Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Hawaii

Taormina is a great Sicilian restaurant in the middle of Waikiki. The place is clean and modern, and the service is welcoming and efficient. At lunch they provide free focaccia with olive oil/balsamic vinegar and a passion fruit sorbet after the meal. The Siciliana pasta was excellent. Great spicy flavor with a unique sweet/spicy beef ragu sauce. It's not a huge portion but it's very good. The chicken alla Griglia was excellent. It's a huge piece of chicken, perfectly roasted and seasoned. It's very tender and flavorful. Really it's better than the pasta IMO. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in Hawaii. Make a reservation because you probably won't get in without it.

This is Roy's new concept, but they still have Butterfish, and so much more. I believe a quite large menu, especially when you add to it that they can customize your dishes. The appetizers are the best in Honolulu and priced fair. Happy Hour is also very exceptional. This was my second time but I brought 8 guests and it was the first for them. They all raved about the food and drinks and will be back. Exceptional!

This place was an off street hidden gem. Not crowded and non rushed environment and our server Amber was so helpful. Food was reasonably priced but very high end quality.

This is my spouses first time to Hawaii. With it being Christmas Eve we were related to know we could still make last minute reservations for dinner after our other activity was interrupted by another guests personal emergency. Although it was “late” the staff was absolutely wonderful and service was quit and knowledgeable. I strongly recommend dining her with your family or for a special occasion. I would suggest that “on the 3rd” floor be added to the directions or information on all platforms.

This is one of our go to restaurants in HNL. We have been going here since it opened and as well to its predecessor at the Modern. While the food is exquisite (sticky ribs are the best you will ever have), we have determined that the real reason we keep coming back is the staff. This year, they confirmed that beyond our expectations. Bryan was our server and he was fantastic, enthusiastic and friendly. The manager, Vinnie, came over to our table and a good visit turned into something truly memorable! Thank you Vinnie! We look forward to continuing to come back; for the food but more importantly, the amazing/great/welcoming staff!
