21 Best Steakhouses near Kailua

“Best hole in the wall. Steak Plate with rice, salad/ranch, and then adding the BEST teriyaki sauce in the world to the whole thing is our family’s go to! My husband and I share the large plate usually but sometimes we both get regulars to have some for later it’s so good!

Always always call ahead!“

“First time in Hawaii but Buzzes is a great restaurant that has great food and drinks. The staff is outstanding the are really nice and caring for there customers. I will definitely come back to buzzes. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone that comes and visits that ms never been to Hawaii.“

“Real good aesthetic bar/grill. Takes about 15-20mins to get your food. Servers were nice and on top of getting us water and asking if we’re okay.
The Salmon- was a 6.9/10. The fish itself was very soft and broke apart easily and the skin came off smoothly. The dish itself had pasta with pepper, lemon, butter, tomatoes, onion, and peas. Didn’t taste very fish like which was good, but the noodles had little to no flavor. Overall decent place to go out and dress casual/old money.
Didn’t get drinks but they have a bar and do all sorts of drinks.“

“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“

“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.“

“Friendly service and great food“

“Our condo was right above steak shack so it was so convient for us, and to eat whilst watching the sun go down on the beach. superb location, the food is out of this world, so very very tasty, such a popular place. 🥰 10/10“

“The salad bar was well stocked with a variety of delicious foods. Once back at your chair you’ll get plenty of choices of meat! They are all great I would recommend the house special top sirloin. The drinks were well made and our waiter was the bomb. Would come back again!“

“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 🤣“

“Overall
​ | |
​To start, the service and atmosphere here were absolutely fantastic,our waiter was incredibly prompt and kind throughout the entire meal.
​As for the food, it was overall quite good, though there were a few mixed reviews at our table. The jambalaya was a highlight with a great ratio of rice to protein, though I personally prefer the heads to be peeled on the shrimp. The nachos felt a little stale to my taste, and someone in my party mentioned that the lobster noodles weren’t cooked quite right.
​That said, everyone in our group enjoyed the experience and the rest of the food. It's a great spot, and we'd definitely come back for the excellent hospitality!“

“The best luau we have ever been too. Very glad we brought the kids and grandkids. There was plenty of things to do, like temporary tattoos, head bands made from leaves, small shops all over the grounds with various foods and products. Teaching the kids to hula was quite fun. The food was good as were the drinks. The show was outstanding. All the performers were available for photographs after the show. Overall an excellent time...“

“Relaxed, casual, and full of local charm, Cutlery Steakhouse gives cozy neighborhood steakhouse vibes with just the right touch of romance from the dim, moody lighting. It’s perfect for a special occasion without feeling overly formal.

Parking is very small and tight, so be prepared. I was lucky enough to squeeze my Tacoma along the parallel wall and carefully reverse out with guidance from the friendly parking lot staff (major clutch moment 😅).

We also loved the surprise of the light-up menu, we actually laughed because it was the only bright thing in the room. Such a fun little touch that totally fits the dark, intimate ambiance.

Service was great. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and consistently checked on us for refills or anything we needed. She explained the 2-hour dining limit upfront and let us know the main entrée would take about 45 minutes. We had no issues and finished right on time without feeling rushed.

Don’t skip the sides: duck fat fries, truffle mash, Brussels sprouts, and a generous escargot perfect for sharing. The 16oz Nakamura Cut Prime Rib with bone marrow au jus and horseradish cream was juicy, flavorful, and easily fed two, and the leftovers were just as good the next day.

And dessert? Non-negotiable. Mud pie with Oreo crust and two crème brûlées… because one is simply not enough. 🤎✨“

“We really loved the dishes, especially the foie gras, raviolone, and scallops, but honestly everything we tried at this restaurant was delicious. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to try the duck Wellington because, as I understood, it had to be requested when booking the table. But we’ll definitely come back to try that dish too 😊“

“I could eat here every day pricey but it's Hawaii what's isn't“

“We opted out of our reservation for the dining room and ate in the bar. Didn't catch the bartender's name but she was wonderful. The Mai Tai was great and our food was delicious. It was a thoroughly enjoyable meal.“

“It was a nice place and the servers are great.“

“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.“

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

“absolutely delicious!“

“While visiting Hawaiʻi, I found myself coming back here every day for lunch—and for good reason. The steak plate with rice and kimchee was absolutely incredible. The steak was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. The rice was fresh and paired perfectly with the savory steak, while the kimchee added just the right amount of kick and balance to the meal. Great prices too.“

“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!“
