   Staff and food were top notch. Noise level was high due to hardscape flooring and decor. We felt that was a detractor.

   So very difficult to rate. Service was excellent. Salad was a 10/10 however my lobster on my gnocchi was basically raw. Slight cooked on the outside but raw internal. I returned it, received an apology and it was removed from the bill. So a huge error but was corrected. Just did not except such a big error and is the reason for my lower review. I realize things happen and would probably go back at another time.

   Our service was great. Appetizers were good. Entrees passable. We ordered a very nice bottle of wine and the restaurant has a nice wine list. Unfortunately the wine glasses were dollar store wine glasses. For a restaurant that wants to be high end, please invest in proper wine glasses. Overall experience was underwhelming.

   Aloha Elizabeth and mahalo for the feedback, we do intend to adjust appropriately. We have a change to the wine glass to begin May and I think you will be pleased. Please feel free to reach out anytime, we would relish an opportunity to improve upon your experience. Mahalo! Koa Kea Food and Beverage Team (808) 742-4200

    Nice space and very friendly service. I was disappointed in that the online menu was different than the menu presented to us. Evidently the menu changed a few weeks ago and the online version did not get updated.

Your feedback is invaluable, and we will make sure to update the online menu to reflect the latest changes. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Red Salt soon for a seamless experience. Mahalo, Ko'a Kea Food & Beverage Team
