Restaurants in Honolulu

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

“Very good food.”

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

“Very friendly staff. The Mai Tai has almost a unique creaminess to ot that I've never had before. It's well worth trying along with other drinks there. All were unique and tasted great. Worth the visit even as a walk in.”

“A wonderful experience at Maze in Honolulu, largely thanks to the exceptionally warm service, strong flavor and sauce work, and consistently good dishes from beginning to dessert.

What sticks in our mind were the oyster (meaty oyster that didn't feel powdery as some larger ones do, balanced but not overwhlemed by the sauce on top), the basil jook that came with the scallop dish (so well developed), the Washugyu and daikon broth that came with the main.

Also want to compliment the pacing of the meal as we never felt like we were waiting for a long time for any of the dishes. Pretty much perfectly well paced for preferences.

Overall, adding in everything into the experience would not hesitate to come back here again.”

“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.”

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

“I made the conditional 25 dollar cancellation fee—reservation on open table days ago, and I recommend to make one ahead to reserve a table.
Parking is next door in the building, directly map the location to marin towel manciple parking is better option for you. Then walk down to the restaurant.
The two non-alcoholic drinks I have ordered the cucumber sour and house drink of the day, I highly recommend.
Corn one is way too cheesy and strong truffle flavor.
The beef is highly recommend.
Scallop has a great taste, cooked perfectly in texture but has a strong seafood flavor.
The food takes a long time to cook and wait, plan for at least two hours. Come by earlier before the appointment time is recommended, at least 15.
Two people, we spent 255D, top included.
Service is nice and professional.
Dessert menu came after the course has done, and variable selection of wine.
Chocolate is okay.
Strawberry cake is highly recommended.”

“The bara shirashi box is an excellent value. The sushi is high quality and well seasoned and the rice is perfectly cooked and consistent both times I've ordered it.”

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

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

“Service was alright. What stand out are the authentic HK style congee and the rice roll super perfect tender that mix well with peanut and oyster sauce. Will not hesitate to recommend”

“What a great burger!! We were so lucky to find them, they’re in almost hidden spot. The order their arugula burger, but I added mushroom to it, it was unreal.
The amount of meat that you get is so good. She was even mindful of my pregnancy, and though I forgot to tell her go for fully cooked she came out and asked me how I would like the Patty to be cooked.”

“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.”

“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 ❤️”

“A gem at on Diamond Head side of Waikiki. We sat the bar and enjoyed a fun selection of drinks and plates to share. All of dishes looked and tasted great and had twists that made the stand out from other menus - bbq fries with sour cream and chive dip had of the flavors and more of a baked potato. The bartender was knowledgeable and a pleasure to chat with. Would go back again, immediately.”

“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.”

“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!”

“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!”

“This is the ultimate Hidden Gem of Honolulu! You can find me on the dance floor whenever they have DJs on weekends. Perfect place to chill and take your date for an intimate and quiet time. As quiet as a bar can be I suppose. Must visit for your bachelorette party or post wedding celebration! Bianca and the staff are very warm and very professional ♥️”

“So delicious”

“Really cute omakase restaurant hidden and tucked away in the back corner. There were like 10 seats and 3 staff members, whom were all super friendly. We had the $100 omakase set and it came with all the premium goodies! Super happy with how fast the food comes out, the freshness and quality, and how delicious each piece tasted. Definitely going to be my go to omakase spot now.”

“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.”

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

“Couldn’t have had a better experience while on vacation!!”

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

“Absolutely one of the best dinners my boyfriend and I have ever had in our lives. We travel and love experiencing good food, this was beyond that. This exceeds 5 stars and is a must try. Maki is an amazing server. What a pleasure you all were. Thank you so much. MAHALO”

“👍 Delicious meals. Nice and attentive service.”

“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!”

“looking forward to this service.”

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

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

“I suggest you ordering ahead of time over the phone. Especially when it's night time. That's when it's very busy. So if your like me and don't like waiting then I suggest you order over the phone.”

“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”

“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 😁”

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

“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 😃 👍🏾”

“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🤙🤙”

“This location has consistently been great for drive thru and dine in, with almost everything tasting like it was freshly made while not taking a super long time.

Their execution of the menu ensures the food you get lives up to what you’re expecting, unlike other locations nearby where the food looks sad and unappetizing

Keep up the great work”

“Excellent food at McDonald’s Salt Lake Shopping Center. The hot cakes and sausage were delicious and just the right portions. Great to sit down and enjoy our breakfast. Mahalo McDonald’s Hawaii.”

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

“Good not great, matcha is pretty solid quality but the hojicha is just okay. It feels like more of an afterthought as it’s the less popular of the two. I do think the desserts are something I’d like to come back for though. I hope they source a better hojicha powder in the future for their lattes. Plenty of seating 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.”

“Visiting from Texas we were looking for some authentic Asian food and came across this gem! We absolutely loved the food. The service was superb with them spoiling us. The tempura was light, but with great flavor, including the various salt options. The food was filling and worth the stop! Great place to visit and go back again!”

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

“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.”

“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!”

“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!”

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

“The Best Rockstar place on Oahu!”

“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.”

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

“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:))”

“Highly recommend! Great local spot of shaved ice.

10/10 natural syrup (no artificial flavoring), great fresh fruit, lots of parking, great service. Asian sweetness but they are willing to give you more syrup if you need it.

Will go again!”

“This was our favorite coffee spot on our trip. We loved the cloud cold brew. The service was nice and friendly and the prices were decent. We went here three times during our seven day trip.”

“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👍”

“The ultimate clean smoothie and crack seed place on a budget.I think I've easily found my #2 smoothie spot outside Lanikai juice and easily beats it for the value. While finding it off beretania is rough and parking even rougher (tight side alley action) the food and drinks are worth the wait. It's a legit hole in the wall run by a couple of aunties who are making clean and whole fruit smoothies in bulk it's insane. For a 32oz smoothie with any combo of fruit it's 10 bucks. Taste is super clean and you can actually taste the fruit chunks as you lap up this sleeper in your car. They also have a wide variety of crackseed stuff and gummies which I'd be down to try as the prices are quite reasonable. Easily a return spot !”

“My son’s favorite part about our trip to Hawaii (age7), the chocolate chip pancakes were his favorite. I personally loved the coconut ones :)

Family went back twice while staying there because we all loved the food & it was a convenient walk from the Sheraton.
The service was great, guy taking orders was super nice.”

“Best coffee, best toast. Best experience!”

“Mauka Warriors Luau was one of the absolute highlights of our first trip to Hawaii! This was so much more than a luau - it was an unforgettable cultural experience.

We loved that the show didn’t just feature amazing performances but also taught us the history and traditions of the different Polynesian cultures. Learning about the warrior traditions and the stories behind each island made the performances even more meaningful.

The dancers were phenomenal, the fire performance was incredible, and the entire cast was energetic and engaging. The food was delicious and everyone we encountered was so welcoming and friendly.

If you’re visiting Oahu, don’t miss this luau. It’s educational, entertaining, and truly gives you a deeper appreciation for the rich history and culture of Polynesia. We left with wonderful memories and a much greater understanding of Hawaii and its neighboring island cultures. Mahalo for an amazing evening!”

“Best kaiten place I've been to, by a mile (be it in Japan or the US). A bit different in a few ways.

All orders are placed a la carte on the tablet in front of you and then sent to you by conveyor, rather than having plates of various price points circling the restaurant. Nice that you get everything right after it's made! Good sushi preparation; very good nigiri.

This does all come at a noticeably higher price point though - you get what you pay for.

Easily recommendable, just worth noting that this is more like genuinely good stuff sent by conveyor, rather than a cheap bite.”

“Great food and great staff!”

“Although it’s on the higher end concerning price this is the only poke that has stood out to me here. It is more than worth the price, the medium is almost enough for two meals I’d say. I am excited to go back soon. Good seating and the lady taking orders was very nice. There is also parking in the parking structure if there’s none in the front.”

“WOW! Found this place from a ‘food near me’ search on Google Maps. I was genuinely blown away by the quality, service, and love put into every single bite. Drinks were absolutely amazing and our server suggested some great options that were so good! Tried the lychee lemon mojito, and the drop as well as a light beer can’t quite remember the name but all drinks were amazing. 🤩
The food was on a different level and every bite was delicious. We tried the fries, spicy tuna don, miso pork chop, and some of the incredibly fresh tuna!”

“One of the best culinary experiences I’ve had in such a long time. The tasting dish was so full of life and made with such care. Everything was delicious.

Even though we were 20 mins late to our resy, chef Aung was so gracious and welcomed us anyways. The vibes, the music, and the fact that we all were just hanging out made the experience something unforgettable.”

“We visited with a group and got a little bit of everything, Including the desserts. Every single dish had its own unique, incredible flavor. You can really taste the love and care put into this food. It felt so wholesome and comforting. While the kitchen took a little time to get the food out, it was absolutely worth the wait because everything was served perfectly. Definitely recommend, and we already can't wait to come back for brunch!”

“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!”

“Incredible flavor & huge portions! I had the Garlic Parmesan Crusted Ahi over brown rice. I’ll absolutely be back!”

“Koa Oasis is one of my favorite little finds at Fort DeRussy Beach Park.

Not for nothing, but for a tiny beach shack, they make some surprisingly solid cocktails. I’ve had the Mai Tai several times and recently tried the Li Hing Margarita for the first time. It definitely won’t be my last. In fact, I think I’d order it over the Mai Tai next time, which is saying a lot.

The service is always outstanding. Every employee I’ve interacted with has been friendly, welcoming and efficient. Honestly, if I could give the service 10 stars, I would.

The food selection is limited, but that’s not really the point. They have snacks, chips and hot dogs — enough to soak up the booze from the booze shack. 😂

One other thing worth mentioning: I’m not military, but if you’re active duty, retired military or a veteran, Koa Oasis offers a military discount with proof of service.

Great drinks, great service and an unbeatable location just steps from the beach.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Everything was so beautiful and intimate!”

“We did delivery, they have a limited menu on DoorDash. It was really delicious, exceeded my expectations! The wasabi was really premium, the chirashi bowl had lots of flavor and a good portion size, and the salmon is so creamy. We especially liked the tamago and roe. Wonderful flavors!”

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

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

“An izakaya is a casual Japanese pub-style restaurant designed for socializing over drinks and shared small plates, acting as a staple of Japanese dining culture.

Last meal on Oahu. An excellent offering suggested by my cycle buddy, Randy S. Randy had told us that they were the 2022 James Beard Best Restaurant semi-finalist is deserving recognition.

I really can't tell you all we had because Randy took charge. Every bite worked well with the bottle of sake we had. I do know that one of the bites included firefly squid, those cute, small, bioluminescent cephalopods famous for their brilliant blue light.

Regardless, it was a fun way to cap off the trip. Loved the food, love the company... what a great place!”

“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”

“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 an amazing experience at Hihimanu Sushi! The quality and freshness of the fish were outstanding, and every bite was thoughtfully crafted and delicious. Chef Ray is incredibly talented and made the entire experience feel special. The staff were attentive, friendly, and provided top-notch service throughout the night. Truly the best sushi we’ve ever had! Easily a 5-star experience and a must-visit while in Hawaii!”

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

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

“Just go and order Omakase. It is the sushi experience of your life!”

“We used to be regulars here before covid and afterwards, it seemed the food quality had deteriorated, so stopped going. But we recently attended a party there and everything was back to great! So much so that my husband chose it for his birthday dinner earlier this week. The whole experience is wonderful, so make a reservation without hesitation!”

“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”

“We went here not knowing it was vegan. We did not plan to eat vegan, but we decided to check it out since we were already there. The food was fantastic. I may be a vegan convert. Everything we ordered was delicious.”

“Today I got to try their Spam & Eggs with Rice Noodles in Soup and it was unique with great taste. I also got to try the milk tea for the first time and found it to be very tasty. Also, the service was very friendly and helpful.”

“really good, and the lady is very nice :D the only thing is its not always open during the listed hours, but when it is open its quite yummy ! kids size was plenty for me”

“best Mexican food on island, friendly service, HUGE portions - well worth it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Stopped after seeing a review on tiktok for the coconut cloud 9 matcha. Staff were amazing and greeted us with a smile. Matcha was also delicious!! Glad we stopped”

“Great taste using Natural non dairy ingredients! Very great customer service and good price.”

“Nanding’s Bakery Spanish rolls are a local classic—you’ll find them at almost every potluck or office party, and for good reason.

Soft, chewy, and buttery with that slightly sweet finish… they’re best when warm, and honestly, one piece is never enough. You always end up going back for more.

Stopped by the Kapahulu location—super convenient with easy parking, which makes quick pick-ups a breeze.”

“Delicious food ,great people”

“They ran out of shrimp tempura and I asked if I could order a couple. They said it would take 5 minutes to cook if I didn’t mind waiting and someone would bring it to me. It was great.”

“Super attentive staff in a cozy place. If the view of Diamond Head doesn't blow you away the food here will. Been a huge fan of this business but only been able to sample their foods at the Kakaoka farmer's market, first time at their store. Ordered a malasada and went with the mango filling which was the special of the day. They made it fresh. Was everything I hoped for. Warm flaky exterior with the sweet cream filling inside.”

“Absolutely the best donuts we have ever had!”

“Best burritos on the planet!”

“We picked up sushi for our flight. It was prepared very efficiently and well-packaged to make it through security and the airport.
I will definitely do it again for our next HNL departure.”

“This is a cozy, cutely decorated place. The clientele many are studying on their devices, so it's a quiet place. The bottom line is the drinks are very good. My 9yr old nephew insisted on coming here, and seemed to know what to order. While playing chess in the place he revealed he and his mother have been coming here after their evening walks. The plain milk tea and the ube tea is really good. For me 25% sweet is perfect.
Prices are good. You can enjoy a nice drink in a comfortable setting or take out. Open until 10pm!”

“It was onigiri—nothing particularly special. That said, most onigiri in the U.S. tend to be lower quality due to cheaper rice, so this place stands out for using better-quality rice. It’s definitely above average by U.S. standards, but not amazing. Best not to expect too much.”

“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.”

“I and a couple of other retirees discovered Pur Sina when they opened and have been weekly customers ever since. Their small kitchen limits the menu choices, but what they offer is tasty and reasonably priced. The pleasant customer-oriented staff has made it serve as a home away from home for us, and we have always felt welcomed. If/when they leave, they will be sorely missed.”

“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!!”

“Visited because of the good reviews during my vacation, great place and live performance was good. Food was amazing! Yet the only thing I didn't like much the service, our server wasn't the best, I know its busy but everyone should be treated nice, when we arrived she was nice then took forever to come and check what we need to order, I asked for couple things multiple times so she can bring it, I typically tip at least 20% but because the bad service is tipped 15% which is not bad. Yet she was giving us a red eye which i didn't like!! If i visited again will only visit for the food not the service!”

“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!”

“Faith is an amazing bartender! Her drinks are so yummy and she is so attentive. I love sitting at the end of her bar, I always have the best experience. I most certainly cannot wait to come back!”

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

“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!”

“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 🤣”

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

“My family and I had dinner at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse, and the experience was perfect. Our waiter, named David, was the best waiter we’ve ever had. He was even able to pack our dessert Sunday to-go. The food was amazing, and the air conditioning was excellent. We will certainly be back!”

“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.

“Delicious with amazing service!!”

“I visited today and sat at the bar for Happy Hour and had the best bartender (woman) whose name I didn't get but we did chat about travel. She was so kind! I forgot my credit card and ran after me down the street to return it to me! The food was great and the service was awesome. Thank you kind lady and enjoy your trip to South Africa!”

“First of all, this is not our first visit here for me and my husband. But this time we had our 2 kids with us. We walked in on a Father’s Day weekend on a Saturday, expecting no tables for a family of 4. They were able to sit us by the bar. And it was amazing, the food is great we had the MEGAHAWK, oysters, thick-cut bacon, keiki steak plate and very refreshing watermelon sorbet. Willian and Brian were friendly and superb with their service. As always we will be back again soon. THE STEAK IS NOT A MISTAKE ON THIS ONE!!! 👍🏼💯✅- R.C.”

“I am gluten free and had a great experience here. The food is entirely gluten free, modifications are available for dairy free and it is delicious. There is a lovely patio where you can enjoy your food.”

“So far we've eaten here 2 times since we've gotten to Oahu, and its been excellent each time! Highly recommend the waffles !! We will definitely be back atleast once more before we go home !”

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

“Great service and sandwiches. The place is comfy enough, though most of the seating is hard with thin cushions. The Hawaii gesha coffee was good, but tasted a little over extracted (bitter) considering the roaster's own notes.”

“The food was good and the AYCE style is definitely fitting for sushi and small Japanese appetizers. The restaurant is small, but this works in its favor as sushi can take some time to prepare. I give a four-star rating only because I disagree with the concept of mandatory gratuities as a rule. This only applies to parties of six or more, however.”

“A wonderful dinner enjoyed by my family of 4 ( youngest 11). Wonderful wine and sake selection. Each course we had was enjoyable miso soup, edamame, tempura, sashimi, rolls, and the black sesame ice cream well very much enjoyed. Would absolutely come back and recommend to others. Omakase experience is something we would absolutely do on our next visit!”

“Salad bar buffet included poached fish and lobster bisque- amazing array of delicious and light options! Our server Kelly was great and kept refilling water and checking on us. Really enjoyed our dinner.”

“Great quality fish. The chef is also highly skilled at sushi making. Service is great and their sake selection is excellent. Highly recommended for omakase lovers”

“Friendly service and great food”

“Ordering steaks from Hawaiian Prime has become a tradition for us. The quality is consistently outstanding and their team is always incredibly helpful. It feels good supporting a great local resource and the steaks never disappoint. Correction: the steaks AND seafood never disappoint. We ordered lobster tails for the first time this year… Simply amazing!”

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

“I wish I could give this place SEVEN stars, but apparently Google Maps is run by cowards.

RM 38 is, without question, the best bar on the island. And it’s not like the island is out here serving sad gas-station margaritas—there are plenty of world class drinks around. RM 38 is just that far ahead of the pack.

The staff is amazing. You can tell they genuinely love what they do, which makes sitting at the bar feel like dinner theater, except everyone is cooler, the plot involves cocktails, and the ending is always “wow, I need another one.”

The menu is awesome, but if you are overwhelmed or indecisive, just let them work their magic. They will make you something better than whatever you thought your favorite drink was, then casually drop a fascinating story behind it like they are part bartender, part historian, part wizard.”

“Best place on the island. Not all icee places are equal. This is the best place . Be sure to try it”

“Bikini burger was a perfect fit after a long day of vacation. Fresh, hot juicy burger that comes with seasoned fries. We also got the salad and loved the toppings (pickle, tomato, dressing). Simple but delicious. The uniquely fried Oreos were a fun dessert. My son loved them.”

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