Part of a chain of Japanese-owned Italian restaurants, this airy, glass-fronted casual eatery two blocks away from Ala Moana Shopping Center is popular with the local crowd for its mix-and-match approach to spaghetti and pizza. Toppers include Asian favorites like corn, enoki mushrooms, squid and pickled mustard cabbage, as well as the usual roster of Italian flavor combos. Salads likewise come with a choice of interesting Japanese dressings; a signature dish is the shredded raw potato salad. Another location is at 885 Kapahulu Avenue. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A Local Secret |
550 Paiea Street Honolulu, HI 96819 United States +1 808 833 5588 |
Once a small, rustic, one-story building dwarfed by large warehouses in an industrial neighborhood, Big Kahuna Pizzas was hidden in the middle of a concrete jungle. A lane-widening project led to the demolition of their original home in the summer of 2007. It is now located in the Airport Trade Center (which is easier to find) and better than ever thanks to an expanded menu. In addition to a wide variety of both traditional and unique pizza toppings and sauces, they offer two absolutely huge sandwiches. Each one stands about 4-5 inches tall and is 8-9" wide. Granted, it's mostly a thick circular bun, but it is extremely filling. Pizzas on the other hand tend to run a little small (for the price) but the flavors help redeem that slight downside. All in all Da Big Kahuna is not your usual pizza place. -Rex Davidson Review © 2007, Wcities |
