Best Hawaiian Restaurants in Kailua

Our stay here was definitely a 5 star experience. We visited last year, and brought our friends this year. The wait staff was friendly and got us sat down very quickly, our food and drinks were brought out in a timely manner, and both were well made. My husband and I shared the surf and turf as they have big portions, that plus dessert was perfect the two of us. The waitress we had, and even the manager, were very attentive in making sure our food was to our liking and that our experience was top notch. You definitely get what you pay for when you go to Lulu’s. I highly recommend to anyone especially for a date night. I also recommend sitting at the counter so you can enjoy the beauty of the Waikiki sunsets as you dine. Finally, my other favorite part is they have live music featuring local artists, and it’s always been enjoyable to listen to each one when we’ve gone. I love how they support locals. I can’t wait to go back.

The food and service was outstanding! Had the pork chops and fried rice. Portions were generous. Excellent value in the heart of a high priced tourist center.

I spent a very unforgettable night in my life, because I proposed to my boyfriend in the restaurant. Because it was a surprise for my boyfriend, every employee in the restaurant was secretly preparing for me. Save the flowers for me, play the prepared music for me, and give us cocktails. All this is so beautiful. My English is very poor, but the staff in the restaurant actively communicated with me. Everyone was very friendly to us. We got a lot of blessings, which made the night more meaningful. I love all of you. I will definitely visit you again next time I come to Hawaii.

Genius Lounge is a hidden gem in Waikiki! The food was absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and amazing flavors. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening. The service was friendly and attentive, making our dining experience even better. Highly recommend!

Been here at least 3 times. Love the food, particularly the build-your-own poke bowl option. Fries with Kewpie mayo are delicious. Service is great.
