One of the best fine dining experience. Nice ambience. Food is exceptional and delicious. The uni pasta was one of the best we have ever tasted. The grilled octopus was perfectly cooked...tender and tasty. Our server was attentive. Overall we had a memorable experience and will definitely return.” - Tristan V.


Dining at Pesca proved to be a pleasant experience. The service was outstanding, the staff very friendly, and the food was delightful. The complaints which were voiced before I dined at Pesca always emphasized that it was much too pricy. I found it to be comparable to other fine dining restaurants in Honolulu and definitely recommend it to those wanting to experience a fine dining evening.” - Thomas
