Well! The service was excellent, the cocktails were fantastic & delicious happy hour appetizers. Peighton the bartender is fabulous as were all the staff we encountered there - all so friendly & welcoming. We’ll be sticking to Happy Hour and seafood there in future. Definitely recommend dining here or at the very least Happy Hour (ps. the local Ahi Sashimi with ginger soy sauce is to die for).” - pinkerrific, Trip Advisor

We had lunch here and were definitely impressed! We had sashimi salad and ulu fish done in a tomato olive sauce. The fish was so fresh! We started with the fried calamari, perfectly fried, tender and not overdone. Of course, we had the sashimi again. And the tomato and burrata cheese salad. We love salads here because Hawaii has the freshest tomatoes and tastiest salad greens. The Happy Hour dishes were half price.

The main courses were fantastic! My husband had the linguini Vongole(clams) and I had the Pasta Pescatore with jumbo shrimp, giant and tender scallops, crab and calamari. The pasta on both dishes were perfectly done, al dente with just the right touch of peppery flakes. I'm having the leftovers for breakfast.

The food was great! Usually, Happy Hour diners are seated at the bar but we asked for a table as we were staying for dinner. The service was excellent”  - Sandy L., Yelp Review

Great views. All day happy hour. Drinks were excellent. Food was ok but just small nibbles on happy hour except my friend had the sliders which came with wedge fries and were substantial. I had ahi and octopus polenta (the octopus was good). I'd definitely go again, and in fact I went twice this week with two different friends who liked it as well.” - Lisa D., Yelp Review

“...I ordered the ahi sashimi w/soy ginger sauce. There were 3 pieces and it was $14. The ahi was very fresh and tasty!..” - Tina M., Yelp Review
