Verbano Ristorante Italiano

Verbano’s in Kaimuki - Fettuccini Alfredo and Meatball linguini were ok so about three stars. The woman that took my order and rang up my takeout order was very nice and polite. However, the Rigatoni arrabiata and Pesto linguini were not so tasty. Rigatoni seemed under cooked - dry and hard. The House bread was kind of hard too. Based on food quality will probably not go there again.

My fiancé and I come here for the great food and the awesome customer service whenever we have the hankering for Italian fusion food. Such a cozy atmosphere and we have such a fabulous time!

Went multiple times since 2011, very good Italian food. As of 2019-05, on Saturdays the new owner confirmed they were following WEEKDAY hours. Went there on Saturday June 1st at 1:30pm and it was opened. He changed the hours and did not have time to update signs, so the restaurant was empty. I took a picture of hours outside but it was still showing the old sign. Paid $0.60 for 1 hour parking, not bad. Most importantly, food was still great.

My chicken fettuccine was good, tasted like it should be. Expect smaller portions as they kept the prices lower. Just keep asking for more bread. Service is great and very friendly. This is an old area so don't expect it to be fancy.

I was nostalgic for their Carbenara from my college days, but I loved the amaretto cream even more.
