Epic Hotel's eco-friendly reputation began in 1985 and continues with its 16th floor restaurant, Area 31.

Grass Skirt Grill specializes in fish burgers that forgo the beef but are still packed with “great grill flavor,” Rachael says. Her pick is the Hebi Burger made with lean white fish and served with a side of sesame mayo. Also try the fresh catch of the day or a crisp salad with papaya seed dressing.
