The new Hawaii location of the popular Monterey, California restaurant has an expansive menu, with inventive fresh fish specials alongside the fish-and-chips and clam chowder the original restaurant is known for. The owners spent serious time and money renovating the old and funky Ocean View Inn, and the restaurant itself is lovely—lots of koa wood, Hawaiian art, and an open-air floor plan that takes advantage of the ocean view. The food is decent, but may not feel worth the price. However, the wine list is outstanding, and there are frequent bottle specials, so this is a great spot for wine and appetizers with a view. It's also currently the only ocean-view restaurant in town to serve breakfast.
