Update 6/25/22: Still the best pizza on Oahu!!! The Choke Knots are so incredibly good. We ordered the Knots, Whole Pepperoni and a chopped Salad. All three are prepared perfectly and tasty. The staff is always so friendly and helpful. Large selection of Italian wines, olive oil, anchovies and many other delicacies. If you live here or just visiting you must try the food at this food lovers destination!
This place has the best pizza on Oahu, period. I have eaten pizza all over the country, NYC (at least 80 places), Chicago, LA, Seattle, Miami. This incredible establishment has met or exceeded any pizza I have eaten anywhere. If you like pizza you will love this place. I cannot wait to try all their pies and hoagies. This has changed the pizza in Hawaii forever.
We keep going back to get a slice and eat them in car parked outside.
Meatballs and sauce were incredible.
Chicken Scarpiello was an amazing take and bake dish. Huge amount of food, perfectly prepared. Delicious.
The NYC pepperoni is so good, crust is so light and crunchy. The white vegetable pizza is another excellent slice. The deep dish pepperoni is a great crust and tasty sauce!
The take and bake Manicotti was an amazing meal. All fresh ingredients. 5 thumbs up.
The baked ziti with sausage ragu and 4 or 5 cheeses was a feast. We ate on it for 3 days.
They are selling their loaves of bread the hoagie rolls are served on. This makes the best garlic bread and fresh italian bread. If you go and they have bread out, buy 2 and freeze what you have left over! So ono!
If and when they start making garlic knots with their pizza dough I will be in heaven!
And now they have the garlic knots!
I was lucky to be in the pizzeria while Guy Hagi was filming Cheap Eats. Amazing place, if you love pizza and italian food you will love this place!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Had an incredible slice today! Veggie with added pepperoni. They cooked the pepperoni a little bit before adding to my slice. They have some of the best deli meats and cheeses on Oahu, bar none. Nice wine selection also. Staff is so friendly,...
Read moreBest pizza I had on island! As a pizza lover, I have high standards when it comes to this classic Italian dish, and this restaurant surpassed my expectations. The menu was diverse, with a wide selection of toppings and crust options. I opted for a classic Margherita pizza, which is always a good way to judge the quality of a pizza joint. I was immediately impressed by its appearance.
Now, onto the taste! The first bite was absolutely divine. The crust was thin and crispy, just the way I like it, with a slight chewiness that added to the overall texture. The tomato sauce was rich and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess. The mozzarella cheese was melted to perfection, creating a gooey and creamy layer on top. The pizza had a generous amount of fresh basil leaves, which added a refreshing and aromatic element to each bite. Every ingredient worked together harmoniously, creating a symphony of flavors in my mouth. It was evident that the pizza was made with high-quality ingredients and great attention to detail. Aside from the Margherita pizza, The menu also has deli subs that are ono! I like the Italian sub the best.
Overall, I highly recommend this Italian local place. Forget the snobby Yelp Elites they are pretentious fakes who know nothing about good food and many are paid fakes that get kickbacks such as free food, etc. I don’t trust any elites or read their...
Read moreI initially thought this place was an actual CASH N CARRY that by the way sold delicious pizza?! I had this pizza at work a couple of months ago and it left an ONO memory and hadn’t made a visit until now (Sunday). I ordered pizzas by the slice: 1. Mushroom veggie! 2. Pepperoni with peppers slice 3. A pepperoni square. DAMMIT! There’s a reason this very left an INDELIBLE memory on my tastes buds! Their pizza is just amazing! The pepperoni they use makes the most beautiful suppers with oily crispy edges and their dough leaves you cravinggncthe crust it’s a NEW YORK SLICE on Oahu! I’d like to say these guys are competing with the Best of Oahu. In my opinion that can’t be true. Ili’ili C&C is setting b the standard for the BEST PIZZA in all of Hawaii! This is a simple BRICK & MORTAR that for their price could charge more but would take the local customers from coming but could charge less and would undermine their potential customers. They have a simple concept: make simply delicious mind blowing pizza, touch the heart of locals one pie at a time, change the Hawaiian perspective of what local pizza should taste and be like. It really is the best Pizza pies on Oahu.
You will never go wrong with anything you order here. ESPECIALLY their Pepperoni pies.
Next time I’m...
