- JJesseSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined on Feb 25, 2025Amazing food and a great setting. We sat outdoors at the beautifully funky patio tables and enjoyed chilled wine, raw oysters, Furikake ahi steak, and the avocado roll sushi with pico de ahi. The oysters were amazing and fresh, the ahi steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned enough to give flavor but still tast the ahi; but the sushi roll tops everything. It's a surprisingly large portion with a crispy tempura roll and the best pico topping I've ever tasted. I would recommend this anyone looking for that seafood dinner on Waikiki that can be difficult to find. Amazing food and a great atmosphere. Give it a try.More infoGenius LoungePrice: Expensive• Hawaiian• Waikiki•4.4
