    Naupaka is the informal beachside/poolside restaurant at the Westin. It is a wonderful place to watch the Hawaiian sunset. My wife and I have eaten there twice. She raves about the salad. I had a great catch of the day and a very good cheeseburger. This is a fun, convenient alternative to the fancier restaurants at Westin and Mauna Kea.

    We dined at Halani last night for Valentine’s Day and it was AMAZING. Our server was Ali(?) she’s y’all, blonde and has tattoos and she was INCREDIBLE. The bread balloon with the dip trio was out of this world, my kebabs were cooked perfectly and my husband’s flank wagyu steak was 10/10. I’ve been to this restaurant for the all you can eat breakfast brunch during the day but at night is a totally different vibe and just stunning. Everyone was kind and helpful from the valet to the servers and busters.

    This kitchen prepares amazing and unique dishes. We have been diners here since Alan Wong was the chef and the current menu meet that standard.The lobster tempura is reminiscent of Allan, prepared slightly differently, but just as delicious. The radish salad is an absolute must. We also feel that the garlic fried rice is the perfect compliment, to your protein of choice. It is definitely hard to beat the setting and the entire staff is absolutely outstanding and they work perfectly in unison to provide amazing service. He will definitely feel the Aloha Spirit at the Canoe House.

    Join an absolutely amazing location with equally amazing food, and it makes for a romantic evening celebrating our anniversary. The $110/pp prix fixe Pacific Rim menu alternative offered an amazing bread basket, a garden salad and mango ceviche for appetizers, and a kampachi/Kona shrimp duo and a wonderful Ono fresh catch for our main courses. Finally a lillikoi parfait and chocolate decadence dessert completed the evening. Elizer provided wonderful service with friendly conversation about his family. Thanks again to KCP for a wonderful anniversary experience.

    We ending up coming back to this restaurant during our day! It was fabulous. The crispy rice with Aji tuna, the shrimp with macadamia nuts, the pork belly fried rice were all spectacular. The service was excellent and the view sitting out on the back deck was nothing short of as spectacular.
