Had a great visit, got lucky with a really nice evening so the view was perfect. The half chicken and the salmon were really really tasty. We also enjoyed our drinks, the not-your-average mai tai in particular. I guess since this is a popular hotel the crowds are normal but it was pretty noisy the whole time, nothing too disturbing though. We had a waiter in training and he did good job, but with that in mind it was a little pricey. There are places nearby with stellar service at a similar price point is really what I'm getting at. But he'll get there! Overall, we had a great dinner and it's worth going back to.

Another great experience at Moku Kitchen! The bulgogi sliders on house made bread, poke tacos, crispy parmesan fries, and ravioli were all delicious. Their pizza special was birria pizza and was so good! Don’t ever skip on the cornbread with butter. And honey. The Pomelo drink was refreshing and very good, although we still miss the charcoal lemonade that used to be batched in-house. The live music created a fun and relaxing atmosphere. Our server, Juan, was genuine, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. Moku Kitchen continues to be one of our favorite places in Kakaʻako, and we will definitely be back!

The most delicious and creative menu items with mostly local ingredients. Awesome portions enough for friends to share. Amazing staff that can answer questions and accommodate palettes. Love the space. A must go for visiting Hawaii and always on the date night lineup for us residents!
