Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Honolulu

By far the best dinner of our trip! We dined out every night for five nights, and this experience was unmatched. The staff and our waiter went above and beyond with thoughtful recommendations and small surprises that made us feel truly appreciated. The atmosphere was just as remarkable—we booked our reservation to catch the sunset, and it was timed perfectly, adding to the experience. From the exceptional food to the outstanding service and even our stay at the SurfRider, every detail was simply perfect. I highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone.

Restaurant Suntory is always a wonderful place to have an excellent Japanese meal. We have never been disappointed by the food or service. The restaurant itself is well designed with a modern Japanese and open feel. It’s our go to Japanese restaurant. We will return.

My wife and I are locals and have eaten at pretty much every notable restaurant on Oahu as well as the other islands. We have been meaning to try Aloha Steak House as it looked to have an awesome vibe. We are so glad we did. The food is on point with any high end steak house. In fact, it’s better. It’s not a pretentious place, the service is amazing. Loreal took great care of us with recommendations and made our night memorable. My filet was medium rare plus with a char and was perfect. My wife’s twin lobster tails were scrumptious. You have to order the arugula burrata salad, the Brussels and bacon and French fries. Top it off with Watermelon ice cream. Incredible! Did I mention the drinks? The Mai Tai should be on the list of Honolulu’s Best. This is our new date night spot for sure.

A beautiful Christmas Day lunch - this was a truly special experience. Dining on the water front of Waikīkī, while enjoying an amazing assortment of food is a memory that will live on forever in my mind. I will be back as soon as I can and hope to bring even more friends and family next time.

Fantastic! and they were open and wonderful on Christmas Eve too!
