LaCiccia Honolulu

At this intimate S King Street room, the kitchen leans into Japanese-influenced twists on Italian classics, sending out plates like mentaiko and natto pastas alongside buttery hamachi sashimi, sautéed umami mushrooms, and clams. Meals open with warm, crispy artisan bread paired with sweet balsamic vinegar and close with traditional Italian espresso. Diners frequently highlight the friendly presence of chef Mitchell, though service consistency varies among staff.
