MW Restaurant Reviews
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!
Butter was too sweet and a little fishy. The short rib was too salty. The specialty Kanpachi was just ok. Maybe expecting too much. Taste not our liking. A little overpriced.

MW Restaurant provides a memorable dining experience, with guests praising the delicious food and friendly service. Located on the second floor above a high-end car dealership, it is a hidden gem that offers an elegant and intimate atmosphere, perfect for date nights or special evenings out. The menu features standout dishes like duck confit, lilikoi brulee, and impressive fish options such as butterfish and mochi-crusted Kona kampachi. Customers have enjoyed dishes like Kanpachi ceviche, which is lemon-y and refreshing, and Miso-Glazed Butterfish, described as divine—tender, buttery, and cooked to perfection. The restaurant also offers popular items like poke nachos and the restaurant’s favorite Mochi kampachi. The Kine Mushroom medley was noted for its delicious mix of mushrooms and textures, while the truffle short rib, though not strongly truffle-flavored, was praised for being tender and flavorful. Customers appreciate the variety and quality of the food, with many noting the perfection of dishes like Ludovici chicken and pork hash dumplings. The wait staff are described as exceptionally polite, helpful, and friendly, with some guests mentioning that the staff remembers them and accommodates food allergies. Valet parking and early seating are smooth, costing $6 but deemed worth it for the overall experience. Despite one comment about a not too friendly receptionist, the restaurant's warm, professional, and attentive staff contribute to a fantastic dining experience. Guests consistently report looking forward to returning, especially after enjoying the complimentary chocolate cake and cookies. Overall, MW Restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience—refined yet relaxed, creative yet comforting—making it highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable evening in Honolulu.
