We came here to celebrate our wedding anniversary! Service was friendly (not too casual or formal). The food was really good! Especially, beef cheek stew was so tender and delicious!!!
At the end, they prepared completely coconuts cake! I love it☺️ The atmosphere was so great too! I recommend for your special day💓
We chose to do brunch here on the morning of my husband’s birthday and it was our last day at the hotel.
Orchids is an upscale restaurant situated at Halekulani Hotel. It is on the ground floor, has a beautiful decor and nice vibe. We were booked for 10am and it’s already busy. Booking is essential.
While having brunch, guests were entertained with live music on the background. There was a pianist playing on the grand piano which placed on the left side of the entrance. That was very entertaining and created a lovely atmosphere.
Their buffet brunch has a good selection of food. The oysters were so plump and juicy. Roasted prime rib and turkey were cooked to perfection. So moist and tender. I also tried their popovers which is similar to Yorkshire pudding. But I must say we were a little disappointed. The food was lacking in taste and flavour especially the crab legs. Also for the price, we expected for a better spread. This is my opinion. People don’t have to agree with me. In contrast, their desserts were delicate and delicious. Halekulani coconut cake is the best.
Staffs were all very attentive and efficient.
What a wonderful experience! Orchids restaurant in Waikiki offers a delightful dining experience with its inviting ambiance and exquisite menu. The oceanfront setting adds to the charm, providing a serene backdrop for a memorable meal. The diverse menu showcases a fusion of flavors, and the presentation of dishes is impeccable. The attentive staff contributes to the overall positive experience, ensuring guests feel well-cared-for. We were not able to get a reservation to watch the sunset, but the beachfront setting would have been perfect! DH had the prawns and scallops and I had the Day Boat in Carta Fata (which is like a cioppino) cooked in an oven safe bag. Because it was cooked in the bag, the flavors were so well immersed in every single bite! We finished off dinner with a beautiful tiramisu and an affogato. The tiramisu was so beautifully presented and delicious!
While it may be on the higher end price-wise, Orchids is a worthy choice for those seeking a combination of culinary excellence and a scenic atmosphere in Waikiki.
If you plan ahead try to book a reservation during sunset or Sunday Brunch!
