    The food, service, and ambience at Arden are very good but the prices (like most upscale restaurants in Waikiki) are opportunistically high.

    Our dining experience would have been more enjoyable if it wasn't so noisy. There was a large group in area near bar that got louder and louder as the night went on. I couldn't hear most of what my guest said. But the butterfish, butternut squash soup and tiramisu dessert were good.

    The food and service were excellent! Sheri greeted us warmly and had a great way about her! There was a live musician playing which was a nice surprise. This is a place for foodies! Each menu selection which arrived was off the charts delicious! This restaurant deserves 5 stars but the only thing holding it back to be one of the best in Waikiki is the ambience. If they only changed the carpet, it would make a huge difference. Cozy it up a bit. A restaurant designer could probably make a couple of inexpensive changes and make a huge difference. Would highly recommend Arden Waikiki for its food and service.
