The mai Tai's were so good. I thought they were a little expensive, but after three I realized that they were definitely worth the price. They were all very delicious!

Lovely place for dinner! Sat at the bar and Samson was a wonderful, attentive, and personable bartender and gave great food recommendations. Everyone was so friendly and social. Unexpectedly wonderful Wednesday evening!

Our long time favorite MaiTais. Sadly it seems as though they have switched to a rum that is aged in whiskey barrels. The last few had a subtle and istinctive whiskey taste. I don't remember this flavor on pur past visits.

Food was amazing! The views are unmatched! Staff is incredibly friendly! And really appreciate how accommodating they are with allergies. Definitely recommend!
The Mai Tai Bar establishment offered us a pleasant coastal ambiance with music and is reasonably priced providing us with a relaxed Hawaiian setting for a meal. The wine selection and cocktails are great and the cuisine is of high quality. I recommend this restaurant; however, please be aware that due to its popularity, wait times may be experienced. It’s worth the wait. If you go at the right time you may get a seat right in the beach.

Beautiful location, fantastic food and the drinks don't get much better. Can't help but savor every moment.
This is the place in Waikiki that is not to be missed any time of day.

If we’re being honest, this rating is 100% about the cocktails, the beachfront setting, and the service — because the food prices are… wild.
That said: the cocktails? Top tier.
I had their spin on a Trader Vic’s ‘44 and the Whitewash with the foam on top, and both were beautifully balanced, strong, and well executed. Exactly what you want when you’re sipping with your toes practically in the sand.
The location is unbeatable — literally cocktails on the beach — and it’s especially lovely around sunset. Service was attentive, friendly, and never rushed, which matters at this price point.
Now… the reason this is four stars instead of five:
The food pricing is just not it. When chicken strips are pushing $30, I have to draw the line. Unless money truly doesn’t matter to you, I’d skip the food and focus on what they do best.
Bottom line:
Highly recommend for cocktails on the beach, especially at golden hour. Amazing drinks, great vibes, excellent service.
Just maybe eat somewhere else first — or don’t look at the prices. 😅🍹

Beach at the doorstep, great atmosphere, live music, good food at reasonable prices given the location, great place to hangout and enjoy the breeze and sounds of the waves of Waikiki Beach

We had a lovely table right next to the beach - loved the people watching along with our delicious lobster rolls and taro chips. A cold athletic beer was perfect - incredible service! So good we went back day two!
