Updated May 13, 2024
Honolulu’s most beautiful restaurants are all about letting the postcard-perfect surroundings in. And many of the dining rooms in the city’s especially drop-dead gorgeous restaurants take design cues from the land and the sea.
Tall Victorian arches open up to oceanfront views at a regal afternoon tea favorite. Granite floors, shimmery chandeliers, and panoramic sea vistas give a Mediterranean gem its special occasion-cred. A white-tableclothed French restaurant on an especially pristine stretch of Waikīkī has been a celebration magnet for over 60 years.
From the airiest lanais to chic nature-inspired interiors, Honolulu’s dining rooms offer various spins on beauty. Read on for a guide to the city’s 12 most gorgeous restaurants.
