Had a great experience here. The staff were friendly, flexible, and accommodating with our party, which had to reschedule and adjust group size a few times.

Was recommended by hotel staff Song, and was a bit disappointed by the food. The ingredients were fresh but the flavoring of the sauces were just not good, which was a shame!

Went to Forc and was very excited to try the steak, but was not as impressed by the steak as we were hoping. The sides and appetizers definitely stole the show! I’d go back for happy hour and apps without hesitation.

I do not think I would give this place a second try, overall the food was okay and service subpar at times.

This is one of the best dining experiences I have had in a long time. I had an amazing steak cooked to perfection. My boyfriend had the miso fish. He can’t stop talking about how he wants to eat that meal all the time. Service was warm and sincere. Chef Allen is a fantastic human supporting eating local. The atmosphere was relaxed yet you felt you were eating the best of the elevated ranch style dining. Forc is everything Big Island cuisine is meant to be. So fantastic to see it come to life.

My wife and I both had steak. I had the New York, salt and pepper only, and she had the Ribeye, with mushrooms and cabernet. I just had a feeling the New York was going to be amazing and, oh boy, it did not disappoint.

The food tasted great! I loved the bone marrow butter with the bread. I wish they had the bone marrow available to order. The dishes were presented exquisitely. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant as well. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because it took over 30min to get our food and they were out of the bone marrow. I’d come back to eat again!

Get a reservation and we’re seated promptly. We got a warm welcome for our anniversary celebration and got a few great cocktails. The mushroom poke was crazy flavorful and the poi had fresh tomatoes and some broth for a good twist. The kicker was the best ahi sashimi I have ever had. Gnocchi was great too.
