If you hate garlic breath, do not go to Aloha Luigi's on Keawe Street in Hilo!! Don't eat Luigi's caesar salad! Don't even breathe in the funky. brightly colored, and most likely crowded little restaurant because you will breathe in garlic fumes!!
But...
If you love garlic, you have to go to Aloha Luigi's. My all-time favorite is his Caesar Salad, reeking of garlic and yummy flavors. I had a small Caesar salad, a bowl of tomato Florentine soup with orzo, and two small slices of homemade bread. All for $6.95. I am a terrific soup maker but Luigi is giving me the rub. The soup was light and yet full of flavors...tomatoes, beans, basil, fluffy pasta..complex and over the top on the yummimeter!! Although bread is my enemy...the small slices of homemade bread because my public enemy #1. Chewy, yet soft and pillowy in the center. I had a cream of Shiitake mushroom soup at Luigi's which was also a killer. So I must say that he is my favorite soup maker.
If this description tempts you, go to Aloha Luigi's but don't forget to bring some gum or breath mints if you are still working and have to meet some clients. Garlic haters...stay out and make room for us garlic lovers!!
