ROCK'N FISH signature dishes, sure to appeal to downtown diners before or after a cultural or sporting event, or as a respite from a demanding workday, include tender Kapalua Rib-eye beef which is hand cut, then treated to 72 hours in a pineapple-soy marinade before being served with “Hibachi” teriyaki sauce for a taste of the islands.

Other favorites: hot-and-sweet New Orleans BBQ Shrimp sautéed in a jazzy mélange of bell pepper, onion, tomato, mushroom and lemon, served over sticky rice, and Oak-Grilled Artichoke, the subtle flavors deepened with roasted-garlic aoli. Whimsical martinis, an extensive beer and wine-list, and potent Navy Grog complement the dining experience, whether celebrating an intimate moment or a resounding Lakers’ victory.
