The subtle flavors of the mahi-mahi are perfectly covered with the light crunch of tempura. But that's not the real star, as amazing as that is. The real star is the pickled ginger aioli, where the pungent ginger and mayo mixes together for a really special kick. Put that on the tempura fish and you'll be absolutely delighted.
