Best Waterfront Restaurants in Ala Moana

Food was delicious, and loved the ambiance with the live music, dim lighting, and the restaurant being right next to the ocean. Me and my wife went on Valentine’s Day and we were able to get in right at our reservation time. She had the margarita pizza and I had the ribeye with jalapeño mashed potatoes and Swiss chard. The jalapeño mashed potatoes were incredible and so was the rib eye, which was cooked perfectly medium and tasted better than most nice steak houses I’ve been to. I would always recommend monkey pod to people looking for a good place to eat with a nice environment and setting.

Absolutely an amazing dinner with my girlfriends there! The food was amazing and came out so fast. View and atmosphere was great. Our server Blaine was the best. No complaints, perfect 5 stars overall

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!

Great, happy place with beautiful views.

Love this restaurant. We ALWAYS eat here at least once while we are at Hilton Hawaiian Village. After eating, we went to the bar and spent over an hour there, visiting with other patrons, as well as the bartenders. Love the Aloha atmosphere
