    Food was great but the restaurant is so greedy. They charged me $5 for sauce for my $60 steak only. Everything is alacarte. So while the food and service was great. Just wasn’t worth the hefty bill. I would rather go to Roy’s or Jackie Rey’s where you get 2 sides with the steak.

    Beautiful view but the food was marginal. I first want to say 1 waitress for the entire restaurant is ridiculous. My burger was so overcooked it was crisp. Other people on my table could see it was overcooked just looking at it. Another girl had Ahi that was also way overcooked. Things with breading had small shrimp and huge amounts of breading. Waitress was pleasant enough but hard to find since waiting on the entire restaurant.

    Best Porkchop I’ve ever had! Very affordable for Hawaii and when we went there was some nice live music. Full bar with good cocktails. Would definitely come back again

    It has been a while since I have found a restaurant worth talking about. The food was delicious. Can’t wait to go again.

    Lots of misses. Has great potential. Food was just ok but way overpriced for the quality. Offer sauces with your steaks. Wine list we got was all international but they said they had domestic but no list when we asked.

    Best steak in Waikoloa. Definitely recommend anyone looking for a good steak restaurant. Service from Hunter was outstanding. He was not to be our server but a large table got seated right before us and could see the server was going to struggle and stepped in to make sure we got everything we needed and did fabulous. Started with shrimp cocktails and those were excellent. I had the Filet and my wife the lobster tails, both were excellently prepared. We will be coming back!

    The view of the Golf Course and the mountains/volcanos was breathtaking. The food was pretty good and the drinks were refreshing.

    Good food and service. Yummy baked potato and rack of lamb. Great jazz entertainment. Limited outside seating. A little pricey!
