Not too often I find a restaurant that I return to twice.  A few are Margotto Hawaii, Side Street Inn and the Plumeria at The Kahala.  Giovedi got me back because I was craving the Proscuitto with Giardiniera.  This is one of my favorite bites of 2025 and I already want to go back and order it again.  On this visit we tried the Onion Dip with Caviar.  Loved it but was not a big fan of the Shrimp Chips.  A nice thick cut Potato Chip would have been nice.  My wife loves the Green Salad and I like it too.  Enjoyed the Special Squid Ink Pasta with Clams.  It was a little dry and needed a bit more sauce but tasted good.  Not a fan of the crunchy things they put on top.  Really not necessary.  Reminded me of MW Restaurant where they always pile on things when it is not necessary.  Service was fantastic and I will be back!

I liked Giovedi from the time we walked in the door.  This is the kind of place that I wish we had more of in Honolulu.  Has kind of a hip vibe with cool outdoor terrace seating.  Staff was friendly and service was excellent.  We started with the Hokkaido Milk Rolls that were $11.  Served with a delicious Black Garlic Butter Spread.  Good but $11 for Rolls not a great deal.  The Green Salad was chilled, light and crisp.  Loved the dressing.  The star of the meal was the Prosciutto San Daniele.  Wow....I am craving this right now and want to go back and have it again.  When you take the Prosciutto with Shaved Parmesan and place it inside the Vietnamese Sesame Donuts and then add the Giardiniera Pickles you have one of my favorite bites of 2025.  Absolutely mind blowing delicious.  LOVED IT!  The Foie Gras Torchon was incredibly rich and bursting with flavor.  The Olive Oil Toast was perfect but wow...this was making us full before the main courses arrived.  I had read many reviews saying the portions were small here.  Not on this night.  We were very happy with the portion sizes.  My Wife loved the Capellini Granchio which is a very light Pasta dish with a big burst of lemon and toasted bread on top.  The Gnocchi Mabolognese was like no other Gnocchi I have ever eaten.  So light and fluffy.  Literally melts in your mouth.  Turns out they do not use potato for the Gnocchi.  Great dinner and will definitely be back soon!
