Dog friendly and multiple outside tables with umbrella coverage. Great spot to people watch and enjoy a pint of local beer! Cons: The service was a bit unorganized and the food was not as good as the main waikiki brewing company. We upgraded the fries to garlic parmesean and didnt expect they would put mayo on it and sprinkle garlic on it. I was a little disappointed. The burger we had also wasnt that good for the price. Overall it was good but could be improved.

There's a small shaded seating area provided by the restaurant, but we walked along the beach to take photos while we waited. Location: Great, right next to the beach, great view of the water, lots of things to do in the area on Waikiki strip. Parking: Pretty easy as it's near the end of Waikiki so you can park around Kapiolani Park or Waikiki Shell and walk over! Ambiance: Casual, laid back, open air, shaded. One downfall was that since it's open air, lots of pigeons beneath the tables scavenging for food, but they weren't aggressive and didn't bother us while we ate. Although there was bird poop on our table, our waitress promptly brought cleaning supplies to spray down the table and wipe it clean. Service: Great! Fast service, friendly, food came out quickly. Drinks: Iced matcha latte was fine, could've been sweeter, but perfectly fine. Tall glass. Food: Great! We came because I kept hearing everyone say it's one of the best loco mocos on island, so we had to try it! Turned out to be a super solid loco moco: patty was flavorful and moist on the inside, sauce tasted almost like omurice gravy, great sauce to rice ratio. The berry pancakes were surprisingly great too! Moist pancakes, fluffy, good char, lots of fresh fruit. Overall the food was great! Price: Not bad, the loco moco was $24, the matcha latte was $7, AND THEY DO KAMA AINA DISCOUNT (5% off)! Always ask for kama aina discount when you're in Waikiki--you never know! Overall: Great! For locals might be more out of the way cuz of fighting through Waikiki traffic and finding street parking, but wasn't bad at all on a Saturday morning. Food was good, vibe was chill, views were so pretty. Good trade wind breeze through the restaurant. Staff was super friendly. Would definitely come again!

The buffet includes cold cereal bar, yogurt, fruits, salad, pastries. It also has regular breakfast fare, such as scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, waffle, hamburger steak, eggs Benedict, an omelette station, miso soup and white rice. Coffee, guava and orange juice included. If you have kids eating with you that can dine free, definitely recommend. Otherwise, I would stick to alacarte unless you're super hungry.

The loco moco was the standout for me--comfort food done right, hearty, flavorful, and exactly the kind of plate that hits the spot. What really made the experience even better was the fast and attentive service. Everyone was friendly, checked in at the right times, and kept things moving without making us feel hurried. The ambience is another big plus. It has that relaxed Waikiki feel--easygoing, comfortable, and a nice place to slow down and enjoy your meal. Sometimes you just want to sit back, eat a good plate, and enjoy the moment, and The Grove delivers that. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. Good food, ono loco moco, solid service, and a relaxing atmosphere--what more can you ask for?

Very disappointing experience today. A bird became caught by its foot in the string lights hanging…read moreabove the restaurant tables by the pool and was left hanging there struggling and causing a commotion. Multiple patrons asked restaurant employees several times to please help, but staff refused, saying they were too busy with their tables and would call someone else to come get the bird. It was horrible to watch an animal suffering while the staff showed so little urgency or concern. We understand birds may frequently be around an outdoor restaurant, but when you hang string lights in an open-air environment surrounded by nature, situations like this can happen. The bird obviously doesn't understand the danger. Regardless of the bird itself, the attitude and lack of compassion from the staff were enough for me. I will never return to this restaurant and would highly encourage others to avoid this location, even if you are staying at the hotel.

We always enjoy our visits--the food is delicious, the service is amazing, and the staff always treats us so well. The restaurant can get busy, but reservations are available through the OpenTable app, which makes planning ahead easy. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, along with a nice bar area. We have children, and they always enjoy their meals as well--especially our picky 7-year-old eater, which says a lot! It's wonderful finding a place where the whole family can enjoy a great dinner together. We're already looking forward to our next visit next year!

Ambiance: It is clean and very nice inside and it overlooks the lobby/driveway at the heart of the property. BREAKFAST ========== I took my two sons here for breakfast and it was a very satisfying and TASTY experience. Here is what we ordered: * Loco Moco: My younger son loves Loco Mocos and his was a nice size and it was tasty (he finished it); I had a bite and I agreed with him. * Two Eggs/Bacon: My older son got the basic breakfast - two eggs scrambled with bacon and toast and he thought it was good. * Veggie Omelette: I got the veggie omelette and it was delicious and I had it with the potatoes. I would recommend this for the veggie lovers and for those like me who don't like meat with their eggs. DINNER ======== The four of us went here for dinner on one of our last evenings and I have to say it was AWESOME Italian food. * Pasta Alfredo: My older son (who is a picky eater) got this and he enjoyed it. The portion was huge so he couldn't finish it. * Spaghetti and Meatballs: My younger son (who is NOT a picky eater) got this and loved it...but the portion was huge and couldn't finish it. * Caprese salad: My wife and I shared this and it was a good size to share. * Rigattoni Aranciatta: My wife and I shared this thankfully and we finished it between the two of us. Sorry no photos for dinner. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this spot for breakfast and/or dinner. My only comment that is negative is that for breakfast it is PRICEY!
