   We had an excellent table with views of the Pacific Ocean. The service was attentive without being overwhelming. The filet was very good and the sea bass was excellent. The haulani kiss was an excellent after dinner drink. After dark the insects and a light shower did appear, but after a glass of wine, we didn’t mind too much.

    great food! Service was very nice and welcoming. we both had fish. The Kona kombachi and the Seabass were well prepared, perhaps the best we have had in our three week vacation. also, the fish selection was more interesting. (This time, on the island, we found only mahi-mahi and ono in other restaurants but disappointing in texture . Not here. Instead tender and flavorful,.)  and a cheesecake was divine. It was light and paired fantastically with the passionfruit. Good wine list. The only thing that bothered both of us was the feeling being in an alien place, even though the views were nice, but nothing special and could’ve been anywhere. To get there and to get away back to Kapaa increased that feeling of being in a disconnected place.  Long narrow curvy streets in the dark for about 10 minutes before we rejoined life and planet Earth, it seemed.

   The view at this resturant is absolutely beautiful! We were early for reservations so had drink at bar and staff is very friendly and helpful! For dinner we had Lobster Tempura and short rib pot stickers which were excellent. My husband had the miso sea bass and I had the ribeye both very very good. Our waitress was friendly and knew the menu well! Will definitely go back!

   Early lunch, off cruise ship. Uber transported, wonderful outdoor seating, great service. Fish & Chips (Striped Swordfish, catch of the day)…very enjoyable!

   With our reservations, we were seated immediately and with a view of the ocean. The food was good but the waiter did forget one of the appetizers s for my daughter but once we told him it was out quickly. Overall we have several different dishes and everyone enjoyed the food and ambience.

   The location is stunning, with ocean views from the table. The service was excellent, and the food was one of the best meals I've ever eaten!

   Mark is the best server ever. We always appreciate his attention to detail and friendly personality. It was crowded today as there was no outside seating because of the wind. It was surprisingly noisy inside, which is unusual.

    Hello, We arrived at 6:25 and we were told they can not seat us until closer to the reservation. Our reservation was at 6:30. The food was good but did come out on the cooler side. We waited a very long time in between appetizers and the entree. A celebration was going on and they were loud at times and must have slowed the kitchen down for the rest of the guest. We sat to long and I was getting cold with the fans blowing on high.
