Award Winning Hale Aina Best Italian Restaurant 2023. From Spaghetti and Meatballs to Chicken Parm, the Red Sauce joint serves classic Italian-American comfort food craved by many on the East Coast. Driven by the desire to bring that flavor to Hawaii, we sourced the best ingredients and make all our pasta in-house. Why? because you deserve better. No compromises. Oh, and we also decided to make mad good pizza.

One hiccup when we arrive , none was at front to seat us , we had to wait about 10 min & we had a reservation. Aside from that , food was great! Everyone in our party love the dishes . We are all Italian & can be critical of Italian restaurants . The meatballs & pasta very delicious, even pizza was very good This coming from a Brooklyn girl .. who was the best pizza at her fingertips. This place is worth it.

Everything was fine there. The hostess was kind enough to see us to an area without a cold air blowing on us. Everyone was nice and the food was fine.

It was recommended by a friend and I finally went with the family. I booked a table and glad I did. Busy. Food was great service was great try the sangria...it was lovely. There was a bit of sticker shock at the bill. All in all a great place but you will pay for it.

Wonderful authentic Italian place with delicious food! Perfect post-movie dinner venue. We will definitely be coming back. The pappardelle and children's spaghetti were excellent. Our server was very attentive and friendly but our one complaint was that she forgot our drink order even after a reminder, so we had to go to the bar to get it. Otherwise, we loved it!

I feel like they're very understaff that they can't keep up. They only refilled our water once and didn't even really check up on us about our dinner. I don't remember their service being this bad. My kids like this place, but not sure if it would be our go to restaurant. One of the guys who was helping our waitress wasn't very friendly. Our waitress was nice but was so busy to take a breather.
