Small restaurant serving delicious local dishes. Everything we ordered was really good. We found the food to be down to earth - creative yet showcasing the high quality ingredients and not overly complicated. Safe to say our favourite spot in Honolulu. Location is above a car dealership which made for awkward parking but no big deal. Is island hop just to come eat here. Service was excellent.

Delicious. It's a bit hidden away above some expensive car dealerships, but the food was excellent, and the service was complementary. My partner and I went for our anniversary, and would go again. It wasn't super-fancy dress up or anything, but it was a very nice meal. Next time, I'd absolutely spring for the prix-fixe menu. Portion sizes are not small, making it even more worth it.
The dinner menu was excellent and our service was great for a Friday evening. I loved my mochi brownie dessert with the signature Gin and Tonic cocktail and would recommend for a nice dinner. It’s a somewhat small dinner and brightly lit, so if you’re looking for a candlelight ambiance I wouldn’t recommend

The location is literally inside the dealership building and there’s 2 ramps leading to the second floor. If you go on the one that’s gated, that’s the wrong side. The ramp is near the backend between the dealership and another building rather than the street ramp facing the stadium

I have been here 2x. The first time was underwhelming (I ordered the paella, oysters, cheesecake and the lychee yuzu drink.) This second time they made up for it. I ordered the risotto, fish dip and black forest cake, Their valet parking is $6 but always crowded. Worth the visit for their customer service and tasty food.

We tried the tasting menu - I loved every course of it. I was very full after the dessert. Our server Jesse was really nice and helpful.

The worst part of the restaurant is that it’s impossible to find. There is an associated cafe that closes early, so after 730 you need to find an entrance that is open through one of the car dealerships, then find a way to the third floor. Once there you can enjoy fine dining among the cars in the many show rooms that adjoin the restaurant. The restaurant is expensive. We had two drinks, one appetizer, one dessert, and two entries for a bit under $200. Everything was excellent, but realize that you are going to pay for it, and we didn’t order one of the many $60 entrees. My favorite was the butterfish.

TASTING MENU FUN! I always love a good tasting menu. Tried this spot on our anniversary while traveling. Great spot. The mochi crusted fish was incredible. Service was strong but not fine dining. Our waiter was awesome but the overall culture is not one of fine dining. One of the unique aspects of this restaurant is that it is literally inside of a Ferrari and Bentley dealership. You have to navigate the parking garage with bad signage to find the valet for the restaurant. we had to ask for help a couple of times. The tasting menu was really strong with great flavors woven into some traditional dishes. Some of it seemed a little over-the-top while others were spot on. Overall we were impressed but felt like the experience overall to price balance was a little off.
