My wife and I went to Tommy Bahama Restaurant for a late lunch. We were greet right away and given a choice to sit on the second floor or rooftop area. Our server, Jamie, came over and greeted us and took our order. My wife got the bungalow salad and bar burger sliders while I got the Chilean sea bass. The food was really outstanding along with the service. My wife and I go to Tommy Bahama Restaurant at least once a week because the food is delicious, the people are very friendly, and the atmosphere is very relax and wonderful.

Excellent food, service and great table too. Actually we have never had a bad meal at Hula Grill. The fish and preparation is delicious. Hula Pie is a must. Can be easily shared by 3-4 people.

We sat in the large patio area outside. It was very pleasant, with balmy weather and light trade winds, and we liked the live music (a solo guitarist/singer). We ordered from the Happy Hour menu and the food and drinks were inexpensive. Even though the restaurant was busy we were served quickly. My friend ordered the local shrimp and chips and I had the tempura fish and chips. Our waitress brought us a small glass of Prosecco (no charge) before our meal arrived. The food was delicious and well prepared. The coating on the seafood was light and crispy (not greasy). The service was excellent. Shout outs to our pleasant and friendly waitress Mahina and to the host Kody. We liked the restaurant so much we came back for dessert the same evening after we attended a music event!
