We waited weeks to get a reservation at Arancino at The Kahala on a weekend and the only time available was 5:00 PM. This place is booked weeks in advance and I can see why. The food and service here is exceptional. We eat out often and most times our conclusion is that we should have stayed home and cooked. Thats not the case here. I found myself telling my Wife "this is why you go out to a restaurant" after one bite of the Carbonara Pasta with shaved Truffles. Enjoyed every dish starting with the Caprese Salad. Super fresh local tomatoes with Burrata. Just wish they would have added a little Balsamic. The Arancino con Fegato e Tartufo was beautiful and delicious. Risotto was cooked perfectly but there was not much Foie Gras in that little ball. The Sauce di Vongole was perfecto. Large meaty Clams in a delicious broth. I could have eaten five orders of this. As for the pastas here, they were all perfect. The Carbonara with Truffles shined and I am already making reservations to return and order this again. I also could not stop taking bites of my Daughters Spaghetti di Ricci di Mare with Uni and a white wine tomato sauce. So delicious. The Tagliatelle ai Frutti di Mare was a bit too lemony but really good and perfectly cooked. Would have liked a little different sauce to make this dish really pop. Our friend who ordered the Tagliatelle alla Bolognese said it was delicious and devoured it all. This was an exceptional dinner with great service and food. Could honestly say this is now one of my faves in Honolulu.
