    We really enjoyed our evening at Keoki's Paradise. The ambiance is warm and inviting. Our server was attentive and the food was great. I had the seafood risotto which was cooked perfectly, and my husband had the prime rib which was also delicious. Our dining experience was topped with the unexpected bonus of live entertainment from the Tahitian dance performers (Tumoana) who perform every other week at the establishment. Would definitely recommend checking this place out....Save room for dessert!

    From the moment the valet took our vehicle, we were taken care of immediately and attentively, not only with their service but with their smiles as well. at every point of our evening here we were greeting with welcoming smiles. our seating hostess was quick and attentive and our waitress was top notch! She was so helpful with the menu and took care of our every need. From the drinks and appetizers to the dessert, every dish was not only delicious, but beautiful! This was a simple date night for my wife and I while on the island, but the service and quality of the staff, food, and atmosphere at Red Salt elevated this to a truly memorable experience!
