    Restaurant outside
    Lauren C.

    I recommend this place if you are staying in Ko Olina -- great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner (I've tried all 3). Most recently, I had the Hawaiian Banana Mac Nut pancakes: the fresh bananas & mac nuts were a great, unique combination that was subtly sweet. The Shrimp Longhi that I had for lunch was full of flavor, garlicky and savory. For dessert, I had the Starberry shortcake -- sweet, fluffy, light, and decadent! The outside patio is right in front of the Koi pond, with a lovely view of the water and hula area. Our servers during every meal were nice and friendly.

    First time here at the Ko Olina in 15 plus years still very beautiful. Though like myself starting to show it's age...This eatery is right on the water with beautiful views and music playing in the background. As far as the food fish n chips were ok at best, drinks took forever to get started with a basic water. It was obvious they are short staffed however the staff was definitely on Hawaiian time. Also the cost for two meals and approximately 6 drinks was $171. Is a bit pricey for pub food. Just saying!

    Mai tai and marg

    We walked over to Longboards (at the Marriott) from our condo next door. The bartender at our place said they make the best Mai Tais. I will say they were better than his! We also got the poke nachos which were good, the addition of fresh jalapeños would have made them great. This sits right on one of the four lagoons, so has a great view. Mariann was super friendly and attentive, we enjoyed her immensely.

    This casual resort restaurant sits ocean side and has offerings for all. It's perfect for poolside delivery or a bite throughout the day. For a poolside restaurant, the menu is abundant with something for everyone which makes this a well-rounded casual choice. The drinks are decent (of course, overpriced) and the food hits the spot. Service was attentive, friendly and efficient. Tip - choose this after a day at the pool and enjoy live music and the beautiful sunset views.

    Longboards in Ko Olina is the main restaurant my family and I go to when we visit Hawaii at the Marriott. Longboards is pretty generic, as the menu is mainly burgers, fish tacos, poke, fish and chips, fries, etc. They're not gourmet, but it's a good and basic place to grab food if you're staying at the hotel (or any nearby.) It's NOT one of those places where you should go out of your way and valet your car for it, but more just convenient for the area. The service is great as well, though! As most of the people working are happy to help and very nice. The ambiance is also fun, light, can be musical, and even pretty. Longboards is right on the beach and the Marriott has their own man-made part of the beach, which is one of the most gorgeous beaches to exist. It's one of the only options for restaurants for the hotels out here, meaning that you will most likely go here more than once depending on the length of your trip. The drinks are tasty, but a little bit on the pricier side, and the food, like the fish and chips, is crunchy and yummy, but has a good amount of oil and grease that come with it. Not perfect, but a solid choice that I would still recommend if you are staying in the area and want to try a few different dishes from them. Try the poke nachos and a drink next time!

    We were staying at the resort and had a credit for this restaurant so we gave them a try... The service was slow and our waiter really didn't check that much on us and the food was very disappointing! I highly doubt we would visit this place again but if we did, we would get something totally different to eat! But other than that, the location was beautiful and perfect while staying at the resort.

    The amazing sunset. It was free!

    Longboards at the Marriott in Oahu absolutely delivered an outstanding dining experience. The poke bowl was incredibly fresh and flavorful, and the tempura fish & chips were some of the best I've had--perfectly prepared with a generous portion size that truly impressed. Service was spot on from start to finish: friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Add in the beautiful beachside setting , and it's hard to imagine a better place to relax and enjoy a great meal in Ko Olina Oahu. This not a typical hotel restaurant, much better. I highly recommend Longboards if you're looking for delicious food, great service, and unbeatable island vibes!

    Longboards at Ko Olina

    We have a place in Ko Olina so we come to Longboards 8-10 times a year. Our go to items are the Mahi sandwich, Poke Bowl, and outstanding onion rings. I believe their Frozen Mai Tai is the best Mai on the island (better than Duke's or Monkeypod, IMHO). However what really makes this place is always seeing the best server anywhere, Marylou. You will be hard pressed to find a more friendly, kind server who exemplifies Aloha. Yes, it is a bit more expensive but you are on a resort and dining with a view. Coming at happy hour is a good value if that time works for you.

    Average...nothing really bad, nothing stellar. This is a bar and grill that's on the premises of the Marriott Vacation Club in Ko' Olina. Good location very close to the lagoon. Outdoor seating. Service was slow. They have the basics here. We got buffalo wings and salad. They were again average, I can't really complain. Typical bar/grill food. If you are at the Vacation Club or spending the day at the nearby beach and you're not looking for something homemade or special, this is your place!

    Famous tuna melt
    Michael A.

    Longboards is always my go to once I check in here at the Marriott Ko'Olina. The tuna melt is one of the best that I have ever had!! Especially when you're just relaxing poolside or on the lagoon in front of longboards! We also ordered the double smash burger with garlic truffle fries!! Service is very quick and they even bring it up to you poolside via the mobile order app. Which is only till 5pm I believe. We will be back again as we are here every year!

    Food and service are good, but we go for the sunset views. Menu is relatively limited but food quality is above typical beach or bar food. Views of the beach and sunset are gorgeous. Prices are a little high because it is a beach resort.

    Ron V.

    The food selection is good but overall it's pricey for what it is. But it does save you the trouble of leaving and driving somewhere else if you're staying at the resort. The service was slow and the food can take a bit longer depending on the time and day. The atmosphere is relaxed and right off from the beach and pool area so you don't have to go too far.

    Seafood special pasta
    Katie S.

    Everything here was 10/10. We went on Mother's Day with a party of 13 and they were able to accommodate us with a reasonable wait time! Our server was so funny & kind. The food was so delicious, we left no crumbs! The amazing view, live music and sunset time was so perfect.

    Do they currently offer a happy hour?

    Yes; every day, 3-5 pm and 8-9 pm; $3 off draft beer and tropical drinks.

    What is included on the breakfast buffet vs the continental breakfast?

    There are hot items on the buffet (e.g., eggs, bacon, breakfast potatoes, bagels, etc)

    If we are staying at the resort is this the best option to watch 1 of the NFL games on TV this Saturday? If not what or where would our best bet be? We would hate to miss the game (the game is on NFL Network)

    I would watch it from my beautiful room with a fabulous view.

    Is there parking?

    This is within the Marriott resort, so there is parking in the Mariott complex. There is also general parking in the Ko'Olina "compound" but those go very fast.

    When is happy hour?

    2 - 6 pm

    Can you order food and drinks and eat on the beach instead of the restaurant?

    Yes

    When do they close?

    9pm

    Good solid experience with nice food and nice ambiance and decent service…read more Caesar salad was good and fresh 9/10. Siamin was maybe my favorite dish, smokey the noodles extra al dente and the pork was flavorful 9.5/10. Pesto Gnocchi was pillowy and soft and the pesto sauce was light and flavorful and was one of the few vegetarian options. I would get again 8/10. Side of broccoli was spicy and zesty 9/10. Cocktails were also very nice way to start. It's a tradition to always hit the minkeypod when in hawaii and will continue. Don't forget the pies! Overall, definitely a touristy vibe but pretty good quality overall.

    Came here while staying at Aulani. We weren't too hungry yet and mainly got appetizers and drinks…read moreduring happy hour. Majority of the appetizers we got were good. - truffle fries..well...their truffle fries and cant really go wrong - taro dumplings (i forgot if thats what we got but they were good but not blown away either) - corn chowder was good - brisket pesto pizza? (Im overdue with the review so forgot what pizza it exactly was) but i remember this was good. It was in the happy hour menu is all i can remember. - wings but unsure about the goat cheese dip. I prefer plain ranch - the kids pasta was good. Well, one kiddo loved it while the other didn't. So it depends on preferences on this one. I will say i did taste it and it was meh... - another kiddo got the shoyu noodles and its plain. So if you got a simple palate plain jane child, they will like this one. For drinks, it depends on taste and preferences. I was bummed on this one. Mainly looking fwd to the drinks and it didn't satisfy my tastebuds. It was too twisted, fusion, modified etc. i prefer a mai tai a plain old fashioned mai tai without the fixings. The orange foam was too strong it overwhelmed the dark rum im used to and prefer. So i decided to try the ube rey instead which was much better but still not as much to my liking/preferences. Went back to Aulani a but bummed and decided to get another at Aulani the next day instead and I will say, i liked it better as it followed the more traditional way of making it. So if you prefer traditional ways, this may not be for you and if planning to drink, simply keep with the simplier generic drinks, wine or beer. If you prefer to try different ways and flavors, then you will love this. Service was great and our server was attentive at all times. Thank you. Ambiance was good but outdoor seating may be a bit of a nuance due to flies swarming around you often. The swinging table fan helps but are still annoying plus the tropical heat also didn't help.

We never had our waters filled throughout our entire meal. She never asked if we wanted dessert. Again, I don't think it was her I just think she needed help.

We had some Happy Hour Pizzas (you can get a personal pizza with 2 toppings for $10), and Happy Hour Burgers & Fries for $15. On the non-Happy Hour menu, I shared a Chicken Club Sandwich and this was a great decision. I really liked it. All in all, a pretty great, more casual option for dining in Ko'Olina. We'll be back.

Overall,…read morethe food was very nice plated and great flavors, but in my opinion every dish was slightly salty, not a deal breaker but certainly could be a little less heavy handed. I would come back again but hope everything would be a little bit more dialed in to make it 5/5 stars. Kambucha squash with miso caramel: great flavor and great texture but sauce was again very seasoned. 8/10 NY strip steak: perfectly cooked medium rare with nice crunchy bits on top and very tender. It was served with a few sauces that while indeed salty again, in this case it worked and the salt let the beef flavor shine. 9/10 would definitely come back again for this. KFC cauliflower: korean fried iteration of cauliflower it was spicy, sticky, crunchy, sweet and definitely was one of the table favorites. 9/10 Sunset roll: standard sushi roll with crab and fish on top. It was good and fresh. 8.5/10 Beef, pork, mushroom skewers: the pork belly was great and the sauce was tasty and not overly salty, my favorite of the three. The beef was decent but did not really compare to the steak we had so having them side by side made it kind of underwhelming. The mushrooms were good but kind of small for the price compared to the others. 7.5/10 Shoyu eggplant: eggplant was plump and tasty with a definite soy sauce taste. Kind of verged on the salty side but considering shoyu was in the name it definitely delivered on that front. 8/10 Shrimp toast: fried Japanese milk bread with shrimp and a tangy sauce and salad on top. Great crunch and flavorful shrimp but again the sauce was verging on overly salty. That said, we all did enjoy this dish and would order it again. 8.5/10 Fresh caught fish with crispy skin over rice with consumme: this dish was the only dish that was not overly salty and I thought was delicious, well balanced and had nice delicate flavors. My one nitpick was the skin did not come out crispy as advertised. 8/10 Scallops: Three scallops served over a cream sauce with rice cakes and salmon eggs. The scallops and sauce were the star and very tasty on its own, however, when eat with the ikura, again it followed the trend of overly salty so I kind of avoided it. The rice cakes were kind of just there and was surprisingly bland considering the aforementioned saltiness. Overall, while the scallops and sauce were nice, the dish was a little underwhelming for the high price and small amounts of scallops ($16 per scallop). 7/10 In summary, most dishes had high and lows, but with the great service and views this place still offers a lot of value, I just think it has some kinks to work out.

They were SO kind in having gluten free options (gluten free waffles, fruit, gluten free muffins). The gluten free food was delicious. We all loved our food and we really had a great time! Beautiful view and environment too! Dinner- This was absolutely the best dinner we had during our trip. It's a 3 course meal and you get to choose off of the menu.

The service is outstanding and we are so happy and blessed to be here! We were able to greet Mickey & Minnie, Goofy and Stitch at breakfast! We enjoyed macadamia nut pancakes with sweet syrup sauce; Mickey waffles and bacon; a farmer's omelet and potatoes - we had huge portions and the price for 4 (2 kids and 2 adults) was really good for all the food, the live music and the character visits over and over to our table! I also note that we didn't not attend the Luau this trip - which costs $200-$300+ per person (at Aulani). We opted to skip because we've been before and figured we would wait some before taking the kids - a little bit older for the best age to really fully enjoy that aspect of the show. You can get all the pictures with your personal camera/phone/device but know that the character breakfast photos by the photo folks with Mickey are not included - they will offer a $45 photo package to include and featured photo in the cardboard decorated photo frame and a photo pass card representing all the photos taken with Mickey as a family and as individuals at the featured photo session with Mickey during the (breakfast) character meal experience. We made our appointment for the first of the day and joined breakfast at 7am. We were first in line and first for the day - we enjoyed that personally because it was a great time with no crowds and we were able to start the day early and get on to having (more) fun!

It wasn't busy at all but there was only one waiter/bartender. He was very kind and efficient, but I could tell it was a lot for one person to wait on the whole restaurant! It meant ordering was a little slow, but understandably. The food itself was delicious! The burgers were amazing, honestly would be on a list of top five burgers on the island. The mauka to makai (half kalua pig, half poke) nachos were amazing. The won ton chips were to die for. We also grabbed a mini purse drink - which is definitely enough for two to share! Such a fun concept and actually how I heard of the place. Besides the slightly slow service, no elevator (which sometimes, cannot help), and the AI generated menus, this place is amazing! Plus, a nice view while you eat.

    Outstanding Food, Vibes, and Live Music!…read more ​Had an amazing dinner experience at Mahi'ai Table last night with two friends! We specifically came out to support our friend who was the musical talent providing the live entertainment from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. ​Our reservation was at 5:30 PM, and the vibe was so good that we stayed all the way until 9:00 PM. Because we arrived during the last 30 minutes of happy hour, we immediately ordered a major spread of pupus from the Pau Hana menu. We shared the lechon style brussel sprouts, hand-cut fries, steamed shrimp & pork won tons, scallion bread, and fish tacos. Every single bite was delicious. I paired the food with a Hana Koa Roof Top Pale Ale from their local drafts list, which was crisp and excellent. ​After happy hour wrapped up, I moved on to the dinner menu and ordered the Half Pound House Burger and fries for my entree. The burger was perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. ​Overall, the food and ambiance were absolutely outstanding, and the service was prompt, attentive, and friendly from start to finish. The noise level was perfectly moderate, letting us enjoy both the live music and our own conversation. We had a great time and will absolutely be back!

    Underrated local dinner spot…read more The entry to this restaurant is so easy to miss because it's so narrow and it blends in so well with everything. I don't know if they want to keep it hidden, but I guess you could consider it that. We went in on a Saturday night with reservations and I highly recommend it since the place was full when we went in and more people kept wanting to come and eat. Service was great from beginning to end, I especially love that everyone accommodated my stroller and my baby. There were four of us and we each got something different, but to start I highly suggest the steamed shrimp and pork wontons and the lechon style Brussels - I would've double-ordered those for my entree if I could have! For entrees we ordered the garlic noodles, misoyaki butterfish, seared catch-of-the-day, and the burger. They were all amazing, and after we all started letting each other try we started making our own "flights" because everything just hit different spots and flavor profiles. In summary, this is one of those places that doesn't care about aesthetics, the decor is casual, but the food is soooo ono. They focus all their energy on food and service, and that makes a winner winner chicken dinner in my book.
