So it was that one witness to the commotion outside the newest Angelo Pietro restaurant in Kapahulu wanted to know what I thought of Pietro's in general. I told him about my only visit to the Kapiolani Pietro's two years ago. I can't wait to read all about it. I felt obligated to check it out, and it's a good thing I did because the menu has improved substantially. I respect the restaurant's staff for taking time to learn just what we want, and delivering.
Flavors are more intense, passionate, dramatic.
The soy sauce adds flavor without overpowering the dish. That goes double for pizzas built for one on a snappy, thin crackery crust. My problem now is with service. On weekends, long waits for food are not unusual. Managers stand around, unwilling to deal with frustrated guests.
