We were 11 in our party celebrating several June birthdays and decided to come here. Many of us or maybe even all of us had never been there before. This place is extremely popular, especially in early July. Parking is definitely an issue as only about 3 spaces out front and 2 in lot but this evening those spots were blocked with cones. Most everyone thought all the starters & entree’s were very good. A few to mention, the cerviche, steamed clams (a little disappointing) , & soups. Entrees to mention were the filet mignon, short ribs, spicy thai seafood curry, very hot, (over the top hot so much so it was almost inedible). & the mahi mahi. We did have reservations for 8:15, but still waited awhile before being seated. Which is understandable as we were a large party in a very popular restaurant. Reservations are a must & the place is BYOB.

We love Ohana Grill. We come here once or twice a year. This visit was for our 38th wedding anniversary. We have dined here for some of our other anniversaries too.
Miriam took great care of us for the special dinner. my wife had the tuna steak over mango rice. She said it was the best tuna she has ever had. The cut was perfect and cooked perfectly, very rare in the middle. I had the shrimp stir fry over coconut rice and vegetables. This dish was delicious and had a little bit of a kick to it.
A special thanks to Gina who accommodating us to make this reservation three weeks ago. I was a little late I’m pulling the trigger to make the reservation and Gina did her best to squeeze us in for this special day. Thank you Gina!
Ohana Grill is BYOB.
Street parking is limited in this area, so plan ahead.
Enjoy!!! We always do.

What a great restaurant. Very intimate with exceptional food. This was my 3rd visit this summer. Mike our waiter was knowledgeable and vey attentive. The chef/owner makes interesting specials. Everyone at my table was raving about their meal.

I’d like to say that I am sorry to only give three stars, especially during the pandemic; however, it is the appropriate rating based on my experience. My group of five each ordered our own meal, plus appetizers, for takeout. All of the food was delicious, especially the filet mignon; however, one of our meals was not included in our order, forcing us to all lend portions of our already-small meals to this member of the family so that she could eat! Forgetting someone’s entire Mahi-mahi dinner is not acceptable, especially when we paid over thirty dollars for it.

Cannot understand concept of not seating party of 4 when 2 are already here. Restaurant was freezing when 95 degrees outside. Although had reservation seated at table with full view of not attractive kitchen and noisy. My meal was okay but mashed potatoes were stone cold.

We tried this restaurant during restaurant week. The food was delicious! It seemed that every table was booked, but the service was wonderful. We will be returning.

I was able to get a reservation during Labor Day weekend and was so happy I called ahead. The place is small but very quaint and charming. The vibe is tropical with a shore flare. We were seated near the open kitchen which is entertaining to see. The service was spot on. Our food came out at nice pace without waiting too long. It is a BYOB which was fine for us. Our white wine paired well with our dinner selections, even though my husband had the sirloin it still was amazing. I went with the black cod special and my sister had the seared scallops over risotto. Everything tasted delicious. So glad I finally made a reservation to dine here. Highly recommend.

We recently dined at this establishment. The menu has many choices. We were very excited to have dinner here. Unfortunately we were disappointed . The beet salad was mostly dry arugula with possibly One beet in it. The bread was stale. Several of us ordered Seafood dinners. They were all absolutely tasteless. The portions were ridiculously small. Members of our group that had the filet mignon were happy with it. Honestly this place is overpriced for what you get. Parking is difficult. Wait staff is extremely friendly but that won't be enough to bring us back.

The title says it all. We tried it twice. The perfect example of the title is the “lobster and crab stuffed Mahi Mahi. It was small enough to easily consume in three bites. An experienced Marine biologist would have trouble finding any lobster or crab. It was accompanied by ice cold mash potatoes and the price was $36. I could go on about my wife’s meal but I think this provides a complete picture.

Visited Ohana Grill on Thursday evening with friends. Six of us. Had just returned for the summer and we were not disappointed. Chef James and his entire staff were at the top of their game. The food was cooked exactly as ordered and was of the highest quality. The service was outstanding as well. If you go, remember it is BYOB.

Dining room is loud and filled with smoke from the kitchen. Nice pre fix menu but my kale salad was missing a main ingredient because they ran out and rather than offering a different choice they brought me a bowl of kale with some pine nuts and almost no dressing. The other 2 people at my table did enjoy their salad and chowder.
Next the entrees took forever and then only 2 out of 3 arrived and 1 was cold. The 3rd arrived 5 minutes later. My entree was terrible. Blackened salmon the was insanely overcooked, severely over seasoned and steaming hot. In contrast the coconut rice had no flavor.
On a positive note dessert was good, the portion sizes were large and the prefix menu is a good value.

We ate at The Ohana Grill for the first time on Mother's Day. We all enjoyed it very much. I especially liked the panko and wasabi shrimp app. Great Grouper and fantastic deserts. Can't wait to go back. Also, best coffee I've had in a while - better than Starbucks.

There was a very nice crowd on a Thursday evening in the cold, cold weather. Hostess greeted us warmly. Waitress worked with our dietary requests and placed the order in the kitchen to give our party, who had not seen each other in a while, time to chat. Clear winners were the Vermont cheddar onion soup, smoky sized spinach salad (both appetizers), snapper encrusted in almonds, stuffed pork loin (both mains), and bread pudding. Coffee was FABULOUS (even decaf). Very impressed at the size of portions, even for price fix Thursday. Go soon!
