Michel's at the Colony Surf offers an unforgettable dining experience with "outstanding service," "exquisite food," and "breathtaking views." Guests rave about the tableside preparations, especially the Caesar salad and lobster bisque. The ambiance is elegant, perfect for special occasions, and the oceanfront location adds to its charm. Highly recommended for gourmet dining in Honolulu.

    This restaurant is spot on with their food. Unbelievable table side prep for some of our dishes. The only problem with this restaurant is people not adhering to their dress code. I saw a woman in slides take her feet out of her shoes and sit there with no shoes on. And too many little kids. This is supposed to be a high end French restaurant. Too many squealing little kids. Not the place for kids. Otherwise, delightful food and service.

    Havinge dined at Michel’s for over 25 years, last night was a real disappointment. We requested a table with a nice view to watch the sunset. I was taking pictures while seated at out table and just as the sun was about to set a busboy reached directly infront of me to get something and blocked the exact moment of the green flash. This is inexcusable. There was no urgency for him to block my photo 12 inches from me. The food was disappointing and the evening was not enjoyable.

    We were able to get a Sunset (5:45-6:30) time slot. Simply beautiful. But anytime is a great water view location. The table-side preparations (& presentation) are lovely and fun! EVERY TABLE had the fresh Lobster bisque by flame, and the complete Caesar salad build. Impeccable service. A must do.

    We went to Michel’s for our 10th anniversary. It was our first time there, and we were impressed by the quality and service. After 3 years of living in Oahu, we finally found a top-notch restaurant!

    Mechel is now owned by the Japanese as a wedding venue. USA citizens are given poor treatment and poor seating. No longer open air, it is sealed shut with air conditioning and windows that don’t open. Food is mediocre and tasteless. I had charges on my bill removed for things I didn’t order. $300 without alcohol for two was exorbitant. The new owners have no taste.

    We used the restaurant with a small child, so we were worried that we might cause inconvenience to the restaurant. As a result, we were warmly welcomed by very helpful and friendly waitstaff and had the best travel memories. If I ever come to Hawaii again, I will definitely use this restaurant. Thank you very much.

    Our first time at Michel’s for a staycation birthday dinner. We stayed next door at the Kaimana so it was very convenient just to walk over. The service is excellent and the food is also very good. I would suggest reserving around 530 to not miss the sunset but also not get “cooked” at your table, as the sun streams through directly on you no matter where you sit regardless of the awning. Best table to choose would be front Diamond head corner under the hau tree shade.
