Loved our dinner at Senia.  We first visited here in 2018 and for some reason just never went back.  I was dining at Per Se in New York and when our waiter found out we were from Hawaii, he smiled and said that Anthony Rush worked at Per Se and now has a restaurant in Hawaii.  Yes, I said "Senia".  Decided to go back to Senia and here we are.  First off the place is right on King Street but the signage is a subdued and difficult to see.  Just remember it is right next door to Pig and Lady.  The interior is beautiful as is Anthony's other restaurant Bar Podmore.  Finishes are first class.  The open kitchen allows diners at the counter to watch the show.  On this night the eight seats were all couples and there was a lot of kissing going on.  Oh...to be young and single again.  Not to worry, I made sure to give my Wife some pecks too.
We started with the Ahi Cigars which come to the table covered.  When uncovered, the smoke fills the air.  Delicious but a little too smokey for me.  My Wife however thought they were great and said she wanted three more orders.  The Bone Marrow blew us away with the portion size and presentation.  The Bone Marrow came with delicious Sweet Hawaiian Rolls, Oxtail Ragout and a very tasty marmalade.  You basically make a sandwich out of all the items and then sprinkle three types of salt on top.  Crazy good and addicting.  Very filling though for me which slowed me down for the remainder of the meal.  The Sea Scallops with Béarnaise were perfect.  Definitely can share this dish with two or three people.  The Triple Smoked Salmon which was delivered by Chef Anthony Rush himself came covered like the Ahi Cigars.  Lifting the lid brought another rush of smoke to the table.  Presentation was beautiful with surprising Waffles, Homemade Pickles, Creme Fraiche and Onion Marmelade.  A lot going on here but when you put it all together with the perfectly smoked Salmon, you have a great taste.  My Wife LOVED the Broccoli too.  Our server Nick was amazing.  Gracious, attentive and knowledgeable.  Already planning a trip back here.
