Very simple pizza pasta place that is vietnamese ran. I love the food and the people we always do lasagna and pasta.

SOLID and HONEST PIZZA AND SANDWICH PLACE ON KING STREET The thing about this restaurant is that you won't have to pawn anything valuable to pay for your meal here. It's not an artisan pizza but the prices are good. If you want to do artisan then Pizza Mamo or Iliili would be my choice but be prepared to cough up some dough. I also tried their turkey and cheese sandwich ... and for $12 for a foot long it was a great deal. Lots of turkey and vegetables. Parking was easy on King Street in the meter stall read more

Ate here for the first time with my family. We ordered the large sized 3 topping pizza for $22. We chose pepperoni, garlic, and bacon. The pizza came out with little portions of the toppings. The pizza was thin which actually made it kind of delicious, but it was pretty bland and the bacon was actually Canadian bacon...big difference lol...We also ordered the garlic cheese bread which was pretty much like a long sub bread with garlic cheese all over it. The staff was really nice and helpful. The parking lot is a decent size with a good amount of stalls. The parking is located in a driveway just past the restaurant itself. This restaurant is located on King/Keeaumoku St., but more on the King Street side before Panda Express. read more

Just had the Lasagna wow awesome everything in greta To Pizza lover SUBS too Reference: A Get things done attitude Sherry, Zen and Jimmy and Tsun The old travel industry had an expression: Orchid and / or Onion letters hopefully to a Corporate CEO who has empathy .... this is an "orchid". Had managed several organizations before becoming a reluctant hotelier in Hawaii. Client service is always a tough challenge; in America, it has become a disgrace. We will remain loyal clients because of this level of service, mahalo. It is always a pleasure in any walk of life or endeavor to see professionalism demonstrated. zen , clearly, is "professional" zen is a professional members of your team. Please accept my heartfelt compliments for having employed such a fine person. It is sad that all outfits do not have more "Get Things Done" Type People...... Amen After some frustration, zen executed remedial action. Embarrassing for all who preceded. Never gave up -- checking until he got the job done -- well done. No wonder the overseas businesses are surpassing our domestic efforts. They have people who get the job done, instead of passing it along to another. Bravo Zulu to you for motivating such fine team members! It is a daunting task pleasing all the people all the time. zen hits the mark. read more

I'm not a sub sandwich kind of person, but La Pizza Rinna has won me over. I don't know what it is, but I think they make the best sub sandwiches. I've even asked others who have tried their subs and we all agree it's the best. The meats are fresh. The fresh made bread is the winner. Not no cut in half loaf the 6 inch is it's own hoagie. They also give a tasty vinaigrette for the sandwich on the side. Personally, I like dipping my sandwich in it. My favorite is the super sub. My friend always gets their pepperoni pizza. To me the mini size is more than enough for one. It's always hot and oozing with cheese. Soo delicious. They are located on King St., makai (ocean) side, between Keaaumoku St and Kaheka St. Street side, metered parking is available on both sides of the street. Free parking on Saturdays. They are closed during siesta time and open again at five for dinner. Their service is quick and friendly. Lunch time can get busy as there are about 7 or 8 tables. Take it from someone who can barely finish 4 inches of other sub places and can now eat a whole 6 inch at this place... you gotta try them out. read more

Order the vegetarian pizza, and it was a party in my mouth. I will definitely order it again! Especially like the tomatoes and onions on the Vegetarian Pizza read more

Extreme disappointment. stepped into a spot I have not been to for awhile. I choose a old fall back and ordered the Sausage and peppers sandwich. The 12" did not appear to be 12" The sandwich may have had one link and ahandful of diced raw peppers. There was no evidence of cheese. Sauce was bland and lacked any character. Dishing out nearly $16 for this experience left me hungry and frustrated. The search continues for adecent meal read more

I love how they know how to serve people with their wonderful food. The side sausages are amazing. The garlic bread with cheese is the way to go. Their service and friendliness is so proper and polite. Their food is great. They have imported root beer and drinks read more

I came in for lunch during the week and it's a small place so it was pretty full. There was a line to place your order at the window but after I sat down the waitress came by to take my order so I'm guessing the line is just for take out. Whoops, rookie!! I had my eyes on their large 16" pizzas because the bigger the better right?? I think I blew my servers mind because she couldn't believe one person would order such a big pizza. But name another food that is better leftover?! Besides, individual pizzas always make me feel like I'm in trouble, or I'm on a diet, or I'm 5. I digress. They're quick, it took about 15min to get my pizza so I was easily in and out within an hour. Very important when you're just wanting to have a quick pizza party over during lunch. The crust was thinner than I expected based on pictures I've seen online, but it was still a solid pizza. I like pizza doughier than the average person so take that with a grain of salt. They're not my favorite pizza on island but if you're in the area and you get the pizza shakes, La Pizza Rina is a great choice. Muuuch better than the chain ones around the corner! read more

La Pizza Rina - Large pepperoni, sausage, and jalapeño pizza - Italian Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The only place that close at 9.30 PM but if you go at 9.00 PM is closed and the waitress make up the table and chairs. No pizza in this way.

Love the sub sandwich the sauce is awesome and an extra container complements the salad that is good on its own! They specialize in fresh baked and the ingredients taste like they were made from scratch. Tortellini is also a great dish to have. With the freshly made crotons it makes this a wonderful main. 5 stars for this restaurant! read more

My favorite place to eat Italian food, the past 15 years! Great pasta, and great Pizza. Even the best Pastrami Sandwich in town, until today. They changed their pastrami meat from Real delicious pastrami meat, to a Pastrami Cold Cut! NO CAN! I can get that anywhere like Safeway. Very disappointed. I won't be ordering Pastrami there again If it's not the real thing. Concerning their other sandwiches, they have the best sandwiches with vegis and their own salad dressing, and soft tasty bread. But for me when I wanted Pastrami this was the place to go. I spoke with the boss lady and she told me this was a healthier piece of meat. I agree yes. But if i wanted healthy I would have ordered a salad. The sandwich just wasn't a great tasting as the real meat. The cold cut is just ok. Here's hoping The "Lady Management" boas Lady, brings back the real pastrami. Mahalo's still for all the other great menu items! read more

La Pizza Rina - Antipasto salad - Italian Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is my mother's favorite pizza place. It's location is pretty conveniently located near one of her doctor's offices so we tend to have lunch here after her appointments. She loves their antipasto salad and the combo pizza. Sometimes they have baked spaghetti as a special and she likes that too. The tables are very spaced out (I think even in non-covid times) so dining in is very nice. But they definitely do a lot of take out as well. I've heard that they've had some issues with the back parking lot for the building so if you're parked in the back you can ask one of their staff to walk to your vehicle if you want an escort for safety. read more

Not good pizza at all from nyc this was lower quality than little Cesar or dominos the only plus was it came out hot and the meatballs were not good tasting the sauce tasted from a jar. I wouldn't waste my money here. The dough tasted frozen not good at all. Try someplace else. 50.00 for a cheese pizza pie some spaghetti with two meatballs and cheese garlic bread was not worth it at all. read more

The Super Sub is no longer super. ‍ I totally understand that prices of everything have gone up, but it's SUPER disappointing when the price of something goes up and the quality of the product goes down. I think of what I use to get when I ordered a "Super Sub" from here and what I got today was not even close. read more

Great pizza and lasagna with 2 sausages filled us up. What made tonight's even better was the service. I accidentally not only spilled water but the glass broke upon impact on the floor. The waitress was so nice and friendly as she cleaned up my mess! Can't take me anywhere! So embarrassed I left a 40% tip!! Definitely will be back and hopefully no glasses will be broken! Sorry. read more

Had the meatball sandwich. Was ok. Tastes like canned sauce. The meatballs were flavored well but the sauce was just regular. If you're craving a meatball sandwich and you are in town this will suffice but you may not be super happy. read more

I have driven past this restaurant a gazillion times but I have never been here before until recently. I don't know what made me suggest coming here, but I'm glad I did. I was prepared to park on King St., but then I noticed that parking is available behind the building for free. Nice! Not sure when, but I think after a certain hour, it turns into one of those park and lock lots where you put money into that box thing. It's a small restaurant and there was one lady hustling throughout the place taking orders, bringing food out, and bussing tables too. Back in the kitchen, I saw about four people who were equally busy cooking and turning out food. At first we were thinking about getting a pizza, but then we changed our mind when we saw bubbling platters of pasta dishes go past us. So we ordered a Lasagna with Meat Sauce and a Baked Spaghetti with Meatballs. And with all pasta dishes you get a basket of buttery garlic bread. After a few minutes we got our order, and like the other table, it was bubbling hot. Literally. Both meals were good with lots of gooey cheese, but the sauce was a little weak and the meatballs were average. But it's not like I was expecting to be blown away. So for the price, I say it's alright and I would order a pasta dish again. If you want something other than water to drink, there's a fridge in the corner where you can help yourself to canned and bottled sodas. Just add it to your tab. read more

Turkey & Cheese please! Yes, I normally come here for a little pizza, & the Italian Salad.........but today, I felt like doing a sandwich! Met up with my friend today, and upon ordering up a sub sandwich, I decided on the Turkey & Cheese Sub. I must say, the bread they use for their sandwiches is so fresh! I'm not sure if the bake it on site, or if they order it in.....but regardless, the bread is all so crispy on the outside, yet when you bite into it, the bread is all so soft on the inside! Noms! When you order a sub here, be prepared to eat! They really know how to pack in a lot of meat into their sandwiches, and the sandwich comes with sliced lettuces, tomatoes, & onions. The sandwich is also topped with some kind of light oil/vinegar dressing which really compliments the taste of the sub! For a great sandwich...........you can't go wrong with this place! I can honestly tell you, it's 1000% better tasting than eating a Subway sandwich! Chance 'em gang! No can go wrong! read more

TL,DR on bottom. This place sucked. Ok. So first of all, the food is a classic italian restaurant mainly known for their pizza. I don't usually review, but this time i'm pretty pissed off. So I went into the shop a little before 6:00. It was a small shop on the side of King Street. There wasn't much of a rush, just a classic ambiance of greasy itallian restaurant- No complaints yet. I put in a pizza order at 5:30 so 30 minutes beforehand set for ASAP. I paid and sat down on a table for two not giving much thought. A total of $64.40 for a large pizza, super sub, two salads, and garlic bread. It seemed fair. I waited 45 minutes... A family of 8 came and left before I got my food. I picked it up and checked my order. I was missing two salads ($20.50). So there was a manager, let's call him Fernandez. He was a seemingly nice dude with a classic itallian look. I told him my problem and asked for a receipt to fact check this stuff. Fernandez dealing with a distressed customer was not too bad. He dug up a receipt and checked it. He gave it a glance and charged me 15 more bucks. I was shooting him looks of, "You gotta be kidding me." But he proceeded to show me his old school calculator and held out his hand. I paid in reluctant dismay (two words same meaning to emphasize). So this whole conundrum is over the course of 15 minutes thus the pizza and bread (at least the stuff i got) was pretty much Digorno's frozen pizza at that point. I am disappointed and salty about what had happened. Fernandez really let me down for last (and first) time. Never going to Cold Pizza Rina again. Couple of side complaints: - terrible lasagna (stick to pizza guys) 12$ - the sub had cheap bread (basically white bread) - cold food - EXPENSIVE SALAD Notes: It was takeout No, nobody ate one of the pieces of lasagna... it's that expensive for that small tldr: La Pizza Rina charged extra money for cold pizza and lasagna. Also it has really expensive prices for small food. Coming here? Stick to Pizza Hut Thank You For Listening To My Rant. read more

I had a small meatball and cheese hero sandwich, it was delicious as always! Same price as a Subway mb hero but 100x better!

Been here for a previous visit ordered the spaghetti. I enjoyed it then and that's what got me to come back. This time I ordered it with meatballs. Gabriel B. ordered the cheese ravioli and Mog P. got the fettuccine with sausage. The service was okay. We did receive the menus immediately but from there everything took a while. A refill on my water didn't occur until we were practically done eating. Waited for the bill quite awhile. Very hard to get the waitresses attention as if she was just avoiding my look. This time around I was not happy with the spaghetti. There was a medicine taste to it. Sometimes this can occur if you burn the garlic. Not sure if that's what happened here I just didn't like it. A first time for me where I did not use the bread to wipe the sauce off my plate and eat it leaving a spotless dish. The garlic cheese bread itself was weak. Not enough cheese. Definitely not enough garlic I couldn't even taste it. Oh, and it was burnt around the edges. Really don't like having to scrape that stuff off before eating. The meatball, not enough meat. There's meat taste but it's over powered by the bread stuffing and other ingredients. Sorta mushy instead of meaty. Gabriel B. was happy with his cheese ravioli served very hot. While waiting for that to cool down, he was digging into Mog P.'s fettuccine with sausage which came out delicious. I couldn't tell what kind of noodles they were. Fettuccine yes, but they were a different color like may be wheat? It did taste good and couldn't tell too much about the noodles but if they are using something different than what we as customers would expect I would hope we were informed. I should have asked just for my own fyi. I'll probably come back again hoping for better. However, in reading the past recent reviews, I may be hoping for too much. read more

Our waitress was super nice & our cheese pizza came out fast & was so delicious! Indoor eating area was super clean.

Just moved back and how the mighty have fallen. This used to be the best place in town for ny style subs. That is no longer the case. Bread and sauce is still great! One thing I really like is how they packed lettuce tomatoes and onions in the side. The big problem is the lack of meat! The 12inch super sub basically had one piece of each meat and cheese. There was plenty of open bread space. The meat layer was very skinny. So disappointing. It wasn't cheap either. I won't be coming here for a sandwich again. . read more

This pizza joint is the cutest thing ever. There is ONE server and she is AMAZING, and has been working there forever. I went with my friends last night and it was jam packed. Probably because the food is so delicious. So between my three girlfriends, we ordered the La Pizza Rina sub, the large salad and the Small pizza with two toppings. The salad is so delish, it comes with an assortment of meats. My favorite is ham rolled with cheese! The dressing is light, and tasty (GREAT to dip your sub in for extra sauces). The pizza was super hot, fresh dough and oozy cheese. The portion I believe came with 8 great sized pieces. Lastly the sub was the perfect size probably to share with two people. I tried to cut it three ways. Regardless, the meats are heavy and it is accompanies with cheese and lettuce. And course topped with the delicious salad sauce. Overall the experience is great, the food is excellent and the service cant get any better! read more

I can't believe I haven't been here before! The boyfriend and I have been trying to budget when we eat out as we have some major trips coming up and he was craving spaghetti. I've had their sub before (courtesy of the boyfriend for dropping off dinner before night shift), and it was soooo tasty! Even more so with their special dressing as a dipping sauce. The night we went the restaurant itself is on the smaller side with about 6-8 tables for seating if you're dining in. We were seated right away and ordered our food. We had the antipasto pasta, garlic bread, and baked spaghetti. Now it's definitely not authentic but it's soooo good and wallet friendly. For the 3 items between the two of us, we were full and it cost about $30.xx. The food came out quickly and in order: salad, then bread and spaghetti. Yuumm! That's a win in my book! There's parking in the back of the food establishment with self-pay parking. I can't say much about the servers themselves but everyone we interacted with were friendly and polite. read more

Here is a small update. The pasta was ok, but the sandwiches are a winner. I think it is like my sister said "you have to try the sauce". I think it is a mix of balsamic vinegar and oil dressing. Just a light vinegar flavor but wow, it makes the sandwich POP! The bread that it comes on is no laughing matter either. I ate the salami sandwich, it was very good! Tried the spaghetti with meat sauce and the lasagna and it as just "ok". Anyways, don't take my word for it. Maybe it is just my taste buds.... I think I need to try the SUPER sub sandwich next time! read more

I come here usually for their sandwiches which are are awesome, but since I usually eat sandwiches for lunch, I decided to to go with the La Pizza Rina Pizza! Yes I'm the type to usually put everything on it. First off this was a 16 inch pizza and this was HUGE, one and a half pizzas and I was done. It was yummy, I should've done it crispy because I like when the pepperoni is crispy, but the base (pizza sauce) had a good tang to it. The crust was nice and soft, not super thick! They don't skimp on the toppings, almost every part had something. I would order this again or try a different pizza. read more
