Frommer's Review

The former Formal Dining Room has been revamped under the Four Seasons management and has a new menu. However, they did retain the relaxing setting, with a roaring fire, bountiful sprays of orchids, sienna-colored walls, and a team of waitstaff serving in hushed voices. The menu highlights American favorites. The appetizers are so tempting, you could make a meal from the variety of choices: seared diver scallops with cauliflower purée, foie gras torchon with a toasted brioche with roasted pineapple and vanilla compote, and lava-rock-seared Lanai venison. The entrees vary according to the season; when I dined here, the menu included Maui lavender-honey roasted duck breast, mustard-and-herb-roasted rack of lamb, and a buttered poached lobster from the Big Island. The service is impeccable, the atmosphere relaxing. But don't forget your platinum credit card -- you'll need it.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
