The lobster chowder was very good. The seared Spanish octopus was OK…not marinated enough, but good sear, and the portion size was too small. The roasted lamb was excellent. The duck breast was served to cool and it should have been cooked and served properly: score the fatty part and sear in a hot pan to remove a bunch of fat, then roast and served as slices (aguillets de magret de canard). The chocolate banana mousse dessert did not seem to have bananas in it.

I’ve made this reservation to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday at 5:15 PM in order to see the sunset in the ocean. We’ve been a little bit late for the reservation, but two ladies worked at Hau Tree were very nice and helpful. We were sitting in the Oceanside view for the dinner. The sunset in front of Hau Tree was so beautiful and amazing. Jordan was our server who was so kind and helpful. We ordered crispy Spanish octopus, pawn pasta and local fish. Food was amazing and so delicious. They gave us a little desert as a birthday surprise! Excellent food, beautiful ocean view and great customer service from Hau Tree! Recommend to everyone! It is a must try in Honolulu!

Izakaya Nonbei is our go-to Japanese restaurant in Honolulu. The large menu ensures that we create the variety of dishes that we want. We go very regularly and will do so for the foreseeable future. We ordered over a dozen dishes for our group of 7 and left very happy.
