Great place to visit for Italian. We make sure to go there every time we are on the island. Large portions and a great value. Excellent staff that is super friendly. A great hidden gem!

We visited the restaurant early on a Saturday night. This was our first visit and we were concerned when only one other couple was seated. When we left, the place was full and our meal provided the reason. The food was terrific. Two of us calamari steak parmigiana. One had veal Marsala. My wife ordered chicken saltimbocca from the menu...

I only recently heard of cavatelli (where have you been all my life), and this my first opportunity to try it. The pasta was fresh and delicious. I should have chosen a different sauce, the robust flavor of their meat sauce with italian sausage was a little overwhelming. Delicious, though. Very delicious. The other meals at our table were excellent...

The Pomodoro Italian Restaurant in Kalaheo is a small upstairs romantic restaurant with very excellent food. All of their veal dishes are exceptional and the portions are extremely generous.
We have had dinner there 5 or 6 times; and every time, the service, wait staff and owner have
treated us like special guests invited to their own home. Very few...

We had been to this restaurant a couple of years ago and had fond memories of it, and if anything, it was better than before.
I had the linguini with clams (like the reviewer before me who must have been there when we were), but mine was also with shrimp and calamari fritti. It was heavenly and such a large...

I always judge Italian places by their linguini with white clam sauce. Surprisingly, Pomodor had it on the menu. I asked how it was prepared and this is the one place that does not muck it up with cream. There was plenty of garlic, chopped clams, and about a dozen or so Manila clams. The only thing missing was crushed...

As a local I enjoy going out to dinner and pretending to be a visitor. Pomodoro is a special restaurant when you are looking for an intimate setting and excellent food. Over the years I confess to having same entree every time, shrimp scampi. Always delicious. My companions have ventured further afield and consistently report a fine Italian experience. The...

You wouldn't expect to find great tasting authentic Italian food in Hawaii but we did. The service was fantastic and our meal was delicious. I would recommend making reservations.
