    It was our second time dining here. We remembered it from our last trip to Hawaii and wanted to go back. It was just as good this time. The food, cocktails, live entertainment, ambience, and service was excellent. It was exactly what we wanted.

    I’ve been wanting to try Gaslamp for so long, and my goodness did they blow us away. We had a great time celebrating our 3rd anniversary here. Clark and the rest of the staff were outstanding. Situated behind the pub, your password will get you into a quaint, cozy speakeasy. The drinks satiate the eyes as well as the palate, and are skillfully crafted within the view of the table. The Truffle Risotto was elegant and light. The Beef Wellington was cooked perfectly to medium rare, and went great with the mash potatoes, roasted vegetables and red wine demi glace. The Veal Chop Special with polenta, brussels sprouts, and bordelaise sauce was delicious as well. The timing of our courses was spot on such that we were able to enjoy a few cocktails in between our entreés. We were lucky to have also been treated to live music which came from the upper balcony. This is the perfect spot for a date night or a small gathering. The only thing I regret was not coming here sooner.

    I visited earlier this year for the first time and loved it so much that I had to bring my family this time. The service was excellent, and all of our food arrived quickly. We ordered the banana chocolate French toast, salmon and spinach eggs Benedict, and the two eggs breakfast—all delicious! I especially appreciated that they offered coffee to go as we were settling the bill. The ambiance is cozy and comfortable, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal.

    The pork wasn't as good as it may have appeared, the lobster, prime rib, and snow crab exceeded my expectations. The bread pudding with it's sauce wasn't overly sweet which without loosing it's wonderful flavor. The genuine Kona coffee was a rare gratifying experience with it's rich, robust, taste and morning appealing aroma.
