Italian $$ Cute vibe, all the waiters were of different ethnicities with little flag pins with what languages they spoke! Excellent spaghetti and meatballs. (Visited December 2014) https://www.arancino.com/ 🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝 9/10

Japanese $ Long line! Was a 20minute wait, but worth it. Freshly made udon noodles, for a very cheap price. Also tried the salmon onigiri and inari, good stuff. (Visited November 2014) 🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜 9/10

Italian $$ Ordered the meatballs dish, didn’t realise it’d just be one giant meatball! Still tasted pretty good. Tried the ginger shot as it was recommended, but was oh so terrible. (Visited November 2014) https://illupino.com/ 🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝 7/10

American $$ Good view of the beach, but very average food. Croissant french toast was overly sweet. https://www.hulagrillwaikiki.com/ 🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐 5/10

Mexican $$ Flavoursome Mexican food with a beautiful rooftop view. Only drawbacks are they have small portion sizes and quite pricey. Worth a visit though! (Visited November 2014) https://www.buhocantina.com/ 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮 7/10

Australian $$ Hadn’t heard of this Aussie gem until I came here! Famous for their ricotta pancakes which were great. Pasta and pizza were decent but not amazing. (Visited November 2014) https://www.billshawaii.com/en/waikiki 🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞 7/10

Japanese $$$ Excellent dinnertainment teppanyaki. Pricey but worth it! Chef did the ‘shrimp in the pocket’ trick, and juggled a bowl of rice! Great fun, tasty stuff too. (Visited November 2014) https://www.tanakaoftokyo.com/ 🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤🍤 9/10

Brunch $$ Popular place! Large line out front. Had the Hawaiian Loco Moco; strange to have rice in brunch, but I like it! Essentially gravy and spam, I am not complaining. (Visited November 2014) 🍳🍳🍳🍳🍳🍳🍳🍳 8/10

Italian $$ Located in the Ala Moana Centre in Honolulu, this is a tasty family friendly Italian place with great pasta! Would come back for their spaghetti and meatballs. They also give you crayons to doodle on butcher paper while you wait, keeping your inner child happy too. (Visited November 2014) https://www.macaronigrill.com/ 🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝 9/10

Cafe $$ May have partly been the jetlag, but tasted amazing! Had the chicken pesto sandwich. Buttery avocado, crispy bread, tender chicken, pesto sauce. What more do you need in life really. (Visited November 2014) https://www.islandvintagecoffee.com/ 🥪🥪🥪🥪🥪🥪🥪🥪 8/10
