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.

There were some dishes I loved at Senia and some that disappointed. Overall the dinner and service was good. Not sure if I would run back here again for dinner but maybe will try for lunch one day. We were seated in a small booth separated from the main dining room and looking at the legs of patrons sitting at the counter. Could peer over the counter a bit to see the kitchen staff working which was interesting. The beginning of the meal blew my mind. Ahi Tuna on a buttery Brioche. Incredible flavor and delicious. The Poke Crackers were also delicious. With these two dishes down I thought I had found a favorite new restaurant. Then came the Chicken Liver Mousse. It smelled horrible and tasted even worse. Not one of us could eat more than a small bite of this and it was given back to the waitress 98% untouched. My girls did however eat all the toast that came with the Mousse. This was one of the worst tasting dishes on this blog this year and one of the worst ever. The BBQ Beets with Avocado got the meal back on track. We all liked this dish and would order it again and again. The Hamachi Tataki looked pretty cool and was fun to open and see what was inside. The Hamachi however smelled and tasted fishy. I could only eat one bite but the Wife finished it all. The Sweet Corn Ravioli was fantastic. A dish that I would definitely order again. The Papardelle with Duck Ragu was also delicoius. My Daughter was sold on the Tomahawk Steak Special because it came with Onion Rings. Problem is the Steak arrived with no Onion Rings. We inquired with the server and in a few minutes the coolest presentation of Onion Rings arrived. The Onion Rings were FANTASTIC! One of the best parts of the meal. The Steak was good too but by the time it came we were so full from all of the other dishes that we could barely put a dent in it. Ended up taking it home. Lots of good things here and can really tell the Chef cares about what goes on his plates. Just a few things we did not like out of many that we did like.
