New York Pizza at Antonio’s “Real pizza made by real Italians” is one of the slogans at Antonio’s Pizza on Waialae Avenue (opposite Kahala Mall). If you’ve not tried the thin crust award-winning pizza, then stop by this month, where a second pizza is 50 percent off with the purchase of a regular 14-inch pie.
“We offer the best pizza on the island,” say owners Joe and Anthony. Antonio’s is a casual eatery where customers order at the counter and can eat in café style, no nonsense atmosphere where service is minimal - but the food is good.
With a range of sandwiches - and probably the best meatball sandwich in Honolulu - prices reflect the lack of pretension.
That means great quality food that’s affordable.
