Na'au at Chefs & Table landed in the top three of everything we did on the Big Island, and when the whole of Hawai'i is the competition, that is high praise. Chef Brian Hirata put together a Hawaiian-inspired tasting menu that was as thoughtful as it was delicious, with every course telling its own story. The drink pairings were pure magic; each one complimented and gave new dimension to every plate. The room that night included two award-winning chefs who showed up just to eat, which tells you everything about what Chef Hirata is doing here. If you are anywhere near the Big Island, do not let this one slip by. We are already scheming about how to get back.

Mahalo for the uberfabulous vegan dinner! It wasn't just dinner, it was a gathering of compassionate people. I believe we may have made some lifelong friends! Chefs Raven and Connor did an outstanding job of exceeding our expectations. Loved every minute of our dining experience.

I cannot recommend Chef Connar and Christin highly enough! From the moment we booked our private dinner, their professionalism and warmth stood out. Chef Connar is an absolute genius in the kitchen — every single dish was a masterpiece. The flavors were perfectly balanced, creative, and elevated, yet still comforting. The way he combines fresh, high-quality ingredients with beautiful presentation made the entire meal feel like a fine-dining experience in our own home. Christin was incredible as well — her attention to detail, gracious hospitality, and seamless service made the evening feel effortless and special. She anticipated every need and made us feel like true VIPs. We were blown away by the tasting menu they created for our anniversary. The wine pairings were spot-on, the courses flowed beautifully, and every bite had us raving. This was easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. If you’re considering a private chef experience, special event, or intimate dinner, stop looking. Book Chef Connar and Christin immediately — you will not be disappointed. They are truly a dream team! Thank you both for an unforgettable evening! 🙌 Aloha Nui.

The food was of course great, but the background of the ingredients, inspiration for recipes, and stories of the people working is made this a very unique experience.

Doing farm to table dinners on a remote island is especially important. I appreciate the variety that Chef Vitaly put on the table, from the bounty that comes from Big Island. Thanks to Adaptations and Ancient Valley Growers for their contributions to the farm community. I look forward to the next one!

The one sour note was the wine guy. The wine was mediocre and he talk too much. Most of what he said was not relevant (he pontificated about himself) and he disrupted conversation. I would not attend an event if he was involved.
