Excellent food and warm hospitality are two things that Il Lupino Trattoria & Wine Bar promises its guests. Found on the street level of Royal Hawaiian Center, the eatery serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, providing customers with ample opportunities to satisfy their Italian cuisine cravings.

While lunch offers light fare — think salads and paninis — and dinner welcomes pizza, pasta and meat-centric dishes like Veal Chop ($55), Filet Mignon ($50) and Lamb Chop ($42), Il Lupino’s breakfast deserves equal amounts of the spotlight.

Among Il Lupino’s array of breakfast options are omelets with a side of roasted potatoes.

On the fruity side of things, there’s an açaí bowl ($18) with fresh berries, Kauai’s Anahola Granola, bananas and local honey.

Meanwhile, the Buttermilk Pancakes ($15) are a classic brekky that will surely prompt a good day. It comes with two pancakes that are topped with bananas, seasonal berries, whipped cream and a choice of quality syrup.
