A new waiter eventually took over our table - I think that we had a newbie. Having worked my way through college waiting tables and bartending, I am not one to stiff, much to my husband's disagreement...He(they) got the standard 15%, which was a pretty good amount, but I normally leave 20 - 25%. It was just disappointing because we were very excited about going there after the reviews that I had read on various sites. The next night we went to our favorite place in Honolulu, Michel's, and La Mer was but a memory...
