Tired of all of the all you can eat/stuff into your stomach buffets, we went to Roy's for their Hawaiian fusion cuisine.
We started off with some appetizers. Lobster California rolls, Haleakala Sunrise rolls and Crispy wok fried calamari. I wasn't quick enough for the Haleakala rolls, but the Lobster California rolls were very good. The calamari could have been better.
Roasted corn and sweet potato chowder was excellent. The corn kernels were tender, sweet and crisp. A sweet and warm soup for the soul.
My entree was the Hawaii Kai beef short ribs. Very tender beef with a sweet soy sauce marinade, topped with bits of onion and red pepper made for a tasty dish.
Finally dessert was Haupia creme puffs. The Haupia, a coconut pudding, had a very subtle flavor. i would have preferred a stronger coconut flavor and something sweeter.
The service was excellent. The downside was the tastiness of a couple of the dishes.
