From the team behind the hotspots Lucky Belly and the Tchin Tchin! Bar comes this casual approach to fine dining. Snuggle into this Honolulu Chinatown staple, below exposed brick walls and windows sheeting in soft light. Start with a playful craft cocktail like a peanut-infused Jim Beam Black with honey, angostura bitters, and Banane du Brésil. Then start exploring the seasonal menu, which can romp from garlic tuna spread to burrata with crisp artichokes and the Tavern Chop, a mélange of bacon, bay shrimp, avocado, radicchio, heart of palm, and corn sliced off the cob. Living up to the establishment’s name, the chefs do meat right, from the house-cured lamb-bacon sandwich to the delicious smoked prime rib dip.
