   Arancino at the Kahala Hotel boasts a stunning ambiance and exceptional service that truly elevate the dining experience. The staff is attentive and welcoming, making you feel right at home. However, the food fell short; it was bland and lacked the creativity and bold flavors one would expect from an Italian restaurant. Overall, if you want great wine and good customer satisfaction go , but food is poor

   I’ve dined here a few times because I love the food, service, and ambiance. This time, we came with our family friends to celebrate two birthdays. I made an online reservation in advance for six guests. When we arrived (we were the first ones there as the restaurant had just opened), we asked the waiter if we could sit outside. He checked but informed us that they couldn’t accommodate our request and seated us at a table inside instead. Since the entire outdoor seating area was empty, we asked the waiter if there was a specific reason we couldn’t sit outside or if it required an advance request. Unfortunately, he wasn’t sure. Was it because we had two toddlers? Or were the outdoor tables already reserved by others? It wasn’t clear. The food and service were excellent, as always, but the seating situation left us feeling a bit disappointed. If additional requests are required for outdoor seating, it would be helpful to have that noted on the reservation page to avoid any confusion in the future.

   If you have 4 people order four different pastas ask the server for advice on witch to get. Get one at a time and share they are great and this restaurant is now one of our must go to when in Hawaii

   I made a reservation a month in advance, but I was given a table in the innermost corner, and it was so cold because of the air conditioning that I couldn't eat the food properly. I asked if it was possible to control the temperature, but was told it wasn't possible, so I ate while shivering in the cold.

   Arancino is our favorite restaurant to celebrate our Anniversary every year #23. Their staff treats us like we come every week even though it's once or twice a year. Our server Paulo is very attentive and helped me pick out my new favorite dish. Maria is the most caring GM we have ever experienced in a restaurant setting for many years. Looking forward to sharing this restaurant with our family.

   We love this place! It’s an Italian restaurant with a touch of elegance. We came here to celebrate our 1st year wedding anniversary. We order the calamari, carbonara, pizza and fillet mignon. Everything was delicious. The plates are a bit pricey but well worth it. It’s next to the beautiful resort Kahala. The service was top notch as well. We highly recommend if you’re going to celebrate something special.

    ハネムーン最終日のディナーに相応しいレストランでした。主人共にアランチーノを選んで本当に良かったと話しています。アニバーサリーとしてのデザートもありがとうございました。ハワイを訪れた際にはまた利用させていただきます。本日はご馳走様でした。
