Best Italian Restaurants in Kalihi-Palama

Food was wonderfully delicious and the service was exceptional. Our server Nick was great.

Booked 6 people for a birthday dinner. Wife surprised me with two other guests. Super accommodating with the addition. Considering it’s the holiday season they went above and beyond. Server was extremely knowledgeable of menu and wine list. Best veal I’ve had. Was pricey but worth it.

We used to go there in evenings and seated upstairs all the time. Somehow we start going there for lunch time. So it was very sweet and special experience. Of course food was excellent. Holiday

Nothing like being able to sit down after hours of shopping and enjoy a good meal with a great view, that won’t break the bank. We dine and order from here frequently and have always enjoyed the experience. Make sure to make a reservation if you want to come in during the high traffic hours.

Pleasantly surprised on how great the food, service and atmosphere was. From the moment we walked in, everyone was very inviting. We had reservations at 5:30 pm and were seated promptly in the left back corner. Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful with the menu. We started off with some cocktails. If you like Calpico, like my boyfriend then the Sun Chong Spritz cocktail is for you!! Slight sweetness and a very refreshing taste. If you like a little sweeter cocktail with a fruity flavor, then the Chromakey dreamcoat is the cocktail for you. Then, we began our appetizer portion and that's we were blown away by the flavors!!! We had the Nairagi Crudo, Scallop Carpaccio, Prosciutto San Daniele. As each appetizer came out we were so surprised with the flavors and couldn't wait for the next dish to come out. Everything was nice and light and wasn't overpowered by the other flavors in each dish. Next came our entrees, we had the Capellini Granchio, Char Siu pork and an order of the Hokkaido bread which we used to mop up all the saucy goodness from both dishes. We really enjoyed the pasta dish, and had commented on the type of pasta that was used. We both agreed if a different pasta was used it would make the dish really heavy, but the use of angel hair pasta was perfect!!! The showstopper for us was the Char Siu pork. It was perfectly cooked and was accompanied by red wine plums. Make sure if you have this dish, eat each piece of pork with a slice of plum then take a piece of soft Hokkaido bread to mop up the sauce. Lastly, we finished our feast with the Five-spice carrot cake which was pretty tasty. But we enjoyed the ginger gelato more than the cake itself. It had a very light taste, that helped to cleanse the palate. We really enjoyed Glovedi and will definitely be back to try the other dishes!!!
