We plan to be seated for Dinner no later than 7pm.
Sorry to say this place does not take reservations, however, we expect no problems being seated.

I love the ambiance at Haleiwa Joe’s. It’s so romantic and the garden is so beautiful. All the fish dishes I’ve gotten have been tasty. The desserts are great too.

The biggest draw is Haiku Gardens–beautiful both day and night. Second biggest draw is the Paradise Pie. And the reason we keep on coming back is for their most delicious prime rib. Service is excellent.

Cocktails and Dinner 6:30pm

La Mariana Sailing Club (The Hide-a-Way)

50 Sand Island Access Rd
Honolulu, HI 96819

Parking: Street, but free and usually no problem

La Mariana is a Sailing Club…sorta! The atmosphere is a perfect spot of tranquility to start the inevitable unwinding process. Nice generous pours of rum and smiling friendly service = relaxation at its finest. My favorite description of this place is: “Think of what the ideal tiki bar would look like”. No air conditioning here, open to the harbor view. We’ll get a great seat, enjoy good food, a cold brew and count the pufferfish light fixtures, tiki’s or number of shells. The evening piano music adds to the ambiance.

The Seafood Brochette a favorite. It consisted of shrimp, scallops, mahi, and an assortment of vegetables. The mushrooms are unforgettable. The brochette rests in a thin layer of white cheesy sauce, and while the pieces of seafood were fabulous a la carte, the sauce added an addictive element to the taste. Another favorite is the Seafood Stuffed Eggplant! A must try!

Italian food has great regional variations depending on the birthplace of the chef. Chef and Owner Sergio Mitrotti is from Torino in Northern Italy, and came to Honolulu after spending time in New York and Los Angeles.

His cooking style, as Italian as they come, Cafe Sistina offers a country Italian menu and a fusion cuisine integrating West Coast fresh flavors and the produce indigenous to Hawaii. The restaurant stocks an extensive wine collection from Italy and the US and features a good selection of imported and domestic beer.

1314 S King St
Honolulu, HI

Parking: Free. Enter from behind the restaurant on Queen Street.

Someone Said:
I’ve been coming here for years as it is one of my father’s favorite Italian restaurants.
Besides the artistic awesomeness of this place, the food is really top notch.

So far after dozens of visits I can’t say that we’ve had a bad experience, I enjoy being able to bring my own wine with a nominal corkage fee ($12.50). The parking is easy and free at night, which you can’t complain about in town especially on King Street. The winner here though… is the Veal. Veal Picatta, Veal Porcini, Veal, veal… VEAL. Hands down one of the best places to go if you have a craving for a fork tender, melts in your mouth, veal experience. Generous portion size
PLUS you get a tasty pasta with your veal dish. I can’t say enough.

Koko Marina Pub
Koko Marina Pub

Koko Marina Center (Hawaii Kai)
7192 Kalaniana’ole Highway
Honolulu, Hawaii

Featuring a state-of-the-art beer delivery system with 24 taps, the restaurant is adorned with ohia posts, copper-mica light fixtures featuring Kona Brewing Company’s various beer logos. With colored concrete, koa wood furnishing and the unique use of brewing equipment as functional decor – an old brew kettle and a retired brewery mash tun recycled as exterior signage and to form the exhaust hood for the pizza ovens located in the open air kitchen. The Full-panel windows are retractable and provide an airy atmosphere throughout the restaurant. With ample outdoor seating and views of Koko Marina and the lush green mountains that form Hawaii Kai’s backdrop.

Kona Brewing Company was started in the spring of 1994 by father and son team Cameron Healy and Spoon Khalsa. Originally from Oregon and with their love of the Big Island of Hawaii they saw a need to create fresh, locally made brews with the same spirit and passion for quality that existed in the Pacific Northwest. The result is three flagship beers that are now widely distributed, and approximately 10 other styles of beer are brewed on a regular basis.

A quick review of the wonderful menu reaches all the tastes you desire. This restaurant including a daily fish special prepared three different ways with the fish caught daily right from the area! Talk about FRESH!
