    We choose Beach Tree to take the kids to because of the kids menu. They were so welcoming of us and our kids. They gave us bread and kids utensils. The view of the sunset was amazing and there was a fire dance. We would go back in an instant

    We've eaten at Beach Tree many times. The food was by far the best this time. Whereas it's normally good, but not amazing, this time most of the dishes were quite good, well prepared and seasoned. The exception was the lobster ravioli. It was dominated by a heavy lemon flavor that covered up the lobster. (Lemon on lobster is great, but this was very strong.) Also, while the servers were attentive, they seemed especially harried. There was a long wait, perhaps 20-25 minutes, between our appetizers and our mains. This was by far our best experience, and the view and setting are gorgeous.

    Celebrated my husband 70th birthday at the restaurant. From the minute we arrived we felt so welcomed and taken care of. Jasmine was our server and she was outstanding! The food was delicious and the view was stunning. Thanks for a beautiful night.

    We've ate here for lunch and dinner was so much more special. Live music and a different menu, happy we came to celebrate my husband's 45th. We had drinks at the Residence House before and it was 'chef's kiss'

    This was a disappointing experience. The venue was nice, but it was very noisy and a band was playing as well. The bread basket ($18) contained one type of bread only and certainly didn't seem anything special. The chicken dish was dry and and an add on portion of chicken for my salad were gummy, cold chicken strips (think frozen grilled chicken strips not fully defrosted). The presentation of the food was also pretty uninspiring. This is one to miss.

    Aloha Ms. Karin, Thank you again for your feedback and for joining us on June 29th. I’m truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations — especially in regard to the food quality and presentation. That’s not the level of excellence we strive for, and we’re grateful you took the time to share your thoughts. I’ve reached out to you directly to personally follow up and hope we can continue the conversation. Please feel free to reach me, if there’s anything further you’d like to share, or if we can welcome you back for a better experience.

    Wonderful dinner for family of 5. Excellent service next to the beach and ocean during sunset was spectacular. All firsts, appetizers, pasta and fish were perfectly cooked and seasoned. All desserts were equally outstanding. Best meal on Hawaii.
