The pastas are amazing, particularly the spinach ravioli and the lasagna. The Caesar salad is also great. Normally I have found this place to be a stellar atmosphere, but when dining at 9pm you do not expect to be subjected to a screaming baby for the entire meal, which perhaps coincidentally, led to slower and less attentive service than usual from the waitress. The young man that works there, perhaps as a busboy, is very kind and attentive, seemingly going above and beyond his assigned duties. All said, the food was stellar and I will definitely be going back.
Little Italy HawaiiResponded on 20 November 2024
Thank you so much for your kind words about our pasta and Caesar salad! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your meal, and we truly appreciate your feedback on the atmosphere and service. We apologize for the disruption caused by the noise during your visit—it’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide, especially later in the evening. We're also glad to hear the young man made a positive impression, and we’ll be sure to pass along your compliments. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another great meal!
