Bravo my all time favorite Italian restaurant for me and my family. Two weeks ago, I came here with friends ( a lot of us). The servers were great serving all of us. We also got the delicious warm garlic knots and I also love plain garlic knots with butter served to us after we have placed our order. Food came in hot and our server got all of our orders correct on our table. We occupied three large tables and we were able to get three separate checks which is very helpful for big parties. Bravo has been around for many years and it has stayed the same decor since. Wish they could update the place a little and I would love to see a Bravo restaurant in Kapolei. :-) My mom and I shared the Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp and it was delicious. The only thing that puzzled me was that they put tomatoes in the pasta which was kind of odd for me. My son usually orders this with no additional protein but it never comes with tomatoes. This dish normally comes with calamari and shrimp but we asked for shrimp only. I wonder if the tomatoes were to make the dish look like shrimp.?Not sure. Overall, Bravo is still a family favorite and the tomato cream sauce and pesto is delish AND so is their garlic (or plain) knots are THE BEST! read more

Whenever my family takes a field trip on the rail, we usually end up at Pearlridge. But this time we went to Bravo's. I must say this restaurant really understands the assignment making reasonably good Italian food really fast for families who are hungry now. Since Buca di beppo is no longer on the island, this is an next best thing. I will say I do like Buca's food a little better, but the fact that Bravo's feels like more of a local spot I can appreciate that. As far as this spinach and linguine and artichoke dish, the spinach did seem to taste a little burnt/smoky somehow. Maybe the pans that they were using in the back were dialed up a little too high, but otherwise the food tasted reasonably well overall. The kids menu is a nice plus too. read more

Haven't been here in the longest time but tonight the food / service was just as good as I remembered. The hostess sat us down right as we arrived , and dropped us off some garlic knots. Our server was great, she did not take long to come take our order and they served our food to us quickly. She kept checking on us and refilled our drinks. I didn't catch her name but she was on it. The food was sooo good, my other half demolished his burger and I got the garlic cream fettuccine with mushrooms and chicken. After we were done and left almost to our car , I realized that I forgot our leftover bag on the table but as we turned to go back one of the guys was already chasing us so we didn't leave without it, such great service here. Bravos still got it after all these years Mahalo to all the staff tonight I enjoyed our visit. read more

Bravo's has become one of those places we return to mostly for one thing: the garlic rolls. They're easily the best part of the menu and honestly the main reason we keep coming back. The rest of the food is just okay. We've tried a handful of dishes over time, but we usually end up ordering our regular - the pesto linguine with shrimp and scallops. My son was not a fan of their spaghetti with meatballs. Prices are on the higher side, and the portions are pretty good. Service is quick, and the atmosphere is usually busy and energetic, so it's not the place for a quiet meal but it works when you want something casual and familiar. Parking can fill up fast in the main lot, but there's plenty of additional parking nearby, so it's never too much of a hassle. read more

I loved the atmosphere as soon as I walked in. The hostess was very nice and friendly. The waiter was on his toes and made sure I had a nice experience. The food was just what I wanted and the house wine was a nice treat for me. Great experience. read more

Bravo Restaurant - Chicken Parmesan. - Italian Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Bravos located below Anna Millers in Aiea (In case you not local) its about a mile down the road from the aiea kam hwy off ramp exit 13A) on your right. Upon entry there is a lobby waiting area where the host will greet you and either admit you (if possible) or put you on a waiting list. The insides is airconditioned and comfortable with booth seating as well as padded seats and wooden tables. (Srry forgot to take pics). The interior has a outdated but kind of cool vibe. If you are looking for an intimate quiet dining experience this is definetely not the place. This place is loud like a chinese restaurant! I Guess the accoustics lends the open surroundings to carry everybodys conversations everywhere. The food is your typical spaghetti pasta salad italian fare. The portions are good and the prices are fair (not too outrageous and affordable). There is a lot of staff and they are professional and efficient and they have to be because this place is busy and gets crowded. They have in house bathrooms and There is also a counter where people pick up their take out orders near the restrooms so there could also be a line of people waiting there adding to the crowded feel. A cool loud family italian restaurant that has been open so long its part of the aiea community and its all good. read more

Came here on a Saturday late evening (note-last seating is 30 min before closing time). There wasn't any waiting/line and we were seated immediately. From the time we got there to the time we left was 30 min, quick and efficient! Vintage red cushioned booths lining the walls, with the ability to have larger parties on wooden tables and chairs in the middle of the restaurant. Complimentary garlic knots to start, (unlimited) refills when requested, but we usually never go more than 1 refill. Food has always been consistent throughout the years. If you're looking for Italian food, that's done with different pastas, sauces and toppings, no frills about it, this is the place. Though the portions seem to be getting a little smaller, with them trying to hold the prices steady during these trying times. Big shoutout to our server, Keanu. He was very pleasant and accommodating. We had a little bit of pasta leftover, to which we got a clamshell takeout container for. When Keanu came back with the check, he also brought a container full of garlic knots for us to take home and even offered a soda for the road (my dining partner had ordered a soda and only drank half of it during our dinner). I was not expecting the latter part, pleasantly surprised, which pushed this to a 5-star review. This is where my partner and I had our first date and we'll continue to keep supporting them, as long as they're still around. read more

Their chicken parmigiana with the garlic cream sauce is divine. I always as for an extra side of sauce to dip the garlic rolls in. Costs extra... but so worth it! I also love their Italian ices for dessert. Always quick and delicious. Been coming here for years. read more

It's been a while since we've stop in but ordered our favorite and it's still 5 STARS! Great atmosphere, good music and happy customers. Service was attentive and a step ahead! We will return to enjoy your delicious Caesar salad and Meatball Appetizers! Hit the spot!! read more

Bravo Restaurant - Garlic rolls and a Caesar - Italian Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

I've been coming here since high school. The food is consistently delicious and we never had any issues until last week. My daughter is allergic to tomatoes. She ordered fried mozzarella and it came drowning in marinara. She was the only one who couldn't eat it and no one came to check in on us so we could order another one without sauce. The next time someone came by was to deliver our meals and they were in a rush. Or server didn't come by until we were half way done. I didn't think it was excessively crowded, just short staffed, maybe. But we had a great lunch anyway read more

Never fails! Been going here for 25 plus years. Spaghetti with meatballs and Italian sausage has always been my go to. Never strayed...ok maybe once but that was for the chicken cannelloni. They still give a ton and the garlic knots are still A+. Get it with the House Ranch! read more

I haven't been here in 15 years, but the food is still good. Love the warm soft garlic butter rolls (we asked for a second basket), the Chef salad was yummy, and the fried seafood had a light crispy (not greasy) batter. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. read more

Food was ok. The service was ok & the ambience was ok. They need to update the booth seats, the cushions were worn down a bit. They were pretty busy so the service was slow. They were nice, just slow. I ordered the spinach ravioli. The flavor was good, not too cheesy and you can taste the spinach. We also had a Chinese chicken salad that was good. I would only come back if I was going to meet someone there. Not necessarily for the food or service. It's not a bad place, I just wasn't wowed. read more

Bravo Restaurant - Spinach ravioli - Italian Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Enjoyed a Mother's Day lunch with a BFF of my daughter's. She's a vegan so she enjoyed her fettuccine pomodoro. I had the calamari linguine, and we both shared a Chinese chicken salad without the chicken and unlimited garlic knot bread . The restaurant was very busy with families celebrating the moms in their lives. Being that busy, the service was very fast and efficient. The restaurant is very spacious. I loved it here. The garlic knot bread alone is enough to want to come back. read more

Service was good but everything else is just okay. Staff were prompt and friendly, and we were seated quickly even with a huge group of 14. They do not take reservations. Its a pretty old restaurant and you can definitely tell, floors are a bit sticky. A bit pricy and the food was just okay. Unlimited garlic knots were a plus and portions were pretty solid. Overall we mostly came because of the location and availability and it's good for a large group because they have a pretty large menu with something for everyone. Solid restaurant for the family or friends gathering but it wouldn't be my first pick otherwise. read more

Bravos doesn't take reservations. We arrived at 7:15 pm with our party of 9. An incomplete party of 13 had just arrived before us. Hostess said that if we had our party already there, they would seat us, which we were. Instead, they seated the other party before us, as the remaining people from that party trickled in. We ended up waiting 45 minutes for the hostess to tell us that they were waiting for one table to clear so they can join tables together. All the while we watched them seat several other groups before us. We finally left without a measly apology for the wait. The price to eat here is not worth the wait and crappy service. Never going back. read more

Bravo's is akin to an Olive Garden, but with a more "diner" ambiance. Think, Italian Denny's with amazing bread rolls for starters. I'm not a huge fan of Italian, but I am not going to let that effect my review (almost gave it a 3). I had the chicken parm with spaghetti. It wasn't bad, but it didn't knock my socks off either. The bread rolls did though! Those were deliciously fluffy and garlicky. My gentleman friend got the ravioli and that was pretty good! The restrooms are clean and the staff is nice. There is also plenty of (free) parking in the area. I don't think I'd go out of my way to eat here, but it wasn't bad. read more

My first time here , I'm very apprehensive when ordering any kind of Alfredo . I've been disappointed at almost every restaurant I've tried . The server recommended it , said it was one their most popular dishes . So I ordered it. And let me tell you !!! I was so shocked at how delicious it was ! Oh my goodness ! The only problem is I wish it had more ! The menu looked great , all different kinds of pastas I usually love, but now if I go back it's gonna be even harder to decide ! read more

You would think I learned my lesson getting food here. Called in a take out, went to pick it up and the order was completely different from what I ordered. She had the nerve to say oh did someone else call? Like wtf. Had to wait all over again. Shame on me. read more

Bravo Restaurant - Small Caesar salad - Italian Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Came to Bravo's on a Saturday night and was surprised it wasn't busier.The interior has a Italian vibe and was well air-conditioned, which made for a comfortable dinner. They serve complimentary garlic knots, which were fresh and a great start to the meal. I ordered the pesto linguine with shrimp and scallops, and asked for extra sauce. it was a smart move, because the extra sauce went perfectly with the garlic knots. The Chicken Piccata was also a standout, great flavor and the chicken was cooked just right. Service was solid. Our server was attentive and generous with the bread refills, which we appreciated. Overall, good spot. Would definitely come back. read more

Bravos is one of my favorite restaurants on the island. Whenever we go to Pearl Bridge Shopping Center, 80% of us always want to go to Bravos to get a bite. I went with my family and boyfriend, this was the first time my boyfriend went there. The place wasn't that busy on a Thursday afternoon so the service was slow. And the place still looks the same as when I was a kid. The waiter brought us the butter and garlic rolls that everyone loves. We also had some crispy calamari, which was so good. I ordered the Clams with Linguene and it was hot and delicious. The rest of my family's food was also excellent. We always have a flavorsome food. read more

Bravo located in Pearlridge. A long time favorite. Service was on point. Offered soda refills before we asked. Brought us their specialty bread. Food was brought out very quick .. less than 10 mins!! Meals were prepared well. Fried mozzarella was a bit overcooked. Ambiance was fine.. very busy for a lunch crowd. The bathroom smelled like there was a backup or just in need of a good scrub down. Recommended if you want good tasting pasta and quick service. read more

Headed to Bravo for dinner, excited to try their seafood risotto. I usually get their chicken fettuccine, but having enjoyed good risotto elsewhere, I thought I'd branch out and try it here, especially since it's an Italian classic. I mean, you expect an Italian restaurant to get Italian dishes right, right?! Arrived around 5 p.m., and it wasn't crowded at all, which was great. We were seated immediately and had a wonderful server (I unfortunately didn't catch her name). My seafood risotto arrived, and sadly, it was a disappointment. I had high hopes, but I've honestly had better risotto at non-Italian restaurants, which says a lot. Next time, I'll definitely stick with my usual chicken fettuccine. read more

Came here with my daughter for an early valentine day dinner last night and it did not disappoint. Honestly not sure why I haven't been here in years but decided to come by on a whim since we were in the area. Service was amazing, our server was the best and was always refilling our drinks, bread and checking in on us. I think this was the best service I've had in a restaurant in a while. Lots of families dining at the time we came in which was pretty early in the evening so it was pretty packed for a Thursday night. Food was delicious and was made quickly. It was a little pricier than I remember but for the service and food you get, I think it was worth it. read more

Great experience! My husband and I both ordered the Seafood Harvest -- I had mine with fettuccine, and he had his with linguine. We also ordered a side of Alfredo sauce for the garlic knots, which was a great addition. The food was excellent, and our server, Nitedine, was outstanding. One dish was a little spicy for my husband, and when I asked for extra sauce to mild down the spice Nitedine brought it out quickly. The service was attentive from start to finish. I would definitely recommend! read more

Came right after opening for lunch and was seated immediately. It was quite busy and had lots of people having conversations. Garlic knots and water were brought quickly and then our server brought our order. I appreciated that they kept bringing garlic knots and weren't stingy with it. Garlic knots kept coming (yum!) as we waited for our food. I got the lunch special chicken parmesan, which is a smaller portion than the regular option. The food came out steaming hot and was definitely fresh. I enjoyed it as there was a lot of tomato sauce and the chicken was juicy. Spaghetti was cooked good. Had so much sauce it was perfect to dip the garlic knots in. Overall, will definitely be back for the lunch specials! read more

Garlic knots w oil/vinegar/parmesan 5 Lasgana 4 Chicken parm 5 Tiramisu 5 Service 4 Waiting area outside 1 As much as I enjoy Bravo, I can't wait outside or near the doors. The outside maintenance is losing the battle with cats and their . The horrible smell ruins my appetite before I can even step foot inside. I don't necessarily think they're to blame, but if I were them I'd want to pay attention to the whole experience. The outside seating area is ground zero for the smell.

I've always thought of Bravo as my "Go -To Italian" restaurant. They aren't the super traditional Italian, but the food is good and consistent; and prices are great. The service is fast and friendly, but the most important thing about Bravo that always gets us, is that they are very very family friendly. It's hard to find this combination of qualities nowadays. Now they are also out "Go To Family Dining" spot as well. The inside is comfy and sorta out dated. But that's one reason why we feel comfortable walking in as a family with young children. It doesn't feel like the kids are going to break everything, and the place is noisy enough that no ice gets upset when a child is being a little on the loud side. It's barely noticeable. Lol. As always, my favorite dish is still the Cajun Chicken Fettuccine with Alfredo. No change there. My Husband loves the Seafood Pesto Pasta, and adds chicken to it too. Our daughter loves their Mac & Cheese, and our son is still finding his favorite dish. But although we usually always eat the same things, it never gets old. We love Bravo Restaurant , and it's become an absolute family favorite! read more

The food over the years has gotten to be average at best. The prices really increased but the food for the money is not as good as other Italian restaurants. The service was good and the new booths are comfortable to sit in. We will come here once a year but only because this was our first dinner date so many years ago. I still like the fresh free garlic bread knots. And I like the ambiance. read more

My three friends and I had dinner at Bravo Restaurant on a Monday, 2/19/24, at 5:30p. We started off with a basket of garlic bread that was nice and warm. My friend wanted the garlic rolls plain without butter and we got a basket of that also. We also asked for a side of butter for extra richness. Throughout our dinner we were always given a fresh basket that was appreciated. We ordered the Calamari, Shrimp, and Scallop Appetizer that came with shrimp cocktail sauce and tartar sauce. The appetizers were nicely fried and paired well with the dipping sauces. We also ordered the Chopped Salad and Caesar Salad to share amongst us. We enjoyed the blue cheese, salami, and chicken and red wine vinaigrette with the chopped salad. The Caesar salad adorned with Parmesan cheese also was a tasty bite. We all ordered our entrees. I selected the Jambalaya that came with chicken, shrimp, and sausage. My Jambalaya had a spiciness that was incorporated into the risotto that I enjoyed. I was surprised by the substantial amount of protein included in the risotto. It was a lot that I took the rest home for later. One of my friends enjoyed her Eggplant and Chicken Parmesan with Marinara sauce and pasta. My other friend loved her Eggplant Parmesan and spaghetti and Marina sauce. My other friend enjoyed her Shrimp Alfredo and pasta with a lot of sauce. Lastly, we ordered dessert. One friend ordered the Tiramisu and said it was light with a coffee and liqueur flavor that she enjoyed. The rest of us opted for the Spumoni sundae. The whipped cream added to the flavors of the Spumoni ice cream. All in all it was a great way to end our meal. Thus, we had great service and a delightful dinner. We will return to Bravo for another great Italian meal in the future. read more

Been going to BRAVOs in Aiea for YEARS!!! I have had a share of different menu items but ALWAYS order the same thing. My favorite Chicken Arabiatta has been a go-to for years I love the spice. LATELY they have been making it with the perfect level of spiciness which I appreciate. Dine in is great, they are VERY fast - servers are very friendly and quick to replenish the garlic bread balls, water and soda orders before you even have to ask. I love that we can always rely on a quick and consistent dining experience here! read more

Had a large group of 18 on a Saturday night. The wait was less than 30 minutes. We had to sit in two different tables due to the number of guests we had. Unfortunately they couldn't separate the checks they said so good thing for Venmo. The service was quick and everyone got their correct order. The garlic knots were a bit overwhelming for me (too garlicky). My spaghetti and meatballs with Italian sausage had green bell peppers. That was different. Tasted good though and the servings are huge. Had to take home leftovers. Last part was a trip to the rest room. It was dirty and the toilets were black porcelain. Looked so scary! So glad I waited until after my meal to use the restroom. Needs a major renovation and please get white porcelain toilets. read more

Bravo has been an staple when wanting to eat good food without breaking the budget. Good portions and options for everyone. However, about 10 years ago the retro decor was cool almost ok, but recently it is now screaming borderline neglect. The condition of the seats and what's barely hanging on to dear life of the decor is in a much needed deep clean or just remodel. During the last visit, the over powering cleaning products smell made the group question what was being covered up. Still great service and staff, smaller menu, but main staples are there. read more
