My boyfriend and I visit Signature every year to celebrate his birthday, and each year, the entire team at Signature truly excels! Noa, Devin, and Jordan were exceptional! We can't praise them enough for the outstanding service we received at Signature. The experience was top-notch, surpassing all expectations with excellent attention to detail and amazing customer service. The list of praises could go on and on. Even the smallest details, like the birthday/celebration dessert, were simply amazing.

The food presentation and taste was very good! The service was also good except the main course took a little longer than expected. They seemed to be short handed. I highly recommend Wai Olu!
