About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
2022 James Beard Award Winner for Best Chef Northwest & Pacific.

Rooted in the local farm-to-table movement — a place where seasonality and culinary tradition are celebrated in tandem. One part Hawaii and one part Brooklyn. The atmosphere shares a brasserie feel with a laid-back island sensibility—a celebration and homage to all of our favorite things we enjoy eating and drinking.

Crafted with brick & reclaimed wood, our urban Hawaiian farmhouse features an open kitchen, lush plant wall, brick walls, and lots of natural light in a historic Chinatown building. The bar mixes classic and modern cocktails with artisanal flare with a well-curated wine list.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Robynne Maii

  • Award icon
    James Beard Award2022

From the OpenTable editors: The first native Hawaiian woman to win a James Beard Award, chef Robynne Maii adds island twists to brasserie comforts at the nationally acclaimed Fête, like bavette steak glazed in a sticky-sweet sauce and topped with a sunny egg, carbonara tossed with the local favourite sausage, and smoked ono (aka wahoo fish) layered into a club sandwich. Don’t miss the rocky road ice cream – Maii originally trained as a pastry chef in NYC before bringing the party home to Honolulu.

    Never a bad time here. An absolute go to for great consistent quality and great service. This is a popular spot, so make a rezzie, ideally well in advance. I chose quiet because we sat outside. Inside can be a bit more noisy. I'll keep returning.

    Fete has and continues to be one of our favorite places to eat at. We love the food there. My other half always gets the grilled cheese sandwich. It’s totally on another level.

    We have dined at Fête a handful of times and the food and service have always been outstanding! Definitely recommend dining inside as the hustle and bustle of Chinatown don’t always mesh well with an intimate dining experience.

    We ate at the bar. Seats were comfortable, food, drinks and service were excellent. We had the Fete trio of dips with grilled sourdough bread as an appetizer and split the Korean BBQ chicken sandwich - both were amazing.
