One of our favorite restaurants ever! We always have excellent service, and I’ve never eaten something that wasn’t delicious. Even the food for kids is scrumptious!

Yes I would definitely recommend this restaurant. I’ve been coming to Hilo every so often but this is the first time I’ve been here and loved the food and the cocktails were great. We’ll definitely be back!

Fish and chips were great. Great service. The lovely bunch of coconuts is a fantastic dessert. Very nice experience.

Delicious! Best meal we had on the Big Island 🌴Crab cake salad was excellent. Husband liked the pot pie and molten lava cake was great with the coffee ice cream.

Great location. We arrived at 6:53 for a seven o’clock sitting. The kid behind the front desk almost freaked out. We were just checking in and he said your early and will get the table ready, but it was the way he said and did it. Just strange.

Very disappointed. After a lovely meal 2 nights ago we reserved a table outside for sunset. We arrived on time and were seated 15 minutes later at the back of the restaurant with no view and it was extremely hot. Staff were not helpful or very apologetic. You have spoilt what would have been another lovely evening to end this part of our honeymoon in Hilo. Unfortunately we got up and left!
