- AAnnetteVIPHawaii •22 reviews5.0Dined todayConsistently good service and food For this high end type of restaurant they should have a better check in process There is constantly walk ins from the hotel that run in ahead of people with reservations There should be a defined separate method for those coming in who have made reservations months ahead like most locals do than those walking in It’s like a cattle stampede with rude people pushing into one small doorway No other high end restaurant has this issue. Servers and food are great. Even the limited eating time works because orders come out quickly. But the entry always causes some anxiety Fix that and it’s a perfect place to eatMore infoKatsumidori Sushi TokyoPrice: Expensive• Sushi• Waikiki•4.6
- CCandiVIPDenver / Colorado •31 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoFood and service was fantastic. There was 3 of us dining and it is served family style (shared). We had Black Pepper Beef; Orange Chicken; Fried Rice; Chicken Won Tons and some Decadent Chocolate Dessert. Plenty of food — no leftovers. Will definitely go back.More infoMorimoto Asia - WaikikiPrice: Very Expensive• Asian• Waikiki•4.5
- MMattVIPHawaii •6 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoI’m admittedly, somewhat of a steak snob and I’m very hard to please. The steak at Stripsteak however was wonderful - perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the beef quality was incredible. The A5 wagyu was a little rich for me personally, but the Washugyu Ribeye was perfection. We also loved the ahi crudo roll appetizers- a must get. The hamachi and ahi tacos were also pretty good. Service was very good and professional. However, one comment I would make is that I ordered an expensive glass of Opus One to accompany dinner and they should have brought the bottle to the table and poured it in front of me. However, that was not rhetorical case. For high-end wine and alcohol, it should be presented in the bottle. More infoSTRIPSTEAK WaikikiPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Waikiki•4.6
