Brownie Sundae

I was a little dissapointed that the Pot Stickers did not have more flavor. They were ok but not extra special. I didnt like the sauce on the sticky wings - it was too sweet. I dont think I tried the crab cakes.

The entrees were better. The mashed potatoes were really thick and buttery, the steak was cooked nicely but it wasnt as good as the Narcoosees filet. The Scallops were perfectly cooked and delicious. Pan asian pasta was excellent.

Desserts weer excellent too. Loved the presentation and the Kilauea Torte was scrumptious, but needed a dollop of ice cream to soften the rich flavor. Brownie sundaes were good.

Another great meal, and very efficient service. Would eat here again. Large portions too. The kilauea Torte is much larger than it seems on the photos!

We got the best drink there: it was called "Sand in Your Pants" (or something similar) and it was a combination of Pina Colada and Strawbery Daquiri swirled together. Our's was the non-alcoholic version and it was so yummy!

Thanks for the review. We ate at Kona on our last trip and were not that impressed with it. Service was not that good and the food was just ok. I will say that the desserts were the best though.

If you look at all these DIS Forums, you will see that every single rest has positive and negative comments, so you can't really go by what people say just try for yourself....and remember some people are just never satisfied and will always criticize everything...

Thanks for the review. I just made reservations here for June and am happy to hear that you like it.

Can I ask you how long your meal took?
