Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Hawaii

I will 100% return to Morimoto. The roast duck and tuna pizza are amazing. The service was excellent.

Food was very good and it’s lovely sitting around the huge banyan tree. Our service was excellent! The 4 course menu was perfect!!

For the second week in a row, my wife and I were able to join the Hy's team for dinner. This time we were celebrating a birthday while vacationing in Waikiki. The request made for a specific table during the reservation, was kept, and I would like to extend a deep thank you for this! Atmosphere is of a dark mahogany steakhouse from back east. Wood fired cooking improves flavor of the high quality meats. Unlike other high end restaurants, Hys offers a starch and mixed veg option sides, included with meals. Requested a split wedge salad, which was fantastic and a perfect size. Table side prep, bananas foster always an excellent choice. Service was maybe 1 tick, less that what is typical at Hy's, felt like we/they missed keeping up with drink orders and water refill.

WOW! 5 STARS all the way around!! From the moment we sat down and took in the amazing view to then meeting our server Sarah we knew we were in for an amazing dining experience. Everything Sarah recommended to us was delicious!! The cocktails so refreshing! The entrees mouth watering. I had the flat iron steak special and my husband had the ginger pesto catch of the day. Both entrees were cooked to perfection with the best flavors! They were DELICIOUS! Sarah was an absolute delight!! Her smile lit up the room every time she interacted with us. She provided 10 star customer service! We can’t wait to return in late February to enjoy another amazing dining experience and you bet we will be asking for Sarah!!

I used it on the birthday of the wife. All the dishes and the services, the atmosphere were the best, too. In addition, I hope to use it by all means.
