Joe's spotlights the elegance of "comfort" food.
Down-home dinners never tasted so good, or looked so good - as they do at Joe's
in Wailea. Perched above the Wailea Tennis Center, Joe's has panoramic ocean
views on one side and Hale'akala on the other. But when the sun sinks into the
mighty blue Pacific, the lights come on and the views are all but forgotten.
Internationally acclaimed Chef Bev Gannon masterminds the menu, while her
husband, Joe Gannon is the pro behind the theatric lighting of the popular
Wailea eatery. Joe Gannon is a veteran of the Hollywood showbiz industry, having
worked as producer, director, manager |

and lighting designer for
superstars as varied as Bill Cosby, Frank Zappa, Neil Diamond,
Alice Cooper, Julio Iglesias, Teddy Pendergrass and Madonna,
just to name-drop a few. It was only natural for Joe to design
a "stage" for Bev, who became a superstar herself on the
cuisine scene with the success of Hali'imaile General Store,
and as one of the originators of Hawai'i Regional Cuisine. "Bev
is the best chef around and I wanted to show off her cooking
even more," says Joe, always the "beaming" husband. Its no
wonder comfort food has made such a comeback, especially with
Bev in the kitchen. |

Dessert at Joe's is a must. Joe
and Beverly's daughter Cheech Gannon-Shurilla is an
accomplished pastry chef, and her mouth watering desserts are
a big draw at both restaurants. But Joe's is the only place
you can try her creamy, velvety Chocolate Bread Pudding made
with fresh brioche. It's worth every single calorie - like
everything else at Joe's. |

"The
270-degree view spans the golf course, tennis courts, ocean, and Haleakala
-- a worthy setting for Beverly Gannon's style of American home cooking
with a regional twist. The hearty staples include excellent mashed
potatoes, lobster, fresh fish, and filet mignon, but the meatloaf seems to
upstage them all. The Tuscan white bean soup is superb, and the
tenderloin, with roasted portobellos, mashed potatoes with whole garlic,
and a pinot noir demi glace, is American home cooking at its best. If
chocolate cake is on the menu, you should definitely spring for it ." |
