We had a private room for our office Holiday dinner. There were 9 of us and we fit perfectly in the back room. Our server Loreal was outstanding! She was so attentive and checked on us often. 4 of us ordered Tomahawks which ended up smoking the room but there is a back door we opened for vent and the staff brought a portable fan to blow the smoke out. We lived our dinners and will be back!

We had our annual gathering at Basalt and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was perfect for a fun catch up among friends. The food was on point and delicious. The Broccoli Bisque and Miso Cod were the table favorites, however, everything was delicious and the desserts, oh my! sinfully tasty. The staff was attentive, and even being served by the manager on duty, who also checked on us here and there. Mahalo to Managers, Kaulana & Ron, Server Matt & his team, and of course, Chef Tim. 5+ stars! Highly recommend! We will be back for sure!

Always make a point to visit Zigu when in town. The food is ALWAYS fantastic and the service great! Highly recommend and plan to return again soon!

For our 33rd anniversary, we decided to fly to Honolulu to attend the Opening Night of Cirque du Soleil’s Auana and then try Mugen Restaurant for Breakfast the following morning. We wanted to see if it was worth the trip to return for Dinner and the full experience at a later date. We were not disappointed. Ralph and Gerric served us - while also answering all of our questions about the dinner menu and service. The breakfast fare was amazing! It was fun to watch the morning chefs select fresh cuttings of herbs from their indoor hydroponic herb garden. The food was healthy and prepared beautifully. The mango chicken sausages were plated with fresh edible marigolds. It wasn’t just a meal, it was an experience. Mahalo Nui to Chefs Gino & Lowell and to Ralph and Gerric for providing us with seamless service. Patrick Toal & Jon Vagi
