Learn How We Inspect

Joining the ranks of the celebrity chef-helmed eateries dotting the Hawaiian Islands is L.A. favorite Osteria Mozza Lanai. Debuted at Four Seasons Resort Lanai in July 2024, the Nancy Silverton-led spot brings a classic taste of Italy to the island ...

Our Inspector's Highlights

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 the Lanai restaurant, try the branzino alla piastra with a fines herbes salad and grilled lemon or the grilled beef tagliata with arugula and aged aceto balsamico di Modena.

Things To Know

Silverton first made a name for herself as an innovative pastry chef at Wolfgang Puck’s signature Los Angeles restaurant Spago before co-founding the highly lauded La Brea Bakery in 1989.
The talented toque co-founded the Mozza Restaurant Group in 2006, bringing a trio of eateries focusing on traditional Italian cooking with contemporary presentations to the Los Angeles dining scene. Her restaurants can now be found in Los Cabos, London, Singapore and Riyadh.
Day-to-day operations at Osteria Mozza Lanai are led by Eli Anderson, a talented, Indonesia-bred chef who has worked in Los Angeles, New York, Italy and other culinary hotbeds.
