- RRuedigerVIPHawaii •630 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAs always we had a great dining experience. We got a table with a wonderful view. The service was impeccable. Food (soup du jour, elk medallions, rack of lamb) was outstanding. With the great wine list they have it is not difficult to find a lovely bottle of wine to pair with the meal. We already have a reservation to return in a couple of days.More infoMammoth Rock BrasseriePrice: Expensive• Continental• Mammoth•4.8
