This place is over-hyped.
We had a big party so we had a set menu.
Shared Apps:
Mango Salad
this is rare mango so it's sour tasting, kind of tasted like normal coleslaw but more tart
Hoki Poki
This is ahi tuna on a taro chip, this is the only thing I ate that i would be willing to eat again
Fried Shrimp
nothing spectacular
Blue Cheese Dumplings
this is what westerners may see as a pierogi/perogy and a yellow person like me would never call a dumpling. if you've been to dim sum and had a doughy football shaped thing that is fried with pork in it (both sweet and savory) this is exactly the same doughy outside but with blue cheese in it. (a fusion that I'm not impressed with)
Choice of: ( I of course got to try all)
Lobster Bisque Ramen
The thought of it seems like a win, but execution... not so much. The lobster bisque is really rich and buttery and it made the dish really filling
Loco Moco
Flank Steak, duck egg over rice... so the flank steak was overcooked and marinated like Kalbi but extra salty. The duck egg was done sunny side up this is kind of a more expensive rendition of steak and eggs with a bit of Korean flavor added.
Pineapple Fried Rice
standard Pineapple fried rice, can get similar quality at a fast food joint
Dessert:
Lemon Tart
this is a deconstructed tart, pretty much a cookie with some custard and ice cream with a berry compote. I found this way too tart
banana Split
This can't really be done wrong, although portion is tiny
Drinks:
Carribean Queen
This is pretty much a sangria but in a fun cup, seahorse or flamingo cup and they were all used up by the time we got ours. The waitress kindly took our drinks back and switched cups once they were available.
Birdy Num Num
This was recommended by the bartender and it was really good.
Don't think I'd be back. Overall a decent experience, yay on drinks and service and nah on the food.
