When @WeHeartHawaii suggested that we try The Brilliant Ox for lunch, I was skeptical at first, since a few of my friends gave it unfavorable reviews. However, the food looked so good on social media that I just had to try it.
You need not worry about coming here for lunch without a reservation, because only a couple of tables were occupied at 11:30 am.
We decided to order family style so that we could try a few dishes on the menu.
Okinawan Sweet Potato Croquettes - the lap cheong jam is what makes this dish outstanding!
The Mochiko Chicken Thighs were okay, but nothing special. If you like yuzu, you'll want to get it with the yuzu-black pepper sauce.
The Brilliant Ox Burger was delicious - two four-ounce burgers with american cheese melted between the two patties.
It was messy but oh-so-good!
