of the food we ate at Matteo's was great.

I researched all of the different luaus in Maui and finally decided on this one. This was definitely worth the money. I'm gluten free (I have an intolerance) and the waiter was so careful about telling me what I could and couldn't have. There were only a few things I couldn't eat, and the rest was safe. I also did not experience any cross contamination symptoms, so I think this luau is a very safe option for those with food allergies. The food was also amazing! Probably our best meal since being in Maui. The waiter was kind and attentive, always being sure to fill up water glasses and explaining what every dish was. As the sun was setting, he even offered to take a photo of our family on my phone right in front of the ocean. The drinks were delicious and the line moved pretty quickly. Each table seats 8 people (maybe more with kids) so my family of 4 sat with 2 families of 2. The show was wonderful; full of humor, excellent music and dancing, and there was an explanation of each dance and how it relates to the Polynesian heritage. We were all so impressed and I 100% recommend this luau.
