I had the best Avocado toast in Hawai‘i here. It’s almost like what you get in Australia. The pancakes were delicious too.Just wished they had more hot beverages.

Went to try their Easter special lamb chops and was not disappointed! Absolutely knocked it out of park! Perhaps best lamb chops I have ever had. Sauce was rich and amazing, chops tender and cooked to perfection. Hopefully they will have more often than Easter! Service was wonderful as well. We sat outside but could still enjoy the live music.Parking: Parking was free with validationHyatt Centric garage

Friend recommended we try this place and it did not disappoint! Ordered the pork belly fried rice and wife ordered the charcoal pancakes. Both were excellent. The guava-strawberry syrup was perfectly sweet and the pork belly was so tender, you could cut it with a fork easily. Would eat here again.

Go for the food. Creative dishes with a slant on its name. I went for breakfast and had the charcoal pancakes (their signature dish) with a side of bacon. They were fluffy and tasty. There are so many yummy dishes to choose from. I plan to go back. It is inside a market, so it seems a bit odd, but once in the restaurant area, you don't notice. They have outdoor seating, too.

The ribeye and cod were delicious. Very satisfied. You will get delicious food without the pretense, though prices are as expected for Waikiki. BTW, the happy hour food/drink is great.

Definitely the best breakfast my husband and I had on the island! Albeit not healthy, the pork belly fried rice and basalt pancakes were delicious. I recommend going with someone who you can share food with because you’ll want to try more than one dish:)

Went here for both lunch and dinner on our last day. The pork belly fried rice was a super savoury treat but the Miso Black Cod in the evening was absolutely to die for! (Most miso black cod’s I’ve had were overly sweet, this one was buttery and smooth!) The service was friendly and professional and well timed. Would love to go again but alas it’s back to Canada tonight!

Delicious!!!!!! The food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is beautiful and there was live music playing and he was fantastic too. Service was stellar- great attention from my waiter and other runners.

The food was creative & tasted excellent. Our water was very attentive, provided great discussions, and packed our “to go” food very well. The only negative was the time for each course was quite long stretching to be a 3 hour dinner. We had basalt bread, drinks & friends so it was still a great evening.

I had a fabulous meal on the patio last night. My waiter was great. I had their anniversary menu and every plate was delicious! The cod especially. They had a great musician on the patio which added to the ambiance. Seeing this was the last night of my vacation, I would have dined here again given the opportunity. I'll be back on my next visit to Waikiki.
