The Mai Tai bar is a wonderful place to spend time having a drink and watching the world go by. The Mai Tai bar at the Ala Moana shopping centre is also a great place to have lunch between shop-to-you drop!! And when you drop you go back for more Mai Tai's!!!!
I went out with some friends and we had a great time there. We pick our seats and our waitress was the best, she told us her honest opinions about drinks and food. We couldn’t have asked for a better time!!
Though this may be a resort bar and restaurant, Mai Tai Bar still delivers. Keeping with the pink theme of the Royal Hawaiian, all the tables, umbrellas, chairs and lanterns here were nicely decorated in pink. Seating is first come first served so the tables along the beach with sunset views were taken, but we still managed to grab one with great views.
They get busy during the dinner rush but the staff were still really friendly and helpful. The drinks were amazing and the name does not disappoint, the Mai Tai here was fantastic, just the right flavors and a good amount of alcohol to back it up.
Great cocktail selection including Mai Tai's with a smaller menu but paired with great view out towards the ocean and a very friendly staff.
We sat at the bar and our favorite drink by far was the 96 degrees in the shade, it comes with an extra dark rum floater and a side cup with more drink.
We also loved the Ahi Poke Bowl and split it between the two of us. The staff were all extremely friendly, I'd recommend coming here for a great view of the sunset.
Great to have an iconic cocktail at an iconic bar! I love Mai Tais, and this bar can claim to be the home of this version - with pineapple juice. (I prefer this over the 1944 version, which has no pineapple juice).
The servers were attentive, and the garlic fries were an amazing delight, too!
If you love tropical drinks, then you owe yourself a pilgrimage to the Mai Tai Bar. ( did I mention that the beach looks great from here, too? :-)
The experience was just Excellent!! The server was humorous and let us dine breakfast by the beach. The pink pancake flavor was sweet and unexpectedly delicious. I’ve added guava to the açaí bowl and glad I did. The fruit was fresh and sweet.

We didn't eat here, just had drinks. Over $20 for a small Mai Tai seems unreasonable to me. I tried it, and it wasn't worth the price in my opinion. I get it...it is a signature drink; however, all over Waikiki they have different signature items and nowhere else is it so disparate between what you get for a signature item and how much you pay for the value of what you're getting.
Other than that, we had a great experience! The local beer selection was better than I thought it would be, the service was excellent (thank you so much to Kealoha, she was very attentive even though she was crazy busy!). The view was also second to none, being right on the beach. I would definitely recommend going, but I would avoid the Mai Tai except to just experience having one.
(...unless they lower the price under $21 for a small Mai Tai? Anyone?)
A fantastic place to chill out by the beach. Very busy place yet attentive waitress. There was a line to get in around 7pm. We ordered their signature Mai Tai which was delicious. $21 each. We also ordered truffle fries which were absolutely delicious. They were served with caramelised charlottes, chives, parsley and Parmesan cheeses served with a black pepper garlic alioli. The fries were the best I have ever had! We’d go back again when we are back in Waikiki. :)
We love this bar where you can drink the great mai tai. The foods there are very flavorful also. We had the special mahi burger and it was scrumptious! The atmosphere is relaxed. The live music was great also. It is one of our go to spots while we stay in Waikiki.
It’s Hawaii so $17 for a small drink is worth it. The pina colada was great. And that’s coming from someone who doesn’t drink and prefers a fruity nonalcoholic drink. There was about a 30 minute wait on a Saturday night with no room left at the bar. Good thing I only ordered one drink because the server was hard to find. It’s a bar inside of the Royal Hawaiian so it’s great if you’re staying there. The food looked good but I didn’t try any.
We do like coming here. Great little bar area by Waikiki Beach....on the beach. Can be difficult to get into, as it is very popular. It's a very busy area, but the bartenders work their butts off. We came for the Vic's 44 Mai Tai today. As we have that specific recipe and have had made them ourselves, their Mai Tais really come up short. I am sure they premake a portion and that reflects poorly in their drink. Keep in mind, we go across the country and internationally to try Mai Tai drinks. We were disappointed here. They do have lots of other drinks, but everything is in mass quantities and made quickly. Although this fell short, we still enjoy coming here. Note: the bartender did try to fix the drink, although I just couldn't drink it. He was very nice and accommodating and ultimately I switched it out for a gin and tonic. My husband switched his out for the Royal Mai Tai, which was so much better.
Can you go to the Mai Tai Bar and not get a Mai Tai? This is one of the unique versions with a Vic’s 44. This is a lime forward and funky drink. Delicious and boozy!
