   Wonderful bento as usual. Should allow at least one refill of plantation iced tea but server gave us iced tea refill because they couldn’t refill plantation iced tea. Other than that, really enjoyed the whole experience.

   Very disappointing. If you are a Kahala Hotel guest, I would avoid the Sunday morning breakfast buffet at the Plumeria. Hugely crowded with many large local groups. Totally fine as they want to have their fun, celebrations, etc. I just wasn't expecting this at a luxury level Hotel, resort as the Kahala projects to be. Second, the food was terrible. Hot foods weren't even warm. Huge queue to get fresh omelet. Same queue to get a slice of beef. Fresh fruits were good. Latte was hot. Croissants were small but decent. Almost as good as the Croissants at the coffee shop at the Four Seasons Ko Olina, which are, hands down, the best on Oahu.

   We made a reservation for 9:30am. As we got there, they said we had to wait 10 minutes to be seated. We received the menus and the glasses of water immediately. The waiter was welcoming from the beginning. He wanted to know our names and used them throughout our time. He was very personable and gave us private time too. He didn’t rush us at all. The food was a disappointment. We decided to go for brunch due to the great reviews but it was underwhelming to say the least. There were three options of fish (salmon, grilled marlin, unknown since it wasn’t replenished) and both were dry. Not too many options to grab that were worth $55. Looked like there was not much to choose from to begin with. Some options were not replenished. There was assorted fruit, cereal, oatmeal, and yogurt. They had Portuguese sausage, spicy sausage, and tea dip breakfast sausage. They had a traditional eggs Benedict. They had homestyle cheesy potatoes and they lacked flavor. Japanese options like miso soup, but the other Japanese options were empty. There was thin rolled up pancakes and they were the best. Brisket was good-perfectly seasoned and cooked nicely. The red sauce to pair with the brisket was delicious. For drinks, the juices were watered down. The coffee was weak. The waiter, Brad or Bradford, made our date worth it.

   Plumeria has an excellent location. It’s far enough away from the high traffic tourist areas to enjoy a peaceful meal on the beach. The buffet has a mix of Hawaiian, American, and Asian breakfast foods. My favorite item there was the smoked brisket (if you can find a piece with a small amount of fat) and the miso soup. The morning we went for breakfast it was storming pretty bad so we had to sit indoors which was nice to watch the clouds and rough waves from a safe space. However, I’d recommend going on a clear day. Overall, the service was great and the food was okay but there are other affordable breakfast places that cost a fraction of the $55 per person buffet price.

   Food, once again, was excellent. Server Gavin did a great job. Perfect attention to detail. The setting, ambiance here is fine. Nothing special. Definitely a casual, Cafe vibe. Food is expensive. One glass of wine, one main dish, one dessert, $95 with taxes and tip.

   Service overall was a bit disjointed. My direct waiter worked hard. Pork Tonkatsu was excellent. Miso tofu soup was very good. Rice was a bit dry (it's not from Japan). It would better if Japanese Bulldog sauce was used.

    The Bento and Loco Moco were the food selection winners among our group members. Service is always pleasant and efficient. The lilikoi tart is especially tasty and we order that even when the Bento comes with a macadamia nut tart with ice cream. This place has become my go-to spot for most occasions, especially visiting friends and family.

    Morning breakfast was delicious. From the lobster Benedict, the black truffle eggs, papaya and bloody Mary’s, who could ask for more?

    They wanted to give me the only outdoor table without an umbrella. Since two of us sunburn easily they put us right next to the buffet line so our chairs were constantly getting hit by people. It took almost 20 mins before a server even came over to take our order!! Very poor service for a high end hotel!

    First, the positives. The oceanside setting is beautiful. The mai tais were excellent. Our party of four would have had a second round of drinks if our server had returned, but she must’ve fallen into the ocean and been swept out to sea. The buffet itself was mediocre at best. Our experience began with a mediocre hostess at the restaurant’s entrance who was unwelcoming and disinterested. The buffet’s selections were very limited and tasted blah, or even bad, for the most part. The crab legs tasted old, and the shells were rubbery and hard to open. Tiny strips or very hot peppers or in several dishes which affected my friends first bite of food. He was in pain for five minutes, desperate for some bread to eat to lessen the pain, but there was no bread anywhere on the Buffet. A sign in front of a soggy bowl of meat said “crispy chicken.” A Chef was carving prime rib ridiculously thin, and a bowl labeled “au jus” was just heavy brown gravy. The calamari was rubbery and tasteless. None of the shrimp was particularly tasty. There were a pitiful handful of desserts on a small table, like they were an afterthought. There was a soft, serve ice cream machine, and the ice cream was pretty good. It tasted homemade. Other than that the few dessert squares were colorful, but bland. Overall, this buffet was a pitiful spread for an alleged luxury hotel to offer, for $90 per person, not including drinks, tax or tip. There is no excuse for bad seafood in Hawaii and especially for that price. Soft-serve ice cream should not be at the highlight of a seafood buffet. But it was a beautiful outside, setting for a meal.

    Plumeria Beach HouseResponded on January 17, 2023Aloha! Clearly we did not live up to your standards ... or ours. Apologies we did not do a better job for you and your guests. Appreciate the candid feedback. Mahalo.

This place is charming with a friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. The price was reasonable considering the quality of the food and presentation. My out of town guest did not want to leave.

    A wonderful venue. One of my favorite places for dinner outdoors. Very good food and service. While the menu is good, I would love to see some variation. The Musubi appetizer and the butterfish miso yaki are excellent. Also, it would be nice if they put candles on the tables outside. They did it because we asked, but it would be a small investment that would go a long way. Thank you.

    Great service, mostly well-prepared food, beautiful view, but there is a terrible fly problem. We were seated inside, and there were a few flies buzzing around our table and more around the food tables. A diner who was seated outside remarked that the flies were even worse outside. Any recommendation would come with a warning about the fly problem. I hope it is resolved, because negatively impacts an otherwise pleasant dining experience.
