Chef Mark Ellman has his concepts straight: keep everything fresh, quantities adequate, use organic ingredients as much as possible and use no hydrogenated oils or preservatives.

The food is so delicious! I'd eat here everyday if I could. The Sea Turtles that comes up to rest at the sea side are just so awesome experience not many restaurant would offer the experience. The sail, the sky the magnificent panorama. Love love this restaurant. ☆☆☆☆☆

One of my favorite places to go! Outstanding seared ahi bruschetta! Oceanside, almost in the ocean on hi tide days, with beautiful sunsets and Honu playing in the tides. Everyone there has plenty of aloha spirit.
