    We had an awesome experience celebrating my Dad's 87th birthday. Staff was helpful, Jeff was an awesome waiter, and food was outstanding.

    Beautiful location, especially with all the holiday lights along the harbor. The fare was good, not outstanding but well prepared contributing to a nice evening. Service was good as well.

    The Ono fish was excellent. The ambience was nice with quiet surrounding's and nice linens. The waiter knew the menu and the hostess was friendly and helpful. I would recommend this restaurant. The view outside was pleasant with the Christmas lights and harbor.

    Loved the ceviche. Grilled tiger shrimp was good. My son said his fish and chips were the worst heʻs ever had. The other food (lunch quesadilla and halibut plate) were good, but not remarkable. We had come to celebrate my other sonʻs birthday and there was no mention or acknowledgwment of it. Waitress was attentive and good at keeping sodas and waters filled.
