This tasteful restaurant with its indoor kahawai (waterway) and views of O'ahu's coastline and Diamond Head has been the special-occasion choice for kama'aina since 1979 for sashimi or crab-stuffed mushrooms, lobster or fresh fish four ways. The lounge menu, including fresh oysters, is one of Honolulu's best-kept secrets. Radio's Perry & Price Show is recorded here on Saturdays and the Sunday brunch is hugely popular with celebrating families.
