   Great ambiance, menu is not great especially if you’re vegetarian/vegan. Super over priced. The menu in Palm Springs and San Diego is SIGNIFICANTLY better Still cute though and still yummy. Way over priced but that’s Waikiki

   Great restaurant in Waikiki; not what I expected at all. Food was artfully prepared. Both seafood dishes were fresh and wonderfully flavored. Maybe the best place to eat in Waikiki

   Very nice people, like bartender, hostess and waitress. Love the brand, but not up to even a minimum standard. But stops there? TERRIBLE SERVICE (no, they were not that busy), food ABSOLUTELY MEDIOCRE ….Fish tacos were horrible and served cold, in soggy tortillas with little or no flavor. There are very good places to eat all over Waikiki but this NOT one of them.

   The appetizer was amazing, got the goat cheese dip. But both our entrees were just okay, definitely not worth the price of them. You are paying for the location. The live music was good, not too loud, but the acoustics were terrible, we could barely hear each other.

   It was so nice and was able to sit at the tables that were in the sand which gave our experience a beach vibe. Loved it here.

    Went to enjoy and celebrate my friends bday..the food & drinks came out extremely late. I understand there was a big party but you could see the disappointment and frustration on a lot of other customers faces as well. We kept ourselves occupied but what made the wait worse, they couldn’t play music on the speakers due to some fire alarm sensor. So it was very awkward and unsettling after the live music was done. By the time our main entrees came out, one person had to leave so she couldn’t eat her meal, the birthday girl had to share with me my meal and got her food to go. I kept apologizing to my gf about having her deal with this on her special night. I do want to put it out there that our server ( I think her name is Jackie) was very kind and apologetic. We knew it was not her fault and we commended her on how well she was handling the situation. She was very thorough and even spoke with management. We did appreciate the discount on the tab. I hope you guys can come up with a better system if something happens like that again.

    Do not have the guava sauce smothered ribs. They were average at best. The cooking staff needs to realize that when it comes to BBQ sometimes less is better.

    The 2nd floor part of the restaurant is a lot nicer than the 3rd floor/rooftop. It's an OK restaurant, but nothing special.

    It’s our favorite gathering place. We go there to meet our Tommy Bahama friends as well as others we just met. It’s that kind of vibe; relaxed and friendly. Managers Chris and Anthony always take the time to stop by and chat, despite being very busy. Everyone there, from the retail store on the first floor, to the check in on the second floor to the rooftop dining on the third floor; strive to make your experience spectacular. Tried the Chicken Tortilla soup because it was a little cooler. So glad I did. Treat yourself to a magical evening at Tommy Bahama Waikiki. You deserve it.

    Reserved early for a nice table, ended up sitting on the thoroughfare to the bathroom and kitchen. People that came at the same time as us with no reservation got a great table in a quiet area….what’s the point of making a reservation?

    The service was good. Unfortunately it must have been the kitchen that was slow. Our waitress continuously apologized for how long it was taking. I would recommend the restaurant as the food was good, noise level was low and the overall atmosphere was nice.

    Not impressed. Got there early. Tried to get a drink at the bar while waiting for our table and were told that we could not do that. Plus you can’t even get a drink in bar unless you had a seat. Our name was called to go upstairs and we were led to worst table in the restaurant. Tiny table in back next to wall. Asked for a different table and they complied. Felt cafeteria-ish with spotlight shining in my eyes. No tablecloth on tables. For a special evening, this restaurant is overpriced, overrated & pretentious. What a dud. See ya at Roy’s.

    We had great experience in the past on Maui and on Big Island with Tommy Bahamas. We were disappointed this time. The restaurant was extremely busy and the service suffered from it. We were also sitting in a terrible place. Our server was pleasant but was overwhelmed by the whole situation.

    The freshest chips and salsa and guacamole! Hummus was perfection…I asked for my Cesar salad to be chopped up (hate cutting wedge salads myself) and they obliged. Perfectly dressed too! Burger…oh my. To die for. Bert salad was fresh. But my favorite is the rolls and butter. Never disappoints. Glad this is a hard yo find spot. I hate it when it’s packed.

    Excellent food and service. The food was fantastic & the service was better than I could have imagined! In general conversation we mentioned we were celebrating an anniversary- we did not ask or expect any special treatment BUT the waiter brought us a happy anniversary cake. Wow! It was a very kind but special surprise! And did I mention the the food was fantastic! Thanks for a great experience!

    Seems to have lost a little verve... I still like the place but seemed a little more muted and not quite as upbeat. Food and drink were great, it's a fun idea... just seemed a little low energy. Hoping a review like this helps them re-orient because the concept is a really good one.

    The ambiance was nice and food and drinks were adequate. Coconut shrimp app was very tasty. Ordered the steak salad ($30) and the steak to lettuce ratio was small, so it was overpriced. Burger was ok, husband said he wouldn’t order it again. Ahi dip was better. It was our wedding anniversary and they comped us a dessert - signature coconut pineapple cake but it just wasn’t very flavorful. We thought we were lucky to be seated upstairs by the fire pit and sandpit to sit down for a few minutes after our meal, but were quickly ushered away by the busy blonde hostess if not ordering MORE food and drinks - apparently, those seats have waitress service. Put a damper on the whole experience. Just know that if you really want to sit at the fire pit, do so before dinner or asked to be served there.
