    I found this restaurant down a small street in Waikiki and immediately was greeted by an outdoor hostess. Walking through the doors transformed me into a little Italy. Charming checkered table cloths, great decor, intimate close setting. The servers knew their product and were professional and incredibly welcoming, checking back consistently without being obtrusive. I had the Tagliatelle - homemade pasta - and salad- fabulous. The whole dinner was an escape away from the bustle of Waikiki and into its own utterly charming dining experience.

    David was awesome! He walked us through a sake flight and helped us choose one we liked, then guided us through the menu. Everything was on point, but the ahi cutlet and spicy salmon roll were real stand outs. 10/10 would go again
