Capische?
Capische is a very expensive restaurant at the Hotel Wailea, at 555 Kaukahi Street in Wailea. Phone 808-879-2224.
The Capische restaurant is very small and all tables are outside, open-air. Many of the tables are on a balcony along a wide railing, with perfect views of the ocean in the distance. The best time to go is at sunset, for the beautiful view.
The food is excellent at Capische, but the prices are extremely high. One of the best and most popular items on the menu is their mushroom risotto. The Braised Lamb Shank is also wonderful. There is only one fish dish on the menu, and in my opinion it was not as good as fish entrees at Maui’s other top fine-dining restaurants.
Capische is good, but I don’t think it is better than the other top restaurants on Maui, so in my opinion Capische is not worth the high prices they charge.
