Visit Waikoloa: Pueo's Osteria

Rita Pizza - made with imported flour

Attempting to escape the cost of $50 pizzas from our resort's restaurant, I did a search on great restaurants in the area and found Pueo's Osteria.  Located in Waikoloa, Pueo's is a modern Italian restaurant specializing in made-in-house pastas and using locally sourced ingredients as well as high-quality ingredients imported directly from Italy.

On a Sunday, the restaurant was very busy with take out orders and diners - some perhaps purposely there for Lasagna Sundays! My daughter and I opted for pasta while my son had pizza.  The pasta was delicious and I easily finished it.  I recommend getting one of their house made breads to start. The mozzarella garlic bread was my favorite. 

Tagliatelle alla ragu Bolognese | aromatic meat sauce, veal, beef and pork 

Cannelloni | puna chicken, ricotta, spinach, sundried tomato, parmesan, pecorino, besciamella

Big Island sunset

We were seated outside with a perfect view of the sunset. Dinner was great in everyway; from our server to the food and company. Definitely recommend. 

On a side note, I noticed on this trip to the Big Island that all the restaurants we dined at charged a credit card fee which varied from 3-4%.
