Best Fun Restaurants in Waimānalo

The service is outstanding! We shared a pork, pineapple and jalapeño pizza and ahi tacos. The pizza was delicious and perfect for one person. They are wood fired pizzas and thin crust. We loved it! The ahi tacos were fantastic too. There were three of them and on the small side but delicious. We ended with the coconut cream pie and it was mouth watering. The atmosphere is wonderful; right on the water and you feel like you’re floating on it. There was live music playing and she was fantastic. A relaxing and peaceful lunch, at a beautiful spot.

As residents from the island's west side, we were glad we did not cancel our reservation. We were glad OpenTable checked because we were so busy that we forgot about it. It was a beautiful Hawaii day to drive and be at PBH. When asked if we wanted the brunch buffet, we went for it instead of our original plan to do ala carte. The place was not packed, so it was a relaxing time to try the buffet, and we enjoyed everything we picked. The servers were attentive and cheerful, not stressed by the holiday bustle. At the same time, we are an "easy to please" party. We did not fret when we could not be moved to a table with lesser foot traffic. Other notes - The buffet price was right, and parking was validated. The resort hotel had a festive holiday ambiance. The restaurant had a Japan-style restroom, which was to our liking as well.

The entire experience was perfect. As it should be. Our dinner, by comparison, far exceeded our experience at a local 5 star resort. This restaurant is a hidden gem and a true delight.

Being a Lone Ranger here on island at Christmas, I decided to take myself out to dinner. I sat at the bar with my reservation and ordered a real nice Cabernet to go with my absolutely delicious chicken Parmesan and spaghetti. The service itself was great. 3 different servers consistently attended to me which was very pleasing. The dessert finished off very well with my wine as well. The ambiance was very holiday visitor vibe but the staff was hosting at a great level. Thank you for a great ending to my solo Christmas Formaggio’s!

Such a gem. Have come here often over the years. The brunch service on the beach is among the top 3 on the island. Fabulous setting and our waiter Rajah could not have been better. From the time we arrived and were so well taken care of by the valet and host till we left with good bye’s from our waiter and the smiles and thoughtful parking of the valet attendant, it could not have been a better experience. Without requesting we had the best table on the lanai, a cozy spot right on the beach front in the shade of a beautiful tree. The food we ordered was delicious, including the just-out—of-the -oven-baked perfectly right sized three pastry dish with great toppings. The pineapple guava one was unusual and divine with the banana bread, though I enjoyed it on others too. The coconut based sauce on the ahi with lettuce and taro chips was also amazing. Definitely highly recommend!!
