    Can’t go wrong a meal here. We are regulars for breakfast and lunch. Service is always excellent and the food and portion size is great. We no longer go to Orchids at the Halekulani because they sadly have raised prices and reduced their portion sizes! Ask to sit in Wendy’s section….you will love her! Happy holidays!

    The pork wasn't as good as it may have appeared, the lobster, prime rib, and snow crab exceeded my expectations. The bread pudding with it's sauce wasn't overly sweet which without loosing it's wonderful flavor. The genuine Kona coffee was a rare gratifying experience with it's rich, robust, taste and morning appealing aroma.

    Awesome experience and Ken was amazing. Walked through the whole menu with us and gave out customers favorites along with his personal recommendations. They were able to make modifications to our dishes since one friend doesn't do truffle oil and another friend wanted to add a side of mushrooms to his dish. We order a bit too much and was extremely full by the end of our meal. They packed everything for us and all boxes were nicely labeled. Will definitely be back since food and service are great.

    Original Roy’s at Hawaii Kai delivers an unforgettable dining experience that perfectly blends culinary excellence with a great sunset view. The food is nothing short of outstanding, showcasing bold flavors and impeccable presentation that highlight the restaurant’s Hawaiian fusion roots. The service was superb—attentive, friendly, and seamless from start to finish, making us feel truly valued. To top it all off, we were treated to a stunning sunset view from the second-floor dining room, which added an extra layer of magic to our evening. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a perfect meal in a beautiful setting. Oh, and by the way, don’t forget to save room for one of the soufflés. We had both the chocolate and the seasonal pumpkin. Both were delicious!
