Great restaurant with quality food and service. Unfortunately our wait staff no less than four times had to return to our table to inform us that the drink, dish, or dessert we ordered was unavailable. Seemed odd they were short supplied of multiple menu items.

In Hawaii, I think it's not just the scenery, such as being near the ocean or being able to watch the sunset, but also the atmosphere and delicious food.

I recently visited for the first time for brunch, and it was such an energetic and lively spot! The atmosphere was inviting, with plenty of buzz to keep the energy up while still feeling comfortable. The food was absolutely delightful. I tried the Croquet madam and it was perfectly balanced with rich flavors. The crab cakes were equally impressive—crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside. One unique aspect of the experience was being able to play board games while waiting for our food. We chose Scrabble, which made the time fly by and added a fun, interactive twist to the meal. Overall, this place is a great choice for a delicious brunch with a side of entertainment. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu and enjoy the lively vibes!
