    Great meal. Wonderful and creative preparation. Every dish was excellent. The service was good and reasonably attentive. My biggest surprise was that the restaurant advertised “family style” and sharing, but the menu was not designed for it. An appetizer could accommodate one or two people and an entree was for one. Kind of standard and it missed my expectations.

    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.

    They accommodated us to move tables out of the sun and the Brussels sprouts were a hit. My husband’s pork sandwich was a little dry but my burger and fries were good.
