“Our first time in Hawaii and we went here on our last night. This experience was amazing. The performers were incredibly talented and the Chief was hilarious and entertaining. We will be back.”
“Noe was a very awesome experience when it comes to the service and the atmosphere. The seating at sundown was awesome, the appreciation to the Hawaiian culture was top shelf. The only let down was the reason you go to a restaurant. The food was good, don't get me wrong, but for the price of the food, my wife and I expected more. It was an A+ experience with C+ food.”
“By far one of the best meals my family and I ever had. The canoe appetizer was off the charts and the meals were even better. The ahi tuna and both the 16 is cab steak and the wagyu A-5 6oz was incredible and the desserts were even better. Highly recommend”

“Having a hot pot after snorkeling is definitely a good choice ??? i like the atmosphere when I came in all staffs are nice just like you are visiting your aunt's home.
We ordered curry and beef pho base, they made by many ingredients makes both more flavorful.
There are many choices of broth and ingredients. You can make your own style hot pot!!”

“while in Oahu if you can get to Kapahulu worth the trip to MY CAFE! great food and service, the Maladsda hopia pancakes are to die for sweet great crunch outside inside light and fluffy!
Vegetarian options: there are lots of options and items you csn tweak to make your own”
“Great little sushi place in Kapolei. Comparable to other local on-demand sushi spots, Sushi Bay has great food, service time, and seating when we went. The selection isn't quite as large as some others, and a few items were just a little lacking, but still great. Would visit again. Mahalo”

“We highly recommend Moani island Bistro.The owners have created a wonderful choice of food and all of the staff are awesome! Their food was delicious and the wait staff especially Raina and the two brothers that work the bar were so much fun. The owner came out and introduced herself. We loved it so much we went three times on our stay! 10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Amazing, fun, exciting experience! The show was spectacular! Such a great way to spend an evening in Aulani. The food was not bad, they brought a bento box for my daughter so that was great. The drinks were really good and the bartenders were friendly, approachable, and even remembered my drink order after the first time!
I believe you can start making reservations as early as 6 months. We did the preferred seating, your seats are already assigned. Meaning, doesn't matter how early you arrive you won't get a better seat. Seating goes by when you ordered your tickets, so purchase the tickets as soon as possible. We did get front row seats so it worked out. We also did get there early and we're first in line. There are a few activities that take place so getting there early is probably the better idea.”
“Love having lunch here! Amazing service and friendly laid/back vibe. MarilouA was beyond wonderful, we came here multiple days for lunch during our trip, the food was delicious, views were perfection overlooking the lagoon and we can’t wait to come back next time!”

“Small shop in a shopping center. Typical low-rent decor and layout. Incredible banh mi. Best I've had since living here, and I'm kind of obsessed with them. The BBQ pork is flavorful, the filings are balanced, and the bread is perfection.
The summer rolls were good, and the peanut sauce was top notch. My husband loved his pho and combination bahn mi.
Highly recommend for the food.”
“First time here for this local resident! I've driven past this intersection for decades and have no idea when this business popped up. Great location, parking, outdoor seating (kid and dog friendly), and a solid, healthy menu. I had the vegetarian burrito with tofu, and scarfed it down before remembering to take a picture. That's how good it was. A trickier proposition when it's raining, but that's also when the flies leave the area.”
“We went here twice for breakfast while staying at Aulani. It was a cheaper option, and the food was wonderful. The bacon jalapeno fried rice hit the spot without breaking the bank. We shared the fruit pancakes with that and were very satisfied. We walked, but there were a few parking spots.”
“Assaggio in Kapolei always has delicious and visually appealing food. The service is courteous, and they strive to provide a friendly atmosphere. The Bread is unbelievable I have to stop after the second basket due to the food I ordered. I tried the New York steak medium rare and the Shrimp Scampi. Everything was great and I definitely recommend them for your dining options.”
“Really good food and great atmosphere. Only issue is pizza little pricey. Don’t get me wrong, great quality taste and everything but just a tad high. Would definitely eat there again.”

“Visited this place twice and enjoyed it both times. Their menu suggests a recommended extra topping for each ramen, which I think is worth the extra 2 dollars or so. The first time, I had a chicken soup ramen with wontons and chili oil (the extra topping). I enjoyed the wontons and the fried onions. The spicy ramen went well with the calpico drink I got, which was sweet with a yoghurt flavor. The second time, I had calamari appetizer with spicy mayo, and the tanaka classic ramen with parmesan cheese powder (the extra topping). It had a very creamy tonkotsu broth with char siu pork and lots of fried onions as well. The cheese mostly sank to the bottom of the soup but that was alright. The food is on the salty side but quite delicious overall. Had a strawberry ramune with that, which is a soda with a marble covering the top.”
“Takeout only. Get your freshly made bento here. The price is great and it's delicious!
I got the spam musubi and the ume onigiri along with their poke bowl.
Great spot to just grab lunch for later that day.
They do have military and senior discounts on the weekends.
Overall a great spot to grab the lunch to go.”

“Delicious with an amazing view! If you can score reservations just before sunset it’s magnificent to watch. The wine pairing option was the way to go!”
Cheap Eats
“I was at Best Buy for a while before learning I'd be waiting for techs to personalize my purchase which could've taken up to 4.5 for them to get to. Supervisor Alondra suggested I go to a Saimen place, La Tour & another place. I walked over and into La tour. The menu looked great! I saw a roast beef dip sandwich I may have chosen but when I saw a "Falafel" sandwich I was very intrigued as I never saw this on any menu at a casual restaurant in Waikiki area. OMG...that sandwich was 😍 unexpectedly⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive! 😋😋 It had noodle shaped crisp (white color) pieces of pickled turnip ( I think that's what it tasted like- please confirm or correct me?) and same shaped carrots, a perfect amount of tasty-sweet & slighty spicy sauce on a outer layer of thin crisp (perhaps it was slightly toasted?) but soft inside, square edged sub roll? I still have a little over 1/2 left! Love Falafels but am used used to the normal style of it served with a cool creamy sauce (maybe cucumber) in a toasted Pita bread. This seemed like an Asian style spin off! If they deliver in Waiks, I will likely order it again as it's Too far/expensive via car to travel there. The cold brew coffee was good also and I tried "Oat creamer" for the 1st time and liked it! Thank you ladies for the very friendly service 😊 ( I was a host at CF for almost 9yrs,😉 and also trained many hosts.) and it was my first time ever "Eating in Public" (as it also wasn't a planned adventure) and taking off my mask. People were over 10 ft away and 12 feet away from my table. more people did line up for take out as I stayed for at least an hour until almost 4pm-ish.”
“I'm literally coming here as much as I can because I'm moving off island. This is by far the best phone place here in kapolei!!! Hands down my go too for banh mi sandwich!, when I'm feeling sick ( pho ) is it!! You'll feel better!!! Spring rolls are to die for to eat as an appetizer!!!”
“It’s tough to find truly good Mexican food in Hawaii, but Taqueria El Ranchero in Kapolei was a total win! We started with chips and salsa along with the chorizo queso – both were full of flavor and a great way to kick things off. For our main dishes, we had tamales, tacos, and elote. Everything was delicious! The tamales were just a little overcooked, but still really tasty and clearly homemade.
What really stood out, besides the food, was the service. Even though the restaurant was busy, our young waiter (I didn’t catch his name) was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Our food came out quickly, and the whole experience felt smooth and well-managed.
On top of all that, the prices were surprisingly affordable – such a great value. We’ll definitely be going back. This place is a must-visit if you’re craving authentic Mexican food on Oahu!”
“Love the cucumber kim chee. Large cuts. The mac salad is perfect, not salty and not heavy yet creamy. I can taste and feel the ingredients used are high quality. The next morning my body felt good (no swollen face). They don't use MSG. I love "I Love K-BBQ."
Vegetarian options: My college aged daughter is a vegetarian. She was super impressed with the veggie selection. She ate her entire veggie plate and two scoops rice.”

“I really love the sushi here especially their lemon drop roll, the only problem I have is that its just a little cramped in the restaurant making walking by other guests a little hard.”
“Would like to thank Raye for her awesome recommendation..she is the best waitress I ever encountered.”
“Favorite place to go on island for drinks. Always keeping it classy 🍻 Great prices and great selection of games to play too.”

“We had just ate at Teriyaki Madness in Newark NJ about 2 weeks ago, so when we saw it here on our vacation we decided to stop. Food was amazing, service was awesome. We got chicken potstickers, crab rangoon and teriyaki bowls. I’m very picky about my teriyaki and this was fantastic! Highly recommend!”
