Great restaurant near Volcano National Park. They specialize in italian cuisine and have a wood fired oven for pizzas. The menu has some selections that change day to day and from lunch to dinner, so you won't always know what's available, but that's also a...More

We request reservations. We must hold tables for those that have reservations arriving in the next 20 minutes. People without reservations are seated in order of arrival and the opening of tables. If a table leaves before we expect-they don't have dessert, eat fast, etc.-...More
