"Nico’s Pier 38 and Fish Market are two operations in one. During the day, the fish market makes some of the freshest sashimi platters and poke, plus an array of smoked fish, which might include monchong or opah, and our favorite slice of pumpkin crunch cake. Dinner means live music, surf and turf featuring fat, luscious deep water shrimp, and seating by the water—sounds like a typical evening in Honolulu, except this isn’t Waikiki, but the industrial harbor, right next to the fish auction. If you have to pick only one experience, prioritize the fish market—there’s basically no better beach or hiking snack." - Martha Cheng
