The restaurant was not busy when we were there but the noise from a neighboring table was bothersome. Service was good and the food was average. It's worth a visit to decide for yourself. more

Went here after reading a book and hearing reviews about the double chocolate truffle cake. The food was fine - basic Italian. We were just waiting on that dessert. Well, it was fine. Nothing earth-shattering. Have had better dessert at Cheesecake Factory! more

Expectations were high as we entered. Masterpiece reproductions adorned the walls and Italian opera was playing as we were escorted to our table in the dimly lit restaurant, suggesting an elegance that really isn't there. Waiter was very friendly but overwhelmed, and he only attended our table once or twice for taking the order. Food was overpriced and bland, and... more

Visited Pescatore because of recommendations from the Tripadvisor site and would recommend to others. Good food and great Service. Expect to spend $100 if you order starters and wine. more

The chicken marsalla is unbelievable. This place beats them all. I have tried to duplicate the sauce at home and can't come close. It is not on the dinner menu but they will make it if you order it. Ask for extra marsalla sauce! They also have a great wine list!!! more

I know my way around Italian food from Little Italy to San Francisco, and Pescatore's was right up there. Our dining experience was divine - we had a wonderful, fresh salad followed by Alfredo Linguini that was heavenly. I am perplexed by some of the reviews. more

WOW, was this bad. Three of us went in for dinner and NONE of us were satisfied. It started with the salad. How is it possible to get unripe tomatoes on the Big Island? The Italian dressing had no flavor at all. My father ordered the special which was linguine with clams. It was completely without flavor. My husband ordered... more
