    Its not cheap. The service is allways great. The atmostphere is special, but if you have seen one before, I guess they are all pretty much the same. The Hard Rock is better!

    Hamburgers, of course. Its the american way! When you get sucked into this tourist machinery and americanized society, you just end up in the most typichal of them all...

    We visited a lot of restaurants during our two week stay in Waikiki. As there were four of us, including two teenagers, quality, quantity and price were important to us.

    There are a number of ways to reduce the cost of meals. What worked for us was: 1) we frequented buffets. That way teens could eat their fill. 2) We used coupons. Every block in Waikiki has pamphlets that encourage tourists to eat here, or visit there, or use this tour company. There are a lot of % off or $ off coupons. 3) We ate early some days - many restaurants had meals for $10 if you ate before 6:30.

    Same for bars, our hotel (the Ohana Waikiki Tower @ 200 Levers Street) had $1 maitais every evening from 6 to 9pm. We became fans of maitais.

    The best breakfast buffet we found was the Shore Bird Restaurant in the Outrigger Reef hotel on the beach - just a block and a half from our hotel.

    I would also like to emphasize the food at the food court at the Aloa Moana Shopping Centre. I have not found another shopping centre food court with the quality and variety of meal choices that we found there. See the blurb below (under Shopping) on the Aloa Moana for a little more detail.

    Located at the hilton hawaiian village. My family and I went to the Rainbow Lanai for the breakfast buffet. It featured hawaiian foods such as the pulled pork, sliced ham, fresh pinapple chunks, and pinapple juice. I thought it was okay. I did not think it was worth the amount of money that we paid for it. Sure its a buffet, but the food wasnt that good. The scrambeled eggs tasted like, egg beaters, and for the amount of money you pay, they should be fresh eggs. I was mupset about the watermelon as well. But i guess because hawaii has to import most of their items, i couldnt expect too much from them. It tasted very watered down, most likey because they are not in season in january. The omlettes were fresh eggs and they tasted delicious. The ham and bacon were good, the pulled pork was alright. And to my suprize the pinapple was very sour. I felt like i could have gotten fresher pinapple out of a can, rather than at this buffet.

    the fresh omlettes were the best, i would say go get one of those !

    This restaurant is located in the hilton hawaiian village right on the beach next to the super pool. During dinner time there is usually a live band, or just one guy out there playing a guitar, or singing. During the day you can sit inside or outdoor on the patio viewing the beautiful ocean. The food was typical american cafe food. Cheeseburger, fruit cup kinda stuff. Nothing special. The food comes in these weird baskets that take up a lot of room on the table. I knocked my drink over with it, thank goodness it was just water. The waittress didnt seem to care much she just pushed the water off the table with a plastic menu. Its just water , why not ? There seems to be a lot of sea birds all over the patio , that are very bold, and the waitresses have to chase them away with a squirt bottle. These sea birds , aka white pidgeons , stands on the backs of chairs and watch you eat , kinda creepy ... they dont scare off very easily .. but .. whatever .. didnt bother me too much ,actually made the wait go faster by watching them ! haha . Our waittress was a little rude , we were in the middle of ordering , and i guess we were talking too slow for her ,and she just said " ILL COME BACK " and she dissapeared before we could say we were ready . Who knows ... i thnk she was from new york ( haha )

    i got a cheeseburger and fries

    This restaurant, located in the rainbow bazaar at the hilton hawaiian village, became out favorite place to eat breakfast before we head off to the beach. Not only was it normal to us , because we are from new jersey/new york, but the prices were really good, and the food was amazing ! The poportions were huge, but, even if we didnt finnish, we were happy to get a little bit anyway ! We came here over and over again ! The wait staff was extremely friendly, and you can sit out side and people watch , just like new york , only with the hawaiian sea breeze !

    ham & cheese omlette, cheese burger, pancakes and salads

    This restaurant is located in the Hilton Hawiian Village . They highly recomend making reservations, however we didnt make any, but managed to slip in because it was not very crowded. We also went at 8:00 pm . I ordered the stuffed grilled chicken breast , and i thought it was very delicious. It was stuffed with, what else but ham! It was very tasty, it also had some cheese inside of it. I was not a fan of the sauce it was in, i couldnt put my finger on it, at first i thought it had to be a mushroom sauce, then i noticed chopped up black things which i late figured out was hawaiian black olives, which i was not to kean on. But, im not going to dwell on the sauce. The chicken was delish ! Also, being from new jersey, i get a little spoiled , because no matter what people say about new jersey, we still are the garden state. they call us that because we have the best produce. Our tomoatoes do not compare to other states. So i was a little upset with the brushetta here. It was really good, but the tomoatoes were .. so so .. over all, i still highly recomend this place to eat with your family, or have a romantic evening out !

    Not only are they open late, but their pizza is good too ! This was a great place to come and eat at. You can eat inside, outside, or even order take out. The pizza is made fresh, you can share a large pizza, or get your own personal pizza. Nice wait staff, fun atmosphere. Located in the hilton hawaiian village in the rainbow bazaar.

    Im a plane cheese pizza kinda girl.
