Celebrating a couple of birthdays with a stay at Aulani. Wandered across the road as part of last minute dinner plans and couldn’t be happier we did. Food and service were spectacular. The raw plate was the best I have ever had and the cream pies were simply exquisite - when the crust has you raving you are into something good. I would highly recommend. Oh, and the mai tai’s - works of art. Thanks for a great meal and wonderful evening.
We sat at their outside patio to enjoy the breeze and take in the scenery. It was clean and the tables had shade. Our server (I unfortunetly can not remember her name) was incredible. She was friendly, patient, and attentive. Most of what we ordered was at her recommendation and she did not disappoint! Everything from appetizer to dessert was fantastic, fresh, and full of flavor. This was my second visit here and definitely not my last. The pineapple cream pie was the best!
Amazing. One of the highlights of my trip to Oahu. The food here is simply great - order any of the seafood and you can’t go wrong.
The pies are GREAT! Had the coconut one and it was too good. The service is also really high quality. Definitely one the best restaurants in the area.
Great food and fun. Bar is super fun and the menu boasts lots of options for lunch and dinner. This location was close to our hotel and nice for a little change of pace.

The place had a nice vibe, good food, and friendly service.
The food was good, the fish was fresh and delicious. Very tender and smooth. The pizza was nice and cheesy. The steak was buttery smooth, tender, and melts your mouth.
The service was nice, but the interaction felt a bit forced. They were kind and always made sure our drinks were always topped off.
The atmosphere is better for those who are in an upbeat mood or would like to party. Not really a family-oriented restaurant at night. Still, an amazing place to eat at but it will be loud while there at night.
Convenient restaurant if you are staying at Aulani resort. Food is good, nice atmosphere and the service is great. The Broccoli salad is as tasty and different but small, be aware. The smoothie was excellent
Monkeypod Kitchen is a popular spacious restaurant in the Ko Olina resort. They have fantastic happy hour specials which rival other restaurants in the area. I was a bit disappointed with the wings appetizer, all drumsticks 🍗and somewhat burnt/excessively charred. 😕 But our server was attentive, and it is a lovely spot with beautiful views. I would go back but wouldn't order the wings. The pizzas were tasty 😋 and part of the happy hour specials.
We always try to make it in when we visit. The food and live music make for a great pairing.
Tonight was our favorite John Akapo. Love him on the guitar.
The ahi steak was wonderful as well as the lobster and seafood pasta. The pies are always tops (banana cream tonight) and I think my daughter approached Nirvana when she tried the Sage Creamery sorbet (strawberry-guava).
We had a wonderful birthday celebration for our 19 year old granddaughter tonight at MonkeyPod Kitchen. The decor is inviting and relaxing. Our waitstaff, Joey, took good care of us the whole night through. He always had a smile on his face and was very helpful when ordering. Our food came out freshly prepared and locally sourced in what seemed like mere seconds. All the food was appetizing and delicious. Joey took the lead when time to celebrate the birthday girl with lighting the candle on the Matcha Cream Pie. Would definitely go again to this popular restaurant...awesome vibes here.
Food was so delicious. The poke tacos are phenomenal, the mai tai was the best I’ve had, and the live music provided a great ambiance. Service was amazing. Glad I spent my evening here
The food was amazing and the service was very good. My only recommendation, is to get more air movers for the upper level. The sun on the second deck can be brutal. We loved the farm to table food and it was amazingly prepared. The steak special was, hands down, the best I had on the island.

First food and drink experience in Hawaii. We saw a couple talk about how great this restaurant is in a YouTube video and specifically about their Happy Hour. We landed in Oahu (first time for us) and drove straight to Monkeypod Kitchen as it is located right across the street from Disney’s Aulani Resort where we are staying. We each ordered the Mai Tai (2 x $13 happy hour price)as we had not had one before, and we shared a flight of beer ($18 happy hour price) . We chose three beers and let the bartender choose the 4th one. For food, we ordered a Kayla Pork & Pineapple Pizza ($22) and Poke Tacos ($24).
The pizza was good…if you enjoy pork, this had a nicely flavored pork. The pesto sauce was very mild and we did not have jalapenos on the pizza as it usually is served. This was a good pizza although, I would have enjoyed stronger flavors. I would still order this again.
The Poke Tacos were really good.
Our bartender was Chandel and she was pretty awesome. In the beer flight, she chose our 4th one which was called Honolulu Brew Works Kewalo’s Cream Ale which was the best of the four on our beer flight and really really good. In fact we left the restaurant and bought some in cans to take back to our room at the resort to enjoy throughout the week.
