It's been awhile since I blogged about Waolani Windows at Oahu Country Club. The Club has been undergoing some major employee and facilities overhaul which in my opinion have been very positive. New management is placing a focus on the Members, their experience, employees and improving food and beverage. Waolani Windows is the Club's signature fine dining venue with great food, service and views. This place rivals any fine dining restaurant in Honolulu and is a perfect place for family, business and friends. On this visit we entertained one of my Wife's friends visiting Hawaii for the first time. Of course I started my meal with some bubbles which somehow always make food and conversation better. First up was the Sashimi which was so fresh and delicious. Gone was the stupid gold leaf that a previous Chef added to the dish. I just don't want to pay for or eat gold leaf on my food. Next up was Lobster Corn Dogs. Wow...these were so good I could have eaten a dozen. Lobster Tails coated like a Hot Dog and served with Mustard. Yummy...I want them now!

So good and kind of fun to enjoy Lobster on a stick. The Charred Spanish Octopus delivered on presentation and flavors. Loved this dish too. Next up was the Roasted Beet Salad which we always order here. The Beets are so sweet and delicious. Love this salad but never can eat all the Goat Cheese on the plate. We love the Caesar Salad but it was missing the poached egg that the old chef placed on top. Still good but we wanted the egg back on the salad. The table shared the Braised Short Rib Ravioli and it was amazing. So delicious. Everyone loved this dish and I could have eaten the entire plate alone. Definitely will order this again. Works great as an appetizer for table.

The Ginger Crusted Onaga and Pan Seared Kona Kampachi were both excellent and the Steak and Lobster knocked the socks of my Wife and her friend. Presentation and flavors were fantastic. Finished our meal with the Spumoni Ice Cream Pie. One of my favorites desserts ever. Just love this ice cream and the chocolate crust. This dinner was great. Delivered on every level. Love Waolani Windows!
