If you're looking for authentic, delicious poke, this place is absolutely worth a visit. I've…read moretraveled all over the world, and I know how difficult it can be to find a great poke bowl in the U.S. This place exceeded my expectations. I ordered the Signature Hawaii Bowl and swapped the tuna for spicy tuna. It was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and so good that I practically inhaled it! They also have traditional Hawaiian drinks, and seeing POG on the menu was a huge bonus--it's always my favorite. I ordered the Grilled Steak Hawaii Box for my kids, and they loved it just as much. They cleaned their plates in no time. They also serve ramen, so I'll definitely be coming back to try that next. Whether you're craving authentic Hawaiian flavors or just want an amazing meal, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely be back, both for my favorite bowl and to explore more of the menu! Had a definite tropical vibe and loved it.

And I had it on Gluten Free bread, which was yummy, too. They cater to people with gluten or dairy intolerance. Even the pickle was gourmet! The tomato basil soup is super creamy and delicious, as well. I've also tried their coconut matcha green tea with almond milk at the suggestion of the barista and was thrilled. Don't be put off by the color! The ambiance is lovely here. You'll come back again and again!

So get back to my car - it was basalmic vinegar and the potato had sour cream which I can't eat. 3 different people and all not competent. Place was empty and a mess. 2 meals and I am starving.

We dined here a year ago while in town. The service was absolutely AWFUL, however, the food was…read moreDELICIOUS. This was the only reason we were willing to give them a second chance. Our First Experience: There was only a 30 minute wait, which we were fine with. Initially, the server was friendly and welcoming. We ordered the crab dip appetizer, roasted chicken, chicken parmesan, and a kid's cheese pizza. Unfortunately, our server disappeared after bringing us our first (and only) round of drinks. Somehow, either our crab dip was never placed or just forgotten about because our food arrived, but not our appetizer. The server apologized and offered to get the crab dip reordered and expedited. The manager did come over to apologize and offered to comp the appetizer. The roasted chicken The chicken was the highlight of our table. It was juicy and delicious. The mashed potatoes were creamy and buttery! The chicken parmesan It was pretty good, but nothing to write home about. I tried it once and that was enough for me. I wouldn't order it again. The kid's cheese pizza Better than average pizza. My kids enjoyed it. The crab dip DELICIOUS!!! We appreciated the savory chunks of crab and the overall flavor! The service: As previously mentioned, it wasn't the best. An appetizer was forgotten and drinks were never refilled despite being completely empty for more than half of the meal. Overall experience Even though the service wasn't good, we still enjoyed the food. The fact that an apology was given and the appetizer was comped gave us hope for a pleasant future visit. Our last and FINAL experience: I attempted to call the restaurant prior to heading over to see how long the wait would be, but nobody answered the phone. When we arrived, we were told that it would be a 45 minute wait, which we were okay with. The host did mention that we should have called ahead since reservations were preferred. She acted surprised when I informed her that I did try calling ahead. We ordered the crab dip appetizer, roasted chicken, beef stroganoff, kid's cheese pizza, and kid's chicken tenders. I'm not kidding when I tell you it was like deja vu. We are seated in the same lonely corner by the bar away from everyone else despite having well behaved kids. Our appetizer didn't make an appearance until after saying something when our food arrived. Once is an excusable mistake, but twice is not acceptable. The roasted chicken Very dry and underwhelming. My husband had been looking forward to this dish since our last trip to Abilene a year ago. It was not what he remembered at all. The beef stroganoff Good flavor, but the tiny pieces of tenderloin were dry and tough to chew. The kid's cheese pizza Very good. The kid's chicken tenders Excellent chicken tenders. Fries were just okay. The fries were barely touched. The chicken tenders were devoured. The crab dip Not at all what we remembered it being. Instead of tiny chunks of crab meat, it had chunks of cauliflower. My husband and I felt deceived when we thought we were about to bite into a delicious chunk of crab only to bite into a firm piece of cauliflower. We don't remember cauliflower being in the dip last year. It changed the flavor profile of the dip. We didn't get any bites of crab in the dip. We weren't about to complain since it was being comped. The service DISAPPOINTING. Our server pretty much gave up even trying to provide a pleasant experience once the missing appetizer was mentioned. The manager did come over and apologize and even offered to comp the appetizer. We didn't see much of our server after that. We had to flag her down to get her attention for a drink refill. Once we were finished with our meals, we couldn't locate our server. After seeing us looking defeated and frustrated, the bartender came over to check on us. We explained that we just wanted to pay for our food and leave. She apologized and went to get our check. The manager made her way over and apologized again. She even offered to send us with a complimentary dessert to go to make up for the terrible experience. I really wish that we had passed on the dessert because our server wasn't around to bring it out to us. It was like she was intentionally avoiding us. We were in no way rude to her. I'm baffled by her behavior. You would think that after an honest mistake was made she would do her best to make the rest of our experience better. The manager ended up checking on us yet again after noticing that we were still there... waiting for our beignets. She apologized again and made sure that our beignets were brought out to us shortly after that. Overall experience DISAPPOINTING!!! I was tempted to give this place only one star due to the poor service, but to be fair, the food is good and the manager did do her best to make it right. I respect her efforts. Unfortunately, we will not be giving this place a third chance.

Being our first visit, we tried to sampler so that we could experience 3 of the apps at once. The calamari, mozzarella sticks and "toasted" ravioli all seemed to be fried in the same batter, and the same oil. I would question the quality of the items even before frying.... and the frying didn't help their cause. I ate one bland, not-so-fresh tasting calamari ring, one bite of a mozzarella stick and one bite of the ravioli. The rest of the appetizer went home to the dog. I mean, this place is dated, and this I knew before eating. Which is fine--I think many of us have a need to experience the nostalgia of the Italian restaurants of yesteryear. Rubber grapes hanging from the ceilings, painted images of Italy on the wall. Unchanged from when I was a teenager in Western NY and we would go out for Italian; the decor and menu seem to be the same. But the quality of ingredients needs to be current. We have come to expect better! A lot of Italian places are doing more creative things, with better calamari. Appetizers such as burrata and carpaccio are present on modern Italian menu's. If you are going to stick with the old stuff, it needs to be GREAT. Okay, enough of the negativity. The Chicken Florentine ordered by my companion was very good. The sauce was nice, flavorful, and not too heavy (although perhaps too generous but that's going back to the dated thing). I have a sampler of stuffed pastas, and the red sauce was very much to my liking. A touch of sweet, not too acidic, just the way I like sauce to be. They have a decent wine selection. I didn't try the desserts. I'm quite a cannoli purist...and I hate to be disappointed, so I didn't risk it. Overall--we'll be back. We'll be back for the friendly and consistent service, the generally good food (skip the fried stuff), and the kitschy ambience.

Here are my food, service and ambiance thoughts:…read more Food- One star. The ceviche was tossed in some sort of sauce reminiscent of ketchup. Why??? (chips were pretty good) The salmon was overcooked and the grilled broccoli practically raw. This meal was so underwhelming it reminded me of maybe something you might pick up in a grocery store in that section where people who don't cook go to get ready-made meals. It was right at that level. Service- Two or three stars. Mediocre. I've been here once before, btw, and that experience was probably an overall 3-star. This time was right before a show at the convention center next door. You'd think that maybe the restaurant would have been prepared for a crowd? Apparently not, since our food was slow to come (the table next to us had both of their steaks comp'ed due to slow service and not being cooked as asked). When I asked for a wine list, the server stated that he would "try to find one", and it took awhile. And the restaurant was probably only about 60% full. I mean, if I'm going to wait forever for my food, at least let me be drinking while I wait! The appetizer arrived with our food, btw. Love that... Ambiance: Five Stars. The restaurant looks nice. Get your act together, Smokehouse! It would be nice if we could count on a nice meal before a show without having to Uber to and from the hotel/venue for it.
