“First time eating here…. Omg 10 stars A+++++ WILL BE BACK EVERY TIME“

“The staff are wonderful and my twins 👯‍♀️ got to order pizzas to bake at home 🏠 it made them really happy“

“Sunset Lanai ia a great bar with an awrsomr view. They have a really nice bar area and outdoor patio that overlooks pearl harbor. The bar tender was very friendly and prompt. The wings were great, just crispy enough. The fries were really good, seasoned well, and crispy to perfection. Defineftly would go back.

This place is on post.“

“We had mixed feelings after dinning here last night. Ambiance and service were very good. Enjoyed being at the counter and watching the kitchen action. Food: some dishes had extreme sweetness to them which was overpowering fresh ingredients: kampachi very sweet sauce, salad dressing also very sweet, Brussels sprouts also tasted more like dessert. Also, market salad had way too many ingredients that did not go well together. More is not always better. Corn fritters and venison tartar were great. Angolloti pasta great but also had unnecessary sweetness to it. Gnocchi were spot on. If not for such over the top use of sweetness in many of the dishes we had, every one would have been great.“

“Outside table for one at lunch time. Korean barbecue chicken sandwich. Excellent, delicious and messie to eat. I would order again.“

“We loved both the food and the wine and the service. The place is gorgeous too. We had a wonderful time.“

“We celebrated a big anniversary at Pai and WOW - they made it extra special. We did the four course menu with wine pairings. The service was top notch. The food was inspired, creative, delicious, and locally sourced. Though the portions of each dish looked small, it was more than enough food and so delicious you wanted to eat every bite! The wine pairings were spot on, absolutely perfect with our chosen courses. The space has such a lovely vibe - clean and modern, but comfortable and well appointed. There really isn't another dining experience quite like this on the island. Justine and Kevin have created such a beautiful place with incredible food and service. Pai is definitely a must-try restaurant. We will definitely be back.“

“We had a really good experience at Yard House at Waikiki Beach Walk. The food was solid, not over-the-top amazing, but definitely tasty and worth coming back for. We ordered the carnivore pizza, orange chicken, crispy Brussels sprouts, and a few drinks, and everything hit the spot. The atmosphere was lively and fun, and service was friendly without feeling rushed. A great casual option in Waikiki when you want a reliable meal and good drinks.“

“Nice place for breakfast. They have delicious food and friendly service. The prices are a bit higher than in other places, but there is no line here. Portion size is big, so we shared. I liked the papaya boat with granola and berries a lot!“

“Amazing , delicious, out of this world“

“As usual, the Tasting Experience menu option was outstanding! Perfectly paired with uniquely concocted libations of botanicals, fruits, and spirits, each course was a delightful original experience we savored and wished would never end. The impeccable service continues to exemplify the highest standard of how dining out should be — timely, personable, educative and mutually respectful. Hats off again to Head chef Ki Chung and his perfectly choreographed staff, shout out to Jason and Jared!“

“My husband was in search of some good fish in Waikiki. We stumbled upon this place and decided to give it a try. I’m not a seafood person so I got the chicken pasta and he tried snapper for the first time. Both of us were blown away by how tasty everything was. The portions were huge too! Out of all the places we had been to during our trip, this place is at the top. Even as a non fish eater, I loved it! There can be a wait, but it is well worth it. Try it, you’ll love it.“

“Great atmosphere, really good food, outstanding staff!“

“Lovely people work there!“

“We were fortunate to grab seats at the bar before a show at the Blaisdell. Beautiful atmosphere, very attentive server/bartender (Kalei), amazing food options and lovely hand mixed cocktails. We were pleasantly surprised and will return!“

“The taste of the food was so amazing and the service was outstanding. The price for what we ordered was so so so low! I could not believe it when I received the check! Hawaiian pancakes are a must!“

“Amazing dinner and friendly staff from bar to dining room! Our must every time we visit Oahu!“

“Absolutely our best meal in Hawaii. The right choice to celebrate a special occasion. Our experience was so wonderful, food, wine, atmosphere all made for the best evening. Our server, Julian was absolutely top notch, extremely friendly, attentive, and was just so happy to engage ensuring the celebration was more than we expected. Kudos he deserves it. Highly recommend this place. Will definitely be back.“

“Great food ! Our server Elaine was exceptional!“

“Great atmosphere great food“

“We enjoyed the amazing food and aesthetic here! 10/10 recommend.“

“Just the best food, staff. Always happy. Always tasty dishes. Their wine dinners are fun. Salmon’s always perfect. A gnocchi & beef dish was especially tasty.“

“Service was outstanding. Drinks were excellent. Slightly disappointed with the food. Its not what i remember from a year ago when i last ate here. Its still good but not as good as before. I know the light is dim for the ambiance, but it could be lit just a notch more or have lights on the table. Noise is as you would expect in a restaurant with concrete floors and no buffer to absorb sound. Overall it was good. Service always makes a difference.“

“Delicous, made to order, Vegan meals. Quiet location with a vast menu. Server very polite, suggesting food items while explaining others.

Broccoli, Tofu, Sicilian Chicken Pasta, Lemongrass Tofu, Strawberry Smoothie, Avocado/Banana Smoothie. Everything was flavorful, walked away full. The parking lot is small, however there is parking options near by.“

“Food is fresh healthy & onolicious👍🏻👍🏻 The brisket musubi & brisket Katsu bomb👍🏻👍🏻“

“While visiting Hawaii my wife and I decided to try this place based on all the previous suggestions and the views. Upon walking in we were immediately greeted and told us it would be a short wait and it was. The decor was beautiful and there was a live musician playing the acoustic guitar on the side which gave the place a very relaxing vibe. We were lucky enough to get a balcony table. I’d suggest this so you can have a spectacular view of the ocean and the sunset. My wife and enjoyed the warm bread brought to the table served with this delicious strawberry butter. It wasn’t very heavy either. The drinks were really good as well. Our server (actually all of them) Tony was extremely good. He came and checked on us and made sure everything was good with us. When I go back I will definitely look for him. If you’re interested in something relaxing with a classy vibe. I recommend this place.“

“My Friend and I ordered corn beef hash. DA Bes in town. Friend wanted his eggs soft scrambled. Our waitress, Rhea, knew exactly how it's made as many establishments overcook them. She said she would inform the cook. They were served exactly as my friend, Bob, wanted. Great service even with a full house. We will become regulars for sure!!!!!“

“An outstanding dining experience. The reservations were easy, the staff was courteous and attentive, the presentation was exceptional and the food was absolutely delicious, all at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend The Pearl at Leeward Community College.“

“I'd never been to this establishment before and was surprised at how great it was! There's a nice variety of dishes to choose from on their manu, the service is attentive & friendly, their prices are reasonable, and there's ample free parking. If you go for dinner the sunset views are spectacular! On certain evenings they have local musical groups entertaining diners as well (it can get loud, so request outside dining if you prefer a quieter setting), and membership isn't required for dining. I highly recommend enjoying a lunch or dinner here!“

“The Galley is very clean. Great atmosphere. The food is great. Eggs made to order. Fresh cut fruit daily as well as the salad bar is fresh as well. Great healthy drink choices. Always worth a visit.“

“The food, service and value is REALLY good!“

“this place is a Crazy Rich Asian vibe and i love it. Chef Anthony and his crew were absolutely phenomenal. A family style, off-menu 9 dish dinner was delicious. i was full by dish 7 and barely had enough room for dish 9(desert).

BTW, this place is PERFECT for private events!“

“Great wine pairing dinners!!!!! And always a fabulous sunset. What more could you want these days?“

“Good food & entertainment“

“Great Birthday Dinner, the ambiance was excellent. The food was great and so was the service, thank you Stage ❤️ it“

“Stopped by LBLE bar twice on our NYE trip to Waikiki.

The 1st time, we stopped by for a drink, waiting for our room. We were able to catch the Saturday afternoon football game on the huge TV, grab HH drinks and some lau lau nachos.

The 2nd visit, we went to watch the week 18 49ers vs Seahawks game, we ordered HH drinks and was able to order from Blake's secret menu! Blake went out of his way to make us a rootbeer float.

The great service from Blake the bartender is what drove us to come back for a 2nd visit. We enjoyed our time spent in LBLE Lounge and will definitely visit again when we are in the area. Shout out to Blake for making our visit enjoyable.

We definitely recommend the Guava cooler and the secret menu item rootbeer float!“

“We ate at the bar since they were so busy. The bartenders were attentive and quick. The pink pancakes surprised us! We thought they would be atypical but found out they were scrumptious!! The coffee was actually quite good as well - Kona blend.“

“there’s 5 palm trees at paradise palms (I counted with great difficulty) but the food is great for a quick pick up in between classes. don’t expect michelin stars here.

there’s construction to the south of this place as of writing (Oct 2025) so beware of the noise.“

“It was for work Christmas party. Took a bit of time for the food to come. One waitress who had to help twenty people. We sat on the lanai which had a good breeze so it was not really hot.

They had tarps/tents up so it may be for the Saturday evening event. The restaurant m/club house is open to the public - located on Army (golf) property.“
