At his new Alakea Street location, Bruno Iezzi offers what has become his signature sandwiches: a tender roasted pork sandwich, a roasted turkey sandwich made with meat from a whole turkey he roasts daily, and a sandwich filled with fresh bufala mozzarella, grape tomatoes and mushrooms sauteed in rosemary-infused olive oil. It was the latter that stopped us mid-chew, and prompted a member of our lunch crew to admit, rather sheepishly, that the sandwich was so good it made her weepy. A sandwich! We're as baffled as you are. But not by our response to the food, but rather by Iezzi’s ability to make simple food do that to me. By simple, I mean food made from just a few good ingredients. There’s nothing here that boasts four kinds of meat, three kinds of cheese and dressing dripping from its ends. Iezzi doesn’t do excess.

- Paid Lot and Street Parking Difficult. There is plenty of parking at Ali‘i Place (1099 Alakea St., between King and Hotel streets), and it won’t cost more than lunch. Otherwise, there are plenty of corporate lots around, but parking in them can cost as much as $8 per hour.
