An Italian‑Brazilian pizzeria at the Waikīkī entrance, known for long‑fermented dough and toppings like catupiry and calabresa alongside Italian classics. Spotlighted by Hawaii News Now and covered by Honolulu Magazine, it pairs pizzas with a lively wine and music program.

You absolutely, must try the Gourmet Pizza Experience! I honestly wish every pizza place was like this. You get half size slices of each flavor they offer, and they are all amazing! I think my favorites by far were the ham and pineapple, margherita and the dessert pizza with banana and cinnamon. The servers were extremely attentive, and I loved how they had live music! A pizza experience not quite like any other, and so delicious! One of my favorite parts about my first trip to Hawaii.

Located off Ala Moana boulevard right next to the Red Lobster and in the same location as the old Outback Steakhouse, San Paolo Pizzeria offers a blend of Italian and Brazilian flavors that highlight their unique Italian-Brazilian pizza fusion. They focus on tradition and pay a homage to their rich history and immigration journey of Italian immigrants who found a new home in Brazil. We decided to try the Gourmet pizza experience which is AYCE pizza as they bring every pizza they have on the menu on rotation including dessert pizzas for you to try. It comes with smaller slices you can try many more pizzas from their menu. As long as your token is green, they'll keep being you pizza after pizza. Lines can get pretty long so I highly recommend making reservations. And even with reservations, we still waited another 30 minutes after we initially checked in so be prepared to wait. There is no parking available on premise but if you're lucky you can find street parking along the ilikai hotel and marina.

is this a joke?? $24 for the world’s smallest, driest, grocery store meatballs in the world??? these cost only $4 less than a full pizza? this is actually ROBBERY. i’ve never left a review so fast in my life. I actually had to call to ensure that this is what I ordered… don’t worry, all they could offer me was “sorry about that”. each meatball is the size of a quarter, mind you. and they cost $6 each. and these are the worst meatballs ive ever had. you could use these as kindling to start a fire they’re so dry. and the “cheese”? hard as a rock. this feels illegal

Huge shout out to Carolyn who helped make our all you can eat dining experience spectacular! The friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, and delicious options really sealed the deal! As long as you are open to trying new things I highly recommend giving this place a try.

We did the gourmet pizza option where they come around with different pizzas including dessert pizza. Neat experience. The pizza both savory and the sweet were so good. The white chocolate banana was the best dessert pizza.

At this place, even the water tastes good! While parking can be a bit challenging due to its location on a main avenue, the experience inside more than makes up for it. The restaurant itself is beautifully designed, stylish, and welcoming—and its location right on Ala Moana Blvd makes it central and very accessible. We were served by Osvaldo, whose positive energy and attentiveness truly elevated our visit. Thank you, Osvaldo, for your exceptional service! We chose the Neapolitan Chicken with Catupiry and the Neapolitan Mignon Supreme pizzas; the first, in particular, was an outstanding choice with incredible flavor. Without a doubt, I would gladly return to San Paolo Pizza Hawaii for another great meal. Highly recommended!

Delicious pizza options. Interesting fusion between Brazilian and Italian flavors. They had a pizza buffet of all you can eat pizzas for $45. We got a mocktail which was basically lime passion fruit and condensed milk, really good 😊

Busy night but spots open at the bar. As a party if one I bellied up and the two bartenders took great care of me. Caesar salad rocked with the fried pancetta. Mushroom pizza with pesto hit the spot. Excellent crust and ample mushrooms made all the difference. Yes, Brazil 🇧🇷does have a pizza culture since there’s a sea of Italians living there. Give it a go! You will not be disappointed.

ALWAYS LOVE GOING TO THIS PLACE. First of all, reservation is so smooth and they really adhere to your special requests (birthday, special occasion). We are always greeted warmly and we always get the table we prefer. It's baby and kid friendly, you can request to be sorted away from the stage. Food is AMAZING. It's nice inside, interior is inviting. Clean. Perfect place for dinner dates with family and friends.

I did not expect this place to be so good. Pizza is probably the last thing I think of ordering on the island, but after a few days, my girls and I were craving something that felt familiar. What we got was anything but ordinary. I found this spot on Yelp (clearly for a reason) and loved that it was within easy walking distance of our hotel. They offer a Brazilian-style, all-you-can-eat pizza experience, which sounded fun, but we weren't super hungry that night so we opted for the à la carte menu instead. Each pizza we tried was fresh and flavorful. The crust was perfect and toppings were generous. Truly gourmet! The Spaghetti with Parmesan Fonduta & Proscuitto Di Parma was amazing! We should've ordered two! The service was great and the overall vibe made it a great relaxed dinner spot after a long day. If you're on the island and craving pizza, don't overthink it. GO!

Fun AYCE pizza experience. The servers come around like a Brazilian steakhouse but with trays of pizza instead. Service was slow at first since the tables who were in front of us kept taking all the slices, and then it ramped up. The pizza that stood out to me the most was the Brie & Honey; so so good. The others were fine. My lychee cocktail was very good. Inside the ambiance was modern and lively. They had a live band playing when we went which was a really nice touch. The band even played the birthday song for my bf since it was his birthday.

Around the corner from Red Lobster on Ala Moana Blvd. The restaurant is clean with a trendy ambiance. Went for dinner and there was live music. Regular table seating, no booths. There's a bar area. The menu is a QR code. You can order a whole pizza from the menu or you can order the all you can eat. The all you can eat is a little pricey but I thought it was worth it. The pizzas were creative and really good. There was also dessert pizza. They give you a coin to put on your table to know you have the all you can eat option. The servers will bring the pizza to you. They will just keep offering you pizza until you had enough. The service is quick and attentive. Would recommend for the experience.

What an amazing night at San Paolo Pizzeria! We went for ladies night and had the chance to enjoy their all-you-can-eat menu with 27 different pizzas (yes, even dessert pizzas!) and every single slice was incredible. The crust was perfectly light and crispy, making it way too easy to keep saying, "just one more slice." The entire experience was a vibe: live music, a warm and welcoming staff who kept the pizzas flowing nonstop, and the chance to meet the owners and head chef, which made it all feel so personal. Their hospitality felt truly Brazilian -- fun, lively, and full of heart. It's not just about the food (though the pizzas are unforgettable) it's the atmosphere, the service, and the Waikīkī energy that makes this place so special. Whether you're here for date night, ladies night, or just a fun evening with friends, you won't leave hungry or disappointed. Mahalo to the San Paolo team for making our night so memorable. The service was awesome! We'll definitely be back!

One of the best pizzas you can get in Honolulu. We ordered the spicy pepperoni (either calacria or arrabiata) and a plate of fries. The pizza was delicious, and reminded us of the better pizzas back home in Chicago. Can't say much about service or ambiance, as we did takeout - however, from the looks of things, space is extremely tight and there is a long line even for picking food up for takeout, so that speaks to quality.

Surprisingly GREAT pizza!!! We were craving pizza and finally decided to give this place a try. Parking was easy--validated at the Ilikai Marina for just $5. We walked in without reservations and were seated within five minutes. Nice touch: there are hooks under the tables so you can hang your bag close by. Our server, I believe her name was Julie, greeted us promptly with a carafe of water and explained how to use the QR codes for the menu. We both ordered drinks--my caipirinha was refreshing and sweet without being overpowering, while my boyfriend really enjoyed his Cabernet Sauvignon. But of course, the main highlight here is the pizza. We went with a half-and-half: one side honey & brie, the other calabresa with catupiry. The honey & brie was absolutely delicious--the creamy brie paired perfectly with the touch of honey. The calabresa with catupiry was just as impressive, loaded with smoky sausage, thinly sliced onions, and a generous layer of creamy catupiry that balanced everything beautifully. The crust was spot-on: thin on the bottom, crispy on the edges, yet soft and airy inside. Flavor, texture, and balance--it all came together wonderfully. Service was excellent too. Yes, the pizzas are on the pricier side, but totally worth splurging on. Plus, kama'āina get 15% off, so don't forget to ask!

First time here at San Paolo and we loved it. Service was excellent and our server was very attentive to us with helping us choose our food. The star of the experience, to, me, was the honey and brie pizza. I was inlove!! We also had the Chicken with Catupiry and the Quattro Formaggi. All very very good. The ambiance was very impressive; live music gave it a great energy with our dinner. We were celebrating our anniversary and this dinner was perfect for us. 10/10. We will be coming back and recommend to others.

Pizza Frenzy . Park at the lagoon if you can, it's just easier. Happy hour specials given from 5-6:30 pm. . Their pizza experience is a carb lover's dream! First, rounds of their 22 listed "savory" pizzas are conveniently brought to your table with a different selection to choose from every time. I could barely finish 8...but the chosen ones were delicious. Fan favs = Honey & Brie, Calabresas And of course, there's always room for dessert! Following the savory are the sweet dessert pizzas - visuals were giving "pastry bread" but surprisingly tasted much better than expected! There's also a very tasty port wine from Portugal available - I highly recommend. . Mahalo to our thoughtful and very helpful waitress. Thank you also to the food servers who repeatedly and patiently explained the various pizzas to us and for not judging the pile of unwanted crusts on my plate - I reject the unnecessary carb. lol. . cheers (:

Pizza galore!!! Everything was delicious San Paulo's AYCE concept reminded me of Texas De Brazil. They walk around with different flavors of pizza & offer you a slice. Every single employee was very friendly. Service was amazing. Our waitress was so attentive! The live music was a nice tough of the evening. There were lots of pizzas to choose from! I didn't even think I would have like the honey one lol My favorite of the night was the bbq chicken pizza and the banana & white chocolate pie. The only negative thing I could say is I wish everytime they'd bring out dessert slices, that it would be freshly made or even stayed warm somehow. Each one that they've brought to our table was leftovers & they were pretty tough to get a bite. I mean it is pizza dough & it does harden with time. We started with 1 tiny slice of strawberry's & chocolate and the 2nd was hazelnut. Both were toooo tough to even get a bite. Tried a 3rd, which was pistachio; hard as a rock. The only freshly made dessert was the banana & white chocolate. Now that was delicious, I should've ordered a whole pie of it lol

We visited San Paolo Pizzeria to celebrate our 9-year wedding anniversary and had a mostly wonderful evening. I made our reservation through Open Table and appreciated the option to leave a note about both our celebration and our severe food allergies (shrimp and peanuts). It was reassuring that both the host and our server confirmed the allergies upon arrival--huge points for attention to detail and guest safety. We went for the full experience and started with drinks--my husband enjoyed his beer served in a perfectly chilled mug, and I had The Guava Breeze, which was absolutely delicious and refreshing. We were also given each a glass of complimentary prosecco to celebrate our anniversary which a very nice surprise. As for the food, the pizza was a bit of a mixed bag. The end crust was phenomenal--crispy, well-cooked, and flavorful. However, the main part of the crust under the toppings was disappointingly soggy and underbaked. That said, the pizzas that were topped with Brazilian cheese were our favorites--the cheese was creamy absolutely delicious. The ambiance was a highlight: the decor is stunning, thoughtfully designed, and even the restrooms are beautiful. It truly feels like a special night out. What really knocked a star off our experience, though, was the issue with the live music. I had confirmed through their Instagram that live music would be part of the evening--there were multiple posts featuring a new performer and scheduled dates. This was one of the main reasons we chose San Paolo. Unfortunately, there was no live music, and our server seemed unaware it had even been planned. It was disappointing, especially since there had been no update or cancellation posted to their social media. Overall, San Paolo Pizzeria is a beautiful spot with thoughtful service and some great menu highlights. I'd return for the drinks and the ambiance, but I'd double-check the food consistency and live entertainment next time. Oh almost forgot to mention, they offer a kamaina discount so don't forget to ask! And they validate parking.

Sao Paolo Pizza in Waikiki totally surprised me in the best way. The space is gorgeous with a modern airy vibe and plenty of room to actually relax. We started with the roasted eggplant fonduta and it was such a creative and unique appetizer. For the main event, we tried the Brazilian pizza with caputliya cheese and wow. The crust is perfect. It stands firm, holds all the toppings, and still has that great chew. One of the best crusts I've had in Waikiki. We missed the live music since it ends at 9 PM, but it just gives us a reason to come back. Highly recommend.

The pizza was interesting. The crust was perhaps a bit chewy. The Brazilian fusion toppings were very generous. Service was very fast and very friendly. Even though there are a lot of tables, they were not so close together that it felt super crowded. The live Brazilian music was a real plus! It seems when you look at the menu that the "all you can eat" option is the way to go. However, you don't get to choose your pizza. They just come around and offer you different pizzas. Unless you're planning on being there for hours, the chances that the pizza you were eying on the menu will come around are pretty small.

This was a joke right? I was being punked? From a water glass that was smeared with sausage oil and smelled like it, to a drink that was filled with granulated sugar crystals, a short poured beer (6-7oz), to a $62 pizza that was room temp, half tasting like Costco hotdogs the other half dripping with oil. It gets better, their website promises "cultural ambiance", "an immersive atmosphere that transports guests to the heart of Brazil and Italy". How? Not a single beer from Brazil. The live performance of pop / Hawaiian music from the 1970 and 1980's doesn't help. Nor do the fake plastic plants, boring uniforms of the staff and total lack of energy. With exception to the friendly hostess, NONE of the service was up to par. Being told that the food runner can't take a drink order is fine. Being told "I'll get your server" and your server never showing up is not. Neither is a server who only spends seconds with guests, taking only one diner's drink order and running off, not noticing that we placed untouched drinks and glasses on the side to ask if everything is OK and rushing away before we can say it isn't. The only other positive, the pizza CRUST is good. A total waste of potential. Not recommended.

I had finally had the chance to try with San Paolo Pizzeria! I came with my co-workers it was delicious. It's very spacious on the inside and clean! What we ordered ~ **BURRATA SALAD (9/10) ~ Whatever they seasoned this with, it was delicious. The cheese went very with the greens. There was a nice zesty and bitterness to the salad! It goes really well with the pizza. **Pepperoni Pizza (10/10) ~ This was honestly my favorite. Loved the touch of onion to get some sweetness on the pizza. The dough/crust was also delicious. It was soft and fluffy, it had a nice bite to it! I highly recommend this! **Calabresa with catupiry (9/10) ~ I probably wasn't familiar with the taste, but the cheese was very interesting! It gave the pizza a different type of cheesey texture. Loved the onions because it gave a nice sweetness and again the crust is chefs kiss. I love my pizzas like this. I honestly can't explain it well, but you should definitely try it. **Chocolate Mouse (10/10) ~ Just get it. If you like a good balance of a little sweet and bitter, end it with this! Honestly it was sooo good. Our table wanted to order another, but we knew we shouldn't LOL. Overall, Lovely space, great pizza, and good staff! I'll totally come back again :)

For my second time back to San Paulo, I met up with two friends on a Monday evening, the place was pretty full, but the hostess seated us right away with no wait at all. The waiter took our drink order, then helped us make some decisions about food. He walked away and came right back with our drinks. I think someone in the back must've started making our drinks as soon as our waiter entered them into his tablet. Same with the pizza, those came out pretty fast too. I ordered the Funghi personal pizza and it was really good with a thin bubbly airy crust loaded with mushrooms, leeks, pesto, and burrata cheese. My friends split a half and half Hawaiian and prosciutto pizza. It looked amazing as well and both friends enjoyed their pizzas. I highly recommend this spot if you are in the area and wanting to try really good Brazilian style pizza! Our waiter was professional, experienced, knowledgeable and helpful. I had the same experience the previous time I dined at San Paulo and both times I appreciated the great service.

There was nothing not to love about San Paolo Pizzeria. We got seated immediately on a Saturday night with extremely quick service and live music playing. When we ordered the All You Can Eat gourmet experience we had gotten to try pizza right away! Each server was excellent and polite. We started with the Chicken Catupiry and Honey and Brie. My jaw dropped from how delicious both were. Best pizza I have ever had so far! I usually don't enjoy multiple cheeses - but I could not stop eating, each bite was better than the last. There was not a single slice I did not like. I had tried about 6 savory and 4 of the small desserts. The Chicken Catupiry became our favorite and our server also asked us what slices we would like to be served as well. They also have a disc on the table to flip whether you want to "take a break" or keep requesting service. The pizza was filling and left us more than satisfied- without feeling bloated or sick. My favorite of the desserts was the pistachio as well. The quality of ingredients is apparent and worth every penny. Finding great pizza can be hard to do on island but San Paolo is now our go to spot!

Delicioso! Late post Yelp BFF got into the YEE and I was lucky enough to join as a plus one. We ordered the burrata salad, half and half pizza (honey & brie and calabresa with catupiry), and chocolate mousse. The burrata salad was so simply dressed and fresh. The pizzas arrived hot from the oven. I've never had Brazilian pizza, so it was an interesting twist on pizza. The crust was not too doughy and not too thin. The toppings were what truly made it Brazilian. I think both pizzas went well together. I really liked the chocolate mousse. It was the perfect way to end the meal. Overall, San Paolo Pizzeria was a good experience. The service was great and food was excellent. The restaurant is on the pricier side. A whole pizza ranges between $35-50, so I don't think I will be back anytime soon. Definitely a fun spot to try out! Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next!

Stop, drop everything and get to this Pizza place!!!! What a little gem! Being local, venturing into Waikiki on a Friday night is not always on my fun list to do but 5 of us wanted to finally try San Paolo and we are all so glad we did!!! Let's break it down: Parking: Super easy at the Ilikai hotel and free with validation (I think for up to 4 hours so you have plenty of time to enjoy the night!) Atmosphere: Such a great interior. Really relaxing, can be great for date night (casual dress), family night, big get together- whatever works here. They have a small area where they have live music - and no... it's not loud. Sometimes live music is just too loud but here-perfect! Staff: I love me some good staff! They can make the experience SO much better. Our waitress was MAILE and she was the sweetest!!! Absolutley loved her. Attentive, (we ordered alot of drinks) and was always there when we needed her. ok.. now the FOOD: I embarked on their $40 all-you-can-eat adventure with my fearless crew, and every one of us dove in headfirst--sampling 18 unique pizza varieties in just 2 hours. Yes, you read that right: 18 distinct pies, each served hot, fresh, and bursting with top-notch ingredients faster than you can say "more cheese, please!" and let's talk dough--the secret hero of this place. This isn't your run-of-the-mill crust; it's been meticulously fermented, meaning those diligent yeast cells are breaking down sugars and starches like tiny culinary scientists. In fact, proper fermentation can reduce the dough's filling factor by up to 33%, leaving you with extra room for more epic pizza discoveries without the dreaded post-pizza slump. We ate SO much but honestly didn't feel that huge bloat and yuckiness. PERFECT NIGHT! I highly recommend and we will for sure be back.

I'm surprised we got a table on a Thursday night, in Waikīkī. The Brazilian twist on pizza is very interesting. I imagined a lot of meat on my pie and I was not disappointed. I was really enjoying my dinner with friends and how everyone was saying how good the food was; therefore, not noticing the details of the food. I mean it was good. Every bite followed quickly with another until you find out you ate too much. The staff: excellent. Food service: quick and tasty. The setting: clean, new. And the bathroom was nice and clean. That's something rare.

We were staying in the hotel next to this so stopped in for some pizza. Like everything on the main strip in Waikiki, it was quite expensive (almost $50 per pie). The pizza was great. We got the proscuitto one that came with arugula on top which added a great fresh element. The service was a bit slow, but it was quite busy when we went. There was live music which was a nice touch to the restaurant.

I did the all you can eat pizza, it really wasn't worth $50.. I went with my family of 8 the bill was $400... all we got was literally shitty pizzas , they don't have anything else to offer on their AYCE pizza menu. There's really no love in that! They have "27" selections, except over half of those are all different kinds of cheese pizzas LOL! they have dessert pizza which looks & sounds great! But the dough is weird .. doesn't really go well with the toppings ithink we also got super bad service bc we went on a Tuesday night (it was slow???) so the service was absolutely horrible.. we were servers one slice of pizza each and left alone for about 15 minutes or so LOL no salad included no nothing really it was absolutely not worth it. The dining area is modern and cute but for the price it reallly is not recommended by me.. service was boo My favorite pizza was the bbq chicken. I did not even finish the "filet mignon" pizza They have a 2 cheese, 3cheese, 5cheese, and 10 cheese pizzas oh my The crust is really good tho, the pizza dough itself is really good! They also give you olive oil, and parm & pep. Cool but they should put more love into serving the community

DO THE AYCE PIZZA EXPERIENCE!!! DON'T ASK! Just do it lol For $39.90 (6-8:30pm), you can have UNLIMITED PIZZA. I had the funnest time ever! I wouldn't say that the pizza was the best pizza I've ever had. But for the quantity and pure fun of it, this deal is DEFINITELY worth. There were over 20 savory pizzas to try and 5 dessert pizzas. The pizzas were all served fresh and were generally all delicious. Of the pizzas, there were a few standouts -- the pizza of the month (New York Truffle), Calabresa with Catipury (brazilian cream cheese), Mignon Supreme, and Quattro Formaggi (Italian Four Cheese). We also loved the Pistachio Sweet Pizza and Chocolate Strawberry. I truly believe the standouts will be based on your pizza preferences as all the pizzas are yummy. Our service was wonderful! Adriana was attentive and kind and explained everything throughly. The pizzas were brought out SO FAST in the beginning. I could barely keep up haha Adriana also came by to ask which pizzas we were specifically looking for which was super helpful I loved the use of the green or red sign (just like Brazilian BBQ). You leave the sign on green if you want the servers to come by with pizza or flip it over to red when you're full. Such a simple concept but oh so fun! Wish we had a restaurant like this back in California! Overall, a truly wonderful time! All pizza lovers will make core memories here (and who isn't a pizza lover!) THANK YOU SAN PAOLO PIZZERIA

First time tonight to San Paulo, great experience, great pizza. Either one of us generally light eaters, did the ala carte menu. There was no pressure to go with either option. Had an appetizer (coxinha), half & half pizza (Calabresa + shrimp), a couple of drinks. Left full, though with enough room for the pistachio pizza dessert. And leftovers for the next day. The wine/cocktail & drink list was inclusive of a wide variety, just enough to not be overwhelming. There was live music which was also good, entertaining but not too loud to carry out a conversation. Our server, Julie, was exceptional, courteous, checked in on us periodically at just the appropriate intervals, explaining the menu patiently. I highly recommend Sao Paulo for really great Brazilian style pizza, even better ambiance! Will definitely head there again to try their other selections.

Tried San Paolo Pizzeria and really liked it. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and came out hot, and you can tell the ingredients are good quality. The crust was done just right and not too heavy. It's a chill spot with a nice vibe, perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. Service was friendly and the food didn't take too long. Would definitely come back. Drinks were good too!

Best pizza in the world -- right here in Hawaii! I've had pizza all over the globe, but nothing comes close to the experience at São Paolo Pizza in Honolulu. Amazing vibe, fantastic service, and the friendliest staff. 100% worth it -- no regrets!

Last minute, we decided to do take out from somewhere during our staycation at Prince Waikiki. We realized this was a new restaurant we haven't tried yet, so we decided to put in an order. We got just a regular cheese pizza, and a half/half of the Brie & Honey pizza, and the funghi pizza. We also got a Caesar Salad. CAESAR SALAD: this was yummy, but the dressing didnt have the tang that a caesar salad dressing would normally have.. still good though! BRIE & HONEY PIZZA: this was my favorite :) i LOVE brie, and while i wished there was more honey, the flavors still matched beautifully! FUNGHI PIZZA: this was also good! It was not the typical funghi pizza, but it also included sautéed leeks and pesto which made it super flavorful :) I can't say much on service as I put in an order online. However, I had to change the pick up time, and it took awhile of me calling for someone to pick up :( Overall though, we will definitely be back to try more pizzas and definitely some of those dessert pizzas!

The pizza was delicious. The crust was fluffy yet airy. I like how the pizza is perfectly baked and its not burnt. The toppings were simple and fresh. Their pizzas are quite pricey. One large pie is around $50.

Discover San Paolo, a Brazilian pizzeria in the heart of Waikiki, perfect for an affordable night out! This chill place, you can feel free to dress up or just come as you are in this relaxed Italian inspired pizzeria Their artisanal pizzas start with naturally long fermented dough using Italian "00" flour, topped with options like creamy Catupiry cheese. Try the Calabresa with Brazilian smoked sausage or mix it up with our half-and-half topping option, so everyone in the family gets a slice they love. The service is quick and I love that they explained all the pizzas and recommend some amazing dishes. We ordered. DEEP FRIED CREAMY BRIE CHEESE Crispy Crust and Creamy Brie Cheese served with Thin Pizza Slices Baked with Parmesan and Honey, Drizzled with Balsamic Glaze, Garnished with Almond Slices and Chives. ( show stopping beautiful, perfect to start a date) PROSCIUTTO DI PARMA Lettuce Mix, Cherry Tomatoes, Parmesan Shavings, Prosciutto di Parma (delicate cured pork) with Honey Mustard Dressing. PIZZA OF THE MONTH: PUMPKIN GOAT CHEESE Long Fermentation dough, Pumpkin purèe, Zucchinni, Pesto and caramelized onions featuring local goat cheese from Sweet land farms, North Shore Half/Half FUNGHI and Prosciutto Di Parma Long Fermentation Dough, House-made Pesto Sauce, Fior de Latte, Mushroom Mix, Finished with White Wine-Sautéed Leeks and Parmesan.

I feel like this may have been the best piece of pizza I have ever had. Service was fantastic and the price was reasonable.

So glad I finally got to try this spot. I'm a sucker for pizza and was interested in trying something new. The pizza was delicious! The crust has a chewier texture - somewhat similar to sourdough crust pizzas. The toppings were flavorful without being overpowering. And the CHEESE. Everything just went so well together. You can also do half-half pizzas, even if they have different sauces. You can make reservations online but we came on a weekday night and it wasn't too busy. Service was friendly. They have validated self parking at the Ilikai Marina parking. If you're coming into Waikiki on Ala moana blvd, you'll see the shop on the right side. Go just past it and turn right by red lobster. You'll see the entrance to the parking lot on the right.

Really good pizza. Live music was a great touch. The all you can eat option is awesome if you have a big appetite.

Ever since the elite event with San Paolo's, their pizza has been on my mind so I invited my family to try this place out for dinner. Caesar salad: One of the best Caesar salad I have tried. The croutons and bacon were in crumbs but it worked so well. The texture and flavor were really good. Coxinha: A very simple appetizer but it was packed with flavor. The chicken was delicious and breading was crunchy but moist on the inside. Half Calabresa with Catupiry: My favorite pizza. The smoked Brazilian sausages were soft and delicious. The catupiry added more rich flavor to the pizza. I love the abundant of onions and sausages on the pizza. Half Portuguese: The pizza was good but I do prefer the calabresa over this. The flavors were good and the combo of the ham, peas, boiled eggs, and onions were interesting but tasty. Amazing pizza place. Their pizza crust was light and airy and wasn't burnt. Really appreciate that. Service was great. Definitely will be returning again.

I would first of like to thank the San Pablo pizzeria employees for such an amazing experience. I mean, it truly was something that my whole family enjoyed. Now for my review. We got there as soon as they opened at a little after 5 PM. We were seated immediately and we're given the option to scan the menu via QR code. After reviewing the different types of pizzas and having more than one, we all wanted to try, we decided to go with the all you can eat pizza option. The all you can eat doesn't start until 530 so we got their chicken and cheese appetizer and the polenta fries to try. I wasn't a fan of the fried chicken and cheese, but my husband really liked it. My kids on the other hand love the polenta fries by 5:30. The pizza started to come out the way it works. Is you're given a little disc which notifies the servers that they can come to your table and offer you pizza or you don't want them to come to your table and offer pizza. We had our disc on green the entire time because we wanted to try as many pizzas as we could fill in our stomachs. Our server was pretty good about notifying us which pizzas were on its way in case there was one we were looking for. I am glad we got all you can eat meal because the pizzas I thought I would like weren't actually the ones I ended up liking the most my favorite was the prosciutto di Parma. Second best was mignon supreme because of the onions. I thought I would like the pizzas with catupiry cheese but I wasn't a fan just because of how thick the cheese was. The dessert pizzas were the highlight for my children because they were all chocolatey and sweet. We had a fun time and now I can say that the next time we go back, we definitely have our favorite pizza so we'll probably order those specifically. But I think the all-you-can-eat pizza option is a great starter to figure out which pizza you actually like. Service was amazing. There's one waitress that was so bubbly and just a pleasure to be around. She was so respectful of my little kids always asking if they wanted to try the pizza even though as a parent, I was constantly saying no need because they probably won't like it. But she always went out of her way to make sure they had the option to try each one of the pizzas. The lady who was making the pizza dough in the back was also very animated because she noticed my kids were constantly watching her. Throw the pizzas in the air. And she pretty much made their entire dinner so much better. Parking was very easy in the garage off Horbon lane above the restaurant. There is a decent amount of parking. You may have to go up a few floors, but there are a couple of stalls that I found were exceptionally big if you were lucky to grab one. It would easily fit a Yukon at 6'7". See pictures for big parking stalls. We were there for one hour and 46 minutes and our parking was a total of five dollars with validation.

This place is right across the street from me and I've been meaning to go for a while after hearing great reviews from friends. The vibe was energetic and there was live music with a beautiful singer and violinist. The caipirinhas were perfection and boozy forward as they should be. We shared a pizza and it was my first time having Brazilian sausage but I need to find a way to source this on island because it was packed with flavor. The catupiry is their cheese and it just melts in your mouth - also a must have. Our server was very attentive and kind. I will definitely return to try some of the other pizzas on the menu and their burata which really stood out to me. For a relatively new restaurant, they are off to an amazing start!

Went here to eat after an appointment. The hostess was very rude! I asked to be put on the wait list and she told me it was better if I just went somewhere else bc they were busy. But because my husband wanted to try this place, I figure just put us on the list anyway. We asked to sit at the bar while we wait and she said no, it was busy. Looked inside and it didn't look busy at all. Well shortly after, there were people who came after us, which they asked the same question and she allowed them to go in. I almost feel like she was either racist or didn't know what she was doing. Not sure if because we didn't look like tourist that she decided we weren't to her standards. So never tried the food, never went in. And wasted my time in finding a parking only to be dismissed the way she did us. Not even sure how this place got 4 star rating bc that is definitely not the service I got when we went there.

Went here the other evening for Brazilian pizza! It was pretty good! Ordered tons of their most popular pizzas Calebresa paulistana and another pizza of arugula and cranberries. You can order half and half of pizza large size. Everything was delish! They also have yummy drinks here too! If you're kamaaina you get 15% off. They also validate for parking here.

Great food, service, and drinks every time. The deep fried creamy Brie is so good! The mignon supreme is also worth the visit

A pizza lover's dream! San Paolo is a cute, quaint, and cozy spot in Waikiki that delivers a unique and flavorful experience. You can order à la carte, but the real treat is their Pizza Experience -- for $39, you get unlimited pizza! The only catch is that the entire party has to participate. The pizza flavors are creative and delicious. My favorite was the brie and honey -- an unexpected combo that was sweet, smooth, and bursting with flavor. Definitely a standout! The service was polite and friendly, though a bit on the slow side. With a seating time limit, the wait between pizzas felt a little long at times. Still, I'd come back -- especially if you're craving a wide variety of unique pizzas, including dessert pizza options. A fun spot for adventurous pizza lovers.

Hmmm, I think this may be my fave pizza joint around town. The choices were plentiful and the marrying of flavors were on point. I highly recommend the AYCE option. For only $40, you're able to try the various pizza's, and trust me, it's worth it. Indulge in the crust with your first few pizza's, then leave room thereafter for other styles. They will put a plate in the middle for you to dispose of uneaten crusts or toppings. The dough, tho! Oh my word, THE BEST! The slices are served about half of a slice of pizza which is the perfect amount to try most, if not, all of the different types to choose from. I walked out feeling satisfied, not full, because of the process they use to remove the gluten. Perfecto! Our waitress, Wylie, was just amazing and informative, and the Servers were on top of it, ready to serve our palates. Great ambiance and lighting. Even the ladies restroom welcomes you into an Eden. Live music with just the right vibe. Family friendly too! I Uber'd so my understanding is there is parking in the structure with validation. Amazing job, San Paolo Pizzeria! I'm definitely returning with more people soon!

Great atmosphere (had live music), great service, and really good Brazilian pizza and food. Not cheap, but really good. Only four stars because so pricey - but the ingredients are quality for sure, just super expensive even so. Note: parking validation is for 30 minutes ($5) only, we had to pay the rest (@$5/ half hour). Try to park near harbor instead.

The hostes at main door to get a table WAS AWESOME. It's 1/2/2026 645pm. We messed up our reservation and she fixed it got us in thank you. Now for everything else pasta was the smallest plate I have ever seen the plate it came on was HUGE..LAME..blah . Pizza looked ok we did not have any. Lots of people weird menue. Everyone looked confused and waiting for food. I just would not recommend it plenty of other places to go. Our server came by twice once to explain food and to drop off water no follow up anything he put my plate on the spot next to me empty not even in front of me. It's the simple things missing helpful server.food.its too loud .he never checked back with us sad we come to Wiki often and have several rentals. This is NOT RECOMENDED TO EAT.

The best pizzeria in Hawaii! Oh my God, Cesar's service was excellent, He explained the menu to us and offered us to try the AYCE, which was the best thing we did. All the pizzas were amazing, especially the chicken with catupiry, which was my favorite. On my next visit to Hawaii, I will definitely stop by San Paolo again!

Amazing food! The honey and brie pizza was awesome as well as the margherita and calabrese pizza. Service was excellent and the ambiance wonderful. So good that we went twice in our vacation in Waikīkī. If we ever come back to Hawaii, we will stop back in.

Amazing pizza! We were craving pizza while walking around Waikiki and stumbled across this place on Yelp. Reservations were easy and seating was great. We ordered a LG half and half pizza. Pizza was great! Crust was amazing, toppings and sauce were delicious. Prices are pretty wild, but to be expected in the heart of Waikiki. Live music and atmosphere was good too. Would definitely go back next time we're in the island
