Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Waimānalo

Thank you for the wonderful service you provided on our family's anniversary.

The food has been delicious both times we’ve eaten there.

As residents from the island's west side, we were glad we did not cancel our reservation. We were glad OpenTable checked because we were so busy that we forgot about it. It was a beautiful Hawaii day to drive and be at PBH. When asked if we wanted the brunch buffet, we went for it instead of our original plan to do ala carte. The place was not packed, so it was a relaxing time to try the buffet, and we enjoyed everything we picked. The servers were attentive and cheerful, not stressed by the holiday bustle. At the same time, we are an "easy to please" party. We did not fret when we could not be moved to a table with lesser foot traffic. Other notes - The buffet price was right, and parking was validated. The resort hotel had a festive holiday ambiance. The restaurant had a Japan-style restroom, which was to our liking as well.

What could be better than a view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach while you eat? The food! Our dinners were outstanding. My wife said it was the best steak she’d ever had, and my daughter said the same about here pasta. All four of our meals were excellent, no one was disappointed. My only complaint is that we were all too full to even share a piece of Hula pie!

The entire experience was wonderful, starting with a very warm and welcoming Hostess who checked us in for our reservation and explained some of the menu to us. After being seated, we were readily greeted by our server, who was very personable and attentive to our questions and needs throughout the dinner service. He patiently explained the differences in our wine choices, suggested various dishes, and explained some of the local sourcing for our dishes, which we really appreciated. Our appetizer and dinner dishes were delicious, fresh, and hot! There was a nice pacing between our appetizer and dinner and we savored every morsel. And our server made sure our water glasses were filled and asked how our meals were throughout. We will definitely come back!
