You absolutely have to go to the Beachhouse at Moana Surfrider while in Waikiki. Perfect spot for date night. The food was delicious, the views + vibe incredible and the service was outstanding. Can't recommend this spot enough, go go go!
Our server, Matt, was wonderful and helped make a great dining experience. He was knowledgeable about each dish and patiently explained the individual flavor profiles. This helped us make some great choices. The old fashioned cocktail to start was perfectly crafted. The wine pairings were spot on. The lobster gratin on buttered toast points was delicious. The lobster chowder was also quite good. The reason I only give four stars for food is that the lobster in the soup was not fresh. It was very fishy. The chowder base was awesome so it was a shame. The filet mignon was delicious and the desserts were well crafted and light.
The dinner my wife and I had this evening was second to none. We decided to have the five course dinner. Every course from start to finish did not disappoint. My personal favorite was the short rib entree which was soft enough you could cut it with a fork. My wife's favorite dish was the fruit de mar. As good as the food and wine were the part of the dinner that truly made our night was our waiter Brendan. He went above and beyond to make our night one to remember. I hope for our next visit we can have him as a waiter again. MAHALO Brendan ??
Amazing food, service and view at the restaurant, the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because they had the shades down blocking the entire view of the ocean and the beautiful sun set because one person sitting at the end of veranda asked for it, said it was too bright. the We asked if they the put them up so we can enjoy the view and at first they refused so we asked for the manager, who never came so were going to get up and leave and only then they opened up the shades. The view is beautiful and amazing colors of the sunset. Very high end food and prices but totally worth it!

We had a table on a veranda which was beautiful. The ocean was beautiful and the server said that we could leave our table to see the sunset. After dark the giant tree at the restaurant center lights up and the restaurant is aglow. We had the 4 course tasting menu. There were choices for each course of the tasting menu. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, a respite trip, and since my husband's cancer return, the trip was maybe our last trip together. The server made our evening so incredibly special. What we ate: charred octopus, roasted beets and goat cheese, kampachi (fish) and short ribs, salad and lobster chowder and for dessert chocolate banana crunch mousse.

Bad experience with Host, you should hand select the employee that has the first interaction with a customer, it would determine the attitude of the customer for the rest of the experience.

We splurged and had a four-course chef's tasting menu dinner at the Beachhouse at Moana Surfrider. There were good selections of appetizers & entree choices. We selected lobster bisque soup, salad, lobster au gratin, shrimp cocktail, filet mignon and blueberry cheese cake. The steak was a bit overcooked for medium but still very tender. One of the steak was tiny, almost half the normal size, which seemed unreasonable for $105 per person price. We found the lobster au gratin to be very salty. The service was excellent and prompt and timely brought the glass of Daou cabernet with the steak. We requested a table closer to the ocean when we made the reservation but unfortunately our table was the farthest away from the ocean.... Overall, it was a nice experience to start our vacation but our favorite steakhouse will remain a different restaurant...
The location was indeed up to par, however the quality of the food we felt did not live up to the same standards. For example, the filet was “chewy” and the lamb chops fatty given the price tag of a prefix menu.
Closed out our vacation with a great chef's menu dinner at The Beach house. We arrived a few minutes early from our reservation and they sat us right away in the best table on the patio. Our wait staff was great, and the views were spectacular. Food was even better than expected and bigger portions than most Chef's Menus I've had in the past.

Beautiful setting for an amazing birthday dinner. If you are looking for a food experience and not worried about cost, this is a great place to eat. My wife had the fish and I had the filet mignon. The filet was cooked to perfection. The fish was moist and tender and had an Asian inspired taste to it. It was an amazing dinner.

From the moment we arrived at the Sheraton Moana... our experience that night was unforgettable. We were there to celebrate a birthday, dinner for 2. The valet guys were welcoming and courteous. Our host was also welcoming and gracious. The ambiance was relaxing, casual, and yet romantic. The views of the beach and sunset were amazing. Our table was neatly prepared. The restaurant was clean, and you could tell that it was more of an upscale place to dine at. The food was amazing. We both had the chef's tasting 4 course menu with the wine pairing. Our signature drinks that we had first were tasty and delicious. The wine pairing complimented each dish and would highly recommend it. And our waiter, Matt, is what made the dining experience exceptional. He gave us a 5 star service and made our dining experience enjoyable. This was our first time dining here, and certainly, it won't be our last. Thank you, Sheraton Moana, Beach House, and Matt, for a memorable birthday dinner.

The prices are exorbitant to a degree that the beautiful view could get you to overlook except then you see that this business discriminates against Americans and will not accept money (cash)! The only businesses that do this are creepy bank-owned operations that insist you make data to buy food and don't trust their workers to handle money. It just felt like buying a $40 (not an exaggeration) omelet for breakfast was too disrespectful to oneself and the folks working for service wages.

テラスの雰囲気はとても良い！ スタッフも丁寧でとても親切です。 4品のコース料理を選びましたがどれもあまり好みではなかった。アラカルトにすれば良かったかも...
