Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Aiea

The tomahawk steak was delicious, probably the best deal of the night.  Elijah provided exceptional service and made sure we are well taken care of as we celebrated a very special birthday.

We choose our first time at Cino for my husband’s birthday celebration based on the shining write ups. He’s an Italian F & B guy, so when he said his Rigatoni Bolognese was “orgasmic”, this is high praise. I ordered the Crab Spaghetti (out of Branzino after the server sold it to me) and it was delicious. We will def come back for the Branzino. Constructive criticism: The team approach to service is an understood trend; however it would be great if staff would introduce themselves. In the beginning it was a bit confusing. We did enjoy the enthusiasm and cozy atmosphere. Several nearby parking options were convenient with a short walk.

Totally fantastic food and drinks. Imitated but not equaled. The service was unbelievable. Recommendations were spot on. Warmth was touching. Felt like you were coming home.

Merriman's Ward is definitely our first preferred spot for wino wine share get togethers. Food's fantastic and approachable and the corkage is still wino friendly compared with other places that have corkage charges set to discourage bringing special bottles to share with friends. We enjoyed a 3 hour commiseration over a bottle of Radio Silence! Servers were attentive but not intrusive--they let us do our wine share thing; very nice and appropriate wine glasses. All in all a place not to be missed. Thanks and mahalo again Merriman's Ward!!

Lovely setting, attentive service, excellent food! We always appreciate the basket of homemade breads, which today included luscious mini-scones and sweet/salty lavosh.
