First off let me say the food here is AMAZING! We thoroughly enjoyed the fresh sushi. However, the service and ambiance are very sub par. Stood and watched the receptionist handle multiple customers after greeting us rather than showing us to our table which shows no personal attention. Took over 15 mins to be greeted by our server and we had to prompt him to request drinks. Tables are very small and restaurant is well lit so doesn’t feel high end. There are many things this place could do to improve but the taste and quality of the food still left me wanting more. It was very good despite the experience of it all!
I had an excellent meal there, the quality of the fish and preparation were exceptional. This is easily one of the best sushi restaurants in Hawaii.
We had an amazing experience at monstera! Our waiter Robert was so informative and fun. We were blown away with how good the sushi was and how fresh everything tasted, so delicious!
Food was okay. Cheaper than the other places. The appetizers were good, entries were so-so. Kid friendly.
While the food was excellent, the service left much to be desired. We did not have a reservation and were treated poorly because of this. We were told to sit and wait so they could see if they could find a table. We sat a long time and has to go check to see if they were going to seat us. I think they forgot about us even though we were sitting near the hostess station. There were many open tables before they decided to give us one. Once we were seated, the waitress who finally came to our table seemed very bothered to be there. We had to ask several times for side plates, spoons and eventually, the rest of the food we ordered. She forgot about half of it. Not acceptable. We are polite and tip well. Not sure why we were treated this way.
We went to Monstera because of the good reviews and were sooo disappointed. The Service was horrible– they kept sending food to the wrong tables, and it took 10 minutes to flag down a waiter to get a spoon for our 4 yr old– they only gave him chopsticks. The food was sub-average Japanese. For the price, we expected outstanding food. We ordered fried whole fish for $68. The fish was dry, and the sauce was too sour. The Age tofu wasn’t silky. The Yaki-udon was just okay. The kids PB&J sushi roll was just weird– wasn’t well thought out at all. It came with rice and 5 pieces of fruit the size of petit peas. Definitely not worth the money.
World class food. World class service. Norio knows what his doing. Keep up the great work.
