Really nice gem in Aiea town! The food was excellent, and the staff that helped me with my order (takeout) was incredibly courteous! Ordered both from. The menu as well as their special that day. It did not disappoint! They even included their incredible house bread and butter!
This is a good Italian place for Oahu. There aren't too many to choose from though. Service was prompt and pleasant. Dining area a bit cramped with smaller tables, not easily seating more than two groups larger than 6 at a time. A table for two works as long as apps, and entrées come sequentially, are finished and removed before next course.
Buttered Wine Sauce needs work.
Would recommend for Italian food lovers.
Fine Dining experience at a great price! The service was fast, serving warm bread right away with refill. On it with refilling the water. Actual table cloth, cloth napkins & real stemmed rose at each table, romantic Italian-sounding background instrumental music. We had young kids and they even provided extra plates without asking. Besides the free yummy warmed bread (there was literally steam coming out when we parted the pre-sliced loaf) with butter, we ordered the soup of the day, an appetizer & 2 entrees for about $70 (excluding tip). We easily spend a similar amount at regular chain restaurants. Was a nice treat to show the kids the "fine dining" experience without breaking the bank. The staff was amazing, constantly on the go & attentive. Fenominal service. Super pleased!
While it may seem like your run of the mill local Italian restaurant, this place is off the rails. The interior could use an update, but the real roses on the table and the friendly menus and staff make this place cozy. The bread they give you is fresh out of the oven, and you can taste the love they put into it. The food was delicious to the point I wish I had a second stomach just to be able to finish it. Overall, I highly recommend this italian joint.
The waiter was amazing he was very nice and friendly and always made sure we were ok. The bread was very fresh light fluffy and flaky. The pasta was was delicious very satisfied at the whole overall. The crab corn chowder was a good way to start off the meal.
This is a top notch Italian restaurant in a hole in the wall place-except you have to go inside to appreciate a very nice atmosphere. Service was fabulous, but the food was superb. I had the veal Marsala - that was excellent-excellent. I took friends that live in Aiea and they had never heard of it, but were planning a get together with family there next month! The lasagna was the best according to my friend and the scallops soooo good! THIS IS A HIDDEN GEM. Of course, many have already discovered it because it was pretty crowded!
We had excellent friendly service from the staff as well as the owner. Awesome food and I'd recommend that you order the regular plate instead of the mini. You get twice the amount of food for only $3 more. It's worth it.
This is now our go to Italian restaurant. Everything we tried is excellent from the different sauces to the fresh bread. We drive from Kailua to Aiea just to have dinner here. Awesome food at a reasonable price.
This is our place to go for ordinary day special treat dinner, it never fails us. Loc is just so attentive of his customers, we just enjoy him. And now with his additional help, Iwalani, it’s doubly nice. Customers call him by name! That’s pretty cool! I’ve never tried anything else but their linguini with clams. My husband is more adventurous, he likes to try diff things, especially their specials. My linguine has enough juice that I can soak up my good tasting crunchy bread in it. I always enjoy my visits there…never disappointed. Thank you… till the next time again…
Love this place. It's a cozy restaurant with friendly staff. Casual dress code. Parking can be hard to find during busy times. My fave here is their Calamari Scampi & Escargot for appetizer.
