    I made a reservation for our wedding anniversary. Obviously, I requested a place where I could watch live music. Through chat, the person in charge said he would arrange for that table. But the hostess made a mistake. I told the hostess what I had requested, but she moved to her seat with a not-so-pleasant look on her face. I also asked when the live performance started, but she was that she didn't know that. And My server Ryan was friendly, but the service wasn't great. It felt like they were obsessed with receiving service tips. This was my third visit and the service was the worst. This is the only steakhouse I like in Hawaii. I visit this place about twice a year and this time was a little disappointed.

    One of our destination dining spots when visiting Honolulu. The ambience, service, open grille, decor are all outstanding. The front desk greetings were warm and sincere, the valets were friendly. Our Server Chris was perfect; personable, polished, and very professional. The service team were attentive. My wife’s steak was excellent quality and cooked just as requested. The 4/5 rating reflects my disappointing lobster tail which was chewy and tough. We will definitely return because we love this place so much. Thank you once again for a very nice evening.

    Hy's is a true traditional Steak Restaurant in all the good ways. The use of Prime Beef, the local wood adding the smoked favor to restaurant and the food. The lighting is a bit brighter than in the old days, but that is to be expected. The service was above average and drinks were correctly poured (no shorting the client).

    Everything was outstanding…the restaurant was highly recommended by some friends and they were correct. My family and I had a very enjoyable experience and it made the celebration of my birthday special dining at HY’s. The only disappointment we had was the noise (yelling) and small children running around …this type of high quality restaurant should consider having a policy that children under 10 are not allowed..specially when parents can’t control their children.

    We were seated 20 minutes late despite making a reservation to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Rather than offering us to have a drink at the bar, they forced us to wait in the back room just outside the restrooms, which was reminiscent of a nursing home with people walking around in socks. Restrooms were disgusting considering that this is a supposed high-end steak house. I ordered the wagyu snake river filet and it was dried and flavorless. My husband ordered the Delmonico and it was tough and fatty…. a really awful cut of meat. Dessert was ok. They offered to comp us cocktails when they seated us for the delay in seating us. However, as they were preparing our check, one of the managers came by and asked us if the drinks were transferred over from the bar. Seems like they wanted to charge us for the comped drinks. The servers look over-worked and didn’t seem happy to be there. I really felt bad for them. I would not recommend anyone come here expecting a high end quality steak dinner.

    It’s been over 15 years since I dined here and it’s kind of the same (don’t know if that’s good or bad). The beef Wellington was good and my husband’s peppercorn steak was tasty. We also opted for the bananas foster show for dessert😊 For the price of entrees, it’s ok but with so many restaurants in Hawaii with updated menus, atmospheres and offerings, we might not be back until their complete remodel in 2024. Hy’s was a nostalgic dining experience for us lastnight. But the best experience at Hy’s is the service. Our server Trevor and serving partner Aiden are the best! Very attentive, personable, and knowledgeable. I think if the service wasn’t 💯 plus, it would have been a standard night out for us. The people working at Hy’s are probably the best in the industry. From check-in to meal completion, everyone was amazing and pleasant.

    お料理はとても満足ですが、サービスは最低に近いです。高級店なのにメニューの説明なし、フォークの取り替えも無言。ただ皿を置いていくだけの扱いはひどすぎました。料理人の努力が無駄になるサービスです。それならチップは求める資格はないと言える最低のサーバーでした。

    The food, service, atmosphere, attention to detail are always the best! We always try to dine here when we are on vacation. From the moment you walk in, you know you are in for a special treat. The food is fantastic (we had the filet mignon) and their Bananas Foster prepared table side is wonderful! It is a wonderful dining experience!

    ドレスコードはありますが、それほどのお店ではありません。3人で予約したのに2人分のセットしかない席に案内されすぐ用意すると言われましたがドリンクオーダー、チーズトーストが運ばれても用意される気配なく、こちらからリクエストしてやっと用意されました。またトイレもビルとの共同トイレです。まだまだ残念な点はあります。お肉は美味しかったですがその他は味が日本人には濃くどれも値段の割に、という感じです。円安の影響もありますが3人でおすすめコースとワインをボトルでお願いしチップ込みで約10万です。ワイキキで少し小洒落たお店でお食事を、という時はアリですが、普通に美味しいお肉を食べたいなら他のお店でも十分だと思います。ルースズ、ウルフギャング、BLTなど。後、量は多いので行かれる方はアラカルトをシェアしていただくことをお勧めします。

    The atmosphere is wonderful. The service and people were superb. The French onion soup was good. The filet was just ok. The vegetables were awful! They tasted like a frozen mix barely heated. They were inedible- worse than the cheapest diner I’ve ever been to. The baked potato was a baked potato. Nothing special. We have looked forward to going to Hy’s because of the reputation but won’t return. Incredibly overpriced for the very poor food quality.

    Another excellent dining experience at Hy's. From arrival to departure, and throughout the entire dinner, the staff at Hy's provide excellent service... attentive and engaging. Our favorites continue to delight (Escargot, Oysters Rockefeller). The Akaushi Wagyu special was an excellent choice and prepared as requested. The flambe desserts are a must (Chocolate Lovers, Bananas Foster). So fun to watch and even more fun to eat. Highly recommend Hy's for a delightfully, exquisite dining experience.

    Everything was exceptional. Steaks and desserts were to die for. Customer service by all staff was off the hook! I was celebrating my 50th birthday so I requested for a specific table and they granted it! Ambience was perfect with a live guitarist playing romantic music in the background all night long. This is my favorite steak house. Love it and will come back over and over again!
