La Vita Dolce
This informal, bustling, family-run restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating serves reliably tasty, straightforward Italian fare, from classic pastas and grills—spaghetti and meatballs, portobello-mushroom ravioli, veal piccata—to a small but creative selection of thin-crust pizzas. The Maui Waui pizza with capicola ham, sweet pineapple, and marinara sauce is a local favorite. Daily dinner specials include upscale offerings like baked salmon wellington and New Zealand rack of lamb.
