    I took my sister-in-law and her boyfriend who was in town to the lookout. We have been there before so I knew that they would have great food and it was all amazing. The view is great and my sister-in-law and her boyfriend said they love their food. They also had great food for my two kids.

    The staff went above and beyond to make our dining experience exceptional! 😋 The food was delicious and the recommendations for the daily specials were spot on. 🎉 It was the perfect place to celebrate a birthday, thanks to Jeanie and Ana's amazing communication. 📞 They made sure the food was perfect and even accommodated a change in my toddler's meal preference from chicken to kalua pork. 🍕 They were so understanding and took great care of our kids. We really appreciated how they rushed the pizza order for us. 👍🏼 While we had a not-so-great experience before, this visit completely changed our minds. I'm open to further discuss additional improvements, if given the opportunity to assist with advancing the service. All in all we enjoyed our dinner & service. We'll definitely be back! #AmazingService #DeliciousFood #BirthdayCelebration

    We went when had live music. The performer was good. Sorry I didn’t take notice of his name. We had a party of 6, and our waitress (I didn’t get her name either😩) was sooooooo awesome. She was very friendly, helpful and patient. When I got my food, I was dismayed to find sesame seeds in the panko mix. (I am allergic to sesame seeds.) when I tried to order something else, she asked “what was the problem?” So I told her that on the description of my dish there was no mention of sesame seeds that’s why I ordered it. I told her not to worry I could just take it for my son to eat. She immediately apologized asked me what I wanted to order. She insisted on making things right. I appreciated that. Our experience here was awesome.
