Assaggio Bistro Italian - Honolulu

Large overall, except that the garnels were dirty and, while they offer to take them back, they first said that how garnelen are served. later they apologised for the person who cleans the garnels, not to do a real job. I wish they had at least taken a drink in an apological series.

Eating is always delicious and at the point, and the portions are always generous! the personal is from the moment they immerse themselves and draw attention during their culinary experience.

I got the Chicken Assagio, which is my preferred entree. In the past, the chicken was cooked to a nice crisp on the outside and flavorful. This time, it was barely cooked as the pieces were very soft rather than firm with a slight crisp on the outer edges. I donʻt like it that soft, almost as if on the raw side. We dined two days after Christmas and the place was quite busy. While our server was pleasant and compliant of our requests, after a while even my 95 yr. old mother noticed that it was like we were being rushed out of the place. It didnʻt feel like a leisure dinner, and we were celebrating a birthday. Our leftover meals were quickly wrapped up and the tableware was immediately cleared when I asked to keep the bread as I was still eating. The check arrived and shortly after we were out in just about an hour. We could have gone to Zippyʻs for that matter.

Not the best pasta or sauces. Italian flavors were not slow cooked to maximum the richness. Amateur level at best. Not a repeat reservation.

Our waiter was attentive and patient, allowing us time to chat and peruse the menu. The food was delicious.
