About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
2022 James Beard Award Winner for Best Chef Northwest & Pacific.

Rooted in the local farm-to-table movement — a place where seasonality and culinary tradition are celebrated in tandem. One part Hawaii and one part Brooklyn. The atmosphere shares a brasserie feel with a laid-back island sensibility—a celebration and homage to all of our favorite things we enjoy eating and drinking.

Crafted with brick & reclaimed wood, our urban Hawaiian farmhouse features an open kitchen, lush plant wall, brick walls, and lots of natural light in a historic Chinatown building. The bar mixes classic and modern cocktails with artisanal flare with a well-curated wine list.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Robynne Maii

  • Award icon
    James Beard Award2022

From the OpenTable editors: The first native Hawaiian woman to win a James Beard Award, chef Robynne Maii adds island twists to brasserie comforts at the nationally acclaimed Fête, like bavette steak glazed in a sticky-sweet sauce and topped with a sunny egg, carbonara tossed with the local favorite sausage, and smoked ono (wahoo) layered into a club sandwich. Don’t miss the rocky road ice cream—Maii originally trained as a pastry chef in NYC before bringing the party home to Honolulu.

    The food was absolutely amazing! Staff were also equally as impressive; especially the hostess, who was so nice and helpful. We ate outside and they staff was very attentive, which I feel is not the case at most restaurants when seated outside - so I greatly appreciate the attentiveness! The food was delightfully unusual and so, so fresh. Great first dinner on our honeymoon!

    In my opinion, this is the best restaurant I have been to on Oahu! I have been on Oahu for about one month and if I could go to Fete every night for dinner I would! Hoping that they open a Fete in my hometown sometime soon! Definitely give it a try! It's amazing!

    This was my second time to this restaurant. The first visit was amazing (food and service). Last night the interaction with the host was great, the waitress did her job, I didn’t get a I’m happy you are here feeling from her. She was prompt with good eye contact. No smile though. The food was over cooked and extremely salty. Two of us had the fresh fish special. We both tend to use more salt that most and we both thought the food was overly salty. I noticed the table next to us actually sent their fish back. All restaurants have an off day/night.

    Excellent staff, food & drinks were stellar, though the outdoor seating is pretty tight. Try to eat indoors if you can.

    The beet salad was outstanding. The cocktail prices are high and the wine prices even higher. The good news is good delicious and we drink less!
