Nordstrom Ebar Artisan Coffee

Passed on the espresso because the beans and setup didn’t look very good, and got a green smoothie instead which was average at best. Lots of seating outside, not so much inside, & seems to be a caffeine pit stop for mothers w/ strollers. Lots of mixed reviews but what do you expect from a clothing brands attempt at a cafe…? Servers are good & do their best 👍🏼

Mediocre coffee. This is by no means "specialty coffee". Paid for specialty though. Tasted like Starbucks, burnt milk foam.

We've ALWAYS received excellent service at Ruscello's, and today's visit was no exception. We sat outside for lunch, there was a nice soft breeze, had a bottle of wine (half off on Weds!) and enjoyed the food: salads and French dip - yum! What a great way to enjoy a relaxing afternoon!

Sat outside with a beautiful, direct view of the ocean. Ordered a chicken and gnocchi dish. Never had gnocchi before and was expecting something less dumpling-like and more pasta-like. The chicken and pesto in the dish were perfect. When our waitperson asked because I had left most of the gnocchi on my plate, I explained that it was simply unexpected, not that I was complaining. He notified his supervisor who came to check, and I again said it was not a complaint. He offered to substitute something else, but I was already full and looking forward to dessert. They removed the charge from the bill instead without me asking them to do so. Hostess and waitperson were professional, friendly, and efficient. Pricing is quite reasonable considering that this is tourist central within walking distance of Waikiki beaches. Happy to return another time.

I❤️the salmon Niçoise salad! It's my favorite with capers marinated olives, tomatoa, green beans and fingerling potatoes. Today my husband and I tried the Nordy margarita. It's really good! They make it the right way!

Ruscello always has delicious food well prepared. Our server today was Courtney and she went above and beyond to take excellent care of us. She should be commended. She was very friendly and helpful and attentive. We will definitely be back.

This my favorite restaurant for lunch .My 3 sisters and I ate here today and they all enjoyed their salads very much. They told me it was the best salad they had ever eaten and they definitely want to return. I was so happy they enjoyed eating here as much as I do. Our server was very pleasant and friendly and had such a joyful disposition. Excellent food and service!!!! Highly recommend this restaurant!

Everything was fantastic! We had a great table outside for lunch, which was shady so it was perfect. The food was great and came out very quickly. Risa, our server was wonderful and attentive and gave us the perfect amount of space for our talking and catching up! Dessert was great too! Will definitely be back very soon

Ruscello is one of our favorite restaurants to eat at. We come here often. Consistency is one of the reasons; however today is the first time ever we were so disappointed with our meal. I ordered the chicken Parmesan. Sauce was just not good no flavor. Chicken was really greasy and not crisp at all. My husbands dish also was lacking in flavor and was downing in capers. Too many capers.

My salmon salad was good but my friend's burger seemed a bit dry. The service was remarkable! Our server was Andrew. He was knowledgeable and even showed us photos of the specials. Friendly and efficient. Great job! I've had him before and he's always so friendly and cheerful. He should be recognized for providing great service at Ruscello.

Usually great service, well paced delivery of courses but must have been just an off night. Hadn't even taken a bite of appetizers when our meals arrived, and our drinks didn't arrive until half way through our meal. Just seemed disorganized and maybe it was the time of evening - we will think twice about going again on a Sunday an hour and a half before last reservation...seemed like staff was ready for their shift to end.

We had early dinner reservations, 430 pm. Everything was quick! From being seated to our entrees being served. The lobster bisque is a must. It's delicious! We also had the mushroom ravioli and shrimp pasta. Both dishes were good. Our server was very pleasant and efficient.

Highly organised and professional service. There is a lovely friendly ambience, staff are attentive and happy in their work which flows on to the clientele.This is a relaxed and happy place. Congratulations to all involved in the design and operation.

Risa, our server, was outstanding as usual. Always friendly, professional and efficient, she made certain that everything went smoothly. The food was excellent and the view of the ocean enhanced the ambiance.

I put in a reservation for 130 and when I arrived they said that they only had outside which was horrible due to the tropical storm weather that was upon us. They said if I didn't want outside I would have to wait another 30 minutes which didn't seem right when we saw inside seats available. I visit this restaurant often and will ensure I ask for inside next time. Otherwise everything else was great just really hard dealing with the wind on a day like this.
