    Truffle, truffle, and more truffle! We LOVE truffles, and this experience did not disappoint us. The winter white truffles were gorgeous and delicious. Definitely the best truffle dining experience I’ve ever had.

    A truly magnificent experience. The food, ambiance, service and attention to detail was top notch. The wine pairing brought out the spectacular flavors. The quality of the food was exceptional. The sommelier’s knowledge of what to pair and what to expect was amazing. The truffles were aromatic and added so much more to the dishes. Caviar was great as well. Surprised my wife by having her birthday dinner here and she says it is now her favorite top notch restaurant. Thank you Margotto for the unforgettable dinner experience.

    I can't think of anywhere else on Oahu where you could have rare treats such as fresh Alba white truffles or spanking fresh kinmedai bream-- even the eggs are specially sourced. Of course it's expensive, but you're also getting world-class food and wine.

    The food was okay. I ordered the rib eye steak, which had no flavour and was not salty enough. Disappointing. My partner ordered the fresh snapper, which was delicious. The pasta was a little disappointing, as the cilantro garnish overpowered the lobster, which was the main ingredient. It was not well balanced. The biggest disappointment was the service. For a fine dining restaurant, the water was not served properly. He served it across in front of me. He should have served it behind/to the right of me. Doesn't seem to have been properly trained. And the sommelier was even worse. He forced me to agree with what he recommended instead of listening to me. Why did he force me to agree with his opinion? I wish he had listened more to my comments on the wine selection.
