   The view was amazing. We were there for the crab and prime rib buffet. Many choices and different types of food. The prime rib was perfect, however, the crab wasn’t the best .

   The price of the buffet was miss leading. There was a sign at the hostess counter w the pricing and it was $30 more than advertised. Presentation of the food was horrible. Raw fish was warm. Very unsanitary buffet. Everything had a potential contamination hazard. They actually changed out the ice cream scooper water after they overheard me tell my daughter it was a health code violation. We probably won’t ever eat there again.

   Thank you for a wonderful Birthday Brunch. The food was excellent, crab legs were delicious, service was great, and the live Hawaiian music was wonderful. Your hosts, servers, and station chefs were amazing. Thank you for making my father’s 82nd Birthday Brunch lovely.

   Excellent buffet as always. Seems pricy, but better value than upscale restaurants like Jackie Rey’s, and a much better location.

   The Sunday brunch was absolutely not worth it. Not a big selection and only good things were brisket, fresh omelette and pastry’s.

   No clear check in process. Hostess took us to our table and left. Sat and waited for a server to come. We weren’t sure if we were supposed to just go get our food from the buffet or wait. Finally a server came. When asked if he was assigned to our table he seemed to be lost. Then we asked if we should go to get our food or wait for information he said to go get our food. We asked if they had a wine list? What other drinks did they offer, then went to get a drink menu. Prices were a little excessive compared to other places we’ve been to in Hawaii. They served crab legs but didn’t have crackers to break the shells. Will probably not return to this buffet.

    The descriptions were not accurate. Food was good not great. Service was equal.
