    Everything was exceptional. The staff was very cordial, and they all pitched in equally to ensure our experience was wonderful. The food was spectacular. We had the ribeye, the seafood curry, the macadamia nut crested mahi-mahi and dessert. We were all more than pleased with our meal. This is our third or fourth time experiencing the general store and it’s definitely our favorite restaurant .

    Celebrated my birthday dinner. Food and service were both excellent. The noise level was high but expected on a Friday night. Crab pizza and poke appetizers were wonderful. All the entrees we had were great including ahi over udon noodles, Korean bbq braised beef, coconut seafood curry, and mahi-mahi dish. All topped off with a birthday ice cream and cookie. The rest had upside down pineapple cake. All were wonderful and a great experience.
