    We get to Oahu a couple of time a year and always make it a point to eat here. We love it and this time was just as good as all the time before. Cabbage salad, spicy cauliflower, yellowtail collar, hamachi and ahi nigiri, soft shell crab roll and the Basque black tea cheesecake for desert. We’re off the booze so had a couple of really good yuzu NA mocktails before dinner. Love this place

    Friendly greeting, prompt seating. Very efficient restaurant. We all tried the tenderloin & all agreed it was definitely tender! Crust is light & crisp! Cabbage salad is a fave with a light drizzle of dressing( both are delish) The robot adds a whimsical and functional element! Very enjoyable meal A tad noisy but that can't be helped...everyone is having a good time. We did too! Thank you!

    The quality was amazing and everything we ordered was delicious. We ordered multiple things but everything was great. All flavors were balanced and while it was all seafood, quality was great such that nothing was “fishy” in flavor.
