    The food was fresh and immaculate however, I found out the hard way that I do not like spritz. Service was a bit slow but worth the wait! The maker inside is a really cool feature and the outside area is a nice touch to the experience! Definitely have and will go back

    Location: Heart of Kakaako. Best to walk here and take in the sites of a revived area. Parking: Extremely limited. Service: Efficient and friendly. Be patient if the line is long. Always worth the wait. Food: 5/5 Outstanding for Hawaii. You can taste the quality fresh ingredients. Ambiance: great outdoor seating near the pizza oven. Buy your favorite bottle of wine and enjoy while waiting for your order.

    Parma Sandwich
    Elyse W.

    Got the Parma sandwich. It was a good sandwich and tasted fresh, but is $$ (~$25!). Not so expensive since 1 sandwich is large and can be 2 meals. Lots of wine selection as well! Like other Kakaako stores not in Ward, parking is horrid. Street park or park at Whole Foods and walk over. Only ~3 parking stalls in front of store.

    Cola

    I got the Salsiccia & Funghi Taglio and it came with a free drink of choice, the cashier recommended the cola. I've always had a great experience with Bocconcino and would always check out their huge array of liquors, wine, champagne, etc. And if you're lucky, there will be someone tucked into one of the corners giving out samples of their brand/drink. The ambiance of the store is really nice, they make the sandwiches in front of you. Their sandwiches are to die for! The store does get busy during peak hours, usually lunch or near closing, and parking is a bit hard to come by.

    Il Bolognese panini
    Kyle S.

    I have been meaning to come here for a long time though still have not. I had my brother go and pick up an order of Il Bolognese panini and Salsiccia & Funghi pizza. My brother said the ordering process was ok in the shop but you have to go outside to wait for them to call your name. The Il Bolognese panini had a slight crunch to the crust. The bread was of good quality and the fillings were good though I couldn't really taste the pistachio which is my only complaint. The fungi pizza used the same bread as the panini and it was good also with clumps of melted cheese, sausage, and mushrooms. I would like to try their Neapolitan pizza next time but this was a filling slice. I can see why people have been raving about this place to get good Italian food and I'll be back, this time in person!

    I came here with some friends after hearing about how good it is. We looked at the menu and I really wanted this prosciutto sandwich, but it would apparently take 30 minutes because they were working on a large takeout order. Just bad timing for me, so I ended up getting a pizza which was pretty good. They have some coffee options, so we got the cafe mocha, also pretty good but nothing too special. The store itself is a super cute little shop where you can see them making each pizza, and they sell a wide variety of authentic Italian food ingredients including wine, cheese, pasta, etc. Their only seating options though was the room right next to the store, which had a long wooden table with benches and a few bar seats. Parking is pretty difficult since it's on a narrow street with no sidewalks, so we had to park all the way down by the intersection. Sometimes theres parking right in front if you're lucky. This is a good spot for takeout or if you're looking for a cutesy Italian-vibe cafe.

    Bolognese Sandwich

    Bocconcino is located along Kawaiaha'o Street which is a bit of a rough narrow street, you can probably get away with street parking in front however. I called ahead and ordered takeout which came out on time. (4/5) Salsiccia & Porcini Pizza: The size was a bit small for the price point and I wish the sauce was more plentiful, but the flavor was good. (4/5) Bolognese Sandwich: LOVED the pistachio spread, it was the perfect balance of sweetness, saltiness, and nuttiness to pull the sandwich together. I'm lactose-intolerant and I'm surprised that I was perfectly fine after eating all the cheese on this sandwich. The only complaint I have is that the bread was hard and difficult to eat through.

    Kristen S.

    Every sandwich is a hit here. Every time. They're not cheap, but they're definitely made with high quality ingredients. That being said, don't plan to pick up food here if you're in a rush. It's a small shop with many orders and they painstakingly assemble every flatbread and sandwich with love. I've waited 45 min for 4 sandwiches before...Which are massive and should feed 6 people in my opinion. While you wait, there's plenty of time to peruse the yummy Italian made ingredients in the shop and smell the wonderful smells. I will come back again and again--and continue to bring friends who love food because I always want to try more than one wich when we're there!!

    Bolognese
    Angela C.

    The bolognese sandwich was my favorite, and the rest was not so good. I ordered 2 pizzas and 2 sandwiches. The bolognese sandwich was creamy with cheese served with bread that was a bit hard for me. The Toscano sandwich had no cheese in it which made it even more hard and dry. The Salsiccia pizza was better than the prosciutto pizzas because the sausage bite were chopped and easier to eat, but other pizza with large pieces of prosciutto and arugula salad leafs were uncut and when you take a bite, large chuck get difficult to eat. I can see how it is easier for the person to make it by just throwing large uncut pieces of meat and salads on the pizza, but difficult for the customer to actually eat. However, both pizzas are hard and dry, so I will not come back for these expensive and hard to eat food. Inside the store is nice, clean and full of food and merchandise to buy, but no parking spot sucks, especially in this narrow two way street. Too much hassle for at most, mediocre, super expensive food. I will not come here again.

    Where have I been?? One of the doctors told me about this place after my trip back from Italy. It was supposed to be like All'Antico. I stood in line Florence for a delish prosciutto layered. Wait here is long. I had the salsiccia and porcini sandwich. It was yummy! Place is more of a grab and go. They have seats in the back for outdoor vibes.

    Wine
    Wakaba S.

    If you don't already know about this place, you'll probably never stumble upon it - it's tucked away and kind of hidden. We started with the wine tasting, then ordered pizzas, purchased a bottle of wine and water (they'll open it for you and provide cups). After that, we stepped out of the store, and headed to the garage-style space where a chef, pizza oven, tables, and chairs are set up. A few minutes later, our pizzas arrived. I had the prosciutto and arugula with just a touch of lemon zest. It was excellent! The little hint of citrus was surprisingly refreshing and really made the pizza stand out. Overall, I really enjoyed both the food and the experience. A quick note: wine tasting and pizza service start at 5:30pm, but the store itself opens earlier, and you can also grab sandwiches there.

    Great service, delicious food! We passed by someone else eating their pizza and it looked so good so we went and got a couple of slices. The owner is lovely and we got the veggie pizza and it was delicious. The prices were very reasonable and we would definitely go back! Great option for the kids if you take them to the nearby playground and have a picnic. The pizza came with a free Italian soda!

    Samannta I.

    The food was so good that I had to come again today. I tried their Parma sandwich and absolutely fell in love! The combination of pesto, tomato & arugula is unmatched. I would come here every single day if I could. I absolutely love Italian food and this my friends is top tier. Their quality & taste is authentic and everything is fresh. Their pricing is more than fair, you get what you pay for. Thank you Bocconcino

I didn't really know what to expect, but I was surprised by how many different kinds of poke they had. I stood there for a while trying to decide because everything looked good! I ended up getting the salmon and Hawaiian ahi tuna poke. Both were good, but looking back, I should've gotten one of the spicy mayo flavors because those looked even better. Next time, that's definitely what I'm ordering. You can get half a pound or a full pound, and you can also split your order between two flavors. We bought the poke here and got rice separately to make our own poke bowls. It ended up being much more affordable than ordering poke bowls from a restaurant, especially while visiting Hawaii. One thing to know before going: grab a number from the ticket machine when you arrive. The poke counter gets busy, and there were quite a few people waiting when we went. They'll call your number when it's your turn. Overall, this was a good and affordable stop for poke with a lot of variety. I'd come back, but next time I'm going straight for the spicy mayo!

I have to be careful with pork because it can trigger a gout attack for me, so obviously this was not what I was hoping for. But I was hungry, had already bought it, and figured I wasn't going to return a prepared meal, so I ate it anyway. That said, the food itself was actually pretty good. My issue is more with the labeling. If something is simply called "katsu," you may not necessarily know what kind of meat you're getting. I think it would be helpful if the prepared foods were clearly labeled as chicken katsu, pork katsu, etc., because there are people who can't or don't eat certain types of meat. So overall, the katsu curry was pretty good--but buyer beware. Pay attention to exactly what you're buying, because you might not get what you assumed you were getting.

She told me she couldn't do the transaction and went off to lunch. I tried getting someone else to help me but he stated he was an operator not a manager. So her co-worker explained to me that it wasn't an issue with my identification. At first, I thought it might have been because the address on my passport wasn't current, so I provided another form of identification along with a piece of mail showing my name and mailing address. Unfortunately, that didn't make a difference. The associate explained that it may have been because it was my first time cashing a check of that amount at Walmart and suggested that I go directly to my bank instead. While I appreciated the associate's efforts in explaining it to me, the experience was still extremely disappointing. I had planned to use the money to buy groceries, but since I couldn't access my funds, I had to return everything I had picked out and leave empty-handed. It was a frustrating and discouraging end to an already long workday. I understand that policies and verification systems are in place for security, but I wish there had been a clearer explanation or an alternative solution to make it right with me. I was so disappointed, I just deposited the check through my own Chase mobile banking. A bank I haven't used in over a year and a half since I moved to Hawai'i. To make matters worse, the employees started discussing my situation in the corner in Tagalog as if I wasn't right there. I wish people didn't do that. Speak in another language thinking other people don't understand you. I speak Visaya, English, and Tagalog by the way. I was born in the Philippines and understand the language... It was just a very discouraging encounter. I walked out of Walmart trying not to sob because after two weeks of waiting for a paycheck, and not being able to go to the bank with my work hours, it's been incredibly difficult to have money in my pocket. I was really counting on Walmart to take care of me today. So, reluctantly, I took a picture of my check instead and deposited it through my mobile phone and now I have to wait days for it to go through. What a rough day.

And even after we moved, we would still drive out just to come here for the seafood. That's how special it was to us. The reason why he chose Tamashiro over other grocery stores was simple--it was quality and because of my Nanay (grandma). His mom purchased from here and made so many delicious dishes. He knew what to look for, and he trusted this place. For him, it wasn't just about buying food... it was about getting the best for his family. My dad isn't the type to say "I love you." He shows it. One of the biggest ways he showed love was through his cooking. Even after a long day on his feet cooking for others, he would come home and cook for us. That was his way of taking care of us. I loved coming here with him. It was a five-senses overload--the smell of fresh seafood, the sound of people talking story, the colors of fish on display. Back then when you were allowed to sample a grape or poke to make sure it was good before buying. But more than that, it was time with him. I still remember the excitement I felt when I saw the pink building with the huge crab. I thought back then was to look at everything but now I understand that it meant something more..... something special--time with my dad. It's with a sad heart that Tamishiro Market is now closed.
