Cafe Sistina

Cafe SistinaOne of my fav and voted one of O'ahu's top restaurants, Cafe Sistina's interior walls are adorned with the artistic replication of the Sistine Chapel, all hand drawn by the owner, Sergio Mitrotti. Opened in 1991, it serves Northern Italian cuisine and live entertainment during the weekend and special engagements. You can read more in the link below...

MICHELANGELO Buonarroti a promise to copy his work :))

Anyway, the place is full of feeling
and your photos too as always.

The menu looks great! I noticed they validate parking - do you think they would validate my plane ticket from Florida to Hawaii ;-)

I love dining in such gorgeous ambience but usually I'm put-off by the formality of dress code.Here I noticed that the diners are in casual attire.. 1 vote from me!
