    Ulu is a sushi restaurant that’s part of the Four Seasons Resort in Hualalai on the Big Island of Hawaii. We had incredibly fresh seafood, delicious sushi and the best chocolate soufflé on the island. And you can’t beat that amazing sunset view. #fyp #fypage #fourseasons #resort #restaurant #foodreview #foodie #hawaii #hawaiianfood #restuarantsinhawaii #sushi #dinehawaii #vacationfood #luxury #finedining #bigislandfood

    Parking area was a little confusing and felt a little odd as it was where the employees park and there’s a lot of what it seems to be trash or random things, however, once you walk down to the restaurant the ambiance completely changed. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff was very pleasant and friendly. The food and drinks were magnificent. Highly recommend it for a romantic dinner while enjoying the beautiful sunset.

    The ambiance and the location of the restaurant is top tier. However, the food was less than mediocre. The best item was the table side poke, other entree dishes were a disappointment.

    A truly spectacular Restaurant, our Table was right on the Walk, a stones through from the Water. The Surf is wonderful to listen to and the Four Seasons lights it up, giving it a magical appearance. Our Waiter was great and they were very accommodating for my Wife’s Gluten free needs. The Food was excellent, with a number of good choices. We have gone there a few times over the last 20 years and loved it every time.
