The waiter was fantastic. The food was very good. The old hostess has no personality and should not interact with the clientele. She verbally berated our group of 11 because we were enjoying their ambiance. Management tried to smooth things over but it ruined an otherwise delightful dinner.

One of the most enjoyable meals we've had in Hawaii. This will be a destination place when we return.

My husband surprised me with a 10-year anniversary dinner here last year when we came over to visit from Oahu. Wish I could give it 10 stars! Cocktails, appies and entrees were to die for. Lovely sitting outside and though the coqui frogs are invasive, I enjoyed their lovely spring song with the light rain. Can't wait to go back.

Great sushi- spicy tuna roll was outstanding. Service was fast and friendly. Zach, our server, was very good. Lava Cake with chocolate, coconut and almond ice cream was a hit. Casual attire which is always a plus. Definitely would go again.
