Don De Luca’s is hands down the best Italian restaurant on the Big Island. The service is wonderful, the food is tasty and comes to two portion sizes (half and full), and they, of course, have a bar service. The Chicken Marsala was amazing—the chicken was cooked to perfection. The soup of the day (creamed spinach) was nice, but could have had a stronger flavor to it. The brown Sunday comes with your choice of ice cream, and sure hits the sport!

Enjoyed an absolutely perfect 4 course meal at Dom De Luca! Began my culinary experience with a cup of their soup du jour, a potato leek that was just lovely! Then on to a wonderful caprese salad with local tomatoes and a heavenly balsamic drizzle. For my main I delighted in a couple slices of my Caprino e Fico personal pizza, which was perfectly crafted from house made dough and topped with goat cheese, fig, and arugula..sensational! I already new I needed to save room for their Panna Cotta and I’m so glad I did! I can’t express just how smooth and creamy and light and fluffy and wonderful! I may have shed a tear! Everything was just absolutely delicious! To top it all off, the atmosphere was lovely with magnificent fine art all around! I cannot wait to return to Dom De Luca!! Mahalo Nui!!

I wish I had access to dine here on a regular basis! My husband and I stopped by for lunch. I love chicken Alfredo fettuccine but my husband usually hates it. I got the half portion and realized I needed another plate for dessert! My husband tried my pasta and was thoroughly impressed too. We fought over the last few bites. I genuinely have not had better pasta than this! Service was also so friendly and kind. Definitely need to make a stop here!

Great evening here with wonderful food and service. You can tell its good by the number of locals that were eating here. The Fish & Hog down the road had a 2 hour wait, so we came here and we were so glad we did. Wonderful pasta and pizza, great wine list, friendly and prompt service. The manager Patrick went out of his way to make my family feel welcome. Keep up the good work!

Best Mushroom cream soup I have ever had. Staff was so amazing, they really made you feel comfortable and provided recommendations. We plan on going back again soon. Can’t wait to try some of the pasta dishes on the menu.

By far the best meal during our entire trip to Hawaii AND the absolute best server! Would like to come back to see the beautiful smile behind the mask. Five people, two different salads, six different entrees, four different desserts and nice wine list. They make their own pasta – everything was outstanding! When was the last time that happened? Having the option of half or full orders was a huge plus, as the choices were difficult. Half orders or Pasta Carbonara and Chicken Marsala pictured. Garlic bread with all entrees too. This was also the only restaurant we have been able to get a reservation at to date during our trip. It was 30 minutes from where we were staying but well worth it! Try it if you are in the area!

Went for a drive up the Hamakua Coast Easter Sunday. We stopped by Dom de Luca’s. A beautiful Italian restaurant hidden in the KTA shopping center. Nicely decorated with a full bar. Amazing selection of spirits 12 year old Scotch and Cognac as well as an excellent selection of wine and champagne.

While this place might be rated highly it was hard for us to justify it as a” fine dining experience” plastic laminated menus and strip mall atmosphere made it challenging

I was staying in Kona and I drove one hour to here, was super worth it! Service was great and amazing fresh pasta. The potato leek soup was the soup of the day and was very flavorful! Definitely think the drive is worth it!
