Loved the view on the beach . Late afternoon lunches make seating a breeze. Loved the Kalua Pork Nachos from the apps section of the menu and a perfectly blended Pina Colada made a terrific dinner !

Deb

The Kalua Pork Nachos was the BEST DISH I ate in Hawaii. Seriously. And you can't beat the view

Kejone Henderson

Oceanfront seating . Great ambiance and reasonably priced compared to all of the other restaurants here at the hotel . Try the Hawaii 5-0 it's awesome. Live band on Friday night.

Pooja

Extensive selection of cocktails . Blue Hawaii and Mango-Ginger Mohito are refreshing and light-can be had with lunch or dinner . Drinks come nicely decorated with edible pineapple slices and flowers.

Went here for drinks & apps but definitely loved the breakfast more. The pancakes were to DIE for & the view can't be beat! Definitely perfect if you're staying at the Hilton.

Scott Hegyes

At first glance, the prices look somewhat steep, but once ordered, the food and drinks were quality and substantial. The best craft cocktails we found in Waikiki.

The Mauka Makai toast at breakfast was delicious! So is there BLT and poke for lunch . Love sitting on the patio and looking at the beach while we eat

Erin Sanford

This is a Hunger Games themed restaurant where only the strongest survive and get to eat. Your foe is a club-footed pigeon named Jean-Claude that will pounce your meal every time you avert your eyes.

Angela Wandahsega

Surprised that the restaurant didn't open until 7:00 am for breakfast . Quite a line of people waiting, food was pretty good, bill came to more than $60 for 2 Omelettes juice and coffee ! Ouch!!

Jamie Nickle

The Kalua Pork Nachos and the Island ceviche are to die for. I'm never going home.

Ashley Rose

The coconut shrimp were delicious; but the vegetable stir fry was more noodle than veggie so I'd skip it. Cocktails are sweet and seemingly lacking alcohol so for $11 stick to the 22oz pour of beer .

Troy Nelson

Order "The Itch" -- two rums and bourbon in coke . Comes with a free wooden back scratcher! $12.00 but its in a BIG glass. Guaranteed to give you a buzz.

Julia Porter

We loved it here for the ambiance and easy transition from beach or pool to meal. It is reasonably priced compared to other Hawaiian Village eateries .

Michela

Grab a table closest to the water! Then also have an excellent drinks list! Ocean Breeze is great!

Lee Ann Ackerman

The food is great and so is the service. It’s an awesome view of the beach !

ML

Very nice beach restaurant with decent food. A bit pricey but can put up with it!

Rozanne Michaels

Keith makes amazing Mai Tai plus gives excellent advice on restaurants and sites to see!!!

Anthony Sullivan

The poke is giant chuncks so you better really love raw tuna if you order it. The crab & corn tots are actually like hush puppies . The first order was raw & the replacement order wasn't any better.

Paddy

Nice casual beachside bar and grill. Fresh seafood and cocktails while looking out at the ocean.

Kelen Evans

Last night waiter debated with me about cola in Mai tai when there was clearly cola in it. Beer is good. Coconut shrimp is good. Salad was drowning in dressing . But service was good today

Heather Garrett

For breakfast order the Hawaiian french toast...its dessert for breakfast ! So good

Paula Helgerson

All the drinks come with an orchid- welcome to paradise. Lovely touch.

Mai Oseto

Try the Vegan Works Bagel - Whole wheat bagel with sundried tomato spread, toped with capers , sprouts and fresh tomatoes ! It's a vegan party, in my mouth and my belly.

Nickie Tee

Ask them to wipe down the table before you sit because the birds rule this joint!

Crazycol

Get a big kahuna burger and some tower onion rings .Dont forget the hawaii 5 o cocktail !

Kenyc Labarca

15-20 minutes waiting and when you get inside around 10 tables empty! ????

D MC

Coconut shrimp was excellent

Tammy Rummy

Great place to listen to live music & watch the sunset

Julian Knaesel

Best Poke and Coconut Shrimp in Waikiki

Jacki Kruse

Service the first night there was horrific! Took us leaving our table to actually get drinks at the bar and then another 45 min+ before anyone took our food order. But the food/drinks were good!

Varun

A varied selection of tropical cocktails . Tasty and refreshing!

Katie Sliter

Nice location and pretty good food, but overpriced (like everything in the resort ). A side of fries will cost you $6 and a soda is $5!

Janelle A

Fish tacos and big kahuna burger are winners

Ed Griffin

Try the Grilled Bratwurst And Eggs - The bartender said the brats were good, and he was right!

Samantha Hemingway

The fish and chips don't have much flavor. Cool atmosphere though. The Mac and cheese looks awesome.

Shari Kvistad

Great hamburgers and fish tacos --nice views of the ocean!

Wendy Bauman

Love this place! Oceanfront seating . Ask for RAMFIS if you get a choice in a server....Friendly staff and great drinks! :^)

Gina Nupp

Good food and the live entertainment is awesome - I didn't catch the name of the singer but she is amazing!

Susie C.

Mai tais are a little sweet here and have too much lime juice . Get the ahi poke at happy hour for $5 instead of usual $14.

Mucho Comida™

Bartenders are super friendly (most of them) and HH deals are pretty good for a hotel bar . Enjoy...

Doug W

Mistakes happen, and they did to our drinks. They comp the bill and as I'm pulling out my wallet to leave a nice tip the waiter tells us not to come back. Bye bye tip and trust me we won't.

Janet S

Food was delicious

Jeremy Carter

If you like Mai Tai 's get the 151 Mai Tai - its worth it. Like mom used to make :-)

John S.

The Ali'i Mai Tais are excellent!

Derek Newman

Food could have been a little better for the price. $5 for a Sprite and the server never came by to refill (not even the water). The fireworks show was the best. I guess we had to pay for them somehow

Michelle Palmer

Order the pulled pork BBQ sandwich . It is really tasty!!!!

Michael Parish

No more issues with Birds . They enclosed the outdoor seating with a net.

Jon Stave

I've cold Bud Light , speedy service at the bar . All good here!

James Galvin

Love the view and the Village Mai Tai .

Kwesi Soti Mtundu

Don't try to find this on map. East end inside Hilton resort facing beach .
