Best Historic Restaurants in Waikiki

We had a wonderful dining experience at the Beachhouse. Chose the 4 course dinner menu and each course was outstanding. I was stuffed after the entree but the dessert was a true culinary art, I had to finish it all! Great wine selection for pairing. Service was impeccable -- Brandon and Ping really upgraded our experience there, thank you so much for making our night a special one! Great vibes, beautiful sunset view, live music from the bar... so nice. Highly recommend!

I enjoyed afternoon tea on the Veranda. This was a lovely experience. The tea, sandwiches, desserts and scones were delicious. Service was great and just a fantastic view. This is an experience I will never forget.

Our experience at Empire Steak House Hawaii was first class from start to finish. We were taken care of by Alfred, and he was very helpful and attentive all night. We elected to each go with the Valentines Day Special, and thoroughly enjoyed the jumbo shrimp cocktail, caesar salad, filet, new york strip , and chocolate mousse cake. Based on my wife's dietary needs, Alfred went above and beyond to come up with a desert option my wife could enjoy. At times the restaurant did get quite loud, but generally we were able to carry on a conversation. Overall I would recommend checking out the restaurant if you are looking for a good date night/special occasion location.

Excellent service and delicious food. Kitchen was running slow, but our server and the manager kept us informed on progress and insured we were happy. Definitely recommend.

Overall we had a great experience. We were seated quickly after arriving, our server greeted us, brought us water, took drink orders, went over specials, and got our order taken. The timing of everything was great. We got our drinks, our appetizer came out shortly after, and our food came out shortly after we finished the appetizer. Everything was delicious. The staff was very friendly and great throughout the whole dinner. We’d definitely come back. We would just note to be seated inside next time. The street noise was a little loud for our liking, but not enough to ruin the experience.
