Comments: My wife and I saw Sam Choy's on our way to Hilo Hattie's store on Nimitz Highway during our recent vacation in Honolulu. I was researching Hawaiian cookbooks on Amazon later that day and saw that Sam Choy had one of the most highly rated ones. So we decided to visit the restaurant, and we're glad we did. Both of us had versions of the mahi mahi sauteed with shitake mushroom cream sauce and fried rice. The fish and sauce were wonderful and the fried rice was the best I've ever had. Our server, Sinh, was attentive and professional. I also tried one of Sam Choy's brews -- the Hefeweizen -- and it was great. We're going to buy Sam Choy's book with the hope that we can recreate some of these dishes when we get home.
