Best Date Night Restaurants in Kailua

It’s always a pleasure to dine at Kalapawai. The food is excellent and the menu is always refreshingly different every time we go.

The place is simply amazing… decoration was on point, low lighting, rose petals over the seats and tables, jazz player on balcony and even a fire dancer. The drinks were delicious with a fancy presentation. We order the truffle risotto with shaved truffle (table side) on top… fully recommend it. We also ordered the veal chop with potato gratin… out of this world, tender, juicy and very flavorful. Overall this was a 10/10 experience, the staff was very friendly and the way they pull off the experience is very unique. Clark (owner) was very attentive and made us feel like family. Will be going back, they set the bar for a special occasion extremely high! Bravo Gaslamp! You got something amazing going on!!!

I spent a very unforgettable night in my life, because I proposed to my boyfriend in the restaurant. Because it was a surprise for my boyfriend, every employee in the restaurant was secretly preparing for me. Save the flowers for me, play the prepared music for me, and give us cocktails. All this is so beautiful. My English is very poor, but the staff in the restaurant actively communicated with me. Everyone was very friendly to us. We got a lot of blessings, which made the night more meaningful. I love all of you. I will definitely visit you again next time I come to Hawaii.

Noise level higher due to fabulous live music so not noise at all.

Lovely experience. Superb cocktail and personal attention from the wait staff and the chef. Food and cocktails are top notch and the outdoor dining area is quaint and cozy. Overall a great experience.
