    If you are hoping for a fine dining restaurant this isn’t for you. However, the food and service were good. We really enjoyed the sizzling mushrooms, Teriyaki steak and the dumplings.

    Accommodating! I booked for outside and wanted a cocktail. They moved us inside to accommodate our requests on the busiest of nights!

    The food is fantastic, good value for Hawaii. The rice bowls are the way to go, deserts are amazing. The fries are a must order.

    Was good. Food was great, but drinks were messed up royally. Apologies for not saying it, but didn't realize until we left that both my drink and wife's were completely wrong. Ordered the mai tai and got a margarita. Wife ordered a martini with a twist and got a lemon drop. Had fun regardless.

    In a hit or miss dining market, Miyo's stands out for consistency and ambience. We like sitting at the bar so we can watch appetizer prep. Kelvin made things extra special last night, even serving avocado on the side for me (husband is allergic). Bartender is excellent too. Food from the kitchen was delicious. I speak my mind about food quality and experiences because I live here and have the chance to visit lots of places, and I like to help others spend their money well. Honestly, this was one of our better meals on this island.
