    First time here and I live on Maui. At first I was craving for pasta, but I seen the menu & was really interested in trying their calzone. Good choice too! Their Calzone was tasty! Will definitely go back!

    In town so I visited THREE different times and was VERY shock when I exam my receipt closer. On one visit I was charge for a paper bag. That's terrible I was not told, no signs,..... The pizza was good and a petty large menu of items to select from. Pissed charge for a bag of a Togo order!!!!

    The best, most authentic New Jersey pizza on the island!! Oh and the cheesecake and the tiramisu is made fresh daily :)

  • Nina G.

    Pros: Free delivery for $20 and up Good customer service over the phone Good food... Really good! Close to Kahului we just waited at least 45 minutes for the food to come to our hotel. Their store was 2 miles away from the hotel, so we wish we should've drove there instead. We ordered the calzone deluxe! Would definitely order again when we come back to Maui!

  • Lindsey N.

    I came here on a hot day to get some calzone but even though i had to wait 15 mins. For it, trust me its well worth it. The guys were awesome, on their game. They didnt forget me & kept me updated on the times. There's no AC in there but just smelling the pizza... Omgeeeee it made me more hungry, lol.

  • Luke S.

    Very satisfied with the pizza they offered! Given that I am from Australia, a lot of the pizza in America is far too greasy for me. This wasn't greasy at all, but still had lots of flavor. Delivery was free over $20 so that worked out perfect.

  • Jennifer W.

    Waited quite a while for my order, but the delivery guy was apologetic and explained the situation to me. The girl on the phone was not when I called to find out. I don't mind waiting for my food, and I understand if it gets busy during dinner, and the pizza really is delicious, so why wouldn't they get busy? Way better than those overpriced, government cheese using joints on front street in Lahaina. On top of that, it's so easy to do Zeppoli wrong (I've had some bad, greasy ones), but these are perfect. I was irritated with the wait, but happy with the food and happy with the delivery guy explaining the wait.

  • Beth K.

    Pros: Delicious food Cons: Hot, long wait, unfriendly staff, inconvenient location I love the food, but the cons outweigh the pros..., what a shame! Will probably not return. ---- Edited Review: I'm bumping my review up from 2 stars to 4. My husband picked us up some pizza and we were both very impressed with how AWESOME it was. Orders go quicker if you phone them in in advance. Still not my first choice to go and have lunch, but definitely better than my first impression.

    Best pizza on Maui. Perfectly thin crust. All the toppings go to the very edge of the pizza so that it's almost completely covered. We had ours half and half - the white pizza on one side and deluxe on the other. All the toppings mixed together well and you could taste all the flavor without one overpowering the other. We also had their chicken wings which were amazing and deliciously spicy with a light ranch sauce to dip it in, and for dessert we had the tiramisu which we enjoyed. And to top it all off, they were able to deliver it to our house and the delivery guy was very friendly. I love Italian food, especially pizza. There are many places on Maui that claim they have the best Italian style pizza or best new York style pizza, but this place lives up to every word they say. I cannot recommend it enough.

  • Louie C.

    Family was craving some pizza after visiting Ioa State Park. Came across this little shop driving down the mountain. Was glad we stopped here. The pizza was hand tossed and tasty. Seating inside is limited with most room outdoors. If your in the area and having a pizza crave like us, I recommend it!

  • Kari D.

    So glad we Yelped this place while we were headed back to Kahana. Agree with some others that the girl who took our order lacked any people skills BUT the pizza was spot on delicious! We will be back!

    We were on our way back from Iao Valley and looking for a good lunch place. After some discussion we decided on Gianottos and we were all pleasantly surprised. Gianottos is a good old local pizza joint right in the middle of maui. Dave the owner is a super cool guy and made us feel right at home. Get two slices if you're hungry, you'll want more! The pizza is tasty, sauce is great, cheese appropriately chewy and gooey. Great prices too the three of us ate for less than 15 bucks. Make sure to stop at 4 sisters bakery afterwards to grab some banana bread or check out the local food court nextdoor. Thanks again Dave.

  • Sarah S.

    Their pizza is yummy, but that's about all I can give them. Staff could have been friendlier, indoor seating was limited, and outdoor seating was covered in bugs (ants all over the tables and termites flying around the front entrance). Couldn't find anywhere to park either, had to park in the street. Again though, the pizza is good but I wish they had small, medium, and large sizes instead of one 16" size for 16 bucks.

  • Holly M.

    If you are looking for a sweet family run joint this is it. Great pizza (by the slice or whole), salads, sandwhich was and lasagna (which can sell out). Thin crust and super tasty. Highly recommend especially if you are noodled or fished out.

  • Maui Yelper Y.

    Just leaving here and had to say that the Pizza was alright but the young local girl working was so rude that I won't be back. I said please, thank you, I smiled, all I got in return was was stink looks and rude service! Whoever owns this place can do better than that!

  • Lu R.

    My husband and I ate the Philly Cheese steaks and fries. Both were delicious. I thought the service was great. The owner came out to the table to ask how we were. The place seemed to have a steady flow of people on a Friday night, mostly takeout. Planning to come back for a pizza.

    (5)
  • Marissa H.

    Two words, mouth-watering. I traveled often to Maui for business. Two trips in a row, I made an effort to stop here and have lunch. I had the special the Philly cheesesteak sandwich, fries, and a drink. The Philly sandwich was great. Its covered in Mozzarella cheese and it taste so good!!!! Definitely recommend this place!

  • Verns V.

    My mother and I walked in, took a while to order because I'm usually disappointed by pizza outside of NY. But David, the owner, walked up to us told us he was from Jersey, told us the meatballs were his grandmother's recipe. And then he had us try the meatballs, and then the tiramisu, and of course, the cheesecake. I was already sold when he introduced himself to us. I ordered two slices: one cheese, one deluxe. -- Filling, fresh, and the cheese was perfect. My mom ordered a philly cheesteak and said it tasted like the ones back home. We're a family who grew up all over the East Coast and this place does not disappoint. I intend to visit this place often now that I found a slice of home.

  • Valeria F.

    I liked it cus I liked the guy I came here with..but it was also good food! And I remember it being super hot inside..but they have tables outside which are neat, and the staff (couple? who prepare food and man the register) are friendly. I got the Italian sandwich and it was bit greasy but pretty delicious! Also - Wailuku is a ghost town on Saturdays and this place is one of the few (along with the record store) still open - so major props for that!

    (3)
  • Donna E.

    As someone who is 100% Italian and was raised in NJ I can say that the food here is the real deal!! Fresh ingredients nd a great recipe make their pizza taste like pizza does in NY and NJ. But if you order the meatballs you are in for an even bigger treat...the best you will ever eat, bar none (apologies to my own Italian relatives)! PS the cheesecake is amazing too!

    (5)
  • Ashley M.

    This place a was wonderful surprise for lunch. We ended up here when another restaurant was closed for lunch. The only negative was there was only one person making all the food and we had to wait a bit for service, although he did greet us and told us he would be with us as soon as possible. Other than that, this place was so cute and so good! We ordered two subs, the turkey and Italian. Another worker came in and took our order. He was funny, warm, and inviting. The pop here is refillable, which is something we haven't found at other places. The fries are golden-brown and crisp! Such a wonderful place for lunch!

    Good, inexpensive, and fast pizza. Varied choices by the slice or order a whole pie. Other menu options too. Try the tiramisu.....it's great.

  • Mark S.

    I didn't close my eyes and think I was in Manhattan when I was eating here...but this pizza can definitely hold its own! I got a veggie pizza with artichoke hearts, and unlike most places, they were very generous with the toppings. The only downside is not having beer on the menu.

  • Angela W.

    My husband and I stopped here in search of good Italian calzones and lasagna. And did we find it! Delicious food and good conversation with the staff and owner! A true diamond on the rough!!!

    The worst pizza. The crust was burnt and tasted like cardboard. We ordered from Giannotto's because of all the good reviews on Yelp. But I will never order pizza from there again.

    (1)
  • Dennis O.

    We had a meat pizza and a white sauce pizza, both were very good. Sort of NY style, thin, but not as crispy as I like. Great flavor. They over charged us about $6, but the receipt was just credit card, so hard to confirm. Definitely worth visiting, just pay better attention than we did.

    (4)
  • Brian S.

    Great pizza. The owner (Dave) certainly had a lot of Jersey in him still but he was the nicest guy. You can tell he really loves his place. He kind of reminded me of a soup nazi type guy at first but then he warmed up and told us about his family in Jersey, ECT. They were packed on a Sunday night and our kids loved the pizza.

    Legit pizza place in Maui! David gives the best customer service ever, authentic and as I call it legit

    The owner has his heart in this business. ..the best service and the food. ...yeah you may have to wait a minute for service but think about it, if it was your business would you hire just anybody. .. he trays you add if you family from the very first time. . For the price of whatever you gonna order will come with awesome service and food.

  • Aldo B.

    Good pie though a bit on the greasy side with large slices (NY Style)...but tasty. Had a greek salad which was average and my folks had a turkey sandwich that they enjoyed. For pizza on the island I'd say it's the best in town.

  • Michelle N.

    Excellent food and service. The Eggplant fettuccine is awesome and my boyfriend had the fettuccine with sausage. Lots of food and flavor. Give it a try, you won't be sorry!

    Food delicious, but take out was horrible. They burnt the chicken on the pasta, no utensils or napkins. Even forgot an order. I'd order there in person, but never have it delivered.

    Wonderful, fast, very fresh and very good. Dave, the owner, introduced himself to us, and was very personable. Get the mozzarella sticks and a cheesecake.

  • Erica H.

    This is a great stop for a good meal. So far I've had a few types of pizza, meatball sandwich, and Philly cheesesteak. My favorite is the meatball sub surprisingly because I've never liked them at other places and I'm not a meatball lover. My husband's favorite is the loaded philly cheesesteak. They are all good though, you won't go wrong either way unless you don't order the cheesecake for dessert. It is fabulous! We even order here for our staff training lunches because it's delicious and they deliver. The owner Dave couldn't be nicer.

  • Rebekah M.

    Went in for lunch today. Hubby had canzone and I had the special: cheese slice, Greek salad, and soda. It was quick and good! Lots of veggies in the salad (artichokes too!!). Authentic, quick and cheap. Go here.

  • Mariah D.

    Checked this place out with the kidlets tonight - was ono! We had fun sitting outside and watching the cars pass. The cheese pizza was really good. My middle son usually eats half a slice and is done but tonight he ate FIVE slices of pizza (side note - the owner was totally awesome. He cut the whole pizza into smaller slices for the kids to handle easily). Great spot - will be back!

    I order the lasagne one Friday night. Had the dinner special and it wasn't bad. Saturday night tools around and hey let's order the Saturday night dinner special lasagna and the owner want in. The daughter was working. I'm like gear she's in the culinary program, her lasagna should be excellent. How disappointed. Over cooked noodles in Luke warm pizza sauce and some Italians sausage. It was horrible. Mahalo Vic

    My hubby and I were on Maui for a little weekend getaway from Oahu and had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Dave Giannotto at our very first visit to this fine Italian restaurant on Sunday night, 6/15/2014. We ate here for dinner. From the minute we entered his restaurant, he greeted us very warmly and made us feel like family. There were so many different things that we had wanted to try but we ended up ordering a deluxe whole 16 inch pizza to share between the two of us, needless to say, we polished up the WHOLE pizza! The crust is tasty and perfectly chewy with a crisp and light surface firm enough at the bottom to support the weight of the generous amounts of toppings added to the pie. For our deluxe pizza, we had a generous amount of cheese, pepperoni, sausage, olives, green pepper, tomato, and onions. The tomato sauce is very flavorful and perfectly seasoned with the right amount of herbs and spices which complemented the toppings and crust very well. When the pizza arrived at our table, it was piping hot and cooked to perfection! Dave is a genuinely nice guy who takes the time to explain his menu items and makes suggestions as to what you may want to try, especially if it's your first time, as it was ours. He also took the time to come to our table and chat with us not only about how we felt about his food, but he also takes the time to get to know you on a personal level as well. There is a true sincerity here and you really do feel welcomed and like a part of his family while you're here. You will definitely taste his families legacy and love for food with every bite you take. It's hard to find places where you can taste a families rich history and love for food these days, so eating here was a true treat! Our only regret that night was that we did not leave enough room for dessert! After polishing off a 16 inch pie between the two of us, we just could not do it! The pizza was just too good to stop! All of the desserts are homemade, which include tiramisu, cheescake, cannoli, and zeppoli's. We will be sure to save enough room for dessert next time! Giannotto's Pizzaria is totally legit and has bomb pizza's! This pizza was by far, one of the best pizzas that we've had ever! We travel a bit and have eaten some bomb pizza's in our lifetime and we can confidently say that eating Dave's pizza is a pleasantly memorable experience and is right up there with our favorite pizza's to eat! The next time we visit from Oahu, we will be sure to make a stop here again! The next time you're on Maui, make sure to stop here for meal, you definitely won't regret it! We're definitely going to be refering our friends and family to Giannotto's!

  • Mighty M.

    Our very picky family of 5 loved this place. Highlights were the Philly cheese steak (A+), white sauce pizza (addictive, probably because of the garlic), and the cheesecake (best texture we've had). The place is authentic, family run, and a real diamond in the rough. Way better than Shaka's which is much better known on the island.

    If you like thin crust authentic pizza then you'll like this place. Just took 10 pizza's back to work. We all thought the pizza was amazing. Best pizza I've had in Hawaii and probably the 2nd best pizza I've ever had. Great thin crust and the toppings we're excellent as well.

    The best customer service I've ever received at a restaurant. The owner and staff are all very friendly and kind. They treat their customers like good friends. The food is DELICIOUS. I've tried the pizza, the calzone, and the chicken alfredo, I highly recommend them all.

  • Jean P.

    Came into Giannotto's for the first time a couple days ago. Mr. Giannotto welcomed us into his restaurant and treated us as if we were long lost friends. And the pizza! We are real pizza lovers and we must say this is some of the best pizza we have ever eaten. And we are originally from the pizza capital of the world, New York City. Their cheesecake is authentic New York style, and we have never tasted any better. If you love pizza and you are on Maui, you've got to give this place a try. Jets fans from Rhode Island

    Lucky to have found this place after a hike on our way back to the hotel. Authentic east coast food...highly recommend the steak and cheese, slice of pepperoni (with real pepperoni!) and tiramisu that was outstanding!! Dave the owner is true Jersey guy, super friendly and makes delicious food!

    (5)
  • Linda J.

    Went here last night and had a calzone and tried the New York style cheesecake. OMG, the cheesecake is amazing, and the calzone was delicious too! Can't wait to go back and try the pizza. This is the real deal. The owner is from New Jersey and uses his mom's authentic Italian recipes. Try this place, be sure to try the cheesecake, you will be addicted, I promise!!!

    Found this place through Yelp and it was fantastic...Giovanni was so friendly and welcoming - and the food was outstanding...it's a true east coast, Italian menu. Highly recommend the meatball sandwich and the Greek salad. We will make this a regular stop whenever we're on Maui...thanks, Giovanni!

    We were surprised to find such seriously good pizza in this sleepy little town. The owner was incredibly kind and hospitable towards us weary cyclists who were making our way slowly around the West Maui mountains by bicycle. Such a treat! Thanks for the delicious slices, cold sodas, clean restrooms, and of course the extra friendliness! PS: That was really good cheese.

  • Michele J.

    We picked this place because we saw it was super close to us and had some great reviews. We each ordered a slice of meat pizza. (Ham, meatballs, salami... Sounds yumm!) the boys behind the counter are super nice and it smells amazing!! The slice wasn't very big for $4 but here goes nothing... So warm and delicious!!!! Spicy but perfect bread to meat and sauce!!

    My wife and I were on our 10 year anniversary and after visiting the IAO state park (Amazing beautiful park) we were hungry. It was a Sunday and we tried to find a place in Wailuka but we could not find anywhere (non-chain) that was open on Sunday. We then turned the corner and found Giannotto's. My taste buds did hand springs! The place has a real decent sized interior which was surprising. There is a very nice covered area in front that has nice canvas shades and even flowers for a very relaxed atmosphere. I had a craving for a calzone. The owner (Dave) was one of the nicest guys you could hope for and provided great detail about his calzone. My wife ordered a Chicken Caesar salad. I have had my share of "specialty" calzones in my day and more often than not they are more like a cheese filled deflated football. The balance is often more of a hunt for the few pieces of meat. This was the BEST calzone I had ever tasted! The balance of ingredients and spices was perfect. He even uses homemade meatballs. I even took pictures to share with other family members that frequent Maui to add it to our "must see" list. Just when you think "wow that was amazing" Dave comes by and informs us he made fresh Cannoli's this morning. Well that was a no brainer and ordered two! They came served on very visually appealing chocolate sauce decorated chilled plate. Very impressive! The looks matched their taste perfectly. They were very good. Dave has a real gem here and the pride in his restaurant doesn't come across as arrogance in any way. He is a very humble guy and wanted to do everything possible to make our lunch as enjoyable as possible. The food was off the charts. Dave's friendliness and genuine customer focus was very refreshing, and the best experience we encountered during our 10 day stay. I just wish I could post the amazing pictures that I took. Prepare your taste buds for a real celebration of flavor. Dave & Heather Hofman

    This place is amazing! Been here in Maui a few times and loved it. The Pizza is really great tasting and I think the best on the Island! We had a layover in Maui and just had to come over and get some Pizza from here. The customer service is awesome to us, pricing is good and loved the Cheesecake as well. Every time I'm in Maui I make it a point to come here.

  • Michelle V.

    Seriously the BEST pizza on the island. And we live here & have tried many other places. Crust is not too thick or thin. We get the veggie & add meatballs & extra cheese. It's bomb. Delivery is a little slow, but it's worth it.

    Always nice to see a business from the NY area do well. I ordered 2 pizzas on a First Friday (forgot about the street fair). No worries----I ordered my two pizza's and navigated past the band (playing there for First Friday). They (the pizza's) were great. The owner also gave me a taste of their tiramasu---OMG. Just like NY !!! Give this local spot a try---you will like it alot. Cheers.....

    So I have to start out by saying that I lived in New Jersey for a solid five years during college/my early 20s.. This place is effing LEGIT. We were staying down the block at Northshore Hostel and was recommended Gionnatto's by someone else staying at the hostel. My friend and I, her being from Jersey and me having lived there for awhile, decided to check it out and see if it was the real deal. I was instantly had a good feeling about my order (two slices w/ mushrooms) when I saw him pull two already made slices off the rack and started prepping them. Yes I thought! This is how we do pizza! While we waited for our order we checked out some of the pictures and articles on the wall, only to realize that everything was from Newark NJ. Having lived in Newark for two years of my time in Jersey, I had to ask the owner about the pictures.. lo and behold! They are actually real Jersey people, living in Maui and making real Italian food! I'm not kidding you, this place would get the same reviews in Jersey.. it is legit! The pizza was fantastic! Just how pizza should be! Thin crust, tasty sauce, fresh toppings. I decided to spring for a slice of tira misu as well and it was equally amazing. I don't live in Jersey anymore so it was extra amazing to get a taste of the kind of pizza I had grown accustomed to, and now I miss it up there even more. If I'm ever in Maui again, Giannatto's is top of my list!

    ATMOSPHERE: They're attached to the Main Street Promenade building. It's a simple, open air shop with a few seats indoors and out. FOOD: Shrimp Alfredo - Opted for linguine pasta. The sauce wasn't the greatest and tasted like it came out of a bottle. The 5 pieces of shrimp were good. Pizza - The owner was nice enough to let us sample a slice while waiting for our order. The crust was on the thinner side, crunchy & chewy, and had great flavor. SERVICE: The owner is a cool cat. Very friendly and professional. OVERALL: Very good pizza, okay pastas.

    Was looking for a quick bite to eat before going to the airport. This is only 5 minutes away from the airport, so great location. Food is good and the owner was extremely hospitable and nice - good Italian guy. The tiramisu they make in house and is the best tiramisu I have ever had. Glad we found this little pizza place - good local business. Would definitely make a side trip to eat here next time I'm in Maui! Greek salad was great too. Pizza by the slice is nice, so you don't have to get a full pizza.

  • Betty O.

    This is the first time I've ever written a Yelp review -- my husband and I were so thoroughly charmed by both the excellent dinner and by Dave, the owner, that I decided this would be my first one. We shared the lasagna (homemade meatballs), garlic bread, and a Greek salad -- all delicious, huge portions. Dave insisted we save room for homemade desserts -- when my husband told him I didn't care for tiramisu, he brought the entire baking dish out to our table to give us each a taste! I was sold... we also ordered a slice of the chocolate cheesecake. Moments later Dave came out bearing a plate with both desserts and half a dozen fresh, hot zeppole, fried bread dough coated in powdered sugar. Divine! There were few people when we got there just a day after the twin hurricane threat had dissipated, so Dave took the time to talk with us about his business and his family ties back in New Jersey. He and everyone else working there were super friendly and helpful. I wish we were staying longer in Wailuku so we could go back and try the pizzas and fresh cannoli!

    Very rarely do I leave a restaurant kissing the owner, but Dave is so friendly, and such an exceptional owner. You can tell he's very proud of his business, and he has every right to be! Had a pie with half sausage, half meatball, onions, mushrooms, and extra cheese, and it was delicious. Chewy crust, delicious sausage, sweet onions. Started with an Italian salad that was more than enough for two people. This is our first day in Maui, but I know this will not be our only visit to Gionnatto's.

  • Jay B.

    I love this place! The owner is always very friendly, and helpful! He must have said Thank you 5 or 6 times in the short time we were there! Great food and great service is hard to come by now days. And this place delivers both! great little spot in Old Wailuku Town! I would give it more stars than 5 if I had the opportunity!

  • Jillian S.

    Great tasting food where you wouldn't expect it! Probably the most authentic Italian food I've ever had and the employees are very sweet. The owner came and personally asked how the food was and was very welcoming to the restaurant. Definitely would be a go-to spot if I lived here, so with that I recommend to everyone in the area!

  • Chase R.

    The food is good enough. Nothing special about the sauce, spices, or crust. However, because pizza options on Maui are so bleak, if you're in the area this is the best you're going to do. Food is overprice and the salads are small. However, their cannolis are pretty good and worth the average cost. Also, be careful about delivery. It's usually cold when its gets to you. They have no way of Keeping it warm.

    REAL DEAL EAST COAST PIZZA AND CHEESE STEAKS - We stopped at this place when we saw a line out the door at lunch. We had salad, pizza slices, and cheese steaks for lunch. Dave (the owner) great guy from New Jersey really cares about his customers. He has his rolls delivered from Amoroso's in Philadelphia. Anyone who is from the East Coast know these rolls are the real deal! Cheese Steak - GREAT! Forget Pat's and Genos.... Pizza- great east Coast pizza with thin crust, great cheese, just the right amount of sauce.... We had lunch, then came back later and ordered food to go for dinner. I got lasagna and it was just AWESOME!! We liked it so much we came back for lunch again the next day. He also has a Tiramisu he makes from scratch that is EXCELLENT! By far the best Pizza on Maui if you want East coat style.

    My uncle brought home there specialty 3 meat pizza the other day with some hot wings.. The pizza didn't taste good at all this time... Had no taste wasn't enough cheese was very salty tasting.. The wings were horrible I took 1 bite and had to spit it out it was like a breaded wing but it was all soggy and just gross.. So I dunno I guess this place isn't consistent.. The first time I really enjoyed the pizza...

    "Meh. I've had better." We came to this place because it was closest to our hotel. The deluxe calzone was smaller than a burrito at chipotles. This is after the guy mentioned we could share the calzone. A calzone from NY where we are from is 10 times better. I mean it would take an idiot to mess up cheese, sauce, bread, and veggies in making a calzone. I would not come back. sorry!

    I can't even begin to describe how good this place is. I've never been impressed with restaurant italian. I feel I can make better at home. Giannotto's is CRAZY GOOD!!! This is probably the one place I've vowed to try something different every time I go. So far, I've personally had the calzone and meatball sub. I've tasted the fettucini and veggie sub. And, let's not forget the cheesecakes and tiramisu. I've never really been a fan of tiramisu, but this is quite incredible. Don't even get me started on the cheesecake. I make a pretty mean cheesecake myself, and this may have even been better than mine. It's a small, hole-in-the-wall, type place that can be easily overlooked. Seriously amazing food that I highly recommend!!!!

    We had a very good greek salad and a mediocre piece of pizza. The garlic bread was very soft and delicious. My husband had a calzone, which he enjoyed. Overall, a worthwhile place to eat.

    I was actually feeling more plate lunch food as I was passing by, but I figured I check this place out. The owner David TOLD us we have to try here and forget about the other places. David was a super outgoing, friendly, talkative guy, and he took time to greet everyone in the store and thanked them. I looked around the crowd and I could tell they were all happy customers. He claimed that all his food is fresh made and don't even try bothering with the other restaurants near by. He kept going on and on and on....so we were like alright let's try it. They have a variety of "New York" style pizza from pepperoni to meaty pizza to vegetarian. You can get them by the slice or whole. They also have special New York style sub sandwich like Philly Cheese and Meatball Sandwich. I tried the day's special: Philly Cheese and man the sandwich was awesome! The pizza slice looked a little on the small side for about $3 a slice. My coworker had 2 slices and I think I would've been still hungry. The sandwich came with fries which were crunch and delicious. While we were waiting for the food David was still going around all his customers making sure they were ok and not waiting too long. To top it off, David the owner came by our table, thanked us for deciding to stay, and dropped off a plate of his special Tiramisu on the house. The Tiramisu was super good. At any rate, I have to say customer service at its best! The food is pretty decent and an excellent place to have lunch. If you live in Maui or stopping by - check this place out!

    I've been here many times and I order the Greek salad. David gianotto does a great job. Everytime I go there, and he already recognizes me and always give exceptional customer service. Whether if I haven't been there for days or even weeks! However, when it came to this other worker, she was very rude. I went in and she was on the phone and was being a real b. I tried to be nice to her but she didn't care. After she completed my order she snapped at the other co worker yelling out ok I'm leaving now! In a very rude tone. To this day, I refuse to walk in unless David is there. I really loved their Greek salad and how authentic it is. since that incident, I rather not go in before that girl would be in a rude awakening. It's sad to see that place is a great restaurant and the food is good enough to eat it as a daily lunch but it just took one worker to ruin the business. Talk about quality customer service.

  • Amy F.

    Really great pizza. The way a true authentic pie should be. Amazing crust, thin and flavorful. Good service. The owner really seemed to care that we had a good experience. A nice locally owned place that deserves to be supported!

  • Sheri M.

    I'm an East Coast girl and this pizza instantly reminded me of home. Giant, thin crust, and cooked to perfection. We arrived near closing time and they were still very friendly and accommodating. Since they were cleaning up for the night, we ate outside. They wiped down the table and seats for us (it had rained that day), and even came outside to refill our drinks while we happily munched away. Not bad service considering they could have just turned us away!

    Had these guys deliver to us over a lunch meeting...good stuff! Being in Hawaii, and in particular on Maui, we don't really eat Italian food, unless we make it ourselves. Ever since Pizza Hut got into the pasta biz, we tend to overlook the inception of even American-Italian and go straight for the imitation by-products we have in our proximity. I didn't expect the food to be high quality, but I was pleasantly surprised by our lunch; though I did expect the portions to be a lot longer. It is what it says, an "East coast style" pizza joint in that it is very hearty, rather salty food. (West coast Italian that I am used to seems different). Great menu selection, most of us had trouble deciding what to order. Out of all the food we selected, I would say the calzone looked the best (and most authentic EC Italian, with a true "dough" crust not like the pie crust calzones you see so many places, and with FRESH mozzarella and ricotta cheeses) with the chicken parm sub in close second. The Italian salad was a pretty good deal, the chicken ceasar...not so much. I had two slices of pizza and a side of Italian-style meatballs, which were decent but pricy for the size. As far as the pizza goes the cheese slice was average and the white veggie slice was above average and probably would have been closer to awesome if it was hot (we had it delivered, so of course it wasn't restaurant hot). Wish we could have got dessert as a co-worker said the tiramisu is most excellent but everybody was stuffed. Very satisfying lunch option! Good that delivery to central Maui is free with $20 order. c: But I docked them from 3.5 to 3 stars because of the styrofoam containers...come on, go biodegradable...makes the food taste better when it's not in toxic polystyrene!

    Being from New Jersey, this is as good as it gets even in New Jersey/New York. Was extremely surprised to find this place in a small town in Maui. I've been living in Arizona for the last eight years and haven't had pizza this good in the whole Phoenix area. The owner, Dave is a really nice guy too. If you're from the east coast and want good pizza, go out of your way to come here.

    Great for a slice of life. Thin crust. Great toppings. Worth the Trip. Stop on your way to the airport. Better then the _ _ _ _ they try to serve you on the airplane home.

  • Holan N.

    Giannotto's is a place with great personality. To my surprise, the person taking the orders was the owner. After seeing all the pictures on the wall, it's always nice to see an owner operated business with lots of history. I ordered a Philly cheese steak hot sub. It was great. The place feels like home. From the food, the place, and the people, you can tell Mr. Giannato takes pride in what he does. Had I known pizzas or sandwiches better, Giannato's seems like the place to make it just the way you order it. Overall, I had a great experience. Gianatto's offered more than food to fill your stomach. They provided a good time. Isn't that what eating out is about?

  • Macy R.

    Giannotto's is 3.5-4 stars for me. I did a Google search on the place when I was looking for local pizza around Kahului. Visited their website and saw that they won some awards. We were immediately struck by the character that is David Giannotto. If you decide to eat here, just eat in. He is an interesting guy who cares about his food and his customers. He was very generous with having us try samples of desserts and his homemade meatballs. We got the 16-inch deluxe and were able to exchange some of the toppings with no questions or problems. It's BYOB, so we brought in a bottle of red wine. It was just an all-around good experience. Good pizza, oreo NY-style cheesecake, and service.

  • Bill K.

    The wife and I passed by here on our way to Iao Valley looking for a place for lunch. We saw the sign "Food Court" and I was hooked by the sign for Giannotto's. We parked, and wandered thru the little ethnic food court. David (owner) hinted to us as we were looking over the offerings that we'd be better off at his place. I nudged my wife into trying it. He was right. I ordered a slice of the "meat pizza", the wife had a salad. The salad was huge, full of good, fresh veggies. My pizza appeared to be a slice of cheese pizza that had the toppings put on it then heated. It also was pretty good. Wailuku is lucky to have this place. As others have noted, David greeted us with a handshake and made sure twice that we were satisfied. I gave him a thumbs up on our way out. I wish I'd ordered two slices.

    Best Greek Salad in Town. I work in Wailuku and will not go anywhere else for greek salad. Crips, delicious, tasty and plentiful. Two garlic bread pieces included. The owner is excellent in customer service. Doesn't get 5 stars, however, b/c I think the pizza is so-so, for the price.

  • Amie E.

    David is awesome and so is his pizza. We stopped here on our way to the airport back to NY and wish we would have gone sooner. He is born and bred in NJ and his food is excellent. I highly recommend Giannotto's and would make sure you stop by for really good NY style pizza. My boys loved the food and especially David!!!

    Good new york style pizza. We love the crust and the sauces. Slices are made to order any time during the day. Friendly staff, especially the hard working owner. Eating inside sure is hot though!

  • Rotini R.

    Good pizza for Hawai`i. The owner is from the east coast. He's a real nice guy and a hard worker, and if you say hi to him once he will likely remember you if you come back. Giannattos has all the classics from a traditional pizza and sub shop you can find on the east coast (hoagies, pizza slices, greek salads, pasta). The subs are greasy and tasty. The pizza slices, however, are rather small - a little dissapointment, but the taste is good. Prices are decent for Hawai`i and, considering there are few if any real pizza shops in Maui, a good place to go if you are craving a sub and a slice in Wailuku area.

    (4)
  • Nancy F.

    A great little pizzaria right off the hwy. Excellent pizza with a crispy crust and not oily at all. Nice topping choices too. The greek salad was a good size, enough to share for 2-3 people. The owner is from Jersey (you can tell by the fun photos and posters on the wall), and such a nice guy. It was like eating in someone's kitchen. Would definitely go back if in the area again.

  • Garrett W.

    2.5 stars Giannotto's is located in the Wailuku Promenade building. It's a popular lunch stop for the business crowd in the area, but I ordered take-out dinner because my dad was craving pasta. I called them up and asked for a simple spaghetti with bolognese sauce and the girl taking orders didn't know what bolognese is. So don't expect anything gourmet, but just hearty pizza (I ordered the pineapple and ham), a limited selection of pasta (they had run out of pesto by that time too), and some tasty-looking (I didn't have any) Italian treats like cannoli (?) and tiramisu.

    As a new yorker visiting Maui it was awesome to find a solid little pizzeria. David Giannotto was friendly and is staying true to his New York roots and his mom's old recipes. The food was excellent and well priced. I recommend the chicken park sub and the homemade cheesecake.

  • s c.

    I called Giannotto's because I heard an ad on the radio with specials....I didn't actually eat here because I couldn't get past the phone call to place an order. The man who answered the phone said, "how can I help you?' I was shocked that he didn't start with saying the name of the store first of all........I asked if there were any specials and he repeated me....."do we have any specials?" Then he said, "I don't know...what do you want?" I couldn't even find out what they had at the place to make an order! I take it they don't have any specials.

  • Susan A.

    I ordered a slice and imagined it would be a slice from an already made pizza - I was even doing to accept a slice that had been warmed in the pizza oven. What I got was a generic cheese slice with a FEW vegetables put on top and then put through the oven. The only positive thing I can say is that the veggies were fresh. Do not have pizza here - my friends ordered sandwiches and seemed pretty happy with their selections. The place could use a good cleaning.

    Pros: Delicious food Cons: Hot, long wait, unfriendly staff, inconvenient location I love the food, but the cons outweigh the pros..., what a shame! Will probably not return. ---- Edited Review: I'm bumping my review up from 2 stars to 4. My husband picked us up some pizza and we were both very impressed with how AWESOME it was. Orders go quicker if you phone them in in advance. Still not my first choice to go and have lunch, but definitely better than my first impression.

    In town so I visited THREE different times and was VERY shock when I exam my receipt closer. On one visit I was charge for a paper bag. That's terrible I was not told, no signs,..... The pizza was good and a petty large menu of items to select from. Pissed charge for a bag of a Togo order!!!!

    Pros: Free delivery for $20 and up Good customer service over the phone Good food... Really good! Close to Kahului we just waited at least 45 minutes for the food to come to our hotel. Their store was 2 miles away from the hotel, so we wish we should've drove there instead. We ordered the calzone deluxe! Would definitely order again when we come back to Maui!

  • Lindsey N.

    I came here on a hot day to get some calzone but even though i had to wait 15 mins. For it, trust me its well worth it. The guys were awesome, on their game. They didnt forget me & kept me updated on the times. There's no AC in there but just smelling the pizza... Omgeeeee it made me more hungry, lol.

    (5)
  • Luke S.

    Very satisfied with the pizza they offered! Given that I am from Australia, a lot of the pizza in America is far too greasy for me. This wasn't greasy at all, but still had lots of flavor. Delivery was free over $20 so that worked out perfect.

    (4)
  • Jennifer W.

    Waited quite a while for my order, but the delivery guy was apologetic and explained the situation to me. The girl on the phone was not when I called to find out. I don't mind waiting for my food, and I understand if it gets busy during dinner, and the pizza really is delicious, so why wouldn't they get busy? Way better than those overpriced, government cheese using joints on front street in Lahaina. On top of that, it's so easy to do Zeppoli wrong (I've had some bad, greasy ones), but these are perfect. I was irritated with the wait, but happy with the food and happy with the delivery guy explaining the wait.

  • Christian D.

    Best pizza on Maui. Perfectly thin crust. All the toppings go to the very edge of the pizza so that it's almost completely covered. We had ours half and half - the white pizza on one side and deluxe on the other. All the toppings mixed together well and you could taste all the flavor without one overpowering the other. We also had their chicken wings which were amazing and deliciously spicy with a light ranch sauce to dip it in, and for dessert we had the tiramisu which we enjoyed. And to top it all off, they were able to deliver it to our house and the delivery guy was very friendly. I love Italian food, especially pizza. There are many places on Maui that claim they have the best Italian style pizza or best new York style pizza, but this place lives up to every word they say. I cannot recommend it enough.

    Family was craving some pizza after visiting Ioa State Park. Came across this little shop driving down the mountain. Was glad we stopped here. The pizza was hand tossed and tasty.

    We were on our way back from Iao Valley and looking for a good lunch place. After some discussion we decided on Gianottos and we were all pleasantly surprised. Gianottos is a good old local pizza joint right in the middle of maui. Dave the owner is a super cool guy and made us feel right at home. Get two slices if you're hungry, you'll want more! The pizza is tasty, sauce is great, cheese appropriately chewy and gooey. Great prices too the three of us ate for less than 15 bucks. Make sure to stop at 4 sisters bakery afterwards to grab some banana bread or check out the local food court nextdoor. Thanks again Dave.

  • Sarah S.

    Their pizza is yummy, but that's about all I can give them. Staff could have been friendlier, indoor seating was limited, and outdoor seating was covered in bugs (ants all over the tables and termites flying around the front entrance). Couldn't find anywhere to park either, had to park in the street. Again though, the pizza is good but I wish they had small, medium, and large sizes instead of one 16" size for 16 bucks.

  • Holly M.

    If you are looking for a sweet family run joint this is it. Great pizza (by the slice or whole), salads, sandwhich was and lasagna (which can sell out). Thin crust and super tasty. Highly recommend especially if you are noodled or fished out.

    Just leaving here and had to say that the Pizza was alright but the young local girl working was so rude that I won't be back. I said please, thank you, I smiled, all I got in return was was stink looks and rude service! Whoever owns this place can do better than that!

    My husband and I ate the Philly Cheese steaks and fries. Both were delicious. I thought the service was great. The owner came out to the table to ask how we were. The place seemed to have a steady flow of people on a Friday night, mostly takeout. Planning to come back for a pizza.

    Two words, mouth-watering. I traveled often to Maui for business. Two trips in a row, I made an effort to stop here and have lunch. I had the special the Philly cheesesteak sandwich, fries, and a drink. The Philly sandwich was great. Its covered in Mozzarella cheese and it taste so good!!!! Definitely recommend this place!

  • Verns V.

    My mother and I walked in, took a while to order because I'm usually disappointed by pizza outside of NY. But David, the owner, walked up to us told us he was from Jersey, told us the meatballs were his grandmother's recipe. And then he had us try the meatballs, and then the tiramisu, and of course, the cheesecake. I was already sold when he introduced himself to us. I ordered two slices: one cheese, one deluxe. -- Filling, fresh, and the cheese was perfect. My mom ordered a philly cheesteak and said it tasted like the ones back home. We're a family who grew up all over the East Coast and this place does not disappoint. I intend to visit this place often now that I found a slice of home.

  • Valeria F.

    I liked it cus I liked the guy I came here with..but it was also good food! And I remember it being super hot inside..but they have tables outside which are neat, and the staff (couple? who prepare food and man the register) are friendly. I got the Italian sandwich and it was bit greasy but pretty delicious! Also - Wailuku is a ghost town on Saturdays and this place is one of the few (along with the record store) still open - so major props for that!

    (3)
  • Donna E.

    As someone who is 100% Italian and was raised in NJ I can say that the food here is the real deal!! Fresh ingredients nd a great recipe make their pizza taste like pizza does in NY and NJ. But if you order the meatballs you are in for an even bigger treat...the best you will ever eat, bar none (apologies to my own Italian relatives)! PS the cheesecake is amazing too!

    (5)
  • Ashley M.

    This place a was wonderful surprise for lunch. We ended up here when another restaurant was closed for lunch. The only negative was there was only one person making all the food and we had to wait a bit for service, although he did greet us and told us he would be with us as soon as possible. Other than that, this place was so cute and so good! We ordered two subs, the turkey and Italian. Another worker came in and took our order. He was funny, warm, and inviting. The pop here is refillable, which is something we haven't found at other places. The fries are golden-brown and crisp! Such a wonderful place for lunch!

    I didn't close my eyes and think I was in Manhattan when I was eating here...but this pizza can definitely hold its own! I got a veggie pizza with artichoke hearts, and unlike most places, they were very generous with the toppings. The only downside is not having beer on the menu.

    We had a meat pizza and a white sauce pizza, both were very good. Sort of NY style, thin, but not as crispy as I like. Great flavor. They over charged us about $6, but the receipt was just credit card, so hard to confirm. Definitely worth visiting, just pay better attention than we did.

    Great pizza. The owner (Dave) certainly had a lot of Jersey in him still but he was the nicest guy. You can tell he really loves his place. He kind of reminded me of a soup nazi type guy at first but then he warmed up and told us about his family in Jersey, ECT. They were packed on a Sunday night and our kids loved the pizza.

    Good pie though a bit on the greasy side with large slices (NY Style)...but tasty. Had a greek salad which was average and my folks had a turkey sandwich that they enjoyed. For pizza on the island I'd say it's the best in town.

    This is a great stop for a good meal. So far I've had a few types of pizza, meatball sandwich, and Philly cheesesteak. My favorite is the meatball sub surprisingly because I've never liked them at other places and I'm not a meatball lover. My husband's favorite is the loaded philly cheesesteak. They are all good though, you won't go wrong either way unless you don't order the cheesecake for dessert. It is fabulous! We even order here for our staff training lunches because it's delicious and they deliver. The owner Dave couldn't be nicer.

    Went in for lunch today. Hubby had canzone and I had the special: cheese slice, Greek salad, and soda. It was quick and good! Lots of veggies in the salad (artichokes too!!). Authentic, quick and cheap. Go here.

    Checked this place out with the kidlets tonight - was ono! We had fun sitting outside and watching the cars pass. The cheese pizza was really good. My middle son usually eats half a slice and is done but tonight he ate FIVE slices of pizza (side note - the owner was totally awesome. He cut the whole pizza into smaller slices for the kids to handle easily). Great spot - will be back!

    I order the lasagne one Friday night. Had the dinner special and it wasn't bad. Saturday night tools around and hey let's order the Saturday night dinner special lasagna and the owner want in. The daughter was working. I'm like gear she's in the culinary program, her lasagna should be excellent. How disappointed. Over cooked noodles in Luke warm pizza sauce and some Italians sausage. It was horrible. Mahalo Vic

    My hubby and I were on Maui for a little weekend getaway from Oahu and had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Dave Giannotto at our very first visit to this fine Italian restaurant on Sunday night, 6/15/2014. We ate here for dinner. From the minute we entered his restaurant, he greeted us very warmly and made us feel like family. There were so many different things that we had wanted to try but we ended up ordering a deluxe whole 16 inch pizza to share between the two of us, needless to say, we polished up the WHOLE pizza! The crust is tasty and perfectly chewy with a crisp and light surface firm enough at the bottom to support the weight of the generous amounts of toppings added to the pie. For our deluxe pizza, we had a generous amount of cheese, pepperoni, sausage, olives, green pepper, tomato, and onions. The tomato sauce is very flavorful and perfectly seasoned with the right amount of herbs and spices which complemented the toppings and crust very well. When the pizza arrived at our table, it was piping hot and cooked to perfection! Dave is a genuinely nice guy who takes the time to explain his menu items and makes suggestions as to what you may want to try, especially if it's your first time, as it was ours. He also took the time to come to our table and chat with us not only about how we felt about his food, but he also takes the time to get to know you on a personal level as well. There is a true sincerity here and you really do feel welcomed and like a part of his family while you're here. You will definitely taste his families legacy and love for food with every bite you take. It's hard to find places where you can taste a families rich history and love for food these days, so eating here was a true treat! Our only regret that night was that we did not leave enough room for dessert! After polishing off a 16 inch pie between the two of us, we just could not do it! The pizza was just too good to stop! All of the desserts are homemade, which include tiramisu, cheescake, cannoli, and zeppoli's. We will be sure to save enough room for dessert next time! Giannotto's Pizzaria is totally legit and has bomb pizza's! This pizza was by far, one of the best pizzas that we've had ever! We travel a bit and have eaten some bomb pizza's in our lifetime and we can confidently say that eating Dave's pizza is a pleasantly memorable experience and is right up there with our favorite pizza's to eat! The next time we visit from Oahu, we will be sure to make a stop here again! The next time you're on Maui, make sure to stop here for meal, you definitely won't regret it! We're definitely going to be refering our friends and family to Giannotto's!

    Our very picky family of 5 loved this place. Highlights were the Philly cheese steak (A+), white sauce pizza (addictive, probably because of the garlic), and the cheesecake (best texture we've had). The place is authentic, family run, and a real diamond in the rough. Way better than Shaka's which is much better known on the island.

    If you like thin crust authentic pizza then you'll like this place. Just took 10 pizza's back to work. We all thought the pizza was amazing. Best pizza I've had in Hawaii and probably the 2nd best pizza I've ever had. Great thin crust and the toppings we're excellent as well.

    The best customer service I've ever received at a restaurant. The owner and staff are all very friendly and kind. They treat their customers like good friends. The food is DELICIOUS. I've tried the pizza, the calzone, and the chicken alfredo, I highly recommend them all.

    Came into Giannotto's for the first time a couple days ago. Mr. Giannotto welcomed us into his restaurant and treated us as if we were long lost friends. And the pizza! We are real pizza lovers and we must say this is some of the best pizza we have ever eaten. And we are originally from the pizza capital of the world, New York City. Their cheesecake is authentic New York style, and we have never tasted any better. If you love pizza and you are on Maui, you've got to give this place a try. Jets fans from Rhode Island

    Lucky to have found this place after a hike on our way back to the hotel. Authentic east coast food...highly recommend the steak and cheese, slice of pepperoni (with real pepperoni!) and tiramisu that was outstanding!! Dave the owner is true Jersey guy, super friendly and makes delicious food!

  • Linda J.

    Went here last night and had a calzone and tried the New York style cheesecake. OMG, the cheesecake is amazing, and the calzone was delicious too! Can't wait to go back and try the pizza. This is the real deal. The owner is from New Jersey and uses his mom's authentic Italian recipes. Try this place, be sure to try the cheesecake, you will be addicted, I promise!!!

    Found this place through Yelp and it was fantastic...Giovanni was so friendly and welcoming - and the food was outstanding...it's a true east coast, Italian menu. Highly recommend the meatball sandwich and the Greek salad. We will make this a regular stop whenever we're on Maui...thanks, Giovanni!

    We were surprised to find such seriously good pizza in this sleepy little town. The owner was incredibly kind and hospitable towards us weary cyclists who were making our way slowly around the West Maui mountains by bicycle. Such a treat! Thanks for the delicious slices, cold sodas, clean restrooms, and of course the extra friendliness! PS: That was really good cheese.

    We picked this place because we saw it was super close to us and had some great reviews. We each ordered a slice of meat pizza. (Ham, meatballs, salami... Sounds yumm!) the boys behind the counter are super nice and it smells amazing!! The slice wasn't very big for $4 but here goes nothing... So warm and delicious!!!! Spicy but perfect bread to meat and sauce!!

    My wife and I were on our 10 year anniversary and after visiting the IAO state park (Amazing beautiful park) we were hungry. It was a Sunday and we tried to find a place in Wailuka but we could not find anywhere (non-chain) that was open on Sunday. We then turned the corner and found Giannotto's. My taste buds did hand springs! The place has a real decent sized interior which was surprising. There is a very nice covered area in front that has nice canvas shades and even flowers for a very relaxed atmosphere. I had a craving for a calzone. The owner (Dave) was one of the nicest guys you could hope for and provided great detail about his calzone. My wife ordered a Chicken Caesar salad. I have had my share of "specialty" calzones in my day and more often than not they are more like a cheese filled deflated football. The balance is often more of a hunt for the few pieces of meat. This was the BEST calzone I had ever tasted! The balance of ingredients and spices was perfect. He even uses homemade meatballs. I even took pictures to share with other family members that frequent Maui to add it to our "must see" list. Just when you think "wow that was amazing" Dave comes by and informs us he made fresh Cannoli's this morning. Well that was a no brainer and ordered two! They came served on very visually appealing chocolate sauce decorated chilled plate. Very impressive! The looks matched their taste perfectly. They were very good. Dave has a real gem here and the pride in his restaurant doesn't come across as arrogance in any way. He is a very humble guy and wanted to do everything possible to make our lunch as enjoyable as possible. The food was off the charts. Dave's friendliness and genuine customer focus was very refreshing, and the best experience we encountered during our 10 day stay. I just wish I could post the amazing pictures that I took. Prepare your taste buds for a real celebration of flavor. Dave & Heather Hofman

    This place is amazing! Been here in Maui a few times and loved it. The Pizza is really great tasting and I think the best on the Island! We had a layover in Maui and just had to come over and get some Pizza from here. The customer service is awesome to us, pricing is good and loved the Cheesecake as well. Every time I'm in Maui I make it a point to come here.

  • Michelle V.

    Seriously the BEST pizza on the island. And we live here & have tried many other places. Crust is not too thick or thin. We get the veggie & add meatballs & extra cheese. It's bomb. Delivery is a little slow, but it's worth it.

    Always nice to see a business from the NY area do well. I ordered 2 pizzas on a First Friday (forgot about the street fair). No worries----I ordered my two pizza's and navigated past the band (playing there for First Friday). They (the pizza's) were great. The owner also gave me a taste of their tiramasu---OMG. Just like NY !!! Give this local spot a try---you will like it alot. Cheers.....

    So I have to start out by saying that I lived in New Jersey for a solid five years during college/my early 20s.. This place is effing LEGIT. We were staying down the block at Northshore Hostel and was recommended Gionnatto's by someone else staying at the hostel. My friend and I, her being from Jersey and me having lived there for awhile, decided to check it out and see if it was the real deal. I was instantly had a good feeling about my order (two slices w/ mushrooms) when I saw him pull two already made slices off the rack and started prepping them. Yes I thought! This is how we do pizza! While we waited for our order we checked out some of the pictures and articles on the wall, only to realize that everything was from Newark NJ. Having lived in Newark for two years of my time in Jersey, I had to ask the owner about the pictures.. lo and behold! They are actually real Jersey people, living in Maui and making real Italian food! I'm not kidding you, this place would get the same reviews in Jersey.. it is legit! The pizza was fantastic! Just how pizza should be! Thin crust, tasty sauce, fresh toppings. I decided to spring for a slice of tira misu as well and it was equally amazing. I don't live in Jersey anymore so it was extra amazing to get a taste of the kind of pizza I had grown accustomed to, and now I miss it up there even more. If I'm ever in Maui again, Giannatto's is top of my list!

    ATMOSPHERE: They're attached to the Main Street Promenade building. It's a simple, open air shop with a few seats indoors and out. FOOD: Shrimp Alfredo - Opted for linguine pasta. The sauce wasn't the greatest and tasted like it came out of a bottle. The 5 pieces of shrimp were good. Pizza - The owner was nice enough to let us sample a slice while waiting for our order. The crust was on the thinner side, crunchy & chewy, and had great flavor. SERVICE: The owner is a cool cat. Very friendly and professional. OVERALL: Very good pizza, okay pastas.

    Was looking for a quick bite to eat before going to the airport. This is only 5 minutes away from the airport, so great location. Food is good and the owner was extremely hospitable and nice - good Italian guy. The tiramisu they make in house and is the best tiramisu I have ever had. Glad we found this little pizza place - good local business. Would definitely make a side trip to eat here next time I'm in Maui! Greek salad was great too. Pizza by the slice is nice, so you don't have to get a full pizza.

  • Betty O.

    This is the first time I've ever written a Yelp review -- my husband and I were so thoroughly charmed by both the excellent dinner and by Dave, the owner, that I decided this would be my first one. We shared the lasagna (homemade meatballs), garlic bread, and a Greek salad -- all delicious, huge portions. Dave insisted we save room for homemade desserts -- when my husband told him I didn't care for tiramisu, he brought the entire baking dish out to our table to give us each a taste! I was sold... we also ordered a slice of the chocolate cheesecake. Moments later Dave came out bearing a plate with both desserts and half a dozen fresh, hot zeppole, fried bread dough coated in powdered sugar. Divine! There were few people when we got there just a day after the twin hurricane threat had dissipated, so Dave took the time to talk with us about his business and his family ties back in New Jersey. He and everyone else working there were super friendly and helpful. I wish we were staying longer in Wailuku so we could go back and try the pizzas and fresh cannoli!

    Very rarely do I leave a restaurant kissing the owner, but Dave is so friendly, and such an exceptional owner. You can tell he's very proud of his business, and he has every right to be! Had a pie with half sausage, half meatball, onions, mushrooms, and extra cheese, and it was delicious. Chewy crust, delicious sausage, sweet onions. Started with an Italian salad that was more than enough for two people. This is our first day in Maui, but I know this will not be our only visit to Gionnatto's.

    I love this place! The owner is always very friendly, and helpful! He must have said Thank you 5 or 6 times in the short time we were there! Great food and great service is hard to come by now days. And this place delivers both! great little spot in Old Wailuku Town! I would give it more stars than 5 if I had the opportunity!

  • Jillian S.

    Great tasting food where you wouldn't expect it! Probably the most authentic Italian food I've ever had and the employees are very sweet. The owner came and personally asked how the food was and was very welcoming to the restaurant. Definitely would be a go-to spot if I lived here, so with that I recommend to everyone in the area!

  • Chase R.

    The food is good enough. Nothing special about the sauce, spices, or crust. However, because pizza options on Maui are so bleak, if you're in the area this is the best you're going to do. Food is overprice and the salads are small. However, their cannolis are pretty good and worth the average cost. Also, be careful about delivery. It's usually cold when its gets to you. They have no way of Keeping it warm.

    REAL DEAL EAST COAST PIZZA AND CHEESE STEAKS - We stopped at this place when we saw a line out the door at lunch. We had salad, pizza slices, and cheese steaks for lunch. Dave (the owner) great guy from New Jersey really cares about his customers. He has his rolls delivered from Amoroso's in Philadelphia. Anyone who is from the East Coast know these rolls are the real deal! Cheese Steak - GREAT! Forget Pat's and Genos.... Pizza- great east Coast pizza with thin crust, great cheese, just the right amount of sauce.... We had lunch, then came back later and ordered food to go for dinner. I got lasagna and it was just AWESOME!! We liked it so much we came back for lunch again the next day. He also has a Tiramisu he makes from scratch that is EXCELLENT! By far the best Pizza on Maui if you want East coat style.

    My uncle brought home there specialty 3 meat pizza the other day with some hot wings.. The pizza didn't taste good at all this time... Had no taste wasn't enough cheese was very salty tasting.. The wings were horrible I took 1 bite and had to spit it out it was like a breaded wing but it was all soggy and just gross.. So I dunno I guess this place isn't consistent.. The first time I really enjoyed the pizza...

  • Sam R.

    "Meh. I've had better." We came to this place because it was closest to our hotel. The deluxe calzone was smaller than a burrito at chipotles. This is after the guy mentioned we could share the calzone. A calzone from NY where we are from is 10 times better. I mean it would take an idiot to mess up cheese, sauce, bread, and veggies in making a calzone. I would not come back. sorry!

  • Shelly N.

    I can't even begin to describe how good this place is. I've never been impressed with restaurant italian. I feel I can make better at home. Giannotto's is CRAZY GOOD!!! This is probably the one place I've vowed to try something different every time I go. So far, I've personally had the calzone and meatball sub. I've tasted the fettucini and veggie sub. And, let's not forget the cheesecakes and tiramisu. I've never really been a fan of tiramisu, but this is quite incredible. Don't even get me started on the cheesecake. I make a pretty mean cheesecake myself, and this may have even been better than mine. It's a small, hole-in-the-wall, type place that can be easily overlooked. Seriously amazing food that I highly recommend!!!!

  • David J.

    I was actually feeling more plate lunch food as I was passing by, but I figured I check this place out. The owner David TOLD us we have to try here and forget about the other places. David was a super outgoing, friendly, talkative guy, and he took time to greet everyone in the store and thanked them. I looked around the crowd and I could tell they were all happy customers. He claimed that all his food is fresh made and don't even try bothering with the other restaurants near by. He kept going on and on and on....so we were like alright let's try it. They have a variety of "New York" style pizza from pepperoni to meaty pizza to vegetarian. You can get them by the slice or whole. They also have special New York style sub sandwich like Philly Cheese and Meatball Sandwich. I tried the day's special: Philly Cheese and man the sandwich was awesome! The pizza slice looked a little on the small side for about $3 a slice. My coworker had 2 slices and I think I would've been still hungry. The sandwich came with fries which were crunch and delicious. While we were waiting for the food David was still going around all his customers making sure they were ok and not waiting too long. To top it off, David the owner came by our table, thanked us for deciding to stay, and dropped off a plate of his special Tiramisu on the house. The Tiramisu was super good. At any rate, I have to say customer service at its best! The food is pretty decent and an excellent place to have lunch. If you live in Maui or stopping by - check this place out!

    I've been here many times and I order the Greek salad. David gianotto does a great job. Everytime I go there, and he already recognizes me and always give exceptional customer service. Whether if I haven't been there for days or even weeks! However, when it came to this other worker, she was very rude. I went in and she was on the phone and was being a real b. I tried to be nice to her but she didn't care. After she completed my order she snapped at the other co worker yelling out ok I'm leaving now! In a very rude tone. To this day, I refuse to walk in unless David is there. I really loved their Greek salad and how authentic it is. since that incident, I rather not go in before that girl would be in a rude awakening. It's sad to see that place is a great restaurant and the food is good enough to eat it as a daily lunch but it just took one worker to ruin the business. Talk about quality customer service.

    I'm an East Coast girl and this pizza instantly reminded me of home. Giant, thin crust, and cooked to perfection. We arrived near closing time and they were still very friendly and accommodating. Since they were cleaning up for the night, we ate outside. They wiped down the table and seats for us (it had rained that day), and even came outside to refill our drinks while we happily munched away. Not bad service considering they could have just turned us away!

  • M M.

    Had these guys deliver to us over a lunch meeting...good stuff! Being in Hawaii, and in particular on Maui, we don't really eat Italian food, unless we make it ourselves. Ever since Pizza Hut got into the pasta biz, we tend to overlook the inception of even American-Italian and go straight for the imitation by-products we have in our proximity. I didn't expect the food to be high quality, but I was pleasantly surprised by our lunch; though I did expect the portions to be a lot longer. It is what it says, an "East coast style" pizza joint in that it is very hearty, rather salty food. (West coast Italian that I am used to seems different). Great menu selection, most of us had trouble deciding what to order. Out of all the food we selected, I would say the calzone looked the best (and most authentic EC Italian, with a true "dough" crust not like the pie crust calzones you see so many places, and with FRESH mozzarella and ricotta cheeses) with the chicken parm sub in close second. The Italian salad was a pretty good deal, the chicken ceasar...not so much. I had two slices of pizza and a side of Italian-style meatballs, which were decent but pricy for the size. As far as the pizza goes the cheese slice was average and the white veggie slice was above average and probably would have been closer to awesome if it was hot (we had it delivered, so of course it wasn't restaurant hot). Wish we could have got dessert as a co-worker said the tiramisu is most excellent but everybody was stuffed. Very satisfying lunch option! Good that delivery to central Maui is free with $20 order. c: But I docked them from 3.5 to 3 stars because of the styrofoam containers...come on, go biodegradable...makes the food taste better when it's not in toxic polystyrene!

    Being from New Jersey, this is as good as it gets even in New Jersey/New York. Was extremely surprised to find this place in a small town in Maui. I've been living in Arizona for the last eight years and haven't had pizza this good in the whole Phoenix area. The owner, Dave is a really nice guy too. If you're from the east coast and want good pizza, go out of your way to come here.

    Giannotto's is a place with great personality. To my surprise, the person taking the orders was the owner. After seeing all the pictures on the wall, it's always nice to see an owner operated business with lots of history. I ordered a Philly cheese steak hot sub. It was great. The place feels like home. From the food, the place, and the people, you can tell Mr. Giannato takes pride in what he does. Had I known pizzas or sandwiches better, Giannato's seems like the place to make it just the way you order it. Overall, I had a great experience. Gianatto's offered more than food to fill your stomach. They provided a good time. Isn't that what eating out is about?

  • Macy R.

    Giannotto's is 3.5-4 stars for me. I did a Google search on the place when I was looking for local pizza around Kahului. Visited their website and saw that they won some awards. We were immediately struck by the character that is David Giannotto. If you decide to eat here, just eat in. He is an interesting guy who cares about his food and his customers. He was very generous with having us try samples of desserts and his homemade meatballs. We got the 16-inch deluxe and were able to exchange some of the toppings with no questions or problems. It's BYOB, so we brought in a bottle of red wine. It was just an all-around good experience. Good pizza, oreo NY-style cheesecake, and service.

    The wife and I passed by here on our way to Iao Valley looking for a place for lunch. We saw the sign "Food Court" and I was hooked by the sign for Giannotto's. We parked, and wandered thru the little ethnic food court. David (owner) hinted to us as we were looking over the offerings that we'd be better off at his place. I nudged my wife into trying it. He was right. I ordered a slice of the "meat pizza", the wife had a salad. The salad was huge, full of good, fresh veggies. My pizza appeared to be a slice of cheese pizza that had the toppings put on it then heated. It also was pretty good. Wailuku is lucky to have this place. As others have noted, David greeted us with a handshake and made sure twice that we were satisfied. I gave him a thumbs up on our way out. I wish I'd ordered two slices.

    Best Greek Salad in Town. I work in Wailuku and will not go anywhere else for greek salad. Crips, delicious, tasty and plentiful. Two garlic bread pieces included. The owner is excellent in customer service. Doesn't get 5 stars, however, b/c I think the pizza is so-so, for the price.

    Good pizza for Hawai`i. The owner is from the east coast. He's a real nice guy and a hard worker, and if you say hi to him once he will likely remember you if you come back. Giannattos has all the classics from a traditional pizza and sub shop you can find on the east coast (hoagies, pizza slices, greek salads, pasta). The subs are greasy and tasty. The pizza slices, however, are rather small - a little dissapointment, but the taste is good. Prices are decent for Hawai`i and, considering there are few if any real pizza shops in Maui, a good place to go if you are craving a sub and a slice in Wailuku area.

  • Nancy F.

    A great little pizzaria right off the hwy. Excellent pizza with a crispy crust and not oily at all. Nice topping choices too. The greek salad was a good size, enough to share for 2-3 people. The owner is from Jersey (you can tell by the fun photos and posters on the wall), and such a nice guy. It was like eating in someone's kitchen. Would definitely go back if in the area again.

    2.5 stars Giannotto's is located in the Wailuku Promenade building. It's a popular lunch stop for the business crowd in the area, but I ordered take-out dinner because my dad was craving pasta. I called them up and asked for a simple spaghetti with bolognese sauce and the girl taking orders didn't know what bolognese is. So don't expect anything gourmet, but just hearty pizza (I ordered the pineapple and ham), a limited selection of pasta (they had run out of pesto by that time too), and some tasty-looking (I didn't have any) Italian treats like cannoli (?) and tiramisu.

    As a new yorker visiting Maui it was awesome to find a solid little pizzeria. David Giannotto was friendly and is staying true to his New York roots and his mom's old recipes. The food was excellent and well priced. I recommend the chicken park sub and the homemade cheesecake.

    I called Giannotto's because I heard an ad on the radio with specials....I didn't actually eat here because I couldn't get past the phone call to place an order. The man who answered the phone said, "how can I help you?' I was shocked that he didn't start with saying the name of the store first of all........I asked if there were any specials and he repeated me....."do we have any specials?" Then he said, "I don't know...what do you want?" I couldn't even find out what they had at the place to make an order! I take it they don't have any specials.

    I ordered a slice and imagined it would be a slice from an already made pizza - I was even doing to accept a slice that had been warmed in the pizza oven. What I got was a generic cheese slice with a FEW vegetables put on top and then put through the oven. The only positive thing I can say is that the veggies were fresh. Do not have pizza here - my friends ordered sandwiches and seemed pretty happy with their selections. The place could use a good cleaning.
