Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Waimānalo

Everything was wonderful as usual.  The waiter serving our table was especially entertaining and knowledgeable about the dishes that were being served.

The restaurant was able to accommodate our last-minute reservation change on the day, which we really appreciated. All the staff were friendly, and we received excellent service. Every dish we tried was delicious. The Tomahawk steak was tender, perfectly cooked, and at 1,600g, it was more than enough for the four of us to share. The bone marrow ($20) was also tasty, but the portion was surprisingly small, as it came with only half a bone, leaving us with just about a teaspoon of marrow. Considering the price, it felt a bit underwhelming—we would have expected at least a full bone. I’ll be back next time we are here.

Being a solo traveler, one usually gets stuck in a corner somewhere, but, I requested the lounge seating (lanai was completely booked) asking if possible could I get a view of the ocean. They sat me at a perfect little table directly in front of the setting sun! I couldn’t have been happier!! Service was impeccable, the food fantastic and the Guava Daiquiri a MUST!!!

The pork wasn't as good as it may have appeared, the lobster, prime rib, and snow crab exceeded my expectations. The bread pudding with it's sauce wasn't overly sweet which without loosing it's wonderful flavor. The genuine Kona coffee was a rare gratifying experience with it's rich, robust, taste and morning appealing aroma.

Excellent food, excellent service, fantastic view. Orchids is a must next time you are visiting Oahu. Several in our party have dubbed it the “best meal of their lives”.
