Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Honolulu

Was pleasantry surprised at the overall experience being that it is a clothing store first! Food and the wine list were really good! After hearing about the coconut shrimp app, we had to have it, and enjoyed it! I was so happy to see blue crab/ avocado salad as a main entree and loved it. Don’t see it around much at all. We also had the Chilean sea bass and the ribs and they were excellent too. Service was outstanding and the drinks were innovative and delicious.

Merriman's Ward is definitely our first preferred spot for wino wine share get togethers. Food's fantastic and approachable and the corkage is still wino friendly compared with other places that have corkage charges set to discourage bringing special bottles to share with friends. We enjoyed a 3 hour commiseration over a bottle of Radio Silence! Servers were attentive but not intrusive--they let us do our wine share thing; very nice and appropriate wine glasses. All in all a place not to be missed. Thanks and mahalo again Merriman's Ward!!

Great food, service and a lovely experience, highly recommend.

In Hawaii, I think it's not just the scenery, such as being near the ocean or being able to watch the sunset, but also the atmosphere and delicious food.

La Mer is such a special restaurant—Chef Trancher and his team provide the best blend of French and Hawaiian cuisine with excellent wines and exceptional service. We were there last year and it was the first restaurant we booked once we made our plans to return to Honolulu this December. La Mer would have Michelin stars if Hawaii restaurants were rated by Michelin. It is a perfect spot for a special occasion or to just enjoy amazing food prepared with great attention to detail. It is worth every penny for this unforgettable dining experience!
