I have joined the original farm to table Hawaii restaurant group birthed here in my hometown of Waimea 31 years ago. Over the past 3+ years I have been lucky enough to grow our business and now have the opportunity to help the team at all 4 restaurants. Please feel free to stop by and say Aloha!

As the GM of this award winning Plantation Style Cuisine restaurant I led a talented crew of amazing people. We set financial and customer service records each year using my casual elegance style of Aloha service. Careful P&L management, labor mindfulness and customer service allowed us to capture the Best Hawaiian Regional Cuisine award 3 years running while being recognized by Fairmont as the top Hotel in 2015. Smiles, high fives and teamwork abound at this beautiful restaurant!
