Phenomenal. The 4 course tasting menu w wine pairings is great. Sea urchin soup and the wines are superb, especially the first white wine :

Erwin Hosono

The service is outstanding. This is not your plain grilled seafood restaurant but rather a highly stylized seafood restaurants . It combines European and Asian influences in a lovely way.

Claude Harrison

1 Do engage Max, the sommelier . He has a wealth of wine knowledge to share. 2 Get the John Dory ! Oh, that is a filling, flavorful plate with perfect pan done fish , a creamy risotto and morels galore!

Tasting menu with 4 dishes was delicious, each dish was small as a bite but it was fulfilling as a whole menu. Service is great. A bit pricy but you get great food and service.

Stefania Pomponi

Get the chilled seafood platter , the hamachi shots (3 per order) and the apples and toffee dessert if they have it. Great tea selection and seasonal coffee (peppermint coffee ).

Claude Harrison

Extensive wine list (Kistler Pinot @ $130? YES!!!) ... Lobster rocks & Grilled octopus are winning Ppetizers, though small ... Worthy of the price sized entrees that make you smile.

Chris Monteiro

Absolutely fantastic. Everything in this place is good. Excellent service . 10/10

The Wild Hawaiian mero with lobster , trumpet mushrooms , bell pepper miso , and bonito is to die for.

Nora Chang

Food was delicious. Wine list was good. Was disappointed with desserts . Got churros and the strawberry .

Wouter Blok

The Seppia cuttlefish & risotto was an envy dish for my tablemates. The PB&J desert was delicious as well ! Oh yeah, Hamachi !

Travis W

It is okay to go here and ask for the vegetarian risotto dish. It is delicious, and packed with mushrooms .

Richard Gardner

Dungeness Crab Salad right now in season is an obvious choice; very good. "Pandora " choc mousse + a nice tawny port is a great pairing

Jeff H

It’s expensive but it sure is good. The sea bass was outstanding. Also, oddly enough, they serve cotton candy .

Ian Chee

Always get the uni/sea urchin when available!

Mercedes-Ynna J-A

Always let them know when you're celebrating something special. The chef & servers take extra effort to ensure a wonderful meal.

Jordan Frankfurt

The trio... Woah. Best steak you will ever eat.

Tatiana Lutz

Perfect place for special occasions . Best lobsters I've ever had!

Nora Chang

The food was wonderful, but I found the desserts rather unimpressive. We ordered the churros and the strawberry desserts .

Opp

Amazing. The tasting menu with the wine paring was excellent.

Doug Makishima

Very nice Prix Fix meals. Broad selection of fish and seafood .

Amy Matsuno

If I could have the hamachi shots from this restaurant everyday, I would die a happy woman.

Osamu Yabe

Hawaiian Mero is just awesome.

Juan Pablo Bedoya

Ask for Lucas at the bar and get his sage sensation cocktail .

Linda

Hamachi shots and the duck were absolutely amazing! Service was eh though...

Diego Meller

Avoid if you go with a baby. They told me it was fully booked (when there were clearly tables) and didn't let me sit at bar cause "minors are not allowed at the bar ", a 7 month old sleeping baby!

Arron Schaar

Try the lobster rocks, way better than himachi shots.

Passion

3-4 times already but this time we found it so so

Eugene Hwang
