Il LupinoGreat outdoor dining experienceBrought a mainland guest great food service and ambience.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMOdd SeatingWent to Il Lupino for Mothers Day Brunch. Good Eggs Benedict. Only issue was seating. The reastaurant was nearly empty at 1015 AM, yet despite my Open Table reservation, we were seated int the back right next to the kitchen. When I asked the hostest if we could move to a table away from the Kitchen, she said she'd have to check and see what was available (?). There was only one other party in the restaurant and about 20 empty tables!!! We were seated at a nicer table up front - end of issue.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMNever had a more professionalNever had a more professional and charming waiter than Patrck. Awesome service, thank you.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMItalian in Hawaii ? YES !OK, so you're in Waikiki and thinking, "Italian in Hawaii, would we want to eat Italian food in the tropics?" Our answer in this case is YES! The setting with a view of the Royal Hawaiian gardens if very nice, we ate al fresco and it was perfect. The food was REALLY delicious; there were five of us foodies and we all liked our dinners. A criticism, if you could call it that, is the Chessecake Factory-sized helpings. In our case both the appetizer and entre could have been split between two people.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMLove, Love, Love the food!Terrific Pasta & great service and ambiance.

the Happy Hour specials from our table. The last time we were there in 2012 we had a
great time with the delicious Happy Hour or "Pau Hana" as we say in Hawaiian, specials.
