   Best culinary experience we’ve had in years. We can’t wait to come back and see what’s offered on the menu next time. Mahalo.

   Town was my favorite restaurant and I’ve missed it. Being at Mud Hen Water tonight reminded me of why I loved Town so much. We ordered family style and highly recommended it. Bold flavors, local ingredients, delicious food. Will be back soon.

   I felt quite disappointed by the food here. We did the family meal for four and I only enjoyed a few of the dishes. The chicken was delicious and well prepared. The meat was moist and tender, and the skin was crisp but not too greasy. We also enjoyed the brownie with sesame ice cream. Aside from those two dishes, everything else was just okay. A couple of the items were quite salty— the clams and the pohole. Unfortunately, I would not return to this restaurant and would not recommend it to friends.

   Go early for parking which is limited. Bench seating outside, but quite loud due to Waialae traffic--inside seating is very nice. 5 star food and service.

   Server was amazing; helpful, knew all the details of each dish. Atmosphere was great, music interesting and fit the vibe of the place. Dishes were unique and loved that they used a lot of local, "exotic" ingredients. The desert was a highlight.

    One of the most creatively authentic restaurants in Honolulu. Kaimuki is a culinary treasure chest and MHW is it's crown jewel. Go with a group and order everything on the menu. Way underrated bar...

    This is my favorite restaurant on Oahu! It’s farm to table, so supports sustainability and local farmers. Furthermore, it is the best of quality ingredients, nurturing nutrition (if you make wise choices), culinary creativity, beauty and amazing flavors! Check it out!

    We are a couple staying in Waikiki for a work thing who don’t like tourist stuff. So happy that our research turned up this cool little place. The food was delish! The cocktails are great. The peanut tofu is out of this world. I’m not completely sold on the beet poke but the fish sandwich is a hit. Go! It’s a quick $17 Uber ride from the Waikiki strip and well worth it.

    Excellent taste for most except laulau could use a bit more salt. We added the leftover salt/five spice from the friend chickpeas. Great waiter, answered our questions politely. Also asked our feedback to help them improve.

    The food was great. I enjoyed the small plates. What I didn’t enjoy was my son waiting an hour for his food while everyone else ate and it was only brought out AFTER I asked about it. Honest mistake? Yes.

    MHW - It had been a long time and we were happy to be back. All of the favorites are still on the menu- the beets, the roasted banana, the chicken, and the lau-lau. Amazing cocktails. Great service. We miss the fire-pit cook station- hope that comes back eventually. Nonetheless, this is a very special restaurant and we look forward to coming back...

    A wonderful experience. Inspired small plate creations featuring local farmers, Hawaiian traditions and modern culinary touches. Service was outstanding and the open, indoor/outdoor seating was very enjoyable. Great cocktails and beer/wine selections too. A memorable Honolulu experience

    Took my wife here for our 14th anniversary. Much to our surprise we were offered complimentary proseccos right off the bat. The wait staff was attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes. The big winner of the night was a twice baked banana described as a "baked potato" which was garnished with bacon bits, boiled egg and a curry sauce. Sounds off, but it so magnificent we ordered two. They have a fun play on drinks as well, my wife enjoyed the "Vishnu's Vice" a spicy drink with black pepper and tumeric, but worked very well in its flavor profile. Mud Hen Water is the type of place that reminds me of San Francisco. A quaint neighborhood elegant eatery that people uber to. Glad I took a risk and booked here instead of the normal anniversary fare. The price was surprisingly reasonable as well.

    The food at mud hen water was extraordinary! The flavors were so surprising and everything tasted like home. We got the Szechuan lotus roots and I couldn’t stop slurping up the sauce. We ordered the sourdough bread just to soak up the sauce. It was Szechuan flavored but without all the heat that makes it hard to taste! We also got the veal meatballs and the flavors were Indian inspired and the naan that went with it was probably the best naan I ever had! We also got the miso clams which were rich and buttery and full of umami. We finished with the fried chicken which was tender, juicy and crispy all at the same time. Apparently they sous vide the chicken first then fry it. This was likely one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time! So inventive and creative and just downright delicious. I can’t wait to go back again when I’m back in honolulu.

    Fantastic meal made even better by a very knowledgeable server! My sister is celiac and rainy out can be tricky, and our server didn’t skip a beat and knew all the choices she could have without modification, and those she could with one. The food was AMAZING and we were able to try so much as there were many options for her! Thank you again, truly was a treat!
