The deets

Stripsteak, the chic, modern steakhouse from Michelin-starred chef Michael Mina, is one of the most popular restaurants at International Market Place. On a recent weeknight it was completely full of locals and visitors enjoying steak dinners.

But come before 6 p.m. for the best-kept secret: the new Sunset Supper, a two-course tasting menu that starts with a sizable spicy ahi sushi hand roll and then wows you with a 12-ounce New York strip steak accompanied by tasty duck fat fries and garlic spinach. The steak is juicy, buttery, and delicious, just what I've come to expect from Stripsteak .

New executive chef Jamie Zager was cooking at Mina's PABU Boston when Mina called him to Hawaii in December.

A great add-on if you split a Sunset Supper with a friend: Salmon, hamachi or ahi nigiri ($4 apiece during happy hour) or spicy tuna or negihama hand rolls ($8, not pictured).

Stripsteak's new chocolate souffle ($12) with a warm chocolatey center is a classic ending to a happy hour that made us smile.

Happy hour drinks range from beers ($4), house wines ($6), sake ($7) and cocktails ($7) to beer and a shot ($8.08).

PEAR-fect ($16, a smoky pear cocktail) and Sun's Out Rum's Out ($15, a fun drink with pineapple, orange and coconut foam) aren't on the happy hour menu, but $7 cocktails are.
