    Surprisingly bad. Yucky fried food. Tasteless fried rice. Duck fat was not crispy. Tuna pizza is like leftover bits of tuna on a burnt tortilla. Sauces are too heavy, including the string beans. The ambiance is not hospitable — lights too high, pictures of food on the wall are lame and feel 30 years old. Much better options elsewhere.

    My family and I really enjoyed the overall experience. We were seated shortly after arriving for our reservation; the waiter was knowledgeable and very friendly, the atmosphere / ambience was trully pleasant, and the food presentation was top notch. The appetizers and drinks were excellent. What I didn’t love, that didn’t impact my ratings, but worth mentioning,three things: -The online menu was dated and some of the items we wanted to try were no longer available; -the shrimp needed to be peeled (the menu or the server should have mentioned that); -while everything we tried had amazing flavor, friend rice was a little bland.

    Very over priced for the service and food. It’s white cloth prices in lilies better than doraku or cheesecake factory. Highly doubt that Morimoto has anything to do with other than name. Nothing like Morimoto restaurant that was in the ilikai. Drop prices 50% and it would be 4 stars.

    Outstanding dinner experience. Our server Yoon was amazing and attentive. The food was amazing. Highly recommended the angry lobster. I could’ve had a second serving 🤣 🤤

    This is one of our go to restaurants in HNL. We have been going here since it opened and as well to its predecessor at the Modern. While the food is exquisite (sticky ribs are the best you will ever have), we have determined that the real reason we keep coming back is the staff. This year, they confirmed that beyond our expectations. Bryan was our server and he was fantastic, enthusiastic and friendly. The manager, Vinnie, came over to our table and a good visit turned into something truly memorable! Thank you Vinnie! We look forward to continuing to come back; for the food but more importantly, the amazing/great/welcoming staff!
