Born in El Paso, Texas, and raised in Juarez, Mexico, Gloria cites her mother as her biggest inspiration for her enthusiasm in the culinary arts – “she always cooked with so much love.”

The Cioppino and Prime rib were excellent. Service was enthusiastic and fantastic. Excellent restaurant though difficult to find the entrance- basically located between two buildings.

Great spot for a casual meal. The new menu from chef Lance Kosaka offers elevated food offerings from the prior menu. Would love to see the korean chicken and Mac salad sliders from chef Lance's prior stop.

Innovative yet comforting menu that deserves to be discovered, especially for lunch. Thoroughly enjoyed bartender Kalei's recommendation of the Chinese Chicken Salad with Five Spice Dressing, and Chocolate Temptation with Chocolate and Hazelnut Crunch layers and raspberry sauce. Paired with the signature Strawberry Guava Mimosa, this was a fantastic and fresh-testing meal. Next time maybe I'll be bold and try the Charcoal Pancakes. Located in Dukes Lane Market and Eatery, it is just steps from the high energy activity of Waikiki but feels like a secluded oasis. One of my go-to stops on every trip.
