PACIFIC'O | Chocolate Decadence Cake

At Pacific'o, you'll find contemporary island cuisine prepared with the freshest island ingredients: the fish is caught daily and organic fruits and vegetables are picked at their own O'o Farms.  Exotic flavors are enhanced by the stunning oceanside setting, and are served with a unique island flare.   

This is the perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely lunch or a romantic dinner while the sun sets.  With several award winning dishes on the menu, there are options for every palate.  The Won Ton appetizer and the Hapa Hapa Tempura are among my personal favorites, and you can't go wrong with the Bling Bling (steak and lobster).
