    Reservation requesting bar seating was ready upon arrival, with menus, silverware & napkins awaiting our arrival. Staff was young, friendly and attentive, providing recommendations for libations and food favorites. We decided upon several appetizers, and found the crispy duck tacos a favorite! Also enjoyed the shrimp gyoza, with a puree of edamame and avocado. Many diners recommended their ramen bowl entries. They stock a well-rounded number of drinks, from beer and sake, to beautifully crafted non-alcoholic and alcoholic "Lucky" libations. All and all, a very pleasant evening. We will be back for more!

    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.

    This restaurant is on every best restaurants in Honolulu list, so I felt compelled to try it. Dinner on a Wednesday night and they were fully booked. We had appetizers, cocktails, entrees and desserts. Everything was great or excellent. My only quibble is that the rice noodles in the Pho 75 were too soft. We enjoyed the food and experience so much we are returning to try the lunch menu. Restaurant is vibrant and energetic. Great for socializing and conversation. I can confidently recommend this restaurant.
