    Had high expectations but food was underwhelming for the price. Location was good for sunset. Made a reservation months out but were sat on outskirts by the pool and could barely hear the musicians over bar noise.

    Always delightful to be outdoors enjoying the wonderful artists under the Hau tree. However, very disappointed with the host staff not acknowledging or honoring my preferred seating request when clearly there were those types of seats available as I had to politely insist on being moved. It worked out in the end, but I just wish that the staff was made to understand that if we're going to go to the convenience of making our reservations through OpenTable noting special occasions (this was an anniversary dinner -- also not acknowledged) and other requests, that they take the time to read the note(s) and do their best to fulfill the request(s).
