    Nothing beats the view if you are fortunate enough to get a table by the edge facing the ocean. We reserved our table on thanksgiving day in time to see the sun go down and a sunset over the ocean in Hawaii is very hard to beat. It does indeed create memories. The food was ok. But honestly the service was great and the atmosphere was what it was all about. Come here for that if not for anything else.

    Last night, I had an exceptional dining experience at Ruth’s Chris in Hawaii. From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and professional. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. The steaks were cooked to perfection, with the signature sizzle that makes Ruth’s Chris stand out. The sides and desserts were equally delicious, making the entire meal unforgettable. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a special night out or just treating yourself to a top-tier meal. If you’re in Hawaii, I can’t recommend this location enough. It’s a must-visit for steak lovers or anyone seeking a high-quality dining experience. I’ll definitely be back!

    Being a solo traveler, one usually gets stuck in a corner somewhere, but, I requested the lounge seating (lanai was completely booked) asking if possible could I get a view of the ocean. They sat me at a perfect little table directly in front of the setting sun! I couldn’t have been happier!! Service was impeccable, the food fantastic and the Guava Daiquiri a MUST!!!

    Excellent service, beautiful view of ocean at sunset. The restaurant was loud because it was busy but we were still able to carry on a conversation. The live music was amazing! Food was great, especially the dessert. The Mai Tai was fantastic. We will be back!
