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.

Great beginning of the day! French toast is one of the best I have had and the Short Rib Benedict was amazing and one of the best on the island.

Can’t be beat. Historic hotel and classic dining on the beach. To be at the grand ole hotel is something special to me. I wish the pulled pork hash was still on the menu. Oh, well! I still ate well.

Very limited menu. I got the omelette, which wasfresh. But the sides (potatoes and polish sausage) cold and old. Coffee is good and the view is ideal.

Phenomenal breakfast with views of Waikiki. There’s a huge selection for breakfast and the staff were super attentive and helpful. We loved that you can sit under umbrellas while you wait for your table, the pink pancakes, presentation, and local dishes.

This is by far my favorite restaurant in Hawaii. They offer the most amazing breakfast, and that stack of scrumptious pink pancakes is every foodie's dream come true.

I have been counting down the days for the past two years to reunite my taste buds with this delectable plate of food, and I was not disappointed. I savored every last crumb.

I will be dreaming about this breakfast until my next trip to Hawaii. I highly recommend the Surf Lanai restaurant—10 out of 10!

The food is absolutely amazing, and the service is truly exceptional. You have gained a lifelong customer, Surf Lanai. XOXO

We ate here every morning during our stay at the Royal Hawaiian. (Breakfast was included with our stay.). The food is very good. We got to pick one entree from the menu in our included breakfast (the pancakes and the acai bowl were amazing). But what really made the breakfast great was our server Elaine. She was absolutely fantastic — so kind and detail oriented. She remember our (sometimes complicated) orders and got them exactly right. She brings so much joy to her job and made our stay at the Royal Hawaiian so much better!
