This is notably one of the best dining experiences we’ve had while in Oahu. Very understated space, with an amazing focus on service and quality of ingredients. The flavor profiles were simply outstanding. It’ll be a must visit every trip.

We absolutely LOVED our experience at Hau Tree. We went there for sunset for one of the dinners on our honeymoon and Luke our server made us feel so special. Cocktails were delicious, food & service was amazing and ambience was unmatched. I would recommend this place for sure, 10/10.

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Earl's Waikiki, and we couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. A special thank you to our waitress, Kaiea, who made our evening truly memorable. From the moment we were seated, Kaiea was warm, attentive, friendly, and genuinely caring. She made us feel welcomed and special throughout the evening. Her recommendations were excellent, and her positive energy added so much to our celebration. Kaiea played a huge part in making our dinner such a great experience. Earl's Waikiki is fortunate to have someone as outstanding as her on their team. Thank you, Kaiea, for making our anniversary dinner so worthwhile. ❤️🥂✨

We were delighted to have a window-side table prepared for us, where our family could celebrate both a birthday and a wedding. The service was excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful sunset as time seemed to slow down. It was a truly special and memorable experience for our family. Thank you for making our celebration so wonderful!
