    Great somewhat hidden little gem. Great service with multiple employees efficiently working together to provide everything timely. Excellent food - the deep fried deviled eggs were amazing! Hard to find clam chowder in Honolulu, but here it is and it was awesome. The Southern ice tea blend was worth the price - very unique! Our new favorite location.

    Restaurant was conveniently located close to Hawaii Kai. Parking was tight, but they had a gentleman directing where to park, which was nice. Food was excellent. My wife had the lobster pasta, so good, and I had the rack of lamb, I think the best I have ever had and I order that a lot. Wine selection was limited. We’re going back on a weekend to try their prime rib.

    The staff were so quick and attentive. Our drinks and food came out so quick, especially for a busy Friday night. The food was amazing, we didn’t even have any leftovers to bring home! Definitely recommend for anyone in the area, especially for dinner and drinks around an event at Blaisdell.
