Restaurants near Kalakaua Golf Course

Second time here for Thanksgiving and because we were there for lunch instead of dinner, it was truly a winner experience. We arrived a little early and checked in. We were seated just a couple of minutes after other reservation time. Slightly slower than dinner last year because we were on the bar side versus the main area. So it was a little quieter and leisurely. Server Cody was awesome. He was quick and efficient and friendly. Checked back on us at all the appropriate times. Three of us had the turkey dinner plate. Two of them hadn’t had it before and were impressed with how juicy the turkey was, the quantity of turkey, and the taste. We asked for and were brought extra cranberry relish. Two had the 12 oz prime rib and were very pleased with it. Prepared as ordered, medium rare for both. They ate it all so it must have been good. May not be expensive restaurant cuts, but for the price it’s always good, tender, tasty outer layer, juicy middle. Two minor things - cranberry relish was pretty tart. Would recommend a change in recipe for next year. Not enough gravy, but if course they bring more on request. I plan on returning next year - Black Angus is an excellent option that’s right in between getting a catered turkey package and dining in at really upscale restaurants, where turkey isn’t something I would order.

Our party of seven dined at Monkeypod and it was absolutely fabulous. The place itself is beautiful and the service was outstanding. Our server was truly fantastic. We are locals and we will definitely be returning again and again. Also worth noting that they have an excellent Happy Hour.

Last minute birthday dinner. They sat us in prime position looking over the cove. Black cod and the Salmon were amazing. Had the ice cold crab to start as well. Topped off with the baked Hawaiian dessert. Service was exceptional throughout. Will definitely be a common stop when we come over.

Always a good place to celebrate special occasions! Menu varied and food delicious 💕

Great tasting food, great selection during expanded breakfast hours on the weekend and service was top notch!
