This is a wonderful restaurant, from the décor to the service to the food, everything is just impeccable! Even its location is perfect: right in the heart of historic Hilo downtown, near the Palace Theater, movie, museum, and bayfront shopping. We like the clean contemporary look of the restaurant, along with the warm lighting and lush green tropical plants everywhere. My partner and I have eaten here several times. The food is always fresh, healthy (no MSG!) and skillfully prepared. Our all-time favorite is the steamed Hawaiian snapper opakapaka in black bean sauce ($14.95). The fish is very mild, succulent and goes well with the spicy black bean sauce, ginger and green onion. Steamed red bell pepper, broccoli, cauliflower, and kabocha squash complete this absolutely delicious dish! We usually pair this dish with brown rice. Another favorite is the Chicken Rama ($10.95) with tender pieces of chicken in tangy peanut curry sauce, served over crunchy Thai water spinach. We highly recommend this little gem of a restaurant to everyone!
Tips: Must try the Thai Iced Tea ($2) but ask for coconut milk instead of the half & half dairy. And don’t forget to try the homemade chocolate ice cream topped with warm vanilla tapioca and fresh strawberry ($6). You might experience a “food orgasm” with this fantastic dessert!!!
