Why this place isn't busier I don't know. Really well done dining room and great service. So nice to eat in a place that isn't some stupid fancy hotel restaurant. The design of the Bar and dining room is amazing and harkens one back to when Waikiki was fun and full of life. Before Waikiki was Destroyed by the developer Mcgnaughten and ABC stores. The food here is amazing and great attention to detail I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place.

Let me start by giving Mahina and Suns 5 WOWs. That is 1 WOW for each item l ordered: Mango #5 (a complex handcrafted cocktail mixed up by bartender Jules); warm banana bread (get it before 5:30 pm); chickpea fritters (l almost placed a second order); Off the Hook (a signature dish that featured meaty wahoo - aka ono - atop Hawaiian potato puree, with asparagus and edible flowers); and banana pudding (classic comfort food topped with chocolate cookie crumbs). I was blown away by the innovation, flavors, and presentation of each dish. But another (and biggest) WOW goes to server Tressa, who was one of the most welcoming, personable, knowledgeable and caring servers l've ever met. Kudos to her professionalism and recommendations. Her personal and attentive service made the evening extra-special and unforgettable. And a bonus WOW to local singer John Akapo, who performs Wednesday evenings on the elevated area at the end of the pool (Mahina and Suns has dinner seating by the pool or elevated adjacent to and above). I came back from last year's visit just to see John, whose smooth vocal stylings embody the beauty of Hawai. Do not miss this gifted singer. Each of the evening's components - amazing cuisine, incredible service, relaxed setting, or evening entertainment - could individually be enough to recommend Mahina and Suns for dinner. But, put them all together and this is my do not miss (especially with John on Wednesdays) recommendation in Waikiki.

Such a great vibe! Dinner was fantastic! Cocktails were unique. Live music from the lobby was just loud enough to hear without being overwhelming. Service was outstanding, attentive but not overbearing. Would definitely come back!

Mahina and Sun's is quite a little gem in the middle of Waikiki. The food was delicious and the menu highlighted several locally sourced items. The service was welcoming and friendly. It's a fun, family-style atmosphere and a great place to share starters. We will definitely be back.
