An outstanding dining experience. Service was impeccable and 5 star food through out. While somewhat pricy, well worth it. I look forward to enjoying this Sunday brunch again. Don’t miss this one!

They have removed the fresh oysters and the live music:( Price went down and so did the Kamaaina discount. Overall not worth it.

Excellent service from Edison who was attentive, polite and efficient. Prime rib, crab claws, crab benedict, smoked salmon, poke, shrimp cocktail, were among the standouts. Mixed salad was great, but somehow missed on dishes with cooked vegetables and or fish options (seafood buffet?). Spectacular ocean view complimented the huge space with plenty of elbow room.

Dear Claire, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're happy Edison provided excellent service, making your visit more enjoyable. It's great to hear you loved so many of our standout dishes, though we appreciate your constructive feedback as well. We look forward to welcoming you back to 'Ikena for another memorable meal!

Seafood seems less than fresh. Perhaps smaller batches would work better.
