 Chef Mavro not only features the finest ingredients Hawaii has to offer, but also supplements them with luxurious imported items like caviar and fresh truffles from France. Thanks to the formidable skills of chef-owner George Mavrothalassitis, the results of this sublime culinary marriage are always elegant and intriguing. Guests can choose from three-, four- and six-course menus, or opt for the complete experience with the Grand Degustation, which offers tasting portions of every dish. Chef Mavrothalassitis draws inspiration from the bounty of Hawaii's ocean and land. Selections may include grilled diver scallop with cauliflower purée and florets, and a sauce of preserved lemon and fines herbes; Keahole lobster risotto; and deconstructed “boeuf bourguignon” of certified Angus short rib, and carrots, parsnips and Swiss chard étuvée. The menus evolve according to the time of year, but the malasadas are a mainstay. These Portuguese donuts --- lilikoi, apple li hing mui and azuki bean --- arrive with Hawaiian vanilla ice cream and lilikoi coulis. Pastry chef Lynette Pflueger also prepares creations such as a Valrhona chocolate crémeux with pomegranate sauce and acai sorbet. We can't tell you exactly what you might eat, but we can assure you it will be thoughtfully created and well executed. Complementing your meal with Doug Johnson’s wine pairings is highly recommended. Service is professional but never stuffy and is warmly hospitable as befits a restaurant which attracts serious gourmands of all ages and from all walks of life. You are as likely to see a young couple in casual attire who saved their pennies to dine here as a well-coiffed doyenne of Honolulu society. They all come for one reason: to celebrate culinary excellence from the hands of a master chef and his dedicated team.
