We went for lunch so the menu was pretty limited. The entrees were good and at a good price, the salad was pretty meh though. I liked the focaccia, it was kinda plain on its own but went well with the pastas. I will probably give it another try at dinner time to see what the full menu looks like.

Ate at the bar and it was terrific, good cocktails, excellent food, and fun service people! Bartender is inventive! Been a while since I’ve been excited with Honolulu dining and Vein has a lot to be excited about!

So I have mixed feelings with this place, the appetizers were really good but some were a little pricey for the portion size. The wife spilled her drink and they replaced it no problem. I ordered the rigatoni and while the flavor was ok the sauce was odd. Never have I had a Bolognese sauce with mushrooms in it and on top of it they were never mentioned on the menu. Everyone else really enjoyed there food and it wasn’t terrible. Really I just felt the portions weren’t on par with the prices. I realize it’s the time we live in but they could’ve stepped it up a little. Would we go back most likely yes but maybe for a drink and appetizers rather than dinner.

The rudest customer service I ever had. The lamb is undercooked and no taste. The guy said that i supposed to tell them temperature to cook .Ahi poached spagetti is horrible. When I told this to the guy, he became was very upset. Cannot take any criticism. He told me that it is italian dish. Just came back from Italy. May be they can google how this dish supposed to look and what they have: no taste, no color, no texture, very dry. Wanted to pay for some part of the check, he refused to give a check. I suggest a business owner to get a feedback about Ahi poached spaghetti and lamb from clients to improve the quality of these 2 dishes.

Sadly, I think I enjoyed our appetizers more than my entree and dessert. Our bill was about $300 not including gratuity for mediocre food. I just dont understand how my sisters uni pasta tasted so salty but my mother’s crab cake was completely under seasoned and swimming in a fancy sounding sauce but it turns out to be tartar sauce. check out our photos of dinner.

I’m glad I gave this place a try. The service was decent, but the food was great! I was disappointed that they didn’t have uni for the bone marrow; they substituted a saffron butter, which worked really well with it.

Vein is an incredible dining location! The food is delightfully flavored, the selection is unique, and the cocktails are excellent! Try their unique twist on an old-fashioned Mai Tai! Words can’t even begin to describe how flavorful and well presented everything is here. The ambiance and decor is refined too! Come here if you want your taste buds to party!! #Clam #Lamb #PorkChop
