Best Brunch Restaurants in Kalihi-Palama

My husband and I went to Ruscello for Valentine's Day and were running late because of heavy traffic. I called the restaurant to let them know we were running late. They were very understanding. I ordered the filet mignon and asked that it be cooked medium. It was cooked perfectly and was tender and delicious.

Great restaurant! Good service, delicious food and options and nice ambience. Not a place for an intimate quiet dinner but great restaurant to go for excellent food with good company.

A friend was in town for only two days and we had missed getting together on her prior visits. I chose Hau Tree lanai for brunch and it was perfect. She liked the choices on the menu and the ocean just outside. The food, service and ambiance were their usual best. My favorite restaurant for 20 or more years and am always impressed.

This is not our first visit to the Hula Grill and will not be the last. This visit was for my husbands 60th birthday. I wish we were seated at the rail but table was just fine. The service and food were both perfect. The new bartender had trouble making a bay breeze, kept forgetting the pineapple, but they corrected it fast and without attitudes :-) grateful. I appreciated that the music playing was Hawaiian. We come to Hawaii almost yearly and Hawaiian music is what we want to hear when having a meal. So thank you Hula Grill for a great meal and great atmosphere. Was wonderful. Oh FISH “ALL” was cooked to perfection!

Love the Rissoto. Had some great appetizers and main dishes. Perfect dry martinis. Lots of interesting specials to choose from on the menu.
