    Extremely overpriced. My Ciopino was $76.00 and very salty with not much broth. The atmosphere is really what you are paying for, by the ocean, but the food was only fair and the bill for 2 people sharing an appetizer with 2 drinks was over $300.00.

    We had the special, kompachi lau lau and it was outstanding in presentation and taste. Very unique and delicious dish! Chef Junior came over before our meal and described how it was prepared and his enthusiasm was contagious. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening!

    They put us a party of 4 at a huge round table easily for 8 so we had to shout across the table, and to make it worse the table was right next to the kitchen. We asked to be moved but they told us that it would mess up the server’s section (whatever that means, but it doesn’t sound like it’s about the customers’ experience or wishes). The server was slow to serve drinks and take orders and the. Disappeared for long stretches of time. It took over an hour to get the first course, and even then only one dish came out. We had to ask what happened to the other first courses. Then the server never returned with the wine list do we had dinner with no wine. The food was meh, not worth the price, and the service was not okay. Bummer, because we were looking forward to it…

    I dined here for my birthday with my daughter and her partner. We were very much surprised by an excellant evening! The setting is exquisite, with a lovely musician playing guitar and singing familiar covers so very well. The service was top notch - responsive, caring but never intrusive. The food was the best I have ever had on the island (and I live here!). We ordered lots of appetizer/small plates to share and everything was wonderful, creatively flavored and artfully plated. The lobster bisque was amazing with just the right amount of chili oil and shishito peppers. The scallops and crispy pork belly was done to perfection. There is an attention to detail here on every level. This is most certainly a great place for a special occasion.

    Ambiance is laid back elegance… overlooking the ocean! Wish music was simply instrumental instead of singing… food was good… not exceptional but setting was so lovely and made up for food! Perhaps I ordered wrong fish… it was so thick that inside was still too raw for me…

    Beautiful sunset dinner. Everything about our experience was outstanding. Staff was amazing, food was perfect, live music was appreciated. They remembered we were celebrating my wife’s birthday.

    The service was amazing but I felt the food to be a bitter overrated . The brussel sprouts though cooker perfectly were very bitter in flavor. We also got the tomohawk ribeye steak again cooked perfectly but it was extra salty making it almost difficult to eat . Definitely can’t beat the atmosphere.
