Authentic Italian cuisine at a good value – a must try for visitors and locals alike. Isami our server was the highlight of our experience. You can’t go wrong with the sea food bruschetta as a starter. We ordered the squid ink pasta and truffle carbonara as our main dishes. The table-side black truffle shaving directly onto the carbonara was a nice touch. Both dishes were well balanced and incredibly flavorful. Try the gluten-free hot chocolate cake for desert. Outside seating is noisy but provides a great opportunity for people-watching.

An excellent choice for Italian food in Waikiki. The executive chef is Japanese but with long experience working in Italy.

food was good. service was good as well. I made reservations and was seated immediately. only downside is that on the reservation I told them I was celebrating my girlfriends birthday but they didn’t even acknowledge it.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Taormina Sicilian Cuisine and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. From the moment I sat down, the warm and inviting aroma of freshly baked bread surrounded me. The bread itself was absolutely amazing and melted in my mouth.

Made an early reservation during our stay in Waikiki to ensure we had no problems and we didn’t. First off, allow me to tell you that this is some of the best Sicilian dishes I have ever had, short of going to Sicily. Our waiter was Yuki and he was an attentive, fine young man who can converse with you in Japanese if need be. HIs suggestions for our dinner were spot on and we ordered the Veal for our main course, which by the way IS enough for two people. The wine selection can range by glass or bottles up to $700 if you like and they have a fully stocked bar. The restaurant itself is clean, crisp and elegant. Plus, you sit inside our out as the have a covered patio. On the way to the clean restroom, you will pass the chefs working their magic in the kitchen and the aromas are to die for! From start to finish, eating here was an amazing experience and on our next trip I want to try the 4 course meal.

Outdoor seating was the perfect choice for a dinner with friends. Good range of entrees and main meals at typical pricing for the area. Service was excellent and even though it wasn’t a problem the manager apologised for the delay because it was so busy. My Spaghetti Pescatore was very tasty with scallops, prawns and an abundance of clams. Teamed with an Oregon Pinot it was a lovely evening made even more special when the birthday cake and candle arrived.

Food was outstanding, It was amazing. To find this level and quality of Italian food not just in Honolulu, but outside Italia speaks volumes. Everything was prepared and served perfectly and an absolute symphony with every bite. Fantastic atmosphere outside on the patio, and our server was absolutely fantastic.
