    Amazing experience! Excellent service. The waitstaff are all so kind and helpful. They gave us a notice that they were very busy, which was nice to give us a heads up. We thought food and drinks came out at a reasonable pace. It was windy for lunch service so we went under their private event area. Management and multiple team members checked in on us. We had a great time! The Wild Mushroom Farmbread and the Burger was a table favorite. My partner loved their Kula Tai, I had a Flight 4051 with their FY gin and it was so delicious. Will be returning!

    We had a wonderful dinner last night. Starting with cocktails that were excellent, crab cake appetizers and salads and main dishes were all great. Their Coconut curry was so good and big portions so I took the rest home for lunch. Everyone else had either Monchpng or Ahi and were all happy with what they ordered. The new general manager dropped by to introduce herself so that was a plus. We were too full for dessert but the offerings were great.

    From the moment we stepped into Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, we were blown away by the ambiance, service, and, most importantly, the food! Every dish was a masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Even our two young children (3 and 6) loved their Starburst drinks and teriyaki steaks. A special shoutout to our server, Bryan, who truly elevated our evening. His knowledge of the menu, attentive service, and friendly demeanor made us feel so well taken care of. We left completely satisfied and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

    This is our 4th time eating breakfast at Dukes. The Ali'i Bloody Mary was great, and my Kama'eina omelet with Portuguese sausage, and more was delicious. My wife enjoyed her macadamia nut pancakes. The view of the ocean was great, and our server was attentive but not overbearing.
