Wish that they would bring that wine back in.  Today, had Robert as a server. He was excellent and represents your restaurant well. We will be visiting again next week.

- YYeonKansas City / Kansas •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe‘ve been there multiple times, but today’s foods were phenomenal! Everything tastes better than last time we visited. Other things are we always ordered, but tagliatelle was first time. I love the shrimp texture. Near perfection of firmness. Feel very fresh. Zhoug sauce is spicy and delicious. Everything was tasty and we were very satisfied.More infoIstanbul HawaiiPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Honolulu•4.7
- BBernard JrHawaii •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOur first time dining here was a great experience with Japanese cuisine. I was drawn by the name of the restaurant being a Japanese whiskey lover. The sashimi was fresh and their (Cod) butterfish was none like I ever had. It was prepared perfectly not too dry and not too soft the texture was just right. The presentation was also perfect as with Japanese tradition unlike the cheap Japanese restaurants which tries to be traditional yet commercialized. Of course you get what you pay for and we were very pleased with Ambience, service, and especially the food. It was well worth the expense for the experience. Also if you are a Japanese affectionado like I am they also have the highly sought after Yamazaki 18 and Hibiki 21 if you just have to taste it and of course with a price if you’re willing to pay. This will be our regular Special occasion restaurant from now on and perhaps even stop by for lunch if we’re in Waikiki again.More infoRestaurant SUNTORYPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Waikiki•4.6
