Food and service were great The dishes we ordered showed great attention to detail Prices on food and wine were very fair But the pace that we received our courses seemed rushed, like they wanted to get us out as fast as possible If not for that, perfect dining experience

Everything was delicious and service was outstanding. I've never had a cappuccino French onion soup like theirs, very light and creamy. And the mushroom pizza with truffle oil and the uni pasta were big hits! Tiramisu and Lavazza coffee was the perfect way to finish off the meal. Fantastic place. I recommend parking at Ala Moana and walking over.

The food was excellent, no doubt about it. The foil gras tart was delicious. My wife enjoyed her onion soup. Mains were good with clearly homemade pasta. Unfortunately, her main came out 15 minutes before mine. Then for dessert, I never got my cheese plate but her dessert came out immediately. When I called the waiter over to cancel my order, he said it will be right here and disappeared in a flash. When he brought it over a couple of minutes later, I said no thanks, my wife is done, and I don’t need her sitting at me for 15 minutes - the experience was already pretty poor. I did ask to see the manager (we don’t really have one was the reply). At that point I said you should at least help with this check… he said I don’t have authority to do that. At this point I said just bring me my check, but I’m not sure I would return to be honest. The check was brought and I was told the “cheese was taken off the check”, to which I obviously replied “of course it is, I didn’t get it, that’s not really a question”. On the way out they did hand me a gift certificate which was a good gesture. I still tipped my Uber driver cash, but I gave him the certificate as well.

Delicious. Lots of menu options, & specials. I would definitly recommend getting course after course. We did apps, a pasta course, a main course, then dessert. I loved the uni spaghetti and sea bass special. The desserts definitly shouldn't be missed: The mascarpone semifreddo with hawaiin honey was the hit of our table. I had never tried it before, and really loved it. Tiramisu was served with a frangelico foam that added an extra texture and flavor. Overall the portions are a little dainty, but the flavors are huge, and the dishes are all lovely... I left feeling satisfied instead of stuffed. I wish I could remember the name of our server because she was great too, definitely adding to our overall experience!

Good food overall. Server did great. Food mostly overpriced, need more food. I got 2 entrees to fill me up…Buffalo pizza and the rigatoni with side of veggies. Plus ate 2 piece of the bread they serve. Plus 1 of the 2 chocolate raviolis for desert. I’d say I do eat more on average than others who are also 5 foot 9 135lbs. The pizza was great tasting actually, but $24…wouldn't complain if it was around 18-20 max. The spicy sauce they give to put on it was amazing! But, Whole Foods made to order pizza is a way better value! 100 grams of rigatoni was what I was told they provide. If that is what I received, bump it up to 130 grams at minimum for the price. The side of veggies was 4 green beans and about 5 small pieces of squash and some arugula… very small amount. Can’t really complain though since they subbed that for the pancetta (I don’t eat pork). Ineould have been full without and satisfied food volume whose without the bread and desert. I would return but not frequently due to value.

Bernini exceeded expectations. Excellent service, nice informal ambience but still elegant, with white tablecloths. Good wine list and food was excellent. One of Honolulu’s best restaurants in my view. Their only disadvantage is not having outdoor dining space.
