Goen is always our go to spot for my birthday each year. I just love how much they emphasize remembering us when we go a few times a year , but mostly on my birthday. Our server Jacob went above & beyond to make me feel so warm. the spicy lilikoi spritzer was insanely delicious. Food wise, I was surprised to see how small the portions have become this year, yet the service, ambiance and taste remains top tier. The burrata caprese salad is always my dinner plate choice & the cheese was half the size it usually is. Even the Brussels appetizer is half the size. The female manager checked on us multiple times. We enjoyed our reservation & stayed way long after we paid our bill to continue catching up & they didnt mind at all. Thats a great feeling. Mahalo, Goen.
