Restaurants in Honolulu

“These guys take creative to a whole new level! Well done!”

“My favorite panang curry on island! Attentive staff and fun atmosphere.”

“Very good food.”

“Delicious malsadas. Very crowded. It was a little slow because they make the malsadas when you order. Definitely try the original!”

“I am a Miami to Alaska transplant and seek out great Cuban food and cafe’ whenever I travel. Castro’s is the real deal!! The Cuban Cafe’ is spot on and the French Toast with the Rum Sauce is off the charts!! Enough food to feed two! The owner is friendly & engaging as is the staff. Stop in, grab a Cafe’ and chill on the sidewalk seating while your breakfast is created..I say created because it is a true work of art…at least in my professional opinion.”

“Wonderful restaurant worth the uber/lyft and definitely go with the $200 experience the drinks and courses are well thought out. The add on wagyu Musubi is a must order 🤭”

“Senia delivers an exceptional dining experience, with attentive, polished service and an intimate ambiance—especially with the option to sit at the chef’s counter and watch the kitchen at work.

The ahi cigar and triple-smoked salmon were highlights. The interplay of textures, aromas, and contrasting flavor notes throughout the meal was thoughtful and beautifully executed. There is a clear sense of creativity and technical precision behind the food.

One minor refinement: some dishes leave guests to construct their own bites. A more controlled composition could better showcase the chef’s intended balance of flavors and textures. Overall, an inventive, refined, and memorable experience deserving of five stars.”

“4.7/5 — nearly perfect. Sushi Sho was one of the best and most focused sushi experiences I’ve had. The meal is prepaid through Tock, with gratuity included, so once you sit down the experience is entirely about the omakase.

Don’t expect caviar, truffles, or unnecessary luxury ingredients added to justify the price. Sushi Sho is about technique, precision, and thoughtful combinations of both local Hawaiian and Japanese ingredients. The rice, temperature, seasoning, texture, and progression of each piece were incredibly deliberate. It feels like a pure sushi experience rather than a luxury tasting menu disguised as omakase.

Keiji Nakazawa wasn’t behind the counter during our visit, but that didn’t detract from the experience. The sushi masters were extremely attentive and detail-oriented, with warm, personal service throughout.

We spent about $490 per person all-in, including sake, beer, and one additional piece. Expensive, absolutely, but the value is in the craftsmanship and execution rather than flashy ingredients. 4.7/5 and about as close to perfect as a sushi experience gets for me.”

“Hoping to be here in 2027. My Popo used to take me and my brothers here since I was seven. I'm now 64 and the food is still unbelievable great. Thank you for being apart of my life.”

“Their hawaiian plate was so Ono & the portions were big. Highly recommended.”

“The food, wine, service, and atmosphere are amazing. I dine here every 2 months and I am always very impressed. Thank you for your continued excellence!”

“I liked it here, but the meat had a bit of a strange gas flavor. Like they had cooked it over some gas that permeated the meat. Other than that, it was really good.”

“The appearance, flavor, and price are all satisfactory; I will certainly return here again. 💯👍 I would recommend this to anyone visiting Hawaii. 🌺🤙”

“We RAN to Waffle and Berry after the zoo. We showed up 15 minutes before closed and they were quick to calm us. As long as we ordered by 2 minutes before close, we would be served. And then they showed up with a snack plate for our toddler. He absolutely loved it!! We absolutely loved our dessert. Crispy, warm waffle. Sweet ice cream and berries. Unbelievably welcoming environment.”

“Such a fun place. They have swing chairs at the bar. love it!!”

“和テイストのフレンチで、とても美味しいですね。”

“Great service😊 Friendly staff ❤️”

“Culinary magic! Was taken here by family, not by choice. However- my next trip, I’ll be visiting on my own and trying a bit more of the menu. So thankful to have experienced this place and dining adventure!”

“From the warm greeting everyone receives when walking through the door to the attentive and super friendly service, this place is amazing! The sushi was outstanding… hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had! The texture, taste and presentation was top notch. Wish there was a location on the east coast!”

“The food was very good, wife love the ice cream on her French toast.”

“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.”

“Amazing. Best service and dining experience ever. This topped any experience at a five start steak house because the staff and chefs providing the best service. We sat at the counter and it was very intimate. This is an authentic as close to Japan experience you can get in the states. Chef Keigo was our chef and taught us everything about omokase”

“Authentic Japanese food! It was great to be able to have it while vacationing in Hawaii. Brought back so many memories of living in Japan!”

“We LOVEEEEE Egghead Cafe!!! Every time we come in they are so friendly, welcoming of my little ones, and quick! I've never had anything bad. Their coffee is delicious, my favorite is Tiramisu Latte! Definitely visit, it will be worth it!”

“Bufanda and Layla took great care of us! Got us a table and was sat comfortably. They brought our drinks out fast and made us feel welcome. Thanks guys. Great drinks!”

“So delicious”

“We celebrated my wife’s birthday at this place with $125 menu. Most of the food was good. We love the Hokkaido scallop and Toro(?) with a touch of Yuzu Kosho (in picture). The worst dish was one of the appetizers made with spicy tuna and deep fried sushi rice. I shouldn’t have forced myself to finish that.”

“I am foodie from Japan, enjoy once or twice a month hotel buffet in Tokyo. But Orchids Sunday branch menu was the best ever. Not only does it taste good, but it also tastes good, fine scenery, number and placement of staff and their diligence noteworthy.”

“Food was amazing.full of locals. It’s upstairs and around a courier. Definitely worth going to.”

“Absolute must try when in Honolulu! My favorite spot to visit when I'm in town. A5 beef option is so worth it, kimchi is amazing, and the service is top notch! This place never disappoints!”

“We've been using Hawaii Coworking/Anytime Mailbox for 1.5 years. Excellent service. Easily accessible location. Lahaina is exceptionally service oriented and a great communicator. I had an Anytime Mailbox at a previous location in California...there is no comparison! Hawaii Coworking and Lahaina on Hobron Lane definitely much, much better! I wholeheartedly recommend Hawaii Coworking!”

“👍 Delicious meals. Nice and attentive service.”

“I haven’t been in many safeways but this is great!
Great selection of almost everything. Hot food is also yummy.
Of course it’s pricey, but everything else is pricey in Hawaii.”

“looking forward to this service.”

“Strawberry Watermelon Shoju was Yummmmm! Cool staff! Good pupus!”

“Ordered the teri beef and spicy wingdings. Wife got the grilled ham & cheese snd asparagus. All was very quick for 11:00 at night. Beef was tender with not too much teriyaki. Wingdings were outstanding and well spiced. ham and cheese was satisfying. All for $36 with 2 drinks was excellent value as well. Excellent local spot that provides more & better when everyone else is closed.”

“My kids and I really love the french fries...😋😋😋 freshly cooked and available anytime👍👍👍👍”

“I think they work great as a team and their people persons”

“I had about 30 minutes before my "Me time" appointment to get all girled up with lashes, pedicure and manicure. I figured I stop in and have some breakfast. The manager that serviced me was sweet. The environment was kicked back as I noticed families enjoying each other. I sat on a 4 seater. That's all they had. I invited Father God to sit with me... I got to talk with him. And ate my breakfast... cried inside of all things going on in my life. Changes etc. Towards the end, a girl asked if she could use 2 seats... I said yes. Turned around and it looked like time with her mom and dad... at least I had the chair in front of me... #godsseat... I miss my parents. They both alive. They just chose to not be in my life. Been so long. Thank you Jack in the Box for being available for me to sit, eat and talk with God. God bless your buisness �”

“That's great..I love it,I love the buttery jack it's so good”

“Fast and friendly Strawberry shortcake McFlurry”

“Order Ala Carte 1/4lb patties with cheese! Save lots of money & skip the unhealthy stuff! #thecarnivorediet”

“Great service and awesome workers. This mc.donalds was extremely busy, i went inside because i thought the drive through would take to long and they still got my order out fast and efficiently and the workers were still happy despite working so hard so early in the morning 😁”

“Late night drive-thru and also Kudos for giving out free meals for all Healthcare workers. Thank You for your support to our front-liners🤙🤙”

“I dunno but when I ordered the fried rice in the morning it was disgusting tasted like wet sponge or a dirty rag 🤮 other than that the side salad was great 😃 👍🏾”

“People seem to come here for matcha but their EARL GREY GELATO is the best EVER. I have tried so many earl grey desserts. This is one of the best. I tried earl grey, hojicha, lilikoi, matcha, black sesame and ube. They are all amazing. Loved the rich flavors.

FYI, there is a sitting area if you want to eat inside the building :)”

“Wonderful hospitality!! And always delicious. 😍 Always a must stop when we are in town. Plus the atmosphere is great as well.”

“Don’t let the exterior fool you, this is no greasy spoon. We had a MARVELOUS breakfast here. All of the food was beyond compare, budget-friendly priced, and the staff is exceptional. Highly recommended. We will be back whenever we are in Honolulu.”

“Food is ALWAYS delicious and the staff is so kind and attentive! Katsu-san creates the most beautiful sashimi platters and omakase sushi!”

“I was visiting Honolulu from Wisconsin, and this food truck ended up being one of the best surprises of the whole trip. I’ll be honest the walk to it looks a little sketchy at first since you head down this small alley, but don’t let that fool you. Once you get back there, it’s a whole different story. The customer service was awesome super friendly, super welcoming. And the food? Straight-up 10/10. The loaded barbecue fries were insane, packed with flavor and totally worth every bite. The burgers were just as amazing, juicy and cooked perfectly. Everything we tried was out of this world. If you’re in Honolulu, don’t sleep on this place. I’d come back in a heartbeat.”

“The food was absolutely delicious! Top notch tempura that is fried fresh. It was served in 2 courses ensuring fresh frying. I ordered shrimp and vegetables. The dipping sauce was light but my fav part with the additional dipping salts/powders that added more flavor depth.
The service was excellent. The staff were kind. The Resturant was clean.”

“Love the food. Delicious. Fresh and hot”

“Fresh made to order Masubi”

“Some of the most delicious pastries and best cuts of meat on the island. One of our go-to spots for getting fun breakfast and planning a scrumptious dinner. Harley and Jason are awesome and this place is an absolute gem!”

“This place was recommended by a foodie friend of mine so I expected it to be good, but no, good doesn’t do it justice. The oat milk latte was glorious and the mango scone delicate, very lightly sweet and the perfect accompaniment to the latte. Service was friendly and helpful.”

“Had such a great food experience. Everyone was friendly. For being complete outsiders, we were made to feel like family.”

“Ordered a sushi platter online via clove for pick up in 30 mins and it was ready when I got there. There was ample parking in the self storage lot. Looked very presentable to bring to a party and tasted good!”

“We were in Hawaii for 8 days and ate at Poke Fix three times. The food is great, the people are friendly and they get you in and out quickly. I would recommend them to anyone.”

“Our first authentic shave ice and it blew away our expectations! Delicious, fresh, and the best sweet treat!”

“Kimchi fry rice is amazing and the poke is fire, definitely on my list of top grinds.”

“Celebrated our engagement here... been here a few times since living here and even after leaving and the vibes and food here are always excellent! We sat at the sushi bar this time which I think made the experience more fun since it basically felt like an omakase style meal despite us also ordering a la carte. We're more into the casual but excellent fish quality vibe anyway... thanks jeff and to the staff for being welcoming!”

“The Best Rockstar place on Oahu!”

“Hidden gem of Poke, definitely sushi grade sushi in this poke as every bite was silky. Every bowl is mixed to order so the fish is not over marinated like grocery store poke.

Definitely, the best poke bowl I have ever had. Worth a stop on the 2nd floor. Super nice people.

Quiet place with dine in, don't let the environment fool you, these people know what they doing.”

“This is my go to coffee place! It’s just outside of Waikiki on Kapahulu Avenue! The owners are amazing and they take pride in everything they do. The coffee shop is always clean, smells amazing and welcoming for anyone that wants to grab a quick bite, some really good coffee or to talk stories on one of their tables. It’s nice to meet up with friends here and get hydrated and caffeinated while catching up before the drive home or to work! Highly recommend their hot mocha!”

“The fish was incredible, the hostess was awesome, and it was one of the best meal experiences of my life! Reserve a spot at their omakase and you will have the meal of your life!”

“These ladies were so sweet, I would come back to Hawaii just to get the shaved ice from them. They made them huge and so yummy very generous amount for the price!!”

“The best Seafood Tempura in Hawaii! Scallops, calamari, shrimp, crab, ahi & assorted veggies. Light, crispy and cooked to perfection. Highly recommended!!! Ask for lemon & salt for all the seafood, if you want to take it to a higher level. I learned this from a tempura bar in Japan.”

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

“お蕎麦はもちろん今回は雲丹、いくら、帆立の海鮮丼がとても美味しかったです。 ランチセットがリーズナブルです👍”

“Everything here was amazing! The gentleman man taking the order was very nice and remembered our face from the other day. It was very quick to get our food. We wish we found this spot earlier in our trip.”

“ジンジャーのpokeが特に素晴らしかった✨️✨️✨️凄くご飯に合うので丼で食べるのがおすすめです。”

“The best to ring in the new year, ran into a bit of a snafu trying to pick up my order, (no fault of theirs), she went above and beyond and still got my order! I love them and what they represent. My go to for the freshest poke on the island hands down! My friend Chef Adam Tabura recommended them and the rest is history! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“The ladies who work here are very sweet. They give you extra smoothie in a little cup. The smoothies are the best I’ve ever had and the fruit is delicious. If you buy a 32 oz you can keep the jar and bring it back for $7 refills. The fruit is reasonably priced, $5-7 for a good size container.”

“Ate here this morning. Had the sunrise breakfast with Portuguese sausage and some of the best friend rice I’ve ever had. Entire meal was good, well priced and came out in a timely manner. Kids enjoyed their chocolate chip pancakes. Would’ve added photos, but the food was enjoyed long before photos were considered lol.”

“The Zaru-soba sauce was perfect...the soba itself was good, but the sauce is amazing. I haven't had sauce like that since I was in Japan.

The hamachi carpaccio was a little sad looking, but the salmon with yuzu was really good. There were other dishes I wanted but they were out of it when I went.

Quail eggs were nice, the eggplant tempura was really good too...didn't care much for the grilled tofu. I guess it was because it was harder and dryer than I thought it was gonna be even after letting it sit in the sauce (i poked holes in it to help it absorb more of the sauce, but that didn't work).

Overall this restaurant has some really amazing food, as well as some not so amazing food. But overall I enjoyed it there. But for sure I'll be back when I want zaru-soba and salmon.

One interesting thing that happened was we asked if we could sit at the bar and we were told no. There was plenty of open seating at the bar, and there were only 1 or 2 couples up there at the time eating. I guess we were not good enough for the bar seating for some reason.”

“Our family had the best time. Luau was authentic and in a spacious venue with breathtaking views. Staff were friendly. Performances were unforgettable. Activities were engaging. Definitely the best luau I’ve been to. Mahalo Experience Nutridge.”

“I walked passing the center this morning what I found. They start putting up Christmas decorations in the beginning of October.. are you kidding me? It won’t help your sales if you looking for that goal. It would make many people though you are crazy. I am not sure the marketing or what so ever department does not knows well what exactly what is they doing. Instead of trying doing that you should focus on the coming event. Such as Early access sales campaigns it will be boosted traffic Not Christmas decorations in October.”

“We had the best time with Aung. Went for our wedding anniversary and had the best fish we’ve ever tasted here. Thanks for making our trip here and first omakase so special.”

“Everything was so beautiful and intimate!”

“Great sushi just a quick walk away from the airport during a layover”

“This is one of the world’s great restaurant. The food is amazing, the ambience is incredible and the wait staff is one of the most knowledgeable I have seen. The guest is treated like royalty. I highly recommend this restaurant”

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

“We heard about this famous shaved ice and needed to try it. It was created by Michelin-starred Chef Yoichi Ishizaki from Tokyo. Our server was very friendly and made sure we got the settled in and happy with our dessert.”

“What an incredible dining experience! Every dish was expertly, intentionally, and thoughtfully curated--the passion and respect for exceptional products were clear in every single bite. The flavor profiles were unique while honoring tradition using fresh ingredients--some meticulously procured and others unique and locally developed. To make our experience even more memorable, Chef Ray was such a generous and welcoming host. He shared stories of his training, techniques, and the most entertaining anecdotes! We thoroughly enjoyed the food, the entertainment, and being a part of a wonderful culinary tradition. This was by far the most memorable dining experience I have ever had.”

“Amazing food and atmosphere every time. I highly recommend this restaurant”

“The Tomahawk steak is outstanding. No need to ruin it with A1 sauce. The stuffed chicken breast was not dry, so tasty. Everything is ala carte but totally worth it. Would go again”

“So welcoming ❤️ simple dinner or a drink at night next to the beach, priceless”

“What an exceptionally wonderful place for ambience, service and food. The staff were so friendly and attentive, our sever went above and beyond to be professional and friendly. The food - steak and salad with sides was excellent. The live music - guitarist/singer was also so good and created a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend this restaurant.”

“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!”

“You will never be disappointed. The chef’s creativity in every dish shines through and is phenomenal every time. Makes me cry good tears! The best sushi on Oahu and a memorable, friendly atmosphere!”

“A true hidden gem! Everything was freshly made with clean, high-quality ingredients, and every single dish was on point—aromatic, zesty, crispy, and packed with savory flavor. The entire menu is 100% vegan. My husband usually isn’t a fan of plant-based food, but this place completely won him over and he can't wait to go back. The portions were generous, and the prices made it feel like an absolute steal. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed!!!”

“Amazing shaved ice, so unique! Never tried such a wonderful combination #6 Ube + Taro + Pikake one, just mind blowing! Quick and great service, music and ambience was nice too!”

“The most delicious place to grab a smoothie in Waikiki. Always friendly staff working there and really great service! Especially Yu! I tell all my friends:))”

“Excellent experience. The sushi was incredibly fresh, expertly prepared, and truly stands above the competition. What made the visit even more memorable was the genuine warmth and kindness of the staff. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient, making us feel welcome from start to finish. We will definitely be back when we come back to Hawaii, and highly recommend this restaurant.”

“風景優美，服務品質特佳。”

“Excellent food with a really creative menu. Malia always makes the best plated presentations.”

“Small local shop, kind of hidden next to Starbucks, but definitely recommend stopping in! Their smoothies are super fresh and the sandwich meat was delicious. Super friendly and welcoming to new customers! Definitely give them a try”

“The most expensive beers we ever had in a plastic glass! And no toilets...but the swim was amazing minus the paddle courts right behind us. But you know what think of Paddle...”

Absolutely love Aloha Pineapple Cafe, I eat here every morning except for Tuesdays cause they are closed.

It also has Beatuiful views and location 👍👍👍”

“Our awesome neighbors bought us bentos from here and they were absolutely delicious!! My husband especially gobbled it up in a flash! The savory flavors and seasoning were perfection. It’s been a long time since I last had Teruya’s so it was very nostalgic! I very rarely go to town anymore but the next time I have an appointment, we will definitely be stopping by to grab a bunch of stuff. Looking forward to the sweets especially! Always nice to support our longtime local establishments 👍”

“The wait was long and more crowded than I would like but it was worth it.”

“Absolutely the best donuts we have ever had!”

“We absolutely fell in love with this bakery! The service is warm, friendly, and never pushy. Everything we tried was delicious, especially the ube cheese roll, brownie, corned beef roll, guava pastry, and cheese roll. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything here. We wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing baked goods!

Come early, though — the popular items sell out fast! We wholeheartedly recommend this place”

“Their sushi cake exceeded our expectations. It was so delicious and almost too pretty to eat! The 2 guys working when I picked up were awesome! Super friendly and one even took the time to show me the cake and gave tips on how to cut and eat it! Their customer service from ordering to pick up was exceptional!”

“Vegan bento box - I'm in love!!! Incredibly delicious, so are the "chicken" tacos. Please open a restaurant on the Big Island!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️”

“About the Rating Stars (optional) - suggest a switch to Mandatory! Comments Illustrate as Advertised. Mr. Dolan has another location opposite Kahala Mall. One can pre-populate the Survey. Yep, (Better Be) too busy Dining-n-Enjoying themselves!”

“Shrimp tempura was awesome1 Good friendly service.”

“The food is so flavorful...the best tasting so far..The service is outstanding. Very warm and inviting. They treat all the customers as if they are family. I would highly recommend eating here.”

“Talk Kaimuki deserves a 10 rating based on its excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Everyone feels welcome, comfortable, and special. It's our home away from home!”

“My all itme favirite restaurant. Excellent food and service. Reknown for their chirashi.”

“Since, I first tried Indian Food I fell in love with it awesome dishes Taste of unquine Dishes. All Vegetarian dishes and non vegetarian like Lamb, chicken and fish. People are so kind and welcome 🙏.”

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

“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.”

“OMG! The Hauoli Pastry Poi Mochisada is DA BOMB! Light & airy, slightly crispy outside. If I had known it was going to be this good, I would have bought 2 dozen. If you only buying for yourself, MAYBE 6 is enough, but I'm a big boy so a dozen would have been perfect for me. We discovered them at the Night Market at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club and I'm so glad we did. If I ever see them elsewhere, I'm definitely buying again. Otherwise, I will have to wait for the next Night Market, but I won't make the same mistake as tonight, so gonna leave with 2 dozen!”

“10/17/25 Friendly service and delicious food. Second visit to Waialae location.”

“The Best Rockstar place on Oahu!”

“Ate at location in HLN while waiting for flight I had the Hawaiian dot long my daughter had the bbq ribs. Both were great”

“We visited Aina Steak and Seafood over the Christmas holidays and were a little bit late for our reservations. Luckily, the friendly staff still saved a table for us by the open kitchen. The kitchen and the entire restaurant, including the bathrooms, were very clean. The restaurant had a different vibe from other steakhouses on the island which was very refreshing. The friendly waitress took our drink orders and gave us an overview of some of the recommendations and specials. Our waitress was very attentive and always had a smile on her face. She checked on us multiple times throughout our dining experience. We ordered: Appetizer: Oyster platter, salad (came with the steak) Sides: Truffle mashed potatoes, mushroom medley Entrees: Prime ribeye, lamb rack Dessert: Creme brulee, cheesecake The apps were fresh and delicious. The protein entrees came with these special salts and wasabi on the side. It complimented the meat well. The ribeye was just mediocre but the lamb was some of the best I have ever tasted on this island. The sides were portioned well and very tasty. Desserts was just what you would expect to end the meal with. Overall the food was very good. Now this is where the night was sort of ruined. As we were seated near the kitchen, we could overhear the cook/manager/owner(?) berating his service staff very loudly and in earshot of us customers. We were not eavesdropping, but he was so loud that we could see that this was legitimate borderline verbal abuse. I felt sorry for the female staffers that had to endure his unprofessional outbursts in the workplace. I say this as someone who has worked in every position of the restaurant field. As a manager, I have never yelled at any of my staff ever, because you as the leader must show leadership. How do you expect to manage or control your environment when you cannot control your own temper? As a waiter, I would never tolerate an authoritarian manager. I would quit right on the spot. As HR, you might have a lawsuit on your hands if you were to abuse your workers. I loved the food, but I would only come back again if another cook or manager was working instead of this man. I cannot support a business that mistreats its workers, no matter how good the food is.”

“If you have never tried 'Namaste Indian & Nepalese Cuisine' in Honolulu - you should have no hesitation whatsoever about ordering from here - it's 12/10 delicious! I had it for the first time tonight - hands down one of the best meals I've ever had! Lamb Masala & the Rogan Josh lamb dish was phenomenal. Naan was freshly made. Meat was SO tender. You definitely can tell that the ingredients are high quality with health benefits & cooked with a lotta love. I regret not ordering more (especially the mango lassi mmm...) I honestly could eat from here everyday & not feel guilty. This is the type of food that will heal you from the inside out lol. Fresh - healthy REAL food - tons of amazing flavors - warms the soul! Just added to my Top 5 favorites on Oahu! Go order now!!”

“We came in to celebrate our daughter's birthday over the weekend. I was fairly busy and they placed us really close to the kitchen. The kids thought it was so cool to see them sort of cooking the food. Our server was Brooklyn and right for the start she was very nice and friendly, was always checking on us. Food came quickly with only one order that took awhile, which was the birthday girls meal. Peter the assistant general manager came by and apologize to her that her meal was taking awhile and that it would be out shortly. He asked her if she would like an Icee or milk shake while she waited. She said no, and then he left, about 3 minutes later Peter brought her meal to her and thanked her for her patience. He gave her a power card as a thank you and for her celebration., He took her meal off our bill and by then the kids were off to play games and the adults remained at the table for some adult beverages. Peter and Brooklyn really made her birthday special!, later come to find out that Peter is from the same part of the world that we are from, Loved the attention and service that we received on our visit.”

“So, we went there twice. One for dinner and for late lunch. Not dropping names. First, dinner. Service was great and personable. My wife had the macadamia nut crusted fish. She said it was great and tasty. I had the huli huli chicken. It was, eh. The flavor was decent but not a whole half a chicken. There was a breast, leg and very, very small part of a thigh, which is my favorite. Breast
was also kinda dry. I think breasts are very difficult for chefs, happens a lot.
Lunch. Hot wings and cheeseburger. Wings are large and there are 6. Not fried crispy. More of a soft exterior. Personally, not the way to do wings. The flavor was good and unique. Server was young but nice. Difficult for her to look you in the eyes. Overall experience was nice”

“One of my best meals here on the island! Love the farm to table! Love to be able to support local farmers and businesses. The frozen pina colada was the best one I have ever had and I have had some really good ones. Our waiter was great and patient!”

“We had two fantastic meals here during our time in Hawaii! Looking forward to coming again!”

“Had a great visit, got lucky with a really nice evening so the view was perfect. The half chicken and the salmon were really really tasty. We also enjoyed our drinks, the not-your-average mai tai in particular. I guess since this is a popular hotel the crowds are normal but it was pretty noisy the whole time, nothing too disturbing though. We had a waiter in training and he did good job, but with that in mind it was a little pricey. There are places nearby with stellar service at a similar price point is really what I'm getting at. But he'll get there! Overall, we had a great dinner and it's worth going back to.”

“We ate at Hula tonight for the first time and Levin took care of us! He went above and beyond and made the experience for myself, my mom and daughter absolutely wonderful. His suggestions for entrees were on point and his customer service was the best we had since arriving on the island! Thank you so much!”

“Delicious malsadas. Very crowded. It was a little slow because they make the malsadas when you order. Definitely try the original!”

“The food is exquisite! The service delightful.”

“Icon scene on Waikiki Beach! Top notch service. 🌺”

“Hawaiian seafood restaurant”

“Best Steak House on the West Coast! If you stop in for dinner say hi to bro-in-law Matt! He's got great stories! just don't mention my name cause then the stories will be fiercely funny 🤣”

“Dinner at Wolfgang's Lanai was a wonderful experience for our family of four visiting from Japan. We ordered the Garlic Shrimp, Fried Calamari, Loco Moco, and Taste of New York, and everything was delicious. It was also reassuring to know that there was Japanese-speaking staff available. In particular, Emily's service was truly touching. All four of us, including our two daughters, will never forget your smile and kindness. Thank you so much.”

“We Had the best experience with Marky she is so uplifting very personable love that she is who she is absolutely amazing ty for a special great time love you all”

“Larry and Wilma give it 5 thumbs up. Great service, Great food, Great view and great atmosphere.”

“Amazing , delicious, out of this world”

“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.”

“If your looking for a good gluten free place this is the place for you, my sister has celiac and it’s always hard to find places but this place was perfect near our hotel, very filling waffles and you walk out feeling healthy with there organic options, it’s a small place but I felt the Hawaii experience dining outside, I highly recommend them if u have celiac disease”

“We had the breakfast poke bowl, which had very fresh ingredients. Please note the preparation of each plate could take 25-30 mins, which for some could be too long of a wait.”

“Everything inside is 100%… but if you’re waiting for your food/drink outside the doors… be prepared to smell the bodily fluids of the mentally ill humans who patrol the area, and bring bug spray to fight the flees and bug bites that follow those smells around. I waited for 2 minutes outside and my legs are covered. Ambiance and experience of a great cafe unfortunately ruined by the area it’s in.”

“Best shaved ice in Honolulu! Delicious ice cream and syrup flavors! They also have all natural options. We’ll be back tomorrow 🤤”

“Our server name was Benjamin, she was amazing, really took care of us! Already planning to come back, my husband and I both think our experience surpassed our expectations. Amazing food, excellent service and really good atmosphere.”

“The food and service were outstanding! All of the food was prepared to perfection, texture and seasoning on everything was amazing! I didn't expect such wonderful food and service based on the location. Looking at the restaurant from the outside, you wouldn't know there is such an incredible gem of a restaurant.”

“Friendly service and great food”

“The food was absolutely phenomenal. We have tried a variety of sushi places including several omakase experiences. This place is a fantastic for sushi. I mean truly in a league of its own. The other touches like the authenticity, the ambience, and the service were also great. The chef was quite friendly and the staff was great. They do have an added, automatic gratuity of 20% but it is well earned and deserved. It may be better framed as a service fee or baked into the price, but that would be my only mention to set expectations. Other than that, every single option we chose on the menu (as a party of 2 we ordered 9 different items and each was a delight) not only reads well but is delicious! Their house made soy sauce served with a brush-tool as well as the wasabi in rice was a first time, unique culinary experience for us, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. Both really help bring out flavorful bites!”

“As soon as my family walked by, my kids were begging to come here to eat (you can see why, just by the picture). Looks fun, tastes great, and you can tell the crew here know how to cook and care about you enjoying the meals. 10/10 recommend.”

“From the first time you ring the bell to when you're smoking stellar cigars and sipping on amazing old fashioned cocktails...this is the SPOT! Owned by a renowned family and with hospitality to boot...if you don't come here ya being square!”

“Best coffee I’ve had in Waikiki and I’m a coffee snob. The cold brew with macadamia nut cold foam is out of this world. Its woman owned and the staff are a delight. Must try.”

“Hawaiian Prime Seafood and Steaks is the best. Great service, very personable and the food is top notch. DON'T shop anywhere else, feed your family high quality foods at a great price point, you will not be disappointed.”

“If you have never tried 'Namaste Indian & Nepalese Cuisine' in Honolulu - you should have no hesitation whatsoever about ordering from here - it's 12/10 delicious! I had it for the first time tonight - hands down one of the best meals I've ever had! Lamb Masala & the Rogan Josh lamb dish was phenomenal. Naan was freshly made. Meat was SO tender. You definitely can tell that the ingredients are high quality with health benefits & cooked with a lotta love. I regret not ordering more (especially the mango lassi mmm...) I honestly could eat from here everyday & not feel guilty. This is the type of food that will heal you from the inside out lol. Fresh - healthy REAL food - tons of amazing flavors - warms the soul! Just added to my Top 5 favorites on Oahu! Go order now!!”

“Had to go back for MORE! Delicious and such creative flavors, plus eye candy.”

“Everything 🤙😵‍💫🤙,,,,Sooo Ono ! Break away from the typical grind and find something New , this is the place !”
