Reviews
Chefs Wade Ueoka and Michelle Karr-Ueoka bring incredible talent and heart to everything they serve, from bold, comforting plates to standout sweets. MW is the perfect mix of local tradition and modern flair. We left completely satisfied and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!
Crab cakes – I ordered the crab cakes, and it was excellent. It’s not like those usual crab cakes where it filled with battered and have more starch than crab meat. This one is all crab meat inside. My wife ended up ate 2/3 of them.
Mochi salad with crispy chicken skin – I don’t like salad but I thought I tried. The end result was I finished 70% of the salad because it was delectable. The dressing was spicy, but the persimmon sliced and the tomatoes with the greens were just perfect. I never thought I could like a salad that much.
Short ribs – The meat fell off the bone… Well, there was no bone but it’s definitely tender. Potatoes were nicely crisp and the foie gras was nicely seared.
Mochi crusted kampachi – Surprisingly crunchy fish. Very fresh. This is one fine dine dish. Impressive.
Strawberry shaved ice – It’s not really shaved ice, it’s more like shaved strawberries and the coconut tapioca was very good.
So coconut-y.
This is one satisfied fine dine experience. Very impressed that you find something with this quality in Hawai’i.
Service is quick usually, and the staff are very knowledgeable. My only negatives are that it can be rather loud when it’s busy, and some tables are a bit chilly sometimes.
Valet parking is available, and be sure to check out the dealership’s display of Michael Schumacher’s Ferrari F1 car in the lobby!
If you are driving or getting a ride, follow directions given by the restaurant when you make the reservation, follow the signs to the 2nd floor parking garage. Alternatively, if you are on foot/dropped off on the block, you can get to the restaurant by going into Artizen and going up the glass walled staircase.
I did the chef’s tasting menu, and every course was delicious. My favorite was the opening appetizer, which contained caviar and egg. Their main specialty was the mochi kanpachi, and I really enjoyed it too!
For cocktails, I had the Georgia O’Keefe and asked why it was named after a haole woman. Nomenclature wise, their other cocktail Lychee Hoo was actually a play on local culture, which made more sense. The staff asked around for me, but no one knew why.
“Just use your imagination”, the bartender said. “Like Georgia O’Keefe did.”
I had so much fun at MW.
