Outstanding views of the Plantation golf course as well as the beach with whales jumping every five seconds to remind us how nature is so powerful! Pair that with a great holiday menu (3 courses) with plenty of options! I had the crab cakes and my husband a salad to start. Salad was light and fresh and crab cakes were flavorful and crispy. For mains, my husband had the rack of lamb and I had the macadamia nut crusted mahi. Both were delicious and came in big servings. Dessert, was the cherry of the ice cream! The best pineapple upside down cake!!! Our waiter was always on top of everything and was super sweet! We will definitely come back!

D.J. was OUTSTANDING in his Customer Service ‼️So accommodating and kind. Very knowledgeable about the menu and what is offered. We will be back because of his aloha spirit and sweet attitude towards us Tutu’s❣️Also, Shea is terrific too‼️ PLEASE go back to offering the Squash Ravioli the new one is not at all flavorful and doesn’t NOT compare and the Pot Stickers are okay but not as good as the ones before. The Deviled Eggs, New Shrimp 🍤 Appetizer, Fish n Chips, Lamb, etc…are wonderful! If you could make a Day After Pork Belly Ramen as you do at your other Merriman Restaurant that would be great‼️ Mahalo Nui Loa for an enjoyable mealtime and beautiful music 🎶. Suszi🌺

We sat on the patio with a beautiful ocean view. The service, while very friendly, was dreadfully slow, but our drinks and food were fantastic.
