Lobster King

For years we've driven past and always wondered, but never take the plunge, until now. We had an absolutely amazing dinner here. I made sure to call 24hrs in advance to order their specialty, roasted squab, since we were feeling adventurous. Da pigeon (aka squab) was mean!

It’s casual, family-style dining at its finest, where the plates are huge and the flavors are bold

one of the best restaurants! the service was amazing! lobsters and abalones are very fresh! they're so generous that they even gave us shrimps for free! the price is also not expensive!

One of the best Chinese food we’ve had in Oahu! Love the fish, abalone, crab soup and the chicken. The staff there are super friendly :)
