In Short
Roy Yamaguchi opened his first restaurant in 1988 in Honolulu, Hawaii, blending European cooking techniques with locally produced ingredients and Asian spices. Today, his Hawaiian-fusion cuisine is served in a sophisticated atmosphere with dark woods, Asian accents and contemporary, island-inspired art. In addition to "Roy's classics" like Hawaiian-style misoyaki butterfish and the popular melting hot chocolate souffle, each location offers daily specials prepared by the local chef, all of whom are trained personally by Roy.

Just had the worst dining experience ever. I would NOT RECOMMEND this place. To the point; its overprices. save your money and go elsewhwre. 30 dollar plates. first, i made reservations at 9:30p, didn't get seated until 9:50p. then i ordered the Macadamia crusted Mahi Mahi and asked for well done well cooked. once served it came medium; so they took it back. they must of made a whole new plate cause it took 20 min for me to get my food back. total 40 min for my plate of food. Also they were supposed to bring a dessert with song for my wife who graduated. they said they would send out a dessert with candle and sing when i reserved two nights ago. They didnt sing. no dessert was brought out. Forget this place. If you don't want to loose your cool, don't visit this place. I warned you. Best thing about this place is, . . nothing!
Pros: None i can think of
Cons: Reservations. Staff. Service. promptness to visit table by wait staff. Management.

I went before a Laker game and sat at the bar where we got a good stiff drink and then started ordering sushi which wasn't the best I ever had but i give it a solid 8.5 to 9. The service was very good and the Mahi Mahi was great.
Pros: location
Cons: parking
