    Caprese salad
    JD H.

    I got an unexpected opportunity to eat here last night. My flight to the islands was significantly delayed, so I missed my connections at HNL, had to unexpectedly overnight it and needed a dinner plan. The silver lining was my chance to eat at Win's! That I could have gone to any number of great local or tourist spots for a great meal but elected to go here should tell you something. I have been here several times since my original review. I can confidently say that everything I wrote 7 yrs ago still applies and is in full effect. Same place, modest decor, generous BYOB policy, awesome staff, and fantastic food. Given that, this place remains my one "don't miss" eatery when I am in Oahu. I'm still amazed that I have to travel over 4,000 miles from my home base to get a meal like this, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean no less! My tactical plan to approach a meal here is this. Go to their website and make an auto Google reservation. I did it from my flight when I realized I was spending the night in Honolulu without a plan. Arrive in the area early and stop at Fujioka's Wine Shop to get something awesome to drink with dinner. Have Fujioka's put the bottle in their Quick chiller for several minutes and it will be the perfect drinking temperature. Walk up the slope to the restaurant, sit at the table they have diligently set aside for your reservation, have them open your great bottle choice and be prepared to feed your face. On the short walk up from the wine shop, there will be no doubt about where you are going because you can smell the cooking garlic wafting all over the place drawing you in like a moth to flame! Years after my first discovery visit and this place still delivers an outstanding meal with one of the best clam sauce, linguine dishes around! It hasn't changed in 7 years and I hope it never does. If you are local, go support this community gem. If you are visiting, take a break from the tourist district food and go eat in the local neighborhood. I always do so here and they still get all five stars from me!

    Located in Market City near Foodland up the stairs by Thai Issan, Win-Spuntino is an Italian spot with a variety of pastas, salads, and more. They have a pretty decent offering size of pastas from pastas with seafood to chicken, vegetables, and more. The place is on the smaller side with a few tables inside. It has a pretty casual and clean feel with dark wood red and white plaid tables. The people working are nice and efficient with the orders. We got the pasta with meatballs and sausages, and the pasta with chicken and vegetables. The portions are quite large, and usually last us a couple of meals. The pastas were solid and a little on the sweeter side with the sauce. I prefer a bit more of a salty pasta. The pastas were about $20, which seemed to be a good value for the amount we received. We'll try another of the many pastas next time!

    This is one of the family's favorite spots. Very family friendly, simple and quaint- casual dining location. We have dined in with a large group, many times and always receive great service. The menu is very large so we always have a hard time choosing what to try on each visit. Portions are super generous and we leave "fat and satisfied" and with leftovers for later! The cheesecakes are homemade with a fun wide variety to choose from. All were delicious and great tasting sizes for sharing with the group.

    Chopped clam pasta and Chicken piccata
    June D.

    What a delightful surprise! I visited this spot years ago when they first opened, and today I was lucky enough to return for lunch with a friend. We arrived at 11 AM to find a bright, fresh dining room that immediately felt welcoming. It's BYOB, and the menu is both creative and reasonably priced--a rare find these days. I ordered the chicken piccata, and the moment it arrived, the rich aroma of garlic, capers, and Parmesan filled the air. Every bite was perfectly balanced, and the pasta was cooked just right. My friend had the chopped clams, which were just as delicious--and we both had generous portions to take home. This is definitely going to be my new go-to spot for lunch meetings. The owner and his son were both on staff, and they couldn't have been more warm and welcoming. I'm so grateful for the experience and highly recommend you give this place a try. You'll be glad you did!

    First of all clean, bright, small restaurant. For my fellow Christians who wants to support a Christian restaurant this is the place. Server and owner gave us service and it was great service no complains always checked on us. Food was wonderful, tasty and LARGE portions. We also ate bacon cheese bread delicious and camprese salad, crunchy tomatoes...My fave! We sadly didn't have room for dessert but they have a wonderful variety of cheese cakes. We will definitely be coming back and bring the family. We left with a happy dance after all this great food.

    Seafood diavolo
    Shana V.

    We arrived with no reservations and limited expectations. I was super hungry and over traffic so we pulled in to Market City to try this place out. Lots of people were doing take out but we opted for dine in. We were greeted and seated at a cozy table near the windows. This is a small spot, but they have a lot of options on the menu. Our server greeted us, took drink orders, shared the specials for the day and let us peruse the menu. We opted on the clams casino and garlic cheese bread for appetizers. The clams were hearty and rich, the bread was perfect for sopping up extra clam toppings. The special seafood diavolo and chicken marsala were our appetizers. The special pasta was filled with seafood but was missing something I couldn't put my finger on. The Marsala was delicious. Parking at Market City is always kind of a pain, but it was worth it for this dinner,

    Lilikoi Cheesecake
    Jolene L.

    We grew up in Kaimuki and this was a hidden gem then. Fast forward after living on the mainland for four years and recently moving back home, it is a treasure to see that this gem is STILL here! I love that it's casual and BYOB. It means they are focusing on the meal and that IS the reason you go out to eat right :) With super friendly service, we were warmly welcomed when we arrived for our dinner reservation. Without any hesitation, they graciously brought wine glasses and a bucket of ice for the bottles of wine that we brought in. Our server mentioned the two entree specials for the evening and gave us a moment to decide. Since we were there for early dinner, our order was cooked fresh and served expeditiously. Hard to believe that such delicious entrées were served so quickly. And yes, we smelled the aroma from their open kitchen and observed them cooking away. We started with the salad sampler and garlic bread. Those were great appetizers and perfectly sized to share among four. I was pleasantly surprised with their lamb chop and pasta special. Grilled up just right and served with a smokey tomato sauce, loved it. Famous for their huge slice of lasagna, this was also fresh with melted cheese and we added mushrooms. Big enough for two people to share! We also had a scallop capri which had large tender scallops over pasta with a white wine sauce, super good. Our favorite was the shrimp and scallop over pasta with a lobster creme sauce. On point! Incredibly tasty and not too thick with heavy cream. Everyone at our tabled enjoyed this dish the most! As most of the positive reviews shared, these are large portions and we gladly packed up leftovers so we had space for dessert. No joke, if you appreciate tart passion fruit, their fresh batch of lilikoi cheesecake is the winner! We also had their mud pie ice cream slice, which was also completely finished by the end of our delicious dine in experience. Thank you for another great dinner. So glad that this treasure is still in the neighborhood. Cheers to many more :)

    Today's special
    Lyn L.

    It was recommended by my very Italian friend so of course I had to try it. I had the daily special. Honestly I was not blown away. It was a typical tomato based pasta with seafood. Service was good, chef was pleasant. Pretty low key in the decor so I consider it pretty casual. We weren't rushed so it was nice to be able to hang out and chat.

    Special for the day. Lobster, scallop, clams , shrimp and calamari in white wine garlic butter sauce.
    Jennifer C.

    This place is always consistent with amazing Italian food. I'll order clams casino as well if i had more room. Service is quick and friendly. Very nice place for low key family dinners. They have promotion right now for gift cards $80 for $100.

    Hidden above Thai Issan in market city shopping center. Large portion Italian food and desserts. We usually order takeout because there's limited dine in seating that can feel a little claustrophobic. Service is always friendly and prompt. They have a huge menu that can pretty much cater to any of your request. They also have yummy cheesecakes that are worth checking out.

    Special seafood Pasta, Lobster, Shrimp, Scallops, so large that we shared the fish.

    Seafood Pasta We haven't been to Win-Spuntino for a while, we finally had a chance to have Italian food again and were not disappointed. The chef came out and described the special that he had and we were sold. Seafood Pasta with Lobster, Shrimp, Scallops on Pasta. We shared the dish and also ordered their Salad Sampler, A little of all their salads. The food is just as I remember and will definitely be back again. The location is at the Market City Shopping Center and up the stairs next to Thai Issan restaurant.

    Shrimp scampi-littered with garlic, not good
    Porsche S.

    I've been wanting to try Win-Spuntino for a minute now. Kids were craving Alfredo, so we opted for takeout. I ordered through Yelp, which was convenient. The order was ready quickly. They are located near Foodland in Market City. You have to go up the stairs since they are on the second floor. Prices are a little high, but it is enough to feed 2 people. I got the shrimp scampi. I was sadly disappointed. It was covered in garlic and the dish as a whole lacked flavor. I don't feel like garlic taste should be what the entire dish tastes like. There was no seasoning like salt. The shrimp was overcooked. My kids got chicken Alfredo that they enjoyed. Of course we had to order dessert, so I got the Lilikoi cheesecake and my husband got the tiramisu. Both were frozen. You could even see the ice crystals along the top. Sad that it was not freshly made on a regular basis. Not sure that I will be back again.

    It's time for me to update my review and I note that it's been 5 years since I've dined here last. A few things remain constant and the same and they are 1) parking, 2) Chef and Owner Ken still pleasant, 3) price point... $25, 4) BYOB no corkage This visit, I had their shrimp alfredo and my dining partner had the chicken and sausage marinara. We shared an appetizer, their bread with bacon and cheese. Yes, we had our own wine. It never ceases to amaze me the quantity and size of each order. I ate what I could and carried with me 2/3 of my meal. I'm still nibbling away at it. The bacon and cheese bread was okay. They may want to char the top a bit as the bacon (at least on my piece) didn't seem cooked enough. Go early so you can get a seat. Parking available on the lower deck area (outside Mezzo and Ben Franklin Crafts). My suggestion for 2 diners? Order ONE entree, ONE salad or appetizer and share... Call it good with that.....

    Is this byob? And do we need reservations?

    BYOB is welcomed (Pro Tip: Stop at Fujioka's wine shop just around the corner into the other parking lot and score something tasty to bring to dinner). Reservations not required but they only have a few tables inside so I would make one to be safe.… 

    What items are vegan? Besides salad... lol.

    you can get their salad bar or salad.

    Aroma Italia - Monserrat | Waikiki-Kapahulu-Diamond Head area - Island of Oahu…read more Onolicious! Lately I've been dining on soups like pho and ramen, lamb curry stews, and snacking on real fruit smoothies, and I felt like I needed a change of pace. However, I didn't realize I had this burning desire until I saw the foodie pics here on Yelp. It was then that I seriously wondered how I could inject a little more variety into my foodie repertoire. I saw this restaurant listed on Yelp and immediately thought, Ooh, what about Italian??? :D Myself replied: Mmm, that sounds tantalizing, Jules Y.! :D After perusing the menu to make sure I wasn't gonna miss out on a thing, it only took a few seconds for me to hone in on the two items I ultimately ordered: * 16" Florentine pizza (gigante) * Gnocchi Gorgonzola with added mushrooms I added mushrooms to the gnocchi dish, which was a fantastic decision I would not want to go without on future dines of this dish. The pizza was a thin crust topped with luscious mozzarella, rough-chopped garlic, spinach, and ricotta cheese. The gnocchi contained chicken chunks, potato gnocchi, luscious cream sauce, and the mushrooms I added. The Florentine immediately caught my eye. I'm particular about not eating sausage, pepperoni, and other typical pizza meats, so this cheese-and-spinach combination was exactly what I was looking for. I expected something around a medium-sized pizza, but what arrived was this unexpectedly large pie sitting inside a huge, flat pizza box. It seemed enormous! The crust was thin with a nicely fire-charred edge, while the center was packed with luscious cheesy goodness. Random dollops of ricotta, spinach leaves, and these entirely unexpected little chunks of fresh, soft, juicy garlic created little flavor explosions throughout every bite. It made eating the pizza fun because each slice was a little different. Although I thought I was hungry enough to eat a lion, I naturally stopped after only a couple of slices. That turned out to be a bonus because I had delicious leftovers for lunches and dinners over the next couple of days. The Gnocchi Gorgonzola was a different experience altogether. Tender potato gnocchi were coated in a thick, luscious cream sauce with chunks of chicken scattered throughout. The mushrooms I added were thinly sliced and blended in perfectly with the gnocchi, chicken, and creamy sauce. My only criticism is that the dish was saltier than I would have preferred. I think using about half as much salt would have allowed the flavors of the gnocchi and sauce to shine through even more. Aside from that, every bite was pleasantly chewy, rich, creamy, and satisfying. The sauce was everywhere--and that is definitely a good thing. Yum! These two dishes complemented each other perfectly because they offered completely different flavors and textures. The rich, cheesy Florentine pizza paired wonderfully with the creamy Gnocchi Gorgonzola. If I eat here again, I'll probably order these exact same dishes. If you enjoy Italian food as much as I do, I suspect you'll enjoy Aroma Italia's menu.

    LOVED THE CANNIBALE PIZZA !!!…read more I also ordered the linguine with pink sauce and added meatballs and sausage. It was excellent. I think I would probably order it again but with the marinara sauce. The garlic bread with mozzarella cheese was good but I would order the regular garlic bread since it's less rich and would pair better with the entree. I think the garlic bread with mozzarella cheese would be great as an appetizer though. The ingredients on both the pasta and pizza were very generous. If I were to take friends out for Italian food I would bring them here.

The window didn't seem to have a tint and the window shade gave little to no coverage in the spot we were at. It made me not want to make room for dessert. Service: Attentive. I liked the informational experience when the cacio e pepe is cooked in front of you. The only thing that bothered me was I wished one of the workers would wear a headband and wipe his sweat with a towel versus the back of his hands before handling plates and food. Price: Average price for a touristy neighborhood.

    My friends and I came here for dinner because of the Passport collaboration with Kohana Distillery…read more I'm really happy for this collaboration or else I may have never eaten at this wonderful restaurant. Located in China town, you have the normal issues of finding parking. The location is not large and is split into indoor and outdoor seating areas. We got seated right away and the staff was very friendly. The food is an Italian - Asian fusion. We started with the Hokkaido milk rolls and prosciutto san daniele. The bread was good but that black garlic butter made it even better. But for me the prosciutto was the highlight and should not be skipped. Mixed with the pickles in that sesame shell, it was so delicious. For mains we got the gnocchi and capellini. The beef cheek in the gnocchi was so flavorful and soft. And we finished up with the carrot cake. Everything we ate was good. I definitely want to come back again.

    Think I may have just found a new favorite restaurant! It's hard to do fusion in my opinion, but…read moreGiovedi gets it right. - Onion dip: AMAZINGGGG NO NOTES HOLY get this!! - Capellini: 10/10 amazing. The noodles are like vermicelli-style egg noodles which surprised me at first but was very interesting and I grew to really like it. The Dungeness crab sauce was very light and delicious - Kampachi: 7/10, the fish was nice but sauce was too rich and a bit salty. Another downside is that it is the portion size is pretty small. With one shared appetizer and the main, I was still a bit hungry at the end of the night. For the price, I did expect there to be bigger portions.

We ordered the Repetti pizza and fettuccine with diavolo sauce and meatballs. We also had the Caesar salad and focaccia bread with marinara sauce. Our server was Grace. Grace was so friendly and knowledgeable and professional. In addition to the food, Grace made the dining experience exceptional. We sat outside and even though it was a very hot day, the temperature was very comfortable under the roofed area. The Pinot Grigio was excellent! Our meal was brought out in a timely manner and Grace was an attentive server. The Caesar dressing is perfection! The diavolo sauce was delicious and just-right spicy. We loved the meatballs and the fettuccine was cooked perfectly. The pizza!!!!! Wow. Just the right amount of crisp in the crust and the toppings were a delicious combination of flavors. The focaccia with marinara could have been a meal for me. The bread was hot and crispy while also being soft and savory. I couldn't get enough of the marinara. We had a lot of leftovers and ate some for dinner and still have more for tomorrow. Repetti's will be a new place for us to dine and bring friends as often as possible. We were so impressed and could not have wanted any of the experience to be different. Fantastic in every way!

Wait times were minimal between ordering, appetizers, main course, and dessert. Although I ate leisurely, I was there for about 90 minutes. The atmosphere is so enjoyable, especially if you get outdoor seating. Cool, quiet, intimate. . Salads with every entree as well as bread? Makes the prices worthwhile. Every pasta dish was delicious: baked ziti, fettucine, pesto sauce. 10/10. Pizza and calzones if you have someone in your party who doesn't want traditional. Service was great and at the end of the night I plan to be back! . Kids and dog-friendly! Eat in or take out - up to you!

    We had a family dinner--for eight--at Mangiamo by 604. I was excited to have my father and brother…read moreexperience this establishment, as I had a great experience two years ago. My father and brother are both military veterans and enjoyed the fact that this venue was situated at a golf course they patronized before. We all ordered drinks--I ordered a bottle of wine, taking advantage of the Half-off Wine Wednesdays; some tried the alcohol specials and others simply elected to have soda. I ordered a few appetizers for the table and those went quickly: calamari, bruschetta, and artichoke dip. Yum! Main entrees followed and everyone seemed to enjoy their selections. We ordered dessert and were disappointed that they ran out of creme brulee...my father ordered the cheesecake and thoroughly enjoyed it. My only reason for not giving five stars has to do with the outdoor seating. I wish the chairs were more comfortable, as we sat there for awhile, waiting for our server to take our large group order along with waiting for food to come out. There is adequate parking and the restrooms are clean and accessible. An elevator is located in the lobby for those who are not able to easily climb the flight of stairs to the venue. I wish the signage was better, as my 74 year old father took the outside steps, as he thought that was the entrance, per signage downstairs.

    I came maybe two or times in the past. The last time was the other year. I was bummed and felt…read moresorry for those who need to use the elevator to the restaurant and it wasn't working. I don't know how the elderly lady with walker was able to get up the stairs or they weren't able to dine there. I didn't mind this place. It's not like Assaggio, but more like Olive Garden. Food was okay but the view and ambience were nice, especially at Christmas at Night! It's a huge restaurant with seating for parties with a lot of free parking shared with the golfers at the golf course. Indoor and outdoor seating. The last time, my friends weren't too impressed, but we did try variety of dishes from pizza, salad, pasta and appetizers. They have some specials from time to time. So sad that tomorrow is their last day of business according to my friend. Sad to see many restaurants are closing soon.

    I had the best birthday experience at Rigo this past week…read more Rigo is located in Kapahulu. It has a small parking lot and I believe they do valet in the evenings. Otherwise, you can easily park across the street in the Safeway parking lot as there's lots of stalls available. The atmosphere is always so elegant and relaxing with the dim lighting ambiance. I love the high ceilings and the mid-century architecture. From the appetizers to the main entrees, everything was delicious! We had the crostini's with prosciutto, honey, and mascarpone cream. That combination of crunchy, creamy, sweet and salty made this so good! For our entrees, we had the Bolognese and the seasonal Mushroom Duxelles Pizza. Both had their own unique flavors that were savory and flavorful without being overpowering. Of the two, my favorite was the pizza! Along with the flavor, I enjoyed the light crispy texture of the pizza. Lastly, for dessert we had the Chocolate Cassata. They brought the dessert with lit candle and aside from the good company, it made my birthday feel extra special. The service was great and our server was very welcoming, attentive, and kind. Thank you for the wonderful experience and look forward to coming back!
