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.

    Always a great experience at Fete! Food & service is always a 10/10. We sat outdoors for the first time, and it was a little noisy - but that didn’t keep us from having a great time! Shout out to Erin (Manager) and Chris (Server) for being amazing!

    My spouse, two friends, and I had an absolutely lovely brunch outside at Fete in celebration of Luis Lising's return to where his restaurant experience began. The snacks, shared first courses, entrees and desserts were delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant!

    We loved the guest chef brunch at Fete. It was a treat for the senses. Food was creative, delicious and satisfying. Service was warm and genuine. Everything is on point at Fete and you can feel the care and enthusiasm that goes into all the little details that come together for a great experience. Thank you for a great experience!

    Great food, excellent drinks (the Mai Tai was outstanding in an island full of Mai Tais) and kind, attentive service. The Korean BBQ chicken sandwich was amazing—crunchy on the outside with the best sauce and juicy chicken. As others have noted, the restaurant is small and seats are spaced close together. However, I’d highly recommend this restaurant!

    Our reservation was for noon and we were greeted and seated right on time. Our server and the other waitstaff were courteous and we never felt rushed or neglected even though the restaurant was full. We had the Carbonara, Pork Ragout, Korean Fried Chicken with Kanpachi Fritters. Everything was amazing and we’ll definitely be going back.
