    Excellent evening, completely satisfied with every aspect of this experience. Prix fixe menu, the optional add-ons/substitutions, the non-alcoholic beverages and options, the teas we had at the end… everything we could have asked for was provided perfectly without even our asking. Servers/staff were all top-notch with explanations and attentiveness and warm friendliness. The food and the flavors were such a delight, really need to make this a regular dining spot! Thank you Miro Kaimuki!

    Since this is our third visit here, it’s obvious that NatuRe Waikiki never disappoints. From the time you anxiously arrive till you reluctantly depart, the level of customer service, appreciation, attention to detail, food presentation, how our server describes what we’re about to enjoy, the food quality and timing of all courses is highly orchestrated. The prix fixe menu inclusive of fine wines is available in both veg and non-veg options. This restaurant is a must for any foodie when visiting Honolulu.
