Service was top notch, our server Dylan was great, well spoken, classy gentleman, certainly fit the vibe of a nice Italian restaurant. Food is definitely one of the better Italian places on the island, but hard to say best ever. I'd say my fave dishes were probably the panna cotta cause I'm a dessert guy, the octopus was good as well, and the pinwheel was solid. Hm, everything else was cool, but, not exactly outstanding, but still consistently good generally speaking, which is always a good thing. Price was fairly equivalent with the value and taste. Nice little spot worth trying when you're craving a cool Italian restaurant vibe / cuisine. read more

Another great dinner and with help of Dillion our favorite server a perfect night. Kumamoto oysters were available on the half shell. The enormous Veal Chop parmigiana was a show-stopper! Pastas always delicious and appropriately portioned. Don't miss the double stuffed potato but know it feeds 3, as does the delectably charred broccoli. We shared the Mango berry flan and the contemporary version of tiramisu. A delicious Lilikoi Spriter mocktail is my favorite beverage but you need to ask as I don't think it's menued. read more

I would give a rating of 3.5 stars. It's not a 3 star but it's not quite a 4 star. We ordered the clam linguine, pork chop, filet and crab pasta. For sides we had twice baked potato, creamed spinach and garlic potatoes. For appetizers we had the small seafood platter and crab cakes. The appetizers were good. The entrees were ok we didn't think it was anything special especially for the price . I would have to say the desserts were the best. We ordered panacotta, tiramisu and tart. All were delicious. Service was ok nothing spectacular One thing I will say is it's very loud in the restaurant and for some reason it's hard to hear what your server is saying also hard to hear what my party was saying also. Kept having to ask them to repeat themselves. I like to try new places and so I am glad I got to try Cino. Would I come back again? Probably not read more

I've been to Cino a few times now, and it never disappoints! On my most recent visit, JR was my waiter for the second time, and I have to say, his service is outstanding. He's attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and always makes sure everything is just right. This time, I ordered the octopus and steak--both were incredible, as always. The octopus was tender and perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of char, and the steak was flavorful and cooked exactly to my liking. I've also had the uni pasta in the past, which is another great dish with its rich flavor from the sea urchin. If you're looking for excellent food and nice ambiance I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Honolulu. read more

Located in Ward with guest parking in the residential condo, on the first floor towards the ocean side of the building. Reservations are highly recommended beforehand as they were packed even on a week night. Nice date night type of vibe, or a night out with friends. But for me, the music and dining chatter is way too loud, in that it echos and reverberates throughout the dining room, which made it difficult for me to hear the conversations of my company. It's also dimly lit in some areas, making it difficult to read the menus. As for the food, some of the items were a hit and others were a miss. It all depends on your preference on textures and flavor profiles. Also, for reference, the restaurant doesn't have printed dessert menus available, thus the servers are describing it to you tableside. But again, way too loud in the restaurant and I could only hear bits and pieces of what was offered that evening. I wouldn't say it was a bad experience, though I don't know if I personally would be back again. read more

Came for the first time for an anniversary dinner and have been back many times since. Great for date night and special occasions! Ambiance 9/10. Ordered the spanish octopus and crispy tuna rice as appetizers... BEST crispy rice on island in my opinion. Got the duck for entree and my boyfriend got the Pappardelle. Duck was tender but not my favorite ever. I would suggest going for happy hour. All appetizers are amazing! read more

This update is for their weekend brunch only- here is my story I'm compelled to update my review because it's for brunch not dinner and I'm sure this update will illustrate the differences 1. the check in process and the hostess should have been easy as reservations are done via Open Table. The hostess however had the personality of a monk. No smiles no nothing (fyi there were other reviews for the same day implying the same) 2. Asked for a table on the east side because the other side was very extremely noisey (I believe I noted that in my previous review). My dining partner and I selected seats at the bar 3. Our server the bartender was more interested in the Sunday football game IMHO 4A. Food tasted as good as all their meals with the exception of my gnocchi which while it tasted great came to us room temperature (and I am a gnocchi snob such that I fly for a great serving of gnocchi) 4B. Lobster roll was not a roll rather it was lobster mash in mayo on toasted white bread 4C. They were out of the crab cake Benedict which I found odd as we ordered our dishes between 11:45-12:00 This was not my first brunch at Cino and won't be my last but I will say the overall experience was a disappointment read more

Super trendy popular resto at this time. Free parking around Kakaako area! Service was great- luckily we were able to get a table as this place is hard to get into. The food was delicious! It did not disappoint! Highly recommended if you want to celebrate an occasion here, or just to hang out! Definitely will be back. Enjoy! read more

A unique experience... Loved my dinner experience at Cino which is located in Kaka'ako...'A'ali'i Condominium to be exact on the ground level along side besides a few other biz they're located in the very back and what a lovely place. Reservations is a must at this cozy spot as it fills up very fast though the seatings can get quite limited the service is just phenomenal. I started dinner with a drink..."Queen's Sunset" to be exact as this papaya infusad Tequila among other items gave it a kick for sure. As we started with the Chilled Seafood Platter the spectacular presentation is amazing that they had no idea where to begin accompanied by some well crafted sauces this thing of beauty was incredible. 25oz Bone in Ribeye, Branzino, Wagyu Special, and Veal Parmesan was definitely something I'd totally recommend...the ribeye was just prepared perfectly and sliced for easy grazing, Veal was a massive tomahawk like presentation that we didn't expect, Branzino grilled beautifully plated on top of my most favorite chimichurri sauce that had a yummy kick i could have that sauce on everything. The Wagyu was phenomenal the delicate flavors just exploded our palate beyond what we'd expected. Needing something fresh we also ordered broccolini and a Caesar salad which was a bit different as it wasn't romaine but some other type of greens along with what seems like roasted bread crumbs was different but a welcome freshness that i enjoyed. Dessert was Lilikoi sorbet for me with several huge and generous scoops of yumminess a treat indeed that was a great way to end our journey. read more

This was my second time dining at Cino, and it was phenomenal! First of all, the restaurant is beautiful. The decor is very upscale, and you can tell they put attention to detail into every component. Our host, Rachel, was so welcoming and friendly, and the bartender, Kipapa, took amazing care of us. He has extensive knowledge of wine and helped us find delicious pairings for our meals and made great food recommendations. The food was incredible! Everything was so fresh, and it was all just perfect. There's nothing that could make it better! The Kumamoto oysters were so good, I could have eaten a dozen myself! The Crispy Rice was also perfection--the best I've ever had, beating Nobu's by a mile! We also ordered the Charred Spanish Octopus and Salt Roasted Baby Beets. The octopus was amazingly tender, and the beet salad was the perfect palate cleanser. For mains, we had the Herb Pappardelle and the 16oz NY strip with twice-baked potatoes. The pasta was rich and flavorful, and the steak was tender with a perfect crust. But those potatoes--they were out of this world! I wish I could have buckets of them at home. They were so smooth, luxurious, and full of flavor. I'm already looking forward to the next time I can enjoy a delicious meal from Cino! read more

First time at Cino and it was a great experience. We went on a Wednesday night so it wasnt busy at all and our server JR provided the best service. This is an Italian-Mediterranean restaurant with a cozy vibe, great for date night or an after work pau hana. Food was amazing as well, JR had many recommendations and every dish we chose was amongst the most popular and they did not disappoint. Theres lots more I want to try so I'll be back for sure! read more

Came here as one of our last date nights before having a baby. Dinner reservations were easy to make, they're located in the A`eo condo right across from the park. We parked at wholefoods and walked over. Really nice ambiance and it felt really cozy. I ordered the pork chop and a side of the twice baked potato as my starch. Wifey ordered the rigatoni bolognese. The pork chop was massive so much food I had to take home leftovers. To me the real star was that twice baked potato tho, I wasn't expecting it to be so elevated and soft! The staff were really nice and took the time to talk to us about all the options and made small talk as well. Definitely want to come back to try more things off the menu! read more

"We reserve the right to refuse service" for disabilities. We were told that our party with a service animal could not sit in the air conditioned area on a warm and humid night. When advised that they were violating the Americans with Disabilities Act, "prohibiting discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life" and "requires accessibility in private businesses (restaurants, hotels, stores) and commercial facilities" a gentleman (waiter? bartender? said that they have "the right to refuse service." It is a tragedy that there are many who purport untrained and unruly animals are service animals, but that (and treatment like what we received at Cino's) is a great diservice to people who genuinely require aid to participate in public life. Requiring those with disabilities to not be able to sit in a cool environment after an exhausting day is awful. We left and will not be back. I hope that this review will have them be better educated and more humane in future. read more

Dinner in Honolulu, Hawaii... Many of my friends (Angel, Lyla, Rod, Jo, Lorie, Scott, Kristian, Darryl, Jenel, Nadia, Shigeru, Peter C., and Donna) wrote 5-star reviews for Cino... I had high expectations! I got my neighbor to go with me because she's blunt about food... haha! We parked for free at the Ward Entertainment Center (under the Consolidated Theater) and walked over. Located across from Nori Bar, and down the sidewalk from Planted by La Tour, Cino was at the end of the row of businesses. The interior was rather large and a bit noisy. The convenient restroom was pleasant but had a strange odor like stagnant water. My neighbor and I discussed if the fragrance could be from a human, but no... because it remained for a while... (Gas would dissipate.) Hailee was our cheerful, competent server! She was efficient and friendly! We were really looking forward to enjoying the food, but the asparagus was too salty (we thought about taking it home and rinsing it off); the duck legs were on the tough side and were rather tart (the sliced meat was succulent); and the butterfish was drowning in miso sauce. We both liked the beet appetizer with goat cheese! My favorite was the crab spaghetti. My neighbor had her first taste of uni and let me have the rest! I'm glad that I got a chance to visit... Bucket list item was checked off! I'd go back for other things on the menu, but I'm not in a rush. read more

We came here for my mom's birthday & the food was very yummy -- Pork Chop, Rib Eye ($88), Crab Pasta, Linguine Clam Sauce Vongole, Tiramisu, Garlic Potatoes, & Calamari!

Wonderful new gem in Ward Village serving flavorful Italian fare. Excellent service from Dylan. Contemporary decor with inside and outside seating. Love the charred tender octopus appetizer and the popular Cino pinwheel truffle pasta. Uni crab pasta was alright with a light sauce. (For a creamier uni pasta, I recommend checking out Arancino.) The star of the meal was the truffle pinwheel pasta, which I highly recommend. Even though my wallet was crying, my palate was in heaven ;) For dessert, the tiramisu is thick like a chocolate bar on the heavier side. The lilikoi (passionfruit) sorbet is light and fruity. I want to try the panna cotta next time. Overall, we were impressed with the food, but the loud noise level from other diners can be an issue. On a Monday night for dinner, we happened to be seated in the back room with a large party, and it was uncomfortably loud for all the other tables in the room. The restaurant is working on some sound dampening cushions so hopefully that will be coming soon. In the meantime, I recommend opting to dine outdoors if you are seated near a large party so you can truly enjoy your fancy meal and hear your dining partners! read more

A great place to celebrate! Cino has such a nice atmosphere, kinda strange to note, but their chairs are SO comfortable and the dining room is beautifully decorated. Indoors can get a bit noisy. I highly recommend trying a dinner special--I ordered the agnolotti which was perfectly cooked + filled with sweet corn and topped with a corn foam. I also tried bites of my parents' branzino (daily dish special) and ribeye. Another standout was the fluffy twice baked potatoes! I ended my night with a refreshing lilikoi sorbet (always save room for dessert!). Couldn't ask for a better dining experience--and excellent service was the icing on the cake :) we will be back! read more

Since its inception in last fall of 2023, Cino has had consistently good food and decent service. I've deducted one star because the restaurant is cramped and noisy; it is not the best place for a tête-à-tête to reconnect with a friend. I also deducted one star because they seem to be short on staff, my server put in our food orders but forgot to refill our glasses. read more

Cino - Italian Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

So fortunate to have dined at Cino. I had a grand time at this fairly new restaurant in the A'ali'i Residential Condo. I've seen Yelp Elites Jo Y, Terri K, Peter C posted about this restaurant a while ago and was curious where it was on Queen St. Fortunately Jo Y asked if I wanted to try here for my birthday and I was blessed. It was a classy Italian fusion Restaurant with outstanding food. Price was on the higher side but the food was amazing and so was the service. Portions were generous too. It's nice to come for special occasions or in a large group so you can try many of their delicious offerings! We had JR as our server and got nothing but the best from him. He was very attentive and personable. He answered all our questions and knowledgable of the menu items. It was cool that the Executive Chef is from Hawaii and returned home from Las Vegas and brought the General manager, our waiter and others here to work with him. We were fortunate to meet the Executive Chef and General Manager. The only thing it can kind of loud inside with everyone talking. There were some outside seating too to escape the noise, but it's nicer to be inside. It was cooler and beautiful inside. I was told later that the Mayor Blangiardi was also dining in the house while we were there. We had dinner here but they also serve Brunch too. We were able to try the pork chops, Market Fish Branzino and Twice baked potato! You have to see the photos! It was so different and was so impressed by their presentation and uniqueness of all their dishes. I haven't seen the Twice baked potatoes before. I knew it would be good if Jo Y. had ordered and tried this before and even the 14 day dry-aged pork chops. So tender and juicy. The Market Fish Branzino was whole and deboned. It was little on the spicy side but it was flavorful. it was even beautifully plated. I was able to share two desserts of tiramisu & panna cotta topped with fresh mixed fruits. Thank you for the complimentary birthday dessert! It was great birthday dinner with good company and great service from Cino! It's one of my favorite places and would definitely repeat and dine again. I also don't mind trying their weekend brunch menu! They have numerous reviews already with favorable 5-star rating. You just know it's a good place to try. Thank you Jo. Recommend to park at the Ward Theatre parking or the Wholefoods parking lot. It's next to Planted by La Tour and Hawaii USA Federal Credit Union and the near the Rinka restaurant. read more

For date night, my fiancé and I decided to go to Cino. We really enjoyed our first dinner there. The decor is amazing and I loved sitting at table 50. I was really looking forward to having a nice evening and enjoying a beautiful filet mignon for dinner. We started with a couple of appetizers. The crab cakes and a Caesar salad. The crab cakes were okay, nothing special. However, I did enjoy the Caesar. Instead of a traditional Caesar salad, they did their own spin to it. It had radicchio and romaine. I enjoyed the bitterness of the radicchio in the salad. I also liked their take on croutons. Rather than having big pieces of croutons (that are so awkward to eat sometimes), they did a dusting of toasted bread crumbs, which I enjoyed. As I mentioned earlier, I was really looking forward to the filet mignon. I hadn't enjoyed a nice steak in a minute. I think it was a beautiful cut of meat, until it was cooked. There was too much char on the steak for my liking. Now where I liked the bitterness of the radicchio in the Caesar, I did not enjoy the bitterness I tasted when biting into my steak. I tried really hard to enjoy it, but I just couldn't do it. That bitterness remained as an aftertaste for quite some time. I should have mentioned something to the server, but I had eaten half of it by then and didn't want to be that guest. You know..the one who eats most of their food and then complains about it afterwards. I may come back again for their pasta dishes, but definitely not when I'm craving a steak. read more

Service was knowledgable and attentive. 5/5 Ambiance was classy and chich 5/5 Drinks were inventive and delicious. Flavors were distinct and the fat washed liquors muted the tast of alcohol. 5/5 Food was mostly good, but a few slip ups. Uni & Ikura- Uni was slightly bitter and portion size was miniscule, I wish I would have been prompted that they were individual sized 2-biters, would have ordered one per person 3/5 Fritto Misto- Delicious, lightly battered, sweet and sour peppers provided pops of acid to really set apart. 5/5 Pappardelle- Pasta was tender, with slight bite, but bolognese was flat. Lacked richness and could have used additional salt or parmesan to season. 3/5 Crab Spaghetti- light and bright, while still rich and comforting. Exactly what I want to eat in Hawaii. 5/5 Tomahawk Ribeye (daily special)- Temperature was more medium than medium rare. Good char on the steak and good dry age flavor, but there was a lot of connective tissue more than I would have liked for a steak at this price point. 4/5. read more

We had been at a nearby establishment and were super disappointed with our experience there, that we didn't eat much and were still hungry. In our wandering around, we saw Cino and I mentioned that I had been wanting to check it out. I'm so thrilled we did. With no reservations on a Friday night, we walked in around 730 and were seated quickly. Our server was incredible, very communicative and excited about the menu, chef, and restaurant. We enjoyed the items we ordered and had to take home leftovers. It's a smooth, warm vibe, with moderate noise levels. I'm excited to go back again and try more items. read more

Came here to say for my birthday and don't regret it. It's pretty funny because we tried to go to a few other places but they were full already and finally we landed on Cino's. So glad we did because the food was delicious. All the staff that we met were absolutely amazing. From the hostess to the bartender to our waiter. Everyone was amazing.

What a beautiful ambiance! A perfect restaurant for special occasions. I happen to celebrate my birthday dinner here and our server JR was outstanding. Upon seated, he was very descriptive about how the restaurant came to be and explained their menu. We trusted him on our choices and we were blown away. Located at Ward by Holey Grail. Just a few walking distance. For appetizer, we ordered Fritto Misto with Beef Tartare and they were delicious. Entree we ordered New York Strip and Wagyu Special with Broccolini and Crispy Garlic Potatoes. Dessert was complementary and we got 2, Tiramisu 10/10 and I forgot what it was called but it was Mango and Coconut Cream. We both were impressed and would love to come back and try other item on their menus. read more

Visited here almost a year later they opened for the second time. The first time was just a few days after they opened the restaurant. The service here has much improved since then. The waiter explained the menu and recommended the menu well. We had caprese, crispy rice, crab pasta, filet mignon, twice baked potatoes, and tiramisu. We all loved everything except one thing (if we may ask),if we could have au jour sauce, we could have enjoyed the steak more. Thank you very much for good foods! read more

Mmmmm, thank you Yelp Elite Terry K. for introducing me to this fine restaurant. Having just returned to Honolulu, I was not aware of this new location. Such a pleasant dining experience and the food was exquisite! We started with cocktails and the charred octopus. This had a nice smoky flavor and it was so tender. It paired well with a light romesco. Call me crazy, but I'm a sucker for beef tartare. This was my favorite because the flavors and textures were a match made in heaven! The filet mignon was soft and the tapioca puff was crisp. The egg yolk emulsion was light and the capers gave it a bold burst. When eaten together, there's a harmonious balance that made my heart sing :) After two wonderful appetizers, we decided to share the osso bucco. This was fork tender and tasted great with the saffron risotto. They are generous with the saffron too! And the crispy garlic potatoes were on point! Thank you to our server JR for being so attentive to us. This was a lovely dining experience and I know I'll return! read more

Amazing amazing experience, service, vibe, and food. Can't rave enough - highly recommended. Love the design and esthetics of the establishment. Definitely order the seafood platter to start - some of the best prawns ever. Everything we ordered was good across all the mains and desserts. Never been to a restaurant where every single side was so well thought out and so good. You really can eat the sides as a main because they are all so delicious. read more

My friend and I had a wonderful night with appetizers and main course.

As I go to this restaurant more and more, the review rating starts to drop. I noticed that this place is very inconsistent. The steaks come out over charred, undercooked, perfect but more than not, overcooked. I think the lighting in the back is throwing off the cooks. Even when I get a perfect steak, it's not seasoned very well. The parking is at the Wholefoods parking lot so this is not an issue. The portions at this place are also very small. If you're looking for a place that'll make you full, this place is not it. We usually end up going to Nori Bar across the street afterwards. read more

Ambiance: 15/10 Food: 10/10 Service 10/10 Definitely one of the places I've been recommending to my friends both visiting and local.

The atmosphere is gorgeous and definitely made me feel like my money went a long way. read more

In looking for a place to eat at for Father's day, I wanted someplace with seafood since that is my dad's favorite. I thought Cino wouldn't be busy for brunch since it is in a newer and currently remote area at the back end of the new 'A'ali'i building. Well I was wrong, a lot of people did know about it and it was full with a steady stream of customers. As for the location, it is at the west end (Ewa side) of the street that is in between Whole Foods and the theaters. Just keep heading down to where they are building the new park. I believe you can park at 'A'ali'i, but I found parking at the theater garage. At the entrance is the bar and a few tables to the right. The dinning area is long and narrow with most of the tables to the left of the entrance and there even a few tables outside on the park side. The decor is hard to describe. Sort of art deco and floral at the bar and to the right, then more steakhouse and art deco on the left. It is a nice hip and sophisticated look. The noise level was on the louder end due to the hard surfaces and tables being a little close to each other. As for food you got the short rib loco moco, crab spaghetti, and crab cake eggs Benedict. I got to sample the loco moco and it was very good. The meat was tender, a step up from the usual hamburger patty. I got the crab spaghetti which I enjoyed. Don't be afraid of the uni on top, it just added a slight creamy and briny taste, not that fishy tasting at all. Overall it was rich without being too much, just right. I didn't get to try the Benedict but I heard it was just OK, could not really taste the crab that much. We also got the crispy Parmesan potatoes which were smashed potatoes and it might have been my favorite! I would definitely recommend getting it as a side and sharing. Service was great and attentive, especially considering how busy it was. It would be nice to see how the dinner food is. Brunch overall was good except the so-so review my dad gave of the crab cake eggs Benedict. I like that it is a different type of experience than other restaurants in town. Prices are on the higher side but for the most part the food was good and definitely consider it for a nice brunch or dinner! read more

I was staying in Kakaʻako with my cousin and decided to grab a drink at Cino with some friends. The place was pretty packed, but we managed to snag seats at the bar--where we met Justin. Based on what we told him we liked, Justin crafted each of us the most amazing drinks. I'm usually not a fan of craft cocktails (they tend to leave me puking in the parking lot), but he somehow nailed the perfect gin drink--light and not overloaded with sugar. What really stood out, though, was Justin himself. There's nothing worse than a bartender who thinks they're too cool and lacks personality. Thankfully, Justin was personable, hilarious, and genuinely fun to talk to. What started as "just one drink" turned into seven... and once you hit seven, you might as well go for fifteen. When Cino closed, Justin even recommended another spot and told us to ask for his friend--who also ended up taking great care of us. Although our "mellow night out" spiraled into dignity-crushing debauchery, it was hands down one of the best nights we've had in a long time. I moved to the mainland a few years ago, so I'm no longer up to speed on the cool spots--but Justin not only made our night, he gave us great recs that made the whole trip even more unforgettable. The ambiance at Cino was great--and let's be honest, after drink number three, a drink is a drink. But I'd absolutely come back just for the service. Justin and the rest of the staff made it more than worth it. read more

Such a wonderful place to have a dinner date. The ambiance was so elegant and the furniture choice made sense. The experience was so different than most places. The food was absolutely wonderful!

The bolognese was delicious & the crispy parmesan potatoes were to die for. The service was wonderful from Checking in to our server. Our next best thing, the dessert!! Tiramisu tasted wonderful!!

My girlfriend and I had heard about this restaurant and decided to come around their first few months. The interior is absolutely beautiful and the really adds to the ambiance. We were here for our galentine's day celebration and it was cute seeing other groups and couples too. Everything we had was good, but nothing quite stood out amazingly to us. I did appreciate how the server knew we were splitting everything and brought share utensils for each dish. That really was a small but extra step that we appreciated as an indicator of their service. Our favorite was surprisingly the twice baked potato, both of us couldn't get enough of it even compared to our main dishes. The wild boar was a little sweet after a while, which I was not expecting and usually boar is more gamey. I don't think there is parking specifically in their building so we were a little confused as to where it was located. Good reminder to park in one of the surrounding lots like the one attached to Dave & Busters. read more

This place lost 2 stars based on the awful perfume being pumped into the space alone. It really distracted me from what was probably amazing food. Don't they realize that smell really affects taste?!?! I went twice, the second time was not my choice, but I was trying to be social and we were just getting drinks so I wasn't worried about the smell affecting the taste of my food. The first time I got the bolognese and i can say it was really good (because i took some home and was able to enjoy it in my perfume-free apartment). I hope they stop the perfume so I can go back and truly enjoy it. read more

Booked a reservation on open table on this gloomy and rainy Sunday. We were quickly seated by our gracious server. Got a cute little corner booth. Upon walking in, the place feels very intimate and has such a cool vibe. I loved the colors and the way the restaurant was set up. Menu had something for everyone's palate. From Pastas to Seafood to Steaks. We started with fresh oysters and an ahi tartare. Had an Orange and Yuzu cocktail with that. Oysters very fresh and so good, served with a vinegar based sauce and lemon. Delish! The fish tasty as well. The presentation was beautiful! Better yet you could eat the decorative portion of it! (See picture) Entrees.... Debating if I should have pasta or duck? The duck won! The dry aged rib eye was also ordered. Sides of twice baked potato and broccolini were ordered as all sides were Ala carte. Rib eye had a nice char and was very tender and had great flavor. This rib eye was $88. Duck was prepared in a citrus base and had a slight smoky taste. It was good until the drumstick. I know duck should be served a bit on the red side however I felt that drumstick was rare. I could not eat it. I did enjoy the rest of it. Duck was $48. Sides were excellent then came dessert :). The moment our server said Panna Cotta that was it. I had a nice Americano to go with. Panna cotta was so smooth topped with fresh berries it was perfect! Time to wrap it up and paid the bill. Including tip the bill came out to $313 and change. Definitely would go back to try the pastas. read more
