Great atmosphere, food, and friends. They forgot my drink but brought it over right away. Overall, we had a great time and plan to dine here again in a couple of months. (our new meeting place!) Lol!Parking: open, free parking.Kid-friendliness: I'm sure kids would like to eat here bc of their ono food! Even w/the smaller portions, maybe able to feed 2 little children. If not, order the regular portion and split in 2 for kids. Yum!

Came here for a sunday dinner and everything was delicious. My chicken paesano was excellent, and it was nice to have the option to have it half pasta/half vegetables.I'd give this place 5 stars if their prices were just a tad lower, I feel for a pasta dish like this, it should be in the high 20's, not the low 30's.Bread was very good and service was professional and efficient. If you've ever eaten at assaggios, it's very similar, but I think they actually do things better here.

I ordered the eggplant parmigiana and it was really delicious. I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. The Caesar salad wasn’t as tasty, but still pretty good. I’ll definitely return, the atmosphere is serene and the service is lovelyVegetarian options: Eggplant parmigiana is excellent

A review of Paesano Ristorante at Waimalu Shopping Center.We visited for lunch.This is a beautiful restaurant.The staff is well trained and they are dressed in very fancy clothes. The menu is very diverse. There are lots of appetizers, Salads, Entree, Desserts.I ordered a small portion of veal scallopini saltimbocca Romano. The portion was just write the presentation was to awesome and the taste was wonderful. My wife were just an appetizer she didn't have a big appetite it was eggplant rolltini. And that was also delicious.For dessert I had tiramisu, this looks beautiful and it tasted it met All my expectationsMy wife ordered for Mango Sorbet, this was also refreshing and delicious.We also ordered hot tea green tea.This place is a little expensive.But you get what you pay for.And this place is definitely high class.This is a place you'd come once in a while for special occasions.Mahalo, Hugs Wes n Wanda Anzai ♥️♥️♥️ - Mililani Hawaii, 1/2024Parking: Paesano is located at the white Waimalu shopping center.

Terrible food quality this isn't real Italian not even American Italian it straight up sucks. Sauce is watered down from a #10 can of sweet tomato sauce. Buca di Beppo is way better and that's being generous. don't know how this place stays in business? This place is a exact copy of Assaggios in fact they are related it’s the same viet family. Assaggio is rubbish as well junk watered down sauce. Too greedy is what they are and the prices reflect it. Way overpriced and underwhelming food.

It was busy and they seemed to be short one person. One of our group had ordered vegetables and she said that they came out cold instead of hot, but loved her main dish. But the staff they did have was very nice and knew their business. Overall the food was great, very tasty and met our expectations.

Enjoyed this restaurant. Good sized portions (had leftovers to take home). Friendly service.Parking: In an area with a market and shops, so there appeared to ample parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Able to move around restaurant fairly easily, but restroom might be a little difficult due to heavy door.

Attended a large gathering here and was not disappointed by the linguine chicken anchovy olio. I ordered a small plate and was pleasantly surprised at the generous amount of chicken; about 10 oz or so, all perfectly cooked with crispy skin and tender meat. Will definitely be back to try other dishes ?

The food didn't have that rich Italian flavor I was hoping for. the portions were good on the meat side but on the seafood pasta side I thought they could have added at least one more shrimp and scallop. I got 2 pieces of each. The string beans in my seafood pasta also was stringy and I was unable to swallow it. The bread was excellent.

Really disappointed. The chicken portabello pasta dish was tough to eat. The chicken was cut into small pieces and had a rubber texture. Did not eat the chicken. Sauce was bland. Very few thinly sliced small mushrooms. Not portabello.
