    The food was marvelous. Especially the coconut shrimp. We ordered three portions! Appetizers were great, salad as were huge, we all shared. Leave room for fruit pancakes for desert. Soufflé style with fruits and sauces, they were a delightful surprise.

    Hesitated to go here because I thought it would be crowded and inconvenient, as it is slightly off the beaten path. Glad I booked a reservation using Open Table! Though the restaurant wasn't packed when we went (it was a Sunday morning, too), I was glad that the option of making a reservation was available - which is not the case at many other breakfast places. I had the fruit souffle pancake with coconut sauce (another Open Table reviewer suggestion!) - oh my, so yummy and very pretty - and surprizingly quite filling! My husband had the loco moco, which was also very good (and he eats them everywhere!). Nice beef patty with delicious brown gravy. I also had a side of bacon, which was - I think - only $2.50 for three slices and a total bargain compared to other restaurants! It was nicely prepared, to boot! The restaurant is small but it is nice and airy feeling with its white and light blue interior. The service was great - very personable and made us feel welcome. Parking at Eaton Square was so convenient, too. We'll be back!

    I always try to go here when in town. STRONGLY suggest using OPEN TABLE app for a reservation, or calling ahead or you may not get a seat! Great place

    Highly recommend but make a reservation since the line wraps around the building. It is hidden off the main road but worth the short walk.

    This place was tucked away and what we finally found it, I was nervous. It's a little hole in the wall and I was planning dinner for my husband and his work colleagues - I was unsure if I'd made a good decision. When we arrived, our table was waiting and they were expecting us. My husband and his colleagues ordered loco moco, two of which ordered the special: curry loco moco. It was incredibly! I ordered the lobster risotto, which was also great. We had nice service and delicious food. No view, but you'll be so consumed with what is on your plate it won't matter too much :)

    we are staying around the corner from this place and didn't even know it was there! I believe that they do have people that stand on the main corner directing people to it, but we only found it via opentable and saw the reviews so went to check it out. The decor is not super fancy but it's neat and seems clean. Kind of a romantic atmosphere in a city sense with candles on the table. We made a reservation for soon after it opened but there were plenty of tables. Attentive service and they sent over a sample of one of their soufflés to taste. My husband went for one of those - I can't remember exactly which but it looked amazing and he said it was delicious. Definitely big enough to share - he's a big eater and could only eat half! I ordered the special which was a Ribeye with mashed potatoes and salad and that was delicious as well. Cooked the way I wanted and came with an au jus which was delicious and made with their Hawaiian bbq sauce. We also got an order of onion rings which we ordered well done because we like them crispy and those were perfect. We didn't order any drinks or wine. Service was prompt and pleasant. Definitely a hidden gem!

    Booked a table for dinner at this restaurant after reading others reviews. Was not disappointed. Just down the road from Hawaiian Hilton village and about a 20 min walk from downtown Waikiki. Small restaurant with great service. The soufflé pancake appetiser was a nice start. This was followed by a creamy and very tasty lobster risotto and loco moco All food tasty, extremely well presented and reasonably priced. Liked it so much we went back for breakfast the next day.
