Amazing restaurant and experience, highly recommend if you can get a reservation. Imaginative cuisine flawlessly executed, every dish spot on in terms of flavor and balance. The bar was accommodating and able to pull off riffs on classic island cocktails, and happily helped make the non-alcoholic spritzers a bit sweeter to suit our tween childrens' palates. Certainly the best meal we've had on Oahu and have our kids begging to go back...
WOW. That’s the only word I could think of when eating the incredible dishes at this restaurant. The food here is just on a different level. Even though a couple of the dishes I wanted to try were sold out, the dishes I did order were so delicious. Haven’t had a dining experience like this since I was in Italy. A MUST TRY when on Oahu. Just spectacular. 11/10
Great fine dining atmosphere. They are not doing their standard tasting menu at this time because of COVID but are offering items a la carte.
The good: ahi tuna cigars, duck and foie gras terrine with excellent crusty sourdough, charred broccoli side, and the green soursop chiffon cake dessert.
The meh: beignets, lions mane mushrooms, butternut squash agnolotti, scallops, and the salmon. The theme throughout all of these dishes was excessive sweetness. Granted, the ingredients naturally lend sweetness to these dishes but unfortunately, it felt overpowering. The addition of other ingredients (e.g cranberries with the agnolotti and fennel with the scallops) simply did not work and detracted from the main focus.
Ironically, the mango coconut tart was not sweet enough and lacked flavor. The soursop dessert was executed well - definitely recommend this.
Presentation was stellar.
Impeccable. Superb. Exquisite. These are not words I’ve ever used to describe a restaurant and truly this was the best meal I’ve eaten in my entire life. Hands down. This restaurant should be on every top 10 list in HawaiI and the greater United States. Not only are the dishes truly a culinary masterpiece but the service is incredible. The wait staff opens the bathroom door for you when you walk up to go to the bathroom. When my partner used his napkin to wipe off some brown sauce, someone showed up next to our table immediately to offer him a new one. The wait staff is kind and polite and answers all and any questions. The dishes come out in a very timely, but not too rushed fashion.
My partner and I went for our 2 yr anniversary and I couldn’t imagine a more amazing evening. The restaurant greeted us with a card at our table and views right into the kitchen where we could see everything they were doing. We ordered the 007 and the Freddie for drinks, which both had incredible flavors. For food, we ordered the Smoked Ahi Cigars, the Beignets, the Citrus Cured Hamachi, the Sea Scallops, Potato Gnocchi, and sides of the marinated mushrooms, and the Spaëtzle. Everything tasted amazing. I’m not going to go into it more because you must go try it yourself. We didn’t get dessert as we were too full, but even then our waitress brought us glasses of champagne to celebrate. I can’t emphasize enough that if you are visiting Oahu, you MUST go here. Truly an experience I will remember for a lifetime. I would come back to Oahu just for this restaurant alone. Thank you again Senia!
Excellent fine dining restaurant!! We ordered the 007 cocktail, smoked ahi cigars, beignets, roasted bone marrow, Maine sea scallops and citrus cured hamachi. Everything was delicious and the service was superb!! Highly recommend!
Had the most amazing birthday dinner at senia! The food was outstanding. Our favorites were the salmon (to share), the scallops and the house roll. But everything we ordered was delicious.
I only have one complaint: they use plastic straws for their drinks. For a nice place like this and given how bad they are for the environment, that seemed quite surprising.

One of my favorite places on Island. Been coming here since they opened and every dish has been so well flavored, balanced, exquisitely prepared. You can see and taste all the thought and preparation goes into each component of each dish.
