I recently dined at the Food Company Cafe - a restaurant that my friend Sean constantly raves about.
First things first - do not get the Food Company Cafe mixed up with it's neighbor,
The Food Company Restaurant.
Both eateries fall under the same parent company, but the Food Company Restaurant serves local-style plate lunch fare, whereas the Food Company Cafe is where Chef Jason Kiyota creates exquisite dishes using local and high-quality ingredients for dinner.

Chef treated us to a variety of dishes to start with, and my faves included the Prawns served with a Cognac Garlic Butter that was just divine, as well as Kona Abalone, served Escargot-style, and the Roasted Brussels (a special of the evening).
Even though I was already quite full from all of the starters, I ate my entire dish of Langoustine and Wild Mushroom Risotto. Kahuku corn gave it a nice texture, and it was very well-balanced. So delicious!
And yes, by the time I ate my entire entree, I was stuffed, but there's always room for dessert!

I loved the Flourless Chocolate Cake! It was so decadent!
It was a lovely dinner, and I'm already eager to go back!
