    I had not been to afternoon tea here for some time. They’ve most definitely elevated the food and dessert. We also liked smelling all of the teas before ordering. Great service. Beautiful venue, high ceilings and airy with colorful chandeliers. It was the perfect place to relax and catch up with friends. We will most definitely be back.

    I would have given a much higher rating except the vegetarian offerings were few and meh. On the other hand, my husband's steak frites were superb. The ambiance was wonderful! We sat outside and enjoyed the fresh breezes, the ocean, the trees. It was so lovely. And, important for us older folk, in was quiet enough that we were easily able to carry on a conversation. It's on the pricy side, but if your not a vegetarian, it is well worth the money.

    The music by Kamaka Camarrilo was superb. It perfectly set the ambiance. The drinks and food were on point. The location is spectacular. Overall a wonderful experience. Highly recommend, especially if you’re staying at The Kahala.

    My friend and I thought it was a bit expensive, especially when we converted it back to New Zealand dollars, plus having already paid a reservation fee ,then the price of the high tea.Hotel is lovely and the Vernada had a lovely atmosphere.

    I don't have sufficient enough words to describe how nice this experience was. The resort itself is really nice but this was my first time eating at the veranda. We went for tea time. It was such a pleasant experience. The food was nice and the atmosphere was awesome The live music was a pleasant surprise. And the tea itself was so fragrant and flavorful. I'll definitely be back.

    An outstanding view, a varied and tasty menu, plus attentive service made this a perfect stage for world-class entertainment. The night we dined here, we were honored to hear Nicholas Kaleikini perform along with a superb pianist. Unforgettable!
