- HHeatherVIPLos Angeles •15 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoGreat drinks and food, bartenders and servers were all very nice and attentive. Service was quick. Quality of food was very good but Caesar dressing was a bit weird ((I still ate it) and I don’t think pickled onions belong on a Caesar even tho I like pickled onions. The servings were generous. Wings and fish and chips were yummy.More infoThe Crooked Surf at the Sheraton Coconut Beach ResortPrice: Moderate• Hawaii Regional Cuisine• Wailua (Kauai)•4.3
- MMonicaSeattle / Eastern Washington •5 reviews4.0Dined on Dec 30, 2024Good food with a robust selection of menu items. We went with a group of 5, each with different food preferences (including teens and a 10 year old) and everyone found something they liked. Quality of ingredients was solid and presentation was nice. It was a bit odd that we had a reservation, there were several open tables available and yet when we checked in for the reservation (2 minutes early) they told us to wait so they could set a table for us. Our waiter was friendly and was definitely hustling. We'd happily eat here again.More infoBangkok Happy Bowl Bistro and Bar + Poipu Rock 'n Roll SushiPrice: Moderate• Thai• Poipu•3.8
