“I have been here several times over the past year for "high tea." It is always amazing, from the food & service to the beautiful ocean and courtyard views. We celebrated our anniversary with friend from out of state and everything was wonderful. We all chose the Moana Classic Tea with finger sandwiches, sweet offerings, tropical sorbet and tea (we each chose a different flavor). A few of my favorites (this time) were the Ratatouille Tart and the Smoked Salmon Mousse Blini, but I really enjoyed them all.Our friend has a food allergy and our server was very accommodating. He made other suggestions to some of the sandwiches and all of the "exchanges" were fabulous. Each time we have been, the menu has changed, although most of the tea's are the same flavors (only 2 or 3 have changed). The quality of the food is the same (5 stars)I would definitely suggest Moana Surfer Rider - The Veranda at the Beachhouse for all of your special occasions.Parking: The Valet parking is free with validation of "High Tea" service. Otherwise, there is parking across the street at International Market Place garage (I am not sure what the current rates are).“

“Sean stands out as a knowledgeable, friendly, professional, attentive part of the Ruth Chris team in Honolulu. My husband and I were very impressed by his effort to make a birthday celebration a relaxing, enjoyable, memorable evening for us. He checked on us to ensure we were enjoying our meal. The salad was so fresh, the creamed spinach as always was delicious. The filet and ribeye cooked perfectly. Thank you for a wonderful experience.“

“I used it for my last dinner in Hawaii during my honeymoon from July 28th to August 3rd last year. When I entered the store, I was greeted with a smile, and when I sat down at the desk, the staff spread flowers on the desk, which made me very happy. Also, while we were eating, a senior person in a suit was on his honeymoon. ], the staff responded with a smile, and the staff said in Japanese, "Are you full?" (^^)] I was able to talk to her in a friendly manner, and it became a very good memory. It was my first time abroad, so I was really glad I came. It was a rare sight to see the final dessert set on fire, so I was really happy (;_;) I definitely want to go again, so thank you!“

“We had an absolutely amazing experience! I ordered the vegan 4 course and my friend had the Chef's 10 course. First of all, it's difficult to find a vegan course menu from a fine dinning restaurant, the taste was outstanding! From the, beet salad, curried chow fun noodles, chickpea Madras over rice and finally the mango tapioca..every dish was perfection! My friend enjoyed every dish as well she said everything was absolutely delightful. She especially had high praises for the Samoan crab shumai, duck confit katsu bao, squid luau agnolotti and the condensed, flavorful, out of this world 90 day dry age beef.The strawberry panna cotta was to die for! First unsure if she could finish a 10 course meal but she finished everything happily! We had the most delightful first class dinner, thank you PAI Honolulu. You are one of the BEST Restaurant in town!“

“Outstanding experience during our trip to Hawaii.They offer a full plant-based/vegan meal which was very tasty. Even my partner who sometimes eats meat/seafood didn‘t miss anything. Interesting natural wines. The service was also friendly and attentive. They took care of my special diet requirements.We had a great stay, this restaurant definitely stood out during our three weeks in Hawaii.Remark: Google‘s description „modern French cuisine“ is a bit misleading, it is a fine-dining restaurant but it rather serves Hawaiian-inspired, partly local fusion cuisine.Vegetarian options: They offer one full vegan set menu.Dietary restrictions: I had the request to leave our seaweed/high iodine food which was met.“

“Had breakfast for dinner here this week without a reservation. Our server Saye (I know I spelled this wrong, sorry!) was unbelievably welcoming and kind. She offered a substitution option for my crab brioche that was a fantastic and the overall experience was just wonderful. I had a coworker who was raving about having to go back here and I can understand why. This a a must-eat location!“

“Great local coffee shop that acts as a gathering place for the community. Staff is always pleasant. They are helpful to make sure your order is exactly as you’d like. The coffee is sourced from small roasters. Tea is by Rishi. The cookies are excellent. The red miso cookie is incredible and a must try. Every time I have been here, it has been busy. However, the staff does a great job of getting quality products out quickly. When I go to Kaimuki this is a must stop.“

“Beautiful interior design and very clean looking. Our server was Anthony, he was great. Very attentive and friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and makes great conversation every time he comes by the table. Got to try a bit of everything on the menu, and everything was great. Loved the Ulu Two Ways, Saimin Soup Dumplings, and Braised Short Rib (so tender and flavorful, we could've had two more servings!) Sad that we weren't able to try the Pinakbet since I was looking forward to trying something I'm familiar with, but I understand. The Fried Ube Potato Pie was so good and a great way to finish off the meal. They also offer Dino Nuggets for the kids in a cool dinosaur plate so that's great too! Overall had an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend this restaurant.“

“Great food. Steve and Ryan were excellent! Best service I've received so far. We got the paletas and it didn't disappoint. If you don't like a drink on the menu ask Steve and he'll whip you something up to fit your liking.“

“Made a reservation for 5 people at 6:00 PM, was a few minutes behind seating us but not a big deal. Ordered the Specialty Thick Cut Pork Loin Katsu set which was delicious. I'm a fan of both pork and chicken katsu's and felt the quality was worth it. Note the specialty orders they only carry so much per day. Late Dinner times might not have any left.Any Katsu set comes with unlimited Miso Soup, Cabbage, and rice. Had at least 1 refill of each side which was perfect for me after being in the sun and hiking all day.Would recommend a reservation for any party bigger than 2. Saw some folks ordering take out. We did not park here as our hotel was 1 mile away and decided to walk instead of taking the rental car.“

“The food was great. At first, we were put off . We got there a little early than our reservation. There online website says they're open at 4:30 and their door sign says 5 PM.. we asked to wait outside because it was raining and we had a 96 year-old aunt with a walker. We were told to wait outside.. disappointed . The lady should be careful, she was a little rude. If we didn't have an elder with us, we would have left. Our waiter Lei made all the difference. He was attentive. He was very helpful with the menu and we really enjoyed our food choices. This is a little hidden gem. Lei saved our experience.“

“Beautiful restaurant. Service was great and the food was excellent. Our table had the pork chop and the Butter Fish, both perfect. Only negative comment, there was no one there. Our dinner from 6pm to 8pm on a Saturday night and the restaurant never was at half capacity so no buzz, some may like that.“

“Food was good (when in Oahu, it’s hard to find as good quality we’ve found so we’re comparing this place to other Oahu places- not mainland).They use San Marzano tomatoes so the sauces are that good true Italian flavor.Portions are okay, and cost is high, but so is the island in general.It was SO LOUD and kind of crammed inside so don’t expect to be able to have a quiet table conversation. It’s as loud as a cafeteria.Our waiter was such an amazing person and was very helpful.We would eat here again for sure!“

“service is impeccable.atmosphere is elegant without being stuffy.cocktails are delicious.gelato dessert was good.Food is good, the pasta has a nice bite to it, the sardines pasta was great, the Bolognese has a hint of balsamic however it made the dish a bit too sweet. I had to counter the sweetness with chili pepper flakes and Parmesan.The salads are amazing!“

“I love this place! I'm visiting family and they suggested that I visit this cafe and both times I've got the Poke bowl (it's my favorite) the rest of my family let me try some of the other dishes that they got and they are all good! The employees here are very nice too. Next time I come here I need to try there breakfast.“

“This is on the second floor of the Honolulu design center, which is a large furniture store. You can access the restaurant by parking in their garage and take the escalator or elevator up. Not only is the food delicious and the cocktails perfect. The atmosphere has a nice setting as it’s got designer furniture, there was also live music with an entertainer playing and singing at the piano. If you’re looking for a fun evening out or special occasion, this is a great place to come.“
“We had a really nice, relaxing dinner here. It was a Wednesday and not crowded at all. The selection of really fun, unique cocktails was good and the small plates were very good (we had the chips/popcorn), asparagus and the salmon. It was a fun, quirky place. Our server was exceptional as well.“
“The service was excellent, but the food is a 3 star. The name of what I got was a banana foster loaf, but all it is is a banana cake... Pretty disappointing. The atmosphere was fine for an open seating in a store. Quiet and a good temperature. But not inviting. Good for chatting with friends, though.“

“Italian restaurant taken to us by a local ?They say this restaurant is 40 years old! I am even more pleased to hear that it is now run by a Korean owner who used to be a chef.The gnocchi came in a unique tomato sauce, and it was tastier than I expected! It wasn't greasy and blended really well with the other menu items.The food overall feels very healthy. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is really comfortable. Highly recommended!! ?“
“We had not been to the Kahala Hotel in 50+ years. It has changed ownership over the years, and the hotel has a new feel. Danny Kaleikini is no longer there and the local feel of the hotel is gone. We did enjoy a wonderful meal and listened to beautiful music at The Veranda, though. Next time I would like to visit the Plumeria Beach House.“
“The perfect Tuesday night bar. As the restaurants across the street are packed with people, this place is a haven of respite. Fear not, for neither the two alternate guests nor the bartender seem to be fans of small talk; this is the perfect location for those of us with a writers soul and a distaste for uncouth social interactions. (Four stars because the lights could be a tad dimmer, and the chairs are annoying but I guess the bartender should be allowed to see while he works )“

“This place is super cute, the service was incredible. It smelled so good when we walked in, so it was a hard choice but I had the lamb and my husband had the 4 cheese pizza and they were both very good. I highly recommend the brushetta it was fantastic! Desert we went with Gelato and I had espresso on mine. Perfect ending to a wonderful day“

“I was a little nervous about ordering a $20 burger, but it was worth it! The perfectly toasted brioche bun, the perfectly seasoned meat accompanied by an array of vegetables. I am often disappointed by the lack of love that goes into burger making. This place nailed it! The basil aïoli was so delicious. I had a side salad with mine and the dressing was also fab. Salad was kind of lackluster, but you could tell the greens are fresh. I was super impressed!“
