Norio's - The Fairmont Orchid - Kohala CoastGreat Experience!We ate dinner @ Norios on a Friday evening. The restaurant is not large; they were busy and reservations were definitely needed. The dining area is very pretty with a Sushi Bar available. We were seated for dining and the ambiance is really nice; casual open air dining. We ordered the two Fairmont Signature rolls and enjoyed them very much. We also ordered the red crab cake to share as an appetizer. It was delicious and perfect for two people to share. Service was excellent. Highly recommend and we would go again.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMImprovedThe expanded menu to include beef in addition to the traditional Japanese fair has just improved this restaurant.4/29/2013 12:00:00 AMCome againTruly enjoyed the food though some plates were a miss. We dined twice. First was amazing the second time just OK.
Highly recommend the orchid roll, the Ahi and the sirloin. The wagyu was just OK.
Service was great both times.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMSurprisingly amazing steakEverything is great, but the NY Strip steak is the best I've ever tasted, even compared to the top NYC steakhouses.3/21/2013 12:00:00 AM
