Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Kaka'ako

Had lunch here with the ladies today. It was our first time and we all enjoyed it. We ordered the Biscuits in a bag with jam and the truffle fries for appetizer. Couple ladies tried and loved their cocktail “A Honu World”. For lunch we had the Smashed Burger, prime Rib Moco, Chicken Pot Pie, Fresh Fish Sandwich and their version of the Saimin. Then for dessert we had the bread pudding, coconut lime sorbet, coffee and vanilla ice cream. The sorbet was delicious and refreshing and my fish sandwich was moist and oh so yummy! Our server Dylan ( I’m sorry, I hope I got that right) was helpful and attentive. Service and food are 5 stars!

We had to make reservation changes multiple times an hour prior to our reservation time. The hostess was extremely accommodating and so helpful and polite during all interactions. They were able to meet our party of 8 requests even though it was a Saturday night and holiday weekend. Waitress was very friendly and attentive and food was great as usual. Love coming here, will continue coming here and will always recommend others to as well.

My husband and I went to Ruscello for Valentine's Day and were running late because of heavy traffic. I called the restaurant to let them know we were running late. They were very understanding. I ordered the filet mignon and asked that it be cooked medium. It was cooked perfectly and was tender and delicious.

This is not our first visit to the Hula Grill and will not be the last. This visit was for my husbands 60th birthday. I wish we were seated at the rail but table was just fine. The service and food were both perfect. The new bartender had trouble making a bay breeze, kept forgetting the pineapple, but they corrected it fast and without attitudes :-) grateful. I appreciated that the music playing was Hawaiian. We come to Hawaii almost yearly and Hawaiian music is what we want to hear when having a meal. So thank you Hula Grill for a great meal and great atmosphere. Was wonderful. Oh FISH “ALL” was cooked to perfection!

Excellent food, ambience and service!! ❤️ I haven’t been there for awhile. Popovers were delicious as usual. The food was superb. I had the salmon ochazuke. I love risotto and I love chase and I love salmon so it was a perfect dish to try. It was delicious!!! My girlfriend had the shrimp crab Louis salad. That looked delicious too!! There were so many I love. So I will surely b back!
