The staff here is so nice, even when it&#39;s packed. I went with a big group and they were super patient with us splitting the check, which is always a hassle. Made the whole night way easier.

Arnold&#39;s Beach Bar has quickly become my favorite spot in Waikiki. The bartenders are amazing, and the drinks are always strong and tasty. It&#39;s a great place to enjoy good energy and have a great time!

No. 9 of Bars in Honolulu

Found this family-run spot and loved the mushroom linguine. Their house red was a surprisingly good match with the earthy flavors. The curry noodle was solid too, though the soup could&rsquo;ve been a touch warmer. Will be back for that wine pairing.

The pho here is so filling! Perfect for catching up with friends. We all got the big bowls for around $12, which is a steal. Left totally stuffed. The broth was nice and hot, too.

If you&#39;re looking for a great breakfast spot in Hawaii, Surf Lanai is the place to be. The combination of good food, beautiful views, and friendly service makes it a top choice.

Restaurant in The Royal Hawaiian, A Luxury Collection Resort, Waikiki

Been coming here for years. They grill the meat fresh, not sitting under a lamp. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. Can get a little busy at lunch, so you might wait a bit.

This tiny sushi spot is so easy to walk right past. But the fish here is just so fresh and clean. The BYOB was a nice bonus for our casual dinner. Street parking was fine on a Tuesday night.

A solid breakfast spot, and the portions are huge for the price. Got the classic eggs benedict and could barely finish it. Perfect for a quick, filling meal before exploring the island.

Just had their chocolate haupia shake for the first time. It was so creamy and rich, really hit the spot after the main course. That&#39;s the one thing I&#39;ll be thinking about for a while.

Decent vegan options for our group. The atmosphere was lively, with some live music drifting in from next door. A solid choice for a casual dinner.

Great spot just a stroll from the beach. The self-service kiosks made ordering a breeze.

Solid quick lunch spot. The noodles are fresh, veggies are crisp. Good portions for the price. Always the same quality when I&#39;m in a rush. Gets the job done.

Been coming here for years. The spring rolls are crispy, chicken salad is fresh and generous. It&#39;s a lot of food, so bring a friend or skip lunch. Classic spot.

Been coming here for years, the carbonara&#39;s always solid. Steak&#39;s good too. Gets packed on weekends, had to wait a bit last time. Still, you know what you&#39;re getting.

The live music was a nice touch. But I was really impressed by the fresh ingredients in their poke bowl - you could tell the fish was just caught. Perfect for a light, healthy meal after the beach.

Volcano ramen is a solid quick lunch. Big portion for the price, which is great. The spot is small and cozy. Staff was nice and got my order out fast.

Been coming here for years, usually drop by early to avoid the crowd. Their salads are always crisp and fresh, and I never skip dessert. Service is friendly, they know how to handle special requests. A solid spot in the neighborhood.

Sam the owner really took care of us. He walked us through the menu and handled my friend&#39;s food allergy without any fuss. That kind of personal attention is hard to find.

The gelato is fantastic, really creamy and rich. The sandwiches, though... they&#39;re just okay. Kind of dry, like they&#39;ve been sitting there. Feels like they&#39;re not on the same level as the ice cream.

The seared ahi was a solid gluten-free choice. It was prepared well and I liked that the menu clearly marked those options. The service was decent, though a bit slow at the end.

I like supporting local spots. The coffee here is good, strong brew. Food is solid too, especially the breakfast plate. Prices are fair for Waikiki, which is a plus.

The Old Fashioned here is the real deal. They use a rye that has a nice spicy kick, and the orange peel is expressed perfectly. It&#39;s not overly sweet like some places make it. That&#39;s what I come for.

The cocktails at Bar Leather Apron are nothing short of masterpieces. Each drink is crafted with precision and creativity, making it a unique experience for cocktail enthusiasts.

The in-house lasagna portion is huge, worth the price. Had to box most of it. Their house red was a solid, unpretentious pairing for the rich layers.

The gluten-free mochiko chicken is a standout. Really fresh ingredients, and it&#39;s one of the best versions I&#39;ve had.

The breakfast burrito is solid. Eggs are fluffy, bacon crisp, sausage patty has a decent spice. Hash browns inside could be crispier, but for the price it&#39;s a reliable bite. Gets the job done.

The chicken spring rolls and halo halo dessert were so good. Perfect for a group brunch, and the semi-private area was a nice touch.

The grilled cheese and fries were so good, I almost got a second one for the road. It&#39;s the kind of simple, satisfying food that&#39;s perfect for catching up with friends. We just kept chatting and picking at the basket.

Stopped by for happy hour after work. The potstickers and poke tacos were solid for sharing with a beer. Live music was a nice touch, made the place feel lively. Good spot to unwind.
