“We offer impeccable panoramic views and contemporary cuisine, including the freshest catches from the Pacific,” says Waiolu Ocean Cuisine executive chef Joseph Rose, who notes that a new sushi chef and restaurant manager have joined his team and will be helping to revamp the sushi and beverage programs.
“I’m going to introduce a tasting menu in December that will change weekly, if not more often.”
Chips & Dip ($17)
Chips & Dip ($17) offers guests a flavorful appetizer as smoked kampachi dip pairs perfectly with house-made taro chips. Rose explains that this dish was so popular as part of dinner service that it became a customer favorite and must-have option on the new lunch menu.

Ginger Braised Prime Beef Short Rib ($43) is packed with flavor as the tender beef is accented with sesame soy glaze, gobo, shiitake mushrooms and served with okayu rice porridge.
