Discover the vibrant flavors of Hawaii at MW Restaurant, where renowned chefs Wade Ueoka and Michelle Karr-Ueoka showcase their passion for local cuisine. Now on the 2nd floor of the Velocity Honolulu Building, our new location offers a refined yet casual dining experience that celebrates Hawaii’s rich culinary heritage.

Conveniently located across from the Blaisdell Center, use “Velocity Honolulu” or “888 Kapiolani Blvd” for accurate directions. Valet parking is available at the entrance from Kapiolani Blvd up the ramp; avoid parking in the MW Valet-only stall on the ground level as it is subject to towing.

Join us to savor exquisite regional dishes and delectable desserts that have made MW Restaurant a cornerstone of Hawaii’s culinary scene. Visit https://mwrestaurant.com/ to place your order or learn more.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Wade Ueoka & Michelle Karr-Ueoka

From the OpenTable editors: Wife-and-husband team Michelle Karr-Ueoka and Wade Ueoka trained in MICHELIN-Starred kitchens from Napa to NYC before returning home to open what Eater calls one of the most essential restaurants in Honolulu. The airy, second-floor space has a big, bustling dining room for Hawaiian comforts like the signature mochi-crusted kampachi and wagyu beef sliders on housemade mochi buns. Save room for Karr-Ueoka's award-winning desserts, such as a gussied-up mango shave ice.

    We love this restaurant: good seafoods. Even though it was Thursday, it was crowded. So the waiters were so busy to stop by our table, yet the dishes are magnificent and we enjoyed a lot.

    I invited two out-of-town visitors to dinner there. Both said that their meals were excellent — including their brulee desserts! Thank you!

    My other half and I love to eat here when we get to treat ourselves. This night we had wagyu beef sliders and ahi nachos for appetizers. Both were really good but the wagyu sliders were 10/10, we would order that again. Also the mochi crusted kona kampachi and miso honey glazed butterfish is always a must. Everybody is really nice and eating there is always an enjoyable experience.

    Food and service were fine. No complaints, but not great. Weird location above a luxury car dealership. No outside sign and really hard to find.
