Osteria Mozza Lanai

Osteria Mozza Lanai features Silverton favorites like Caesar accompanied by a crostini topped with egg, leeks and anchovies, or the ricotta and egg raviolo with browned butter sauce, alongside new dishes that showcase Hawaii’s bounty. Look out for a maltagliati (square-like pasta) served with a ragu of Lanai venison.Even though the menu is strictly Italian, many of the ingredients are sourced closer to home. Salads feature fresh lettuces from Sensei Farms and the housemade pastas are crafted with local eggs.Don’t skip the mozzarella bar. If you can’t decide which housemade ball of mozz to dig into, go for Nancy’s Favorite Trio to sample the toque’s top picks.While the cocktail menu certainly has an Italian flair, you won’t find the usual offerings on here. Instead of the typical Aperol spritz, you’ll find the St-Germain-based Hugo spritz, and rather than a Negroni, you’ll find a bitter pompelmo made with tequila, Contratto bitters and grapefruit.For mains at theLanairestaurant, try the branzinoalla piastrawith a fines herbes salad and grilled lemon or the grilled beef tagliata with arugula and aged aceto balsamico di Modena.
