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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!!
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.
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!
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 checked the app and saw that the next available pickup time was about an hour and a half away, so I scheduled my order before heading to the gym around 12:30 PM. About 10 minutes before my 2:00 PM pickup time, I received a text letting me know my order was ready, which was a nice surprise. I ordered the IL Parma sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. At $24, it's definitely on the expensive side for a sandwich, but the quality of the ingredients and the freshness made it worth every penny. The flavors were fantastic, and I didn't mind paying the premium price after taking that first bite. Parking can be a little tricky. I'm not sure whether customers are allowed to use the Hana Koa parking lot for quick pickups, but a kind employee allowed me to park there while I ran in to grab my order. There are only a few parking spaces directly in front of Bocconcino, so that's something to keep in mind. There's some tables under a covered area, right next to the store. Many people were seated there talking story and enjoying drinks. Overall, a great experience and an excellent sandwich. I'll definitely be back for another Italian sandwich! read more
Love the atmosphere of this place ...reminds me of being on the East Coast. Parking can be a pain point and has stopped me from going a few times when the spots out front are full. In addition to food they have a small shop stocked with goodies from Italy, which adds to the charm. The pizza crust was fantastic crispy and delicious. My only complaint is that I wish it had more sauce. I'm a saucy gal! The bite that had a good amount of sauce was incredibly flavorful, but the rest of the slice was a bit dry, and I tasted more oil than tomato sauce. It was great dough but the flavor was not there for me. I really want to love this pizza more! The staff was friendly, though it took a little while to get my slice. They reheat each slice to order, and they were busy making other items, so it was understandable. I'll be back to try a panini! read more
Of course after we moved to the mainland did they open some really interesting places and this was definitely one we needed to try. We were staying close by and made our way over for lunch, it wasn't ridiculously crowded which was a plus. I made my way around the store window shopping and they have some great pasta and wine choices. They have a nice selection of pizza and sandwiches to choose from and anything in the deli is available by the slice. We ordered the Parma and while we waited we managed to score a seat outside at the table. Once our sandwich was ready we got a text message to let us know. The sandwich was delicious, the bread was so fresh along with the meat and cheese. The pesto spread was a perfect compliment as well. Overall it was so worth it and when we are back on island I will definitely return. If you live here make this one of your go to places and if your staying in town get over there for lunch. read more

Truly a wonderful place. I've spent over a decade traveling to Italy, and I've been all over the country. Bocconcino is the perfect place to indulge in all the Italian delicacies I've missed, from meats and cheeses to pizza, sandwiches, beer, and wine. The pizza is spectacular, especially the Margherita. And I was surprised by the wine prices. I picked up a bottle of Pinot Grigio from Friuli for $15, and they provided glasses and a bucket of ice with no corkage fee. I can't wait to try more things here, especially the pizza al taglio, which has always been my favorite snack in Italy. The atmosphere is fun and casual. Seating is limited, but the communal tables make it easy to sit with others and maybe make a few new friends. Service is very friendly and professional. Ci tornerò presto! read more
Dinner in Kaka'ako, Honolulu, Hawaii... Closed on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays, I had to time my visit so I could try the food. Bocconcino Hawaii stays open "late" on Saturdays for the pizza oven. Patrons can even buy something from the deli side - like a bottle of wine - and enjoy it with their pizza. Process: Pay inside the shop, then give your receipt to the pizza maker outside. They will deliver your pie to your table. Note: Get cups of iced water from the cashier and bring them with you outside. There's no indoor dining. I like to dine in because outdoor dining with no air-conditioning is a challenge for me. There was a fan blowing in one direction, but i couldn't feel anything. It was also noisy from the fan. I just wanted to leave after we finished. We ordered the Pistacchio e Mortadella (cured sausage) pizza. It had a Pesto base with extra virgin olive oil and Stracciatella (soft cheese). The chewy crust had a smokey flavor from the real pizza oven! Cut into four slices, it was delicious! Parking: We were there right before closing, so we parked in front of the shop. We asked if it was ok because there was a "tow away zone" sign. The pizza guys said we'd be alright... and we were! read more
Decided to grab lunch at bococino today, instead of ordering from the main menu i decided to get the special of the day "panino de girono". If you are into cooking Italian cuisine make sure to stop inside because they also have plenty of different ingredients for you to buy ranging from olive oil to burrata. The servers were very nice and everything looked very clean too! The panino I ordered was amazing! The panino del giorno is filled with Carpaccio, artichoke and a nice creamy ball of burrata and spinata i believe. You can taste how fresh all of the ingredients are from the bread down to the carpaccio. The size of my panini is pretty big too so it's definitely worth the price tag. Bococino also sells plenty of Italian ingredients and a huge selection of wine, so if you're like me who enjoys making home made pizza's a paninis stop on in and get your fixings. The staff is also very helpful and takes great pride in what they make so if you have any questions about the menu be sure to ask. Also from how clean the area is you can tell they really love their store! Please stop on by this great place and order yourself a panini or a pizza, I promise you will be wanting to go back every week for lunch. Just make sure to get here early before the lunch rush because you will be stuck trying to find parking. Until next time! read more
This little hole in the wall is a gem. Parking can be tricky. But it's worth the hassle. Parking is right in front of the entrance. The staff was so accommodating and sweet. Bella the daughter of the owner was very helpful and informative. She's definitely an asset to the business. The sandwhich I got was a home run. So simple and elegant yet tasteful and flavorful. It's a perfect combo of bread, mortadella meat, burrata cheese and pistachio spread. The pistachio isn't overwhelming, but brings a perfect balance to the sandwich. This place is definitely with a visit. It's fun to shop around while waiting for the food. read more

Super happy to have this spot close to my in Ward Village. The most popular sandwich here, the Bolognese is super similar to the famous sandwich from All'Antico Vinaio in Florence and was delicious. Each of the three ingredients, the pistachio crema, mortadella, and stracciatella were extremely high quality. So simple yet so good! The prices in this store overall are a bit steep, but the portions are generous. The sandwich is $22 but is large enough for two moderate-sized meals. They also have free wine tasting every Friday and Saturday from 5:30pm to 8:00pm which is a huge plus. The wines they select are really unique ones made from Italian grape varietals. RIP to my wallet but my mouth and stomach are thriving. Everyone I interacted with from the cashier to the wine tasting hostess were super friendly and helpful! read more
I will start this review by saying this is solely for their food. I wasn't able to peruse and step inside Bocconcino unfortunately because there wasn't any parking, so a friend of mine hopped out of the car to grab our order while I circled around. It was so packed, the outdoor dining area seemed quite full. Happy to see they are doing very well! I was able to preorder the food online on their website and was ready at the requested time. My friend and I decided to share two different things that way we can try different stuff. We opted for the Salsiccia & Porcini Pinza and the Bolognese Panini. Both were great! I really enjoyed the pistacio and the stracciatella in the sandwich. I've never had something like this before and it is not common to come across an authentic Italian deli in the middle of the Pacific Ocean! The Salsiccia & Porcini Pinza was soo yummy and a great size too! Both the panini and pinza are definitely shareable unless you're back big as hell (not judging tho). Would definitely come back and would love to go at a time where it isn't so busy. Everything looks great and would love to try something new! read more
This gem is located down the road from my gym (F45), which makes it really convenient for me to get here. Heads up that there is extremely limited parking in front of the restaurant, so expect to circle around or park at Whole Foods and walk over. Please do not park in the parking lots of F45 or Hana Koa. There are dining tables in a covered (but open air) area adjacent to the restaurant, but I take my orders to go. You can phone ahead or preorder on their website! I recommend ordering ahead if you know what you want, because everything is made to order--expect to wait at least 15-20 minutes when it's not super busy. Longer if it's busy. My go to order is the Bolognese sandwich + tiramisu. I am not a sandwich person. Period. I will just about never order a sandwich from a restaurant when given a choice of what to order. If I do get a burger, I don't eat the buns (yes, patty and vegetables only). But the Bolognese sandwich here is the best damn sandwich I've ever eaten. I don't even like deli meat, but the combo of the mortadella and the straccietella cheese with pistachio crème and fresh Focaccia bread (I think it's Focaccia) are incredible. The sandwiches are expensive ($22), but they are massive. I usually only eat half then save the other half for another meal. They keep really well in the fridge even 2 days later (just let it sit out at room temp for like an hour or two before you eat). Tiramisu is on the smaller side, but packed with flavor and heavy on the espresso! The inside of the restaurant is actually a little deli store with fancy artesian cooking gifts and wine. 10/10 even with the crappy parking. read more

Simply amazing. Out of Hawaii experience and hello Italy!! We haven't even been to Italy and it was truly an amazing dining experience! Lovely wines and mouth wateringly delicious, freshly wood fired Italian pizzas. Literally drooling just thinking about it! Casual ambiance outdoors on shared tables to enjoy the pizzas. Can't wait to try every single one of their pizzas! read more
The people and customer service is always so welcoming and warming! They have a lot to offer from pizzas to paninis to wine and all things for Italy! One of my favorite spots for pickup Italian goodness. The pizzas have so much flavor and topping and lots of options if you're not feeling one flavor. The panini's are packed with so much meat and authentic Italian flavors! So addicting! read more

I will admit that I'm not crazy about Italian food.. I just never really crave it.. That was until I decided to give Bocconcino a try and wow I was blown away at how well their sandwiches are prepared. I have tried their number 1 seller the Bolognese Sandwich and that buggah is huge and damn delicious. I also tried a special upon recommendation from the worker and that was also delicious although I do not recall the name LOL. Their fridge also has sooo much delicious desserts. I tried their tiramisu and pistachio cake omfg. To die for. I saw a lot of people coming in just grabbing these desserts and going about their day. This place has become one of my new all-time fave places - and this is someone who is not the biggest fan of Italian food yet will come here for their food. The workers are also really nice and recommend you good food options if you are new. The interior is big but no sit-down area. The outdoor open-air seating is next door to the left of their storefront. read more
The place is small, but hopping. It's on the pricier side, but the ortolana pizza was loaded with what appeared as fresh ingredients. It's a nice concept for the island, but I found myself disappointed as flavors were lacking. The crust was good, but having visited Italy and some amazing authentic Italian eateries in Boston, SF, San Diego, etc this place was quite disappointing. I also think there are so many other and better Italian restaurants on the island. Their system is also off putting. Not clear as to where to wait for order. The girls at the coffee area are polite and courteous. The dudes at the food area are a different story. Not only did they not make a great pizza they also lack personality and customer service skills. Hand washing station in the outdoor seating area, but no napkins. No complimentary water and expected 18, 20, 22% tip for counter ordering and having to pick up food. They got the cliché look down of what's believed to be an Italian deli down, wish they had the flavors down. Just one foodie's opinion and experience. read more
Great Italian food and market! There are maybe 2-3 parking stalls in front of the shop, so it's best to park elsewhere and walk. The service is pretty fast and the staff are very kind and friendly! I've gone here a few times and I love their sandwiches! I highly recommend the Toscano! I usually order that one, but I thought I should try something new so I got their Siciliano with sausage, eggplant, peperonata, caramelized onions, and caciocavallo. It tasted exactly like a supreme pizza. I enjoyed it, but I would rather order the Toscano. I also got their Focaccia. It had olives, tomatoes and other Italian herbs on it. It was a pretty big piece, not bad for $6. I enjoyed the toppings, but I wish it was warm. It was borderline cold. Overall, definitely give their sandwiches a try! They're not cheap, but they're big and the ingredients taste fresh! read more

This is our third time coming here and have had a lot of their sandwiches/ pizzas and this place never disappoints! They're super nice and all the food is so good! The inside has a little store where you can buy different pastas, beers, desserts, and spreads from Italy. Our family truly loves this place! Def recommend! read more
Came here on a Thursday around 130pm on a whim my friend remembered this place as we were wanting a nice panini sandwich! Other place we tried last minute said they had a big order that came in so they couldn't make. Luckily there was parking right in front of the building (orange colored and next to the brewing business parking lot. It also has outdoor covered seating area which is nice if you want to eat there. As you walk in you are greeted with a friendly hello and feels like you transported to Italy lol! Cute small shop with wines, pasta, meats, cheeses and condiments to try all from Italy. Cashier's were friendly and helpful, they answered our questions as first timers and gave us recommendations. We actually talked to the owners daughter, Bella and she was really nice. You can see them making the sandwichs and slicing the meats. We got the romano which was Bella's favorite and I forgot what the other one was called but it was the most popular on the menu and had a pistachio spread. So simple but full of flavor! I would get both of these again and again and of course try all the others. The ratio of bread to meats and just the flavors were Soo good! Not many good Italian places this is must go to! $20+ a sanwhich but well worth it and the portion is good, I can only eat half - three fourths and I'm super full! We also tried some desserts I didn't really pay attention to the names lol but it's the triangle sliced lemon one and chocolate one. Soo yummy! The chocolate was so deep and I couldn't figure out if for sure I was tasting maybe coffee too! Had a nice balanced bitterness but deep chocolate flavor so yum! I like the lemon one too it had like a lemon custard filling inside crust and was nice flavor, not too sweet. Oh they also sell gluten free cookies! Def getting my sandwich fix from here! read more

Came here after a rave review about this place form a colleague. I must say, I was not disappointed. The sandwiches were massive and I had one half for lunch and the other half for dinner! That definitely makes it worth the price in my opinion. I ordered online and it was ready 45min after I placed the online order. There were a lot of workers and the place was crowded at 11:45 for the lunch rush. There's a nice seating area outside that you can eat at. Limited parking stalls in front. May have to get dropped off to pick up your order. Overall, while the price is a bit high, I think it is worth it for the quality and price of the food! read more
Bocconcino Hawaii located in the heart of Honolulu on Kawaiahao St. We've been wanting to visit since we heard about them from our fellow Yelper's. It's a wonderfully cozy Italian Deli. Awesome sandwiches, Pizzas, deli meats and cheeses, groceries, and an excellent selection of wines. We ordered their most popular sandwiches. The Bolognese and the Toscanp and a slice of Tiramisu. The Bolognese has a wonderful pistachio cream, authentic Italian Mortadella, stracciatella and pistachios on Schiacciata bread. The bread was crispy on the outside soft and chewy inside truly a great sandwich . The Toscano came with an Artichoke cream, finnocchiona Salami, whipped Pecorino, marinated and roasted eggplant on Schiacciata bread . Awesome pairing simply delicious .
