You've got to try their pork belly loco moco! It's a twist on a Hawaii favorite and isn't on the menu or always available. Happy hour is Monday-Friday until 7pm, $2 beer specials.

If you're going during the weekend it gets packed. Reservations are recommended, but you could still have a wait. We suggest going to the bar and ordering a steak plate. It's a Spencer steak and French bread cut into bite size pieces; perfect after a day of wine tasting.

It's a little bit of a drive, but the view as you crest the hill to the beah is awesome. There is nothing out there but a camp ground with a little store and a burger stand. If you're going to make the drive, make sure you order a Jalama burger and a cold beer. It does get windy out there, so make sure to pack a jacket. There is a fee to enter the park, but if you let the attendant know you are there to eat, they will give you a pass for an hour.
