Try the shiitake tsukuneya, daikon salad, tebasaki, miso tofu & uni kamameshi :)
Try the Home Made Tofu - Yum
Paitan Bijin nabe is amazing
There are only two seats in here, so plan on take out. The food is awesome though, and really affordable. Best plate you'll find for six bucks.
There are 6 seats now! ; )
In order to get the "Special Bentos" it is a 10 order minimum A week in advance. : )
Deep Fried Red-Rock fish was awesome, from my experience as a genuine Japanese guy.
Ask for a dirty greygoose martini and say I recommended it.
The katsu is good, of course. But they have foie gras nigiri! It’s winner!!!
Great facilities , very friendly staff, nice beach and sporting facilities plus , Sunday brunch !!! Big thumbs up !!!
If you can swing a guest membership, try the sashimi or sushi rooms, so fresh! Their happy hour is 4-6 with the best mai-tais and amazing, romantic sunsets
Everyone is so lovely here - very family oriented
Gyoza Pizza, Chicken Karaage, Beef Tongue, Pork Belly and a Taco Rice are my favorite dishes at Naru #BestofHawaiibyKalani
Coffee awamori is perfect for in between bites, cleanse that palette! Also AHI YUKKE OR BUST
Amazing service and sashimi!
One of the OGs of Waikiki with awesome poolside drinks and rooms with private balconies overlooking the ocean and Diamond Head. Try the namesake bourbon tiki drink invented here in the ‘30s.
Try the Dessert
The Halekulani is famous for its Polynesian-style massages at its spa and the House Without a Key bar’s unbeatable Mai Tais.
Don't miss out on the fresh and warm Fabulous Phö.
Try the Curry! It is really good!
The royal noodle soup is so awesome. It's my comfort food along with the spring rolls
Their turn-down service is stellar. It's a treat to get back to the room to see our next gift.
Cigar friendly hotel. Not in the rooms but on the lanai ground level outside the bar. The servers will come out and serve you if you let them know you are out there having a cigar.
You can enjoy traditional Hawaiian food, authentic Japanese food and international delicacies here.
Ask for a table by the beach and enjoy some brunch.
Have afternoon tea. Little finger sandwiches, pastries, live music, champagne, berries, all facing the ocean! What could be better?
Awesome cocktails. Try the Surfrider Mai Tai. One cocktail and you’re anyone’s two and you’re everyone’s 😂
Definitely try the beef tongue. Yeah, it doesn't sound good. But it's one of the best cuts of meat for yakiniku and Gyukaku always has great quality beef.
Happy hour everyday from 11:30AM to 6:30PM & from 9PM to closing!
Try the bistro harami, so similar to the harami but almost half the price! And the tofu salad too!
Awesome brunch, definitely worth it! Reservations can be hard though, so book early!
The best brunch ever with a fantastic ocean view and stunning gardens. Also great for lunch!
The banana macadamia nut pancakes with coconut syrup are amazing.
First time in Hawaii, found this place in a free tourist mag, can't believe my luck! Entrees lovely, appetizer sampler & dessert on par with Morimotos - seriously! Amazing service too. 5 star
Great service. Nice ambiance. Food was awesome.
Highly recommend the abalone and lobster.
If you like garlic, try the shrimp scampi zucchini fettuccine! It was delicious. :)
The avocado club egg rolls are the bomb. Also, skip the wait by going to the bar! Open seating, full menu, no age restriction, and if you're lucky, Sara will take care of you. She's the best!
Amazing place for good pizza and pasta! Must try spagetti bolognese with mushrooms... Soo goood! 😍😍😍
Pan roasted mahi is fabulous. So is the pineapple tart with mac nut ice cream.
Delicious but very pricey. We loved the steak and especially the desserts.
Great views and seafood. Often discounts available through the hotel. Ask about the specials.
Any steak on menu is fantastic& crab cake appetizer with cheese bread can't be beat.
Audy Kimura sings Wed-Sun. For a tip he'll be honored to play you his 80's hit "Friends and Lovers". Rack of Lamb is finger-licking good and carved tableside. Save room for a special flambé dessert!
Make sure you save room for dessert. They are known for their flambé. Choose from bananas foster, strawberries, cherries or chocolate.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
