Inspired by authentic Sicilian recipes from the kitchens of Southern Italy's seaside town of Taormina, Chef Hiroyuki Mimura pairs fresh pastas with the highest quality seafoods and meats. Unspoiled by heavy sauces, Sicilian-style pastas are dressed in pure, extra virgin olive oil. Fresh vegetables, lightly grilled fresh local fish, and lamb seasoned with herbs offer diners a healthy range of options. Featured dishes include fresh Fettucine Carbonara finished with tableside Truffle service, grilled Lamb Chops "Luca pecorini" and Veal "Siciliana." Taormina's specialty dish is Uni Pasta (Sea Urchin), a delicacy enjoyed in Sicily, Italy. Italian Lavazza espressos compliment selections of house made desserts (Dolci).

    Amazing food! Nice selection of entrees. The special menu was interesting but allergy issues so we passed. Service on par.

    The sea urchin pasta was out of this world yummy. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed dining there. We went there twice during our 9 day stay in Honolulu. Thanks.

    結婚30周年の記念旅行の締めくくりで、ランチをいただきに伺いました。 デザートの時にメニューにサプライズでメッセージ付きのデザートをプレゼントいただきました。 予約時に記念旅行のことはお伝えしていましたが、予期していなかったことなのでとても良い思い出になりました。 大切な人との記念日やお祝いなど、特別な思い出作りに、美味しい食事もありだなと改めて思いました。

    This was our 3rd time dinning here. We are always impressed with the food, but this time we were particularly impressed with our waiter. It was post-Christmas celebration with friends and the waiter made certain we were not rushed at all, even though it was a busy dinner hour. We stayed 2.5 hours having leisurely drinks, appetizers, main course and dessert, with lots of time between each course for conversation. The waiter, plus being in the upstairs dinning area, made it a perfect evening. Everyone loved their food choices, both appetizers and main courses. Our guest was very much impressed.

    Our waitress was very helpful & attentive. I had the seafood pescatore, my husband had the sardines & spaghettini. The pescatore didn’t have much flavor & the sardine pasta was dry. We expected better for a pricey Italian restaurant.

    My wife and I have eaten at Taormina at least 10 times. The beef carpaccio appetizer was excellent. I had the roasted duck and it was very tough. The waitress offered to have it additional cooked but I declined because it was the meat, not the cooking. Anyway, my entre was very disappointing this time. Lastly, Taormina is an up scale restaurant but only offers spaghetti pasta??
