Hula Restaurant:
If you still want the boardwalk experience with a different food palate, try Hula Restaurant, located at 940 Boardwalk. Their meals are so delicious; my mouth is watering just by writing about them! My personal favorites are coconut shrimp, salmon teriyaki, and their grilled ahi. All entrees are served with sticky rice and a spring mix. FYI- their sticky rice alone is enough to make you want to keep coming back! Make sure you try out Hula Restaurant this summer!
