About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
Our island is full of stories, none more inviting than the one told by the dish in front of you. Known for its modern take on Hawaiian comfort fare, Alaia embraces the community through its support of nearby Mauka Farms, telling their story through every plate, bite, and sip. Using unique, native produce such as apple bananas, Moloka'i sweet potatoes and tomatoes from Pele, a third generation farmer, our culinary team works in tune with the seasons. At Alaia we reap the bounty from the mauka to the makai, working with hand-selected fruits and vegetables from our farm to your table​. We let the quality and simplicity of the ingredients speak for themselves. And we love what they have to say.

    The food was excellent but the service and ambience was that of a nice restaurant not a Ritz Carlton. The meal sequencing was a bit off as well as it began rushed. We sat outside but ended up listening to the restaurant air conditioning which was a bit noisy. That said, the food preparation, taste and quality was excellent. The service was friendly and attentive, and the price was reasonable for Oahu.

    記念日で伺いました!が、ベースのサービスがそもそもよかったのでプラスアルファのサービスが霞むほどでした。安くはないけど笑 美味しかったし、サービスも素晴らしかった。さすがリッツに入ってるレストラン!って思いました。ごちそうさまでした!

    Our server Thomas was amazing! We asked what he would recommend and everything he said was phenomenal. He was very attentive. We would recommend eating here both for the food and the service if you're lucky enough to have him!

    We had one of the most outstanding waitress, Denise, for our meal. She was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. The food was also the best we had in the Turtle Bay Area.

    Despite the beautiful location, the prices are so beyond reasonable and our service was just OK. Hostess was rude over our table placement and our server simply did his job and that’s it. The food was done well and the only prominent part of the experience.
