Noe Italian

I am giving my 5 stars to Sherri of Noe, at the Four Seasons, Ko'Olina. She was an incredible representation of how f&b service should be. My partner and I felt so cared for and special on our baby moon.

I always and forever have such low expectations for bougie resort restaurants. I always feel they are overhyped, overpriced, and service is always underwhelming. I actually didn't want to even go to any of the Four Seasons restaurants despite us staying here. But due to convenience and me being very pregnant we didn't have the energy to venture back out and Ko'Olina is a bit farther from some of our Yelp Bookmarked spots. So we walked up to Noe without a reservation to just attempt to get in. Surprisingly, it was only a 20 min wait. A lovely night as well as the night before was a non stop dreary monsoon. So tonight's breezy and beautiful evening was perfect for baby daddy and myself.

Everyone from the entrance until we left was so sweet and kind. Making sure to make eye contact and say hello and show such beautiful aloha spirit.

Sherri - above and beyond. So sweet, so knowledgeable, and continuously checked in to ensure our first beverages were full, our bellies were happy and just get to know each party.

I noted that everyone that was being served by her, all commented on how amazing she was - one couple even asked her hours and tables working for a future date they were coming back for. She's incredible and I hope the managers see how amazing she is. This woman deserves a raise!!!!! She totally turned my perception around of resort restaurants and I'd come back just for her service and kindness.

We got the special of the evening stuffed pasta, bolognese, honey truffle ricotta with freshly made focaccia bread (so yum), baby daddy got a bikini blonde, and we were so stuffed we had to pass on dessert - but Sherri of course - went the extra mile and brought us a congratulations on the new baby special treat on the house. She brought us a s'more dessert with a congrats chocolate on it. We can't thank her enough for being so great! We will come back, just because of her!!!

Ambiance was okay- they seated us next to the lobby and it felt like we were sitting in the entrance rather than actually in the restaurant.

Some of the food was delicious and then others in our party got sick so hit or miss.

Had a celebratory dinner with my husband last week and had such a nice time! The space is beautiful and the seating formations are also great -- tables of two are seated at sofas, so you can sit side-by-side.

I can't remember every dish we ordered but the three I recall were all excellent! We got the ahi tuna carpaccio, the crab pasta, and the stuffed pasta that feeds two. I think we might have gotten one other app. Maybe the squid? Not usually a fan of tuna but the carpaccio was really well balanced and had some nice flavors. Crab pasta was excellent. Nice and light because it's not a cheese based pasta, and lots of chunks of crab! The stuffed pasta we loved and it really is a huge portion. It's not cheap at ~$75, but truly it could feed a small family so I think it ends up being pretty reasonable. If you share it with two people you'll certainly have leftovers.

We got a complimentary slice of cake at the end which I thought was a nice touch. I wasn't a fan (too sweet) but my husband liked it.

Would definitely recommend id you're looking for a nice dinner out!

Located in the Four Seasons resort, we decided to venture outside of Aulani & stumbled across Noe. It's a short walk from the beach and easy to find. Our server was awesome and recommended really great dishes. We started off with the burrata appetizer and the ahi carpaccio. Both were very good. Then, for the entrees we got the truffle tagliatelle pasta and the veal Milanese. The kitchen was kind enough to split our entrees in half so that my husband and I could try both. It was the perfect amount for each person. The winner was the veal Milanese. Highly recommend, and our server told us to squeeze the lemon all over arugula which added a nice zest to the entree. For dessert, we tried the tiramisu. Everything was nothing short of amazing and we are glad we found a restaurant in close proximity of Aulani that we could visit again!

Service here is definitely top notch. You'll be assigned a main server, a co-server and a busser/food runner for your table. It's really like a dance, watching them do their thing on the floor. Not to mention, the ambiance can't be beat!

We couldn't decide on what we wanted to eat, so we opted for the tasting menu. A little bit of everything to try. And to end the night, we literally got one of every single dessert on the menu. We each took a scoop and passed the dessert to the left, ending up with a bite of each dessert. The most memorable dining experience all around!

This place could deserve a Michelin star if the Michelin system is in Hawaii. Everything was just perfect. Great outdoor atmosphere plus the comfort of the indoor with nice shades. The service was on spot. They never fail to ignore your needs. But most of all, the food was *chefs kiss!
Everything was so delicious and carefully crafted. True delicacy. Love the Asian fusion into the traditional Italian cuisine.
I took my toddler and he had an amazing experience too. First they gave him the premium coloring set with multi page coloring book. The kid menu offered variety. The water cup was so cute and sturdy. We just loved everything about it and can't wait to come back and try more food next time.
Only complaint was that the cocktail was a little too strong. I ended up not able to finish my cocktail and couldn't enjoy different varieties. But some people may say that's a good thing.
Will definitely return for more yummy Italian!

Excellent food and service. There is validated valet parking which makes getting to the restaurant so much easier. Noe is located inside the four seasons. We arrived early to our reservation and walked around the pool area. I got the pescato del giorno- mahi mahi which was prepared perfectly. The skin was crispy and the inside the flaky served with a flavorful sauce (Baked Asparagus, Broccoli Purée, Green Olive, Dried Tomato, Celery Tapenade). We also got the rigatoni bolognese which was cooked Al dente with a rich sauce. Great experience and will definitely be coming back

During our stay at the Four Seasons, we dined here at Noe for our last dinner. Upon entering you are immersed in a chic, contemporary ambiance intertwined with a tropical island feel. The soft lighting and open air seating also makes for a great date night setting.

We started with the burrata which consisted of a chilled tomato consommé and local tomatoes from Ho Farms. The soft and creamy texture of the burrata and fresh tomatoes were the perfect combo to get our palates warmed up.

The Noe Signature Tagliatelle was one of my fave entrees featuring seasonal truffles and mushrooms (and parmigiano reggiano). The sauce was light yet creamy and went exceptionally well with the mild earthiness of the truffle and umami taste from the mushrooms. The noodles were maybe cooked slightly Al Dente - which was how I like it anyway!

Perhaps I lied, my fave dish was probably the filet mignon with foie gras. This dish was cooked perfectly to medium rare and served with a delectable balsamic-pepper sauce. The buttery and rich consistency of the foie gras complemented the savory and tender filet beneath it.

We also ordered the lobster pasta which was also very delicious. This dish featured a mildly thick spicy Pomodoro sauce, wailua basil, and calabrian chili. From what we heard, it was a customer fave. As good as this was, I would place the tagliatelle and filet ahead of this one - but of course it's all preference and everything was so good.

Our sommelier Josh was awesome and helped us pair our wines with our dishes. He definitely helped make this experience an awesome one.

If you're looking for a true-to-form Italian spot, this should be up there on your list. The prices are as you'd expect and the service was exceptional. Will definitely be frequent flyers here.

Ambiance --5 star
Romantic, quiet

Service --5 star, friendly, attentive

Food --3 star
The filet mignon $69
The lobster spaghetti $69
For that price point the dish should be special
My friend had the filet and said he's had better
I had the lobster spaghetti and it was too salty with the salt being the stand out flavor.
It tasted better with the fresh tomatoes--but still for that price point I expect my tastebuds to dance--they didn't.

The best dish of the night was the House smoked carpaccio.
The smoky beef with the touch of Gorgonzola mousse, tangy sweet mustard and date. The complexity of the flavors--so good.

The dessert--the Lilikoi Semifreddo --I didn't care
for. The complimentary birthday dessert--the s'mores chocolate cake--the raw marshmallow at the top--try giving it a quick torching/roasting to give it that yummy toasted Marshmallow flavor.

Noe was an amazing restaurant with fabulous service. Ambience was spectacular and food was stellar. I would highly recommend for special occasion. Shoutout to our server Brandon for going above and beyond!
