2.0 of 5 stars. What a bad experience. I went to Hawaii on vacation and ate at AW based on all these good reviews on Yelp. Strike 1--we made reservations ahead of time and still waited 30min when we got there. Strike…

5.0 of 5 stars. Alan Wong is a perfectionist and he does not hessitate to throw a complete dinner out. I have seen him return or throw a complete dinner in the trash if it doesn't meet his standards. The food at Alan…

5.0 of 5 stars. Simply Delicious!!! The best restaurant meal I can recall having! The Dinner alone was worth the trip to Hawaii. Only one suggestion: Make your reservations 7-10 days in advance.
