The food was served in small portions but it tasted great. We were with a party celebrating a birthday. The reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because the musician they had tonight was AWFUL. He couldn’t sing and then he literally stopped singing. When we all sang happy birthday we kept looking at him to play his guitar and sing along but he didn’t. Turns out he got kicked out of the restaurant. We saw him stumbling out on the sidewalk. They need to screen their musicians better! Hope this was a one time thing for him or we won’t be back.

Shrimp fried rice was very good. Service was friendly and attentive. Only one fried fish dish and a salmon dish on the menu… they also offer Ahi Poke and Ahi Nachos. IMO the restaurant needs to offer more island fish dishes.

The menu is small, but done right. You’re never going to get a bad dish here. That said, the menu would benefit from another dish or two. They used to have an amazing diver scallop dish that was phenomenal. Sad to see they took that off from a variety perspective and didn’t replace it with another special dish. Really, that’s my only complaint. The cocktails are amazing. Definitely try the lillikoi mule! The live music makes for a lively atmosphere. Definitely worth a try if you are in the area.
