We ate at Longhi’s for dinner...loved it! We tried Roy’s last night and both ordered their pre fixe dinner for $59 each, with the main course being a combination of macadamia crusted fish and a beef short rib. It was good, but the fish had a piece of a hard bone (or something!) that was an unpleasant surprise, and the beef short rib was just ok. Also, the first course came out about 30 seconds after we ordered it, which tells me it was not made to order. We normally don’t order dessert, but of course ate the molten chocolate cake and it was delicious.Other places you might want to look into for dining are Longhi's next door to Aulani. I really enjoy their various eggs benedicts at breakfast. For dinner we love Roy's with molten chocolate cake for dessert! A family fave! Monkeypod at Happy Hour is a great deal! Since you have a car, Kalapawai Deli is also delish! Counter service for breakfast & lunch then table service for dinner. ENJOY!
The place was very busy, and I didn’t feel particularly safe eating indoors with no windows open or apparent ventilation and so many people (even though the tables were spaced apart there were a bunch of them in a large enclosed space) so luckily they found a table for us outside. Service was friendly enough but overall I got the impression the place was a bit of a high end assembly line, a little stodgy, and not as good as either Makahiki, Longhi’s or the Olelo Room. Not sure we’ll be back.
Thanks for the Kalapawai Deli recommendation. We might try it out tonight!
