I highly recommend their turkey sandwich on a Swiss Bagel! Their bagels are huge and they really put a lot of turkey inside instead of only two slices that a deli place usually does.  They also serve it with sweet cinnamon sugar bagel chips as a side. Sometimes it has a lot of cinnamon sugar but sometimes it's just a dash! But all in all, it is quite good! I think they use  a Miracle Whip like sauce instead of Mayo in their sandwiches!! What do you think? :P

We got a table on their covered balcony and it was so just a beautiful view of the sun setting.  When the appetizers came, the dishes were presented so artistically that you just didn't want to eat it. All the ingredients were paired so nicely and the taste and textures when blended together went to another level.   Our server was very nice and took very good care of us!! I'm looking forward to another meal at A.W.  Also, if you like li hing mui flavor you should get a taste of their homemade li hing dressing.  It was really tasty with their bread! :)

It was so much exciting wait for the blow hole to explode but with the exception of the wind is blowing so strongly against your face and hair and tiny speckles of water flying into your mouth.  If you go there, make sure you don't wear a hat when you go and wear a heavy jacket.  The water is so pretty there...and if you look across the street, the mountainous hillside has such an interesting cutout in the stone.  It is almost as if you will find some kind a historic sea creature buried inside.

What a beautiful sight is it...but don't be fooled sometimes when Waikiki Beach area is sunny and bright, there might be a light rainstorm going up there in Diamond Head!! That's what happened when we went up there! But it was such a fun drive up to the crater.  Will definitely have to do the hike on a good day next time.  But just sitting just utside the tunnel, you feel so small and how powerful mother nature is.

What a big selection of food there!! I love how they have so much different varieties to please all the palates!! From Japanese to Chinese to Locals to Westerners!! You could just spend hours there!! And all their desserts are pretty good too so make sure you save room!! I like how there is a fresh sushi bar but you're only limit 2 handrolls at a time...just gotta make more trips up there. Everyone there is all so nice.

They have the prettiest children's clothes here and so fancy too!!  I love the little loafers.  If your feet are on the smaller side, you could probably fit into their largest children size.  I can't wait to go back and see their new collection.  The sales people there are all sooo sweet!!

They have such a variety of delicious baked goodies that I feel like I'm in a candy store upon walking in! Their gateau chocolate torte is absolutely divine and decadent and their blueberry torte is so yummy that I always start picking off the crumble before leaving the place. Others to try is their chocolate raspberry delice and their apple torte.

Very reliable and prompt! I hadn't even gotten my luggage yet and the driver already called me to tell me where they would be waiting!! Now that is service!! If you ever need a ride out there, make sure you give them a call!

I can't believe they have better chinese food then in SF!!! That's not fair!! :(

I think the chinese chefs needs to go and take a trip here and learn a handful of tricks from them.  They had such good and fresh seafood that I didn't want to leave. They had many really good dishes like freshwater prawns sauteed with garlic and scallots. Really good jicama, chinese donuts and celery...(really don't know what this dish is called but it was sooo yummy)

Their dimsum is good too!! They have a very good chicken bun which I wish they serve it here! I would be in dimsum heaven if they did!

I'm soooooo sorry to have to do this but what has happened to the once well known Masa's restaurant? I guess with so many new and interesting restaurants popping up, the old ones are having a bit of a challenge.  Maybe that's why there hasn't been any new reviews for this place since the beginning of June 2011.  Well, after visiting here last week, I have to say the service is still up to par but the food has really gone down hill.  Everyone there is so friendly and helpful that I would really like to give them an extra star for their efforts.  However, the food just didn't cut it.....

First of all, the amuse bouche that was given to us was such a disappointment that we were scared what was on it's way into the courses. They served this rice ball with a slice of raw fish on top but the rice was not even cooked and it was marinated with so much mirin and sugar. Then we had the onaga and it was a bit fishy smelling.  The soup was basically three spoonfuls.  I think they did a good job on the meat part, like their lamb and the squab.  PLEASE....PLEASE...please Masa's chef!! You have to get better since you are such a SF icon!! We don't want to see you disappear!!!
