Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Kaneohe

My grown daughters and I started a new tradition of having tea at Moana Surfrider every Christmas season. The food, service and ambiance is fantastic and it’s such a nice way to reconnect during the busy season with just us girls!

Awesome brunch! Food was beautifully presented and delicious. Service was excellent. Great value for the money. There's a kamaaina discount. Valet parking at the Ritz Carlton is convenient and validated for three hours. There's a time limit of your meal posted on the website but we were fortunate that it wasn't crowded that day so we never felt rushed and far exceeded the time limit without ever feeling rushed. Exceptional choices of teas - hot and cold and champagne available if you wish. We were very fortunate to get the corner table so it was very spacious and comfortable. Some of the tables for two may feel a little close to each other but it's a very small space. server was veery helpful in giving us information on the various teas as well as the order in which to experience the various items so that we could maximize our experience. May not be the best for children but a great treat for girls of all ages.

For our 33rd anniversary, we decided to fly to Honolulu to attend the Opening Night of Cirque du Soleil’s Auana and then try Mugen Restaurant for Breakfast the following morning. We wanted to see if it was worth the trip to return for Dinner and the full experience at a later date. We were not disappointed. Ralph and Gerric served us - while also answering all of our questions about the dinner menu and service. The breakfast fare was amazing! It was fun to watch the morning chefs select fresh cuttings of herbs from their indoor hydroponic herb garden. The food was healthy and prepared beautifully. The mango chicken sausages were plated with fresh edible marigolds. It wasn’t just a meal, it was an experience. Mahalo Nui to Chefs Gino & Lowell and to Ralph and Gerric for providing us with seamless service. Patrick Toal & Jon Vagi

Lovely setting and generous tea service. I have been enjoying tea here for over 30 years. There are 3-4 doors along the mauka side of the room that open to the hotel’s interior green space, which brings in a breeze and heightens the feel of luxury dining.

We had the most lovely wine tasting event recently. The staff was attentive and welcoming. The manager Malie personally welcomed everyone and put on an amazing event. We can’t wait to go back!
