“I don’t care for the regular cookies, but I like their thin cookies. I also really like their cakes, pies, dessert cups, and brownies. The only thing that I really dislike is that when you pre-order it’s not always available. What is the point of pre-ordering if your items are not available when you pick it up?! They should hold your order on the side to make sure you get what you paid for. This happened to me three times already.”
“Our family of 7 had an absolutely amazing experience at Noe! The food was fabulous—we were practically scraping our plates clean! Our server, Kyle, was energetic, passionate, and truly went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. We also loved that Noe was so welcoming and kid-friendly for our sweet girls, ages 3 and 5. We had such a wonderful time, and this was by far the best meal we've had during our stay in Ko Olina. We highly recommend Noe!”

“This is a good restaurant. The staff was very accommodating for a large group with multiple kids. They have a robot that will drive around with appetizers on it if you order them. Food was relatively well priced and ultimately if you want to I think this is a pretty good spot.”
“By far one of the best meals my family and I ever had. The canoe appetizer was off the charts and the meals were even better. The ahi tuna and both the 16 is cab steak and the wagyu A-5 6oz was incredible and the desserts were even better. Highly recommend”

“We highly recommend Moani island Bistro.The owners have created a wonderful choice of food and all of the staff are awesome! Their food was delicious and the wait staff especially Raina and the two brothers that work the bar were so much fun. The owner came out and introduced herself. We loved it so much we went three times on our stay! 10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“If you do any luau here… do this one at Aulani. When aulani first opened they had a luau of sorts on the lawn on some nights with music and hula and it was great. They then started the Ka Wa’a a luau and really made it better. The first time on Oahu in 2011 we did the Paradise Cove luau which was very touristy to say the meat and the food was alright. The Aulani luau feels more authentic and the food is hands down better quality- think 4 star restaurant Hawaiian food! The show can’t be beat and the pre show activities are perfect. Spring for the premium tickets for better seating, earlier access and the free foto.
This is always our must do the last 3x we have visited Aulani now.
There is a Disney twist to this luau but they story telling is beautiful and makes you feel like a part of the Hawaiian culture!
Update 5/24/26: still a great luau on this trip! Bonus if you get a room overlooking that area of Aulani you can watch from your balcony. Shout out to Rod- the best bartender!”
“Beachfront dining with excellent service, unbeatable lagoon views, and decent food. Overall, the food was very nice plated and great flavors, but in my opinion every dish was slightly salty, not a deal breaker but certainly could be a little less heavy handed. I would definitely come back again but hope everything would be a little bit more dialed in to make it 5/5 stars.
Kambucha squash with miso caramel: great flavor and great texture but sauce was again very seasoned. 8/10
NY strip steak: perfectly cooked medium rare with nice crunchy bits on top and very tender. It was served with a few sauces that while indeed salty again, in this case it worked and the salt let the beef flavor shine. 9/10 would definitely come back again for this.
KFC cauliflower: korean fried iteration of cauliflower it was spicy, sticky, crunchy, sweet and definitely was one of the table favorites. 9/10
Sunset roll: standard sushi roll with crab and fish on top. It was good and fresh. 8.5/10
Beef, pork, mushroom skewers: the pork belly was great and the sauce was tasty and not overly salty, my favorite of the three. The beef was decent but did not really compare to the steak we had so having them side by side made it kind of underwhelming. The mushrooms were good but kind of small for the price compared to the others. 7.5/10
Shoyu eggplant: eggplant was plump and tasty with a definite soy sauce taste. Kind of verged on the salty side but considering shoyu was in the name it definitely delivered on that front. 8/10
Shrimp toast: fried Japanese milk bread with shrimp and a tangy sauce and salad on top. Great crunch and flavorful shrimp but again the sauce was verging on overly salty. That said, we all did enjoy this dish and would order it again. 8.5/10
Fresh caught fish with crispy skin over rice with consumme: this dish was the only dish that was not overly salty and I thought was delicious, well balanced and had nice delicate flavors. My one nitpick was the skin did not come out crispy as advertised. 8/10
Scallops: Three scallops served over a cream sauce with rice cakes and salmon eggs. The scallops and sauce were the star and very tasty on its own, however, when eaten with the ikura, again it followed the trend of overly salty so I kind of avoided it. The rice cakes were kind of just there and was surprisingly bland considering the aforementioned saltiness. Overall, while the scallops and sauce were nice, the dish was a little underwhelming for the high price and small amounts of scallops ($16 per scallop). 7/10
In summary, most dishes had high and lows, but with the great service and views this place still offers a lot of value, I just think it has some kinks to work out.”
“Affordable price for buffet lovers. Valet parking is reasonable... Lots of choices to choose from... all you can eat for a price you will never regret...”
“I love this place! The negri & roll options are pretty straightforward. The beauty is the price!! Their kitchen is quality and the price is as much a value as the kitchen. Dine in or out; you'll get quality fish. I'm proud to suggest this dining establishment”

“Amazing burgers! It’s also nice to have a beach view and friendly service. A bit pricey but that’s Disney.”
“Great Kahlua Pig and Huli Huli Chicken. Great Show. Big Kahuna Approved!🤙🏻”

“Tiny but mighty for sure!! You know it's amazing when the menu covers the wall!! Local specialties like the Loco Moco and Mac nut waffle are a must try!! The portions are huge! Definitely shareable. Upgrade your dish with their fried rice!! The malasada pancakes were quite popular, but i chose the waffle instead. There is a line and place is a hole in the wall type of restaurant, but it does go fast. The girls are excellent waitresses and they are constantly keeping the place clean which is a huge plus for me! They have nice music too. Parking is a bit hit and miss since there are other businesses in the same center, but you'll find something. They do not have a restroom. There is a shared one in the building though.”
“First time coming here since we got back on islands after being gone for a few years and we were so pleasantly surprised at the value and quality of this sushi here! We’ve always had a hard time finding sushi that we like on the west side of the island and this is definitely gonna be a new goat to spot. The Hamachi Sakura was absolutely amazing!”

“We loved this place. The view was amazing, the food was great and everyone was super friendly. Probably the best Fish and Chips I’ve ever had. My husband got the kalua pork nachos and apparently they were so good that he would barely share them, ha. Can’t wait to visit again. ☺”
“I try to eat a bowl of ramen in every city I travel to and there is absolutely nothing I have tried in my American ramen journey that compares to the absolutely insane flavors Tanaka delivers. The most rich, full bodied and flavorful broth. Perfect texture of noods. The black garlic addition is just… ridiculously perfect. One of my favorite parts about coming back to Ko’Olina is literally Tanaka Ramen. I would face plant into a bowl of this every.day.of.my.life if I could.
Dear Tanaka, you are the ramen of my dreams.”
“Rather you're visiting from a neighboring hotel, local or staying at the Four Seasons like myself, this is a great place to hang. You get poolside vibes with a view of the beach. Over the course of 5 days, the staff was fun and competitive. Shout out to Brandy, Daniel, Trent, Heidi, Ryan, Chad, Christian in particular for their deliciously tasting drinks. Shout out to Corina for excellent service at the cabana one of those days! The food is also good. I've had the Fish & Chips, Kalua nachos (nachos w/Kalua pork on the side), double burger to name a few. Fish & Chips are the go-to.”
“GREAT food, service & atmosphere. Would be 5 ⭐️ BUT. I can’t get behind business practices that charge $5 for a topping. We ordered a large pie for $30 with 3 additional toppings. Pepperoni, Jalapeños & black olives & it came out to $50 after taxes lol give me a break. I know the costs of business & sustainability. This was outright price gouging.”
“We went here twice for breakfast while staying at Aulani. It was a cheaper option, and the food was wonderful. The bacon jalapeno fried rice hit the spot without breaking the bank. We shared the fruit pancakes with that and were very satisfied. We walked, but there were a few parking spots.”
“My big bowl ramin was big, lots of vegets, a couple slices of pork a little overcooked almost tasteless at this point. My server was a girl she was fast, but could use some social skills to improve her tip. Water refill was on point the place was clean. The worker was fast.”
“Great food and service! I got the filet and shrimp meal, and the chicken marsala for my wife, and both were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The portions were very generous, and the small loaf of fresh warm bread was amazing. I forgot to take photos before digging in, but it was a to-go order anyway.”

“This was a recommendation from our hotel and we came back two more times. It is a pleasant quiet neighborhood. We ate inside twice and outside once which I we preferred. My wife enjoyed the “Westside Burger” which she enjoyed. On other nights she had the excellent fish and chips and a very good pasta dish. I had some rather disappointing fish tacos but the next two nights I really enjoyed the “Bouillabaisse “! Our servers were excellent. The only disappointment was our passing up the great Bakery items on display.”
“First time here for this local resident! I've driven past this intersection for decades and have no idea when this business popped up. Great location, parking, outdoor seating (kid and dog friendly), and a solid, healthy menu. I had the vegetarian burrito with tofu, and scarfed it down before remembering to take a picture. That's how good it was. A trickier proposition when it's raining, but that's also when the flies leave the area.”
“Found this place just driving through the mall the other week. You can take out bento plates or sit on their 3 tables that they have. You just choose your plate and go so really fast. What's great is that if you get their large bento plate you get a free water! Whenever we're in the area we go here for a quick grab & go, especially when going to the beach. Friendly staff and parking is just the shopping area lot so lots of stalls. They also offer stamp card rewards so remember to get one & bring it every time!”

Latest Reviews
“We had just ate at Teriyaki Madness in Newark NJ about 2 weeks ago, so when we saw it here on our vacation we decided to stop. Food was amazing, service was awesome. We got chicken potstickers, crab rangoon and teriyaki bowls. I’m very picky about my teriyaki and this was fantastic! Highly recommend!”

“Hubby and I went in to try the new chicken sandwiches. He tried the hot honey chipotle one (I believe that's what it's called) and I tried the original. They were both really good. Also while we were there we saw they had some newer menu items since the last time we visited. We are planning another trip back soon to try some of the newer items. Wait staff was pleasant and attentive. Atmosphere was clean. Food was awesome.”

“While I don’t normally review McDonald’s or fast food chains, this one is an exception because it was unique. In Hawaii, they serve breakfast with rice and spam which I found to be so much fun! I wish we had this option on the east coast. You also can’t beat the atmosphere when you’re surrounded by palm trees and mountains. Although everything else is typical, this is a McDonald’s I won’t soon forget!”

“Super quick service and great prices!
I ordered four burgers and dirty fries online for a 1:00 PM pickup and let them know I’d be waiting outside. The staff was incredibly nice and had everything ready so fast. Plus, my son noticed the prices went down, they are or favorite! Heck yeah! Highly recommend! 🚀”
“Best food truck I’ve ever eaten from! I’m a western New Yorker, we cook and/or put hot sauce on everything. Not fully understanding all of the menu options, the owner, was so friendly, offered information about the types of fresh food he had and even offered us samples of the Ahi poke. Once a nay sayin skeptic, I’m now a true believer in raw fish as an amazing meal. I can’t say enough about how tasty this food was. We also had the Shrimp Tempura, Ahi Katsu and Limo Oi’o. All were absolutely some of the best food we had in over a week in Hawaii.”
