This place is fantastic! I booked about a month in advance due to a friend’s recommendation and I was not disappointed. The service was thorough, empty plates were promptly cleared and water glasses were always full. The food proved to be some of the most delicious plates I’ve had in my life. Do not miss the Burmese Tea Salad or the Epaulette, both were some of the best bites I’ve had in a long time. Thank you FOH and BOH for working so well together and providing myself and my family with our best dining experience while visiting O’ahu!
