Our waiter Kevin was so nice, gave great information about each dish (and gave me unbiased opinions on two dishes I was between so I could make a decision on what to choose), and was attentive! The food was delicious as well - one of the best meals on the island. Definitely recommend the Panko & Sesame Crusted Ahi!

Outstanding food and service. We got the crispy pork belly with brussels sprouts, and it was insanely good. Then my husband got the pork tacos and I got the beef rice bowl. Both were so, so good. I also got a mocktail, which was delicious. Our server was Gerard, and he was really attentive and had a great personality. We will definitely come back here if and when we come back to the island!

Exceptional food, beautiful presentation. One misunderstanding in order. We were charged for a side that we did not intentionally order. Guest was asked if he wanted a dish and he thought it came with his entree but it did not.

Went on New Year’s Day for lunch. They were behind on setting the tables. After waiting a little while - once we were seated, the service and food were very good.
