    Orzo was phenomenal
    Amber G.

    We went to the pasta and wine pairing monthly event and overall we were less than impressed. The only redeeming feature was the waitstaff was great. The waitstaff made me want to return. We did the 530 seating. We were directly in the sun the entire time until we asked to move. I was literally melting in to the leather cushion seat. The wines were very small pours, maybe equalling a small glass between all five pours for $49. It was not worth the price but the choices were very well paired. If we went again we would order by the glass, like the lady next to us. The prices per glass were not bad and the sparkling Pinot noir we had was lovely and only $18. The food was just ok, except the orzo. I wish that dish was on the menu. It was stellar. I looked forward to the carbonara but it was chewy and fishy. The price of $79 was not bad for the five courses. The timing of the pours versus the food was off for such small pours. By the time you got food, the wine was either gone or hot from being directly in the sun.

    Food was great. Service was terrible. Did not once refill my glass of water. Many times we had to wave down someone to help us. After dinner we were planning to get desserts, after getting a dessert menu, 20 minutes passed by and still no one helped. Finally just asked for the check. The manager whom was very lazy. Never once tried to help out being the servers said they were so busy. Would not recommend and will not return.

    Late review (visited in December 2025) my love took me here on a surprise date night + an early birthday celebration for him. Came for dinner and we enjoyed the night view. Excellent service, excellent staff. The food was so good we said we'd come back from the mainland just to eat here again. All of the cocktails we had were delicious, perfectly balanced. Good plate portions, shareable, but enough to enjoy on your own too.

    Celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary!

    Sweet, indeed! Last night we celebrated our 27th Anniversary at this beautiful outdoor dining for the FIRST time in the Ritz-Carlton in Waikiki. The staff were friendly and incredibly accommodating especially our hostess, server Chris and manager Preston. With open sky you can enjoy the Waikiki scenery and Friday fireworks. The menu was short but spot on taste and creativity especially with my uni pasta which included crab. Chris made special accommodations with my cuisine since Im allergic to crab which I am grateful. Loved that my pasta was Al dente and the creamy sauce was just right- smooth and flavorful and the uni added that special touch- "onolicisious", indeed! It was hard to save some for our youngest son to try later. My hubby had the short rib with lentils and veggies. It was so tender and full of incredible flavors that I had eaten 1/3 of his plate (yes, it was that "ono" (delicious)! Since we don't drink (much), we didn't have a cocktail/mocktail so this round we just chilled and enjoyed the view and food. They do have a full menu of incredible spirits so this a great place for cocktail hour with sunsets, beautiful skies and cool nights under the stars. Price point is expected since it is located in the Ritz-Carlton but not super crazy like other places I've been. It's a casual yet stylish (so no come with your bikinis, slippahs and t-shirt). Dress upscale casual and you will have an incredible and joyful time. By the way, check out their sister restaurant on the same floor for a more hearty meal and incredible dessert. Manager Preston escorted us there to ensure we got a sweet table to sample their yummy- Hashi-gori....you won't be disappointed! Bon Appetito!

    Stunning views because the design of the patio / building construction is superb and gives you an unobstructed skyline/beach cityscape. The way they built the patio is like an infinity pool where you are seated at the "edge" of the patio in the front section furthest away from the hotel. Food was very good and service was great, very on par with the Ritz Carlton experience. Would def come back to eat here if I come back to Waikiki. b

    Not at the bar...but a view from the Ritz.

    The house old fashioned and buratta pupu were the perfect pau hana treat! A beautiful sunset view sitting at a high top table, great conversation, and the old fashioned here is really quite good. While the sun goes down, you are sitting directly in it, so be prepared. It is nice and quiet up at this outdoor area, Quiora is situated outdoors very nicely at the Ritz Waikiki over looking rooftops and the ocean in the distance. Dressy casual. Great service. Small but great menu options for pau hana. A couple of nice wine options but my friend and I both chose a cocktail. The buratta with arugula had a really nice, light dressing and was very delicious and refreshing. I was having such a nice time, other than our selfies, I forgot to snap photos of the food and bevvies, and only have one other to share .

    Absolutely, amazing wonderful, cocktails, wonderful sunset wonderful food, wine, etc. definitely definitely amazing. Plus, they validate and not charge for parking.

    Never seen a $6 prep martini extra charge before?
    Tarah M.

    My husband and I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton for my 40th birthday and hosted a dinner for ten friends at Quiora. To start with the positives: our server, Kennedy, was wonderful. He was warm, attentive, and offered great recommendations for the table. We especially enjoyed the arancini, ahi dip, uni pasta, and horchata trifle. Those were standouts. A few friends who ordered the pappardelle felt it could have used more seasoning, but overall the food was solid. However, there were several aspects that were frustrating. I don't mind paying higher prices at a luxury property, but I was surprised by the extra fees that appeared on our bill. For example, there was a $6 "martini upcharge" added to each $16 martini. Since we ordered several, it would have been helpful to be informed of this beforehand. We were also charged $6 each for sides of sauce and Parmesan cheese, which felt excessive. Ultimately, the total came out to over $150 per person, and the value didn't match that price point. We also encountered issues prior to our reservation. We originally booked for nine guests and asked to add one more when a friend flew in to surprise me. The restaurant told us that increasing the party size meant we would need to submit everyone's orders in advance. I didn't want to ask my guests to do that, especially for just one additional person. The back-and-forth over this became more frustrating than it needed to be, and honestly made me regret choosing the restaurant. Had I not put down a deposit I would have tried to change the venue at this point. When we arrived, the staff still seemed flustered that our party size had changed, which didn't create a welcoming atmosphere. For the level of pricing and the setting, I expected a more accommodating and seamless experience.

    I enjoyed more of the appetizers and the view. The entrees were just okay but definitely will come back for the view, appetizers and drinks.

    Came here twice for the lunch service, both times were excellent. It appears that there aren't a lot of people that died here for lunch, but that's what attracts me to this place. You can have a really relaxing meal with friends and not feel like you have to hurry up and eat and leave. We actually spent almost 3 hours here and the waiter didn't seem to mind the smoked ahi dip was a great way to start our mail. The pasta are house made and delicious. Valet parking is complementary for four hours.

    The server didn't really know the menu, so I was taken aback. It's not a big deal to me, but if you're gonna explain the menu - you should know what you're explaining. Otherwise, the view was beautiful. The restaurant is located next to the lovely pool. The food was delicious. I wish the menu was a little bigger. I think their drinks are pre-made because I wasn't able to make changes to them. I was also expecting a special dessert for my spouse, specifically for birthdays due to all of the reviews about tiramisu and anniversary desserts. They ended up getting us a gelato, but I'm not sure it was a "birthday" special. I guess it depends on when you come.

    POLENTA... LOOOOOOOVED IT
    Akemi O.

    Staycay for the weekend in Waiks. Early 4th of July dinner...had to go early for baby and so we could get back to watch the Hilton fireworks. I feel like there was a improvement on food...or maybe we just ordered better this time. - Uni Crab Arancini ball thingy - YUM. Baby stole my uni. - Caprese - nice and different. Probably the best mozzarella stick I've ever had. Coating was light and the cheese was delish. I didn't like the sauce though. To me that made it way too mozzarella stick-ish rather than caprese-ish. - Oxtail - hubs got this. Was yummy. He liked it. Surprised he didn't finish. Was pretty big, plus we had drinks and pupu. - Pork chop - I was back and forth on what I wanted so asked the Waiter. His eyes lit up and he completely sold me on the dish. And you know what...he was right. It was sooooo goooood. That polenta...OH.MY.GOD. YUM. Luckily I got to eat it for 2 more meals. - Brussels - probably the bet Brussels I've had. Most places it's oily and sitting in sauce. This one had choke taste, was crispy but not at all oily. Air fried? Whatevers...it was delish. I totes forgot my heels when we walked over. So my nice dress and rubbah slippahs. But no worries, since even if it's fancy, it's also not fancy. I didn't feel too out of place.

    Vino Rosso Short Rib
    Jamille P.

    Went to Quiora for my birthday dinner in the evening. The hostess greeted me by name because we made a reservation. That surprised me and I enjoyed the effort put into knowing your guest. The waiter unfortunately did not check in with us as often as we would have liked. Waited for a bit to ask for our check. The location was really nice you have a great view of the Waikiki skyline. The outdoor seating area was well maintained and inviting. The lighting could be a little better at the table as my wife and I had a hard time reading the menus. We ordered the braised short rib and the 22oz bone in ribeye. The braised short rib was good and tender but could use a little more seasoning. The ribeye was cooked to my desired temperature and once again could use some more seasoning. The sides specifically the Mac and cheese were delicious. The Mac and cheese should be its own item on the menu. Pricing was solid for what we ordered. Sadly the food took quite a while to get to us and the wife was getting a little frustrated by the time it came out. Overall a good experience with some minor hiccups.

    Any gluten free options and fixed menu for dinner?

    Is there self parking?

    Believe parking is valet only. There was a ticket for a 4hr validation at the restaurant.

    Is the business lunch pre-fixe menu available daily or only on weekdays?

    Business lunch is $25 Pre-fixed but you can still order from their regular menu. I can't confirm if they have it during the weekends. Since it's called business meeting lunch I would think it's for the weekdays only.

    Do you offer gluten free pasta?

Special shout out to Scotty for taking care of us tonight. Excited to come back again :)

To my surprise, on a Sunday evening after having dinner nearby at Maze, my wife and I walked over to Bar Leather Apron and we were able to get seated right away! In fact, around 7:30 p.m. when we stopped by, there was actually a ton of seating available in the bar. Who would've guessed. If you're in the same boat as me and are unable to find a reservation for your upcoming visit, I would encourage you to stop by and try a walk-in. The first page of the menu lists a wide variety of whiskey based cocktails. Most -- if not all, of the cocktails are pre-fixed with BLA (Bar Leather Apron), and represent a collaboration with the named distillery. If you're fan of whiskey, you'll definitely have a difficult time picking only one. I ultimately ordered their "Take Warning" -- 2021 BLA Knob Creek BLA Single Barrel, Cynar, Carpano Antica, Mezcal, Bergamot Salt. Drinks here are not cheap -- averaging $20 to $25 per drink. Although my drink was very spirit forward, it still felt very well balanced. I appreciated the hint of smokiness from the mezcal that rounded out the end of a sip. Service here quick and friendly. When we received the check, a cute small chocolate snack was brought over as well, borrowed from the menu at Maze. Overall, I can see why Bar Leather Apron has earned so many accolades in its field. Definitely worth a stop by if you enjoy the art of mixology.

Tucked on the second floor of a Piikoi Parkway building, it feels like stepping back in time, a true bespoke bar with vintage art, moody lighting, and comfy couches that make it perfect for couples or a night out with friends. We sat at the bar, which was a highlight, Michael and Tony were welcoming, easy to talk story with, and clearly know their craft. I went with the Barreled Old Man, a smooth, layered mix of bourbon, rye, and brandy that just worked, while my wife's Sesame Veil brought a nutty, balanced flavor that stood out. For round two, the Espressing My Love was a great take on an espresso martini, and Michael built my wife a custom drink off her favorite flavors and nailed it again. We paired it with the smoked mozzarella and salami grilled cheese and Ho Farms tomato soup, and this is where it really hit. The sandwich came out hot and crisp, and when you took a bite the cheese pulled away just right, that perfect melt, with the salami adding a savory kick. The tomato soup was fresh, bright, and made for dipping you didn't want to stop. We were welcomed with a table that had our name on it, a small touch that goes a long way.

This isn't a bar you stumble into, it's one you come back to.
