Every dish from starter through dessert was not only outstanding, but unusual preparations. This includes perfectly cooked salmon with a chili pepper sauce, the beet starter with creamy goat cheese, and a Thai peppery chocolate dessert. Even the cocktail special was unusual but delicious. Service was prompt and outstanding, and they left a pitcher of water on the table - a plus in my book.

We had a wonderful experience dining here this evening. A big mahalo to all the staff for accommodating my extended family of 7, including a toddler. Our server was on-point, great selection of drinks, the view excellent, the ambiance and noise levels just right. Everyone enjoyed their meals, but especially the mini poke tacos, the mahi tacos and the kids pizza was a huge success for a picky eater.

Absolutely one of the best meals I’ve had on the island so far. Lifelong food enthusiast who has traveled all over the world for the best food. This was certainly one of the better meals I’ve ever had, clearly the best on the island so far. The atmosphere is incredibly casual for this level of food. And almost all of the servers were exceptional.
