    Complimentary sides: fried plantains, mashed potatoes, cheese bread are good. Lobster bisque, don't love
    Thy V.

    Unfortunately will not come back, unless necessary :( Overall, I had a good experience and the staff was more than helpful and friendly, but the food wasn't up to my standards. + Food: Some of the meat was delicious, like the lamb chop, bacon wrapped sirloin. Everything else was just okay. The sides were hit or miss. Love the cheese bread, chimichurri, fries, mushroom, potatoes were good, lobster bisque was not great. Desserts were delicious. My issue was everything was extremely oily or creamy, so overall the meat was undermined. I wish there were lighter options like light soups, pickled veggies (with no oil), which would bring out the meat quality more. We weren't full by the end, just didn't feel great. + Service: Great service! Very friendly and attentive staff. Received a free birthday ice cream. + Ambience: Big restaurant with plenty of seats but you can make a reservation on Open Table. Closest parking by Macy's. The restaurant is on the top floor.

    You come for the AYCE. Typical tactics. Fill up on bread and salad. When the food comes...they bring out the cheap stuff. The meats that you come for were pretty scarce and we had to "request" it. I was starting to get a little irritated when I kept seeing our "meat" person walking by. Also I ordered a highball...but pretty sure I got a tequila on rocks. On a positive note the best thing I had here was the chocolate cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Nothing like cake and ice cream to make everything better. The Vegas location is better.

    Reservations were made months in advance for Valentine's Day dinner with my husband, so we were definitely looking forward to a smooth, romantic evening. When we arrived, we were told they were running about 20-25 minutes behind on reservations and were asked to wait outside. It was very crowded, with lots of couples waiting around, which made it feel a bit chaotic right from the start. When our name was finally called, it was hard to hear, and the hostess didn't linger to see if anyone responded. I thought I heard my name and sent my husband inside to check -- sure enough, they had called us. They did apologize and explained they were having trouble getting tables cleared and reset quickly enough due to delays with bussing. Totally understandable on a busy holiday, but it added to the initial stress. Once seated, things improved. Our waitress, Kelly, was genuinely kind and attentive. We weren't initially given a drink menu, but when we asked, she seemed surprised and quickly corrected it. She explained the dining process clearly and sent us off to the salad area. The salad bar is where this place really shines. It's far beyond your standard greens-and-dressing setup. There were grilled asparagus, green beans, balsamic tomatoes, specialty cheeses, and even a cinnamon pineapple dish that was surprisingly delicious. I'd heard the lobster bisque was a must-try, so I grabbed a bowl. The flavor was good, but it wasn't very hot, which took away from the overall experience. The meat service was plentiful and nonstop. As soon as we finished one selection, another gaucho would appear with something different. It felt like you never got the same cut twice, and there was always something new to try. If you're going for the full churrascaria experience, they definitely deliver on variety and abundance. Dessert, however, felt like another waiting game. When we said yes to seeing the dessert options, it took quite a while for the tray to arrive. Kelly came back multiple times to apologize, explaining that the dessert station was backed up. Once she finally presented the tray (probably about 10 minutes later), she thoroughly explained each option. I chose the banana foster pie. It took another 10 minutes to arrive. Again, apologies were offered -- and appreciated -- but by then the momentum of the evening had dipped. The dessert was good, but not something I'd rush back specifically for. Overall, Texas de Brazil at Ala Moana delivered on food quality and selection, especially at the salad bar and with the continuous meat service. Service from our waitress was warm and professional despite clear back-of-house bottlenecks. The holiday crowd and delays took away from the romantic flow of the evening, but the core dining experience was solid. Was definitely great for a date night. I wouldn't go far enough to say it was a special occasion type place. Would I return? Yes -- just maybe not on Valentine's Day.

    Senior dining discount 20%. Attention carnivores. When they opened at 5:00 p.m., we went for dinner. Assuming it was the manager, he invited us in, even tho only a third of my party was there, and asked if we would like to wait outside or be seated. We had reservations for 12 people. While waiting we were served drinks and small like cheese biscuits. Whe we started eating, they served, to the table, delicious garlic mashed potatoes and a killer prepared bananas. Other things like soups, sauteed mushrooms and starches (rice and scallops potatoes) were self-service at another counter. First impression: Very nice ambiance. A super large salad bar, but we weren't there for the salad. Waitresses and waiters come around in Brazilian uniforms with many meat entrees to choose from. They try to keep the meats hot when they carry them around for service. Pros: 1) Seniors get a 20% discount. 2) Large salad bar. 3) We had an attentive waiter. 4) Entrees were kept at a good temperature and not cold since they are carried around to serve. Cons: 1) They don't accept online gift certificates. 2) A bit pricey, but the senior discount helps. 3) Dessert is not included. Would I go back? Yes, even with the price of dinner. I would like to thank them for thinking about seniors. There is a good selection of entrees. WARNING: IT'S NOT WHAT THE LOCALS ARE USED TO. But it is well prepared. Remember, my fellow YELPERS... IT'S BRAZILIAN ALSO NOTE: They do have a salad bar only and kids price. Jasmine, if you read this, you have a killer banana condiment. You should think of serving it with some ice cream as a dessert. I think it would be a winner.

    Texas de Brazil at Ala Moana delivers a really solid churrascaria experience, especially if you're there for the meats. The service was attentive and friendly, and the gauchos kept the skewers coming with a great variety of well-seasoned, perfectly cooked cuts. The meats were definitely the highlight -- juicy, flavorful, and consistently cooked just right. It's a great spot for a special occasion or when you're in the mood to indulge and leave very full. The vibe of the restaurant is nice. That said, the reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is the salad bar area. While everything was fresh and nicely presented, the selection of sides felt limited compared to other Texas de Brazil locations. I was hoping for a bit more variety beyond the basics to balance out the heavy meat courses. Overall, it's still a great dining experience with excellent service and high-quality food. If they expanded the sides and salad bar options, this would easily be a 5-star spot.

    My carnivore hubby's request for his birthday dinner proved to be as pleasing for me (his pescatarian wife) as it was for him. Texas de Brazil left us both smiling and satisfied. In my opinion, it's a better value than a traditional steakhouse. Hubby counted and he enjoyed seven different types/cuts of meat. And while the gauchos kept his plate full with generous slices of lamb, beef, and pork, I kept my plate full with the salad bar options. My dinner cost was less than the hubby's because I didn't partake in the skewered and grilled meats. But I certainly got my money's worth! I was more than satisfied with the salad bar options and especially enjoyed the hot dishes like lobster bisque, fish, and black beans. They also bring sides of fries, potatoes, and plantains at the start of the meal. It's an incredible deal for the amount and quality of food you get to devour. I'm not really an AYCE fan but it this place elevates the idea of buffet dining. The gauchos were fun and personable. The hostess and server were pleasant and professional. And the manager visited our table a few times to chat. It was a warm and welcoming experience in a spacious, bright, and classy restaurant. At the end of the meal, hubby was served complimentary ice cream in honor of his special day, which was a really sweet touch. Great place for a date night, celebration, or family dinner. Some guests were dressed up and others were casual. It's a come as you are and leave more full than when you arrived type of restaurant. Lots of parking since it's in Ala Moana shopping center. And you can walk off the calories window shopping after your meal. If you're a meat eater, you'll love this place. And if you don't eat meat, you'll love it too. We definitely did!

    This was our second time eating here and my first commen,t is that the service was way better than our 1st experience. Our waiter was very kind and attentive to our table, even after it got busy. He also did his best to get our favorites to the table. I'm not much of a beef eater and it seems as though the mostly cater to beef eaters. You can request items, but each time we did we had to wait a good amount time my husband requested the picanha multiple times after seeing it come out and never making it to our table, it didn't make it until we were ready to leave. Definitely a different experience from eating at Brazilian steakhouse's elsewhere, specifically Texas. I do want to be fair, my 3 star review is not because the place is terrible. It is due to the lack of meat rotation. The staff serving the meat at our table could've also had a bit more personality, or at least a smile! Honestly, the salad bar is a meal in itself.

    My friend wanted to try this place out. It was his first time there. We went on a Tuesday for the kamaaina deal. I recommend to make reservations since it does get packed after 6:00pm. The meats were delicious. It was fresh and hot. I do prefer the cook on my meat to be medium to medium well and they were nice to accommodate that. My favorites were the picanha, beef ribs, and bbq pork ribs. They were very tender with the right amount of fat. It was also juicy and not at all dry. The salad bar was very clean. I see one of the staff wipe down the counter often. Great selections for salad and toppings. There were also sauces that pair well with the meats. I also do like their hot bar selections. The lobster bisque was very flavorful. The fish, mushroom, and gratin potatoes were delicious sides. They also provided the usual cheese bread, mashed potatoes, cinnamon bananas, and fries. They were all great. We love the cheese bread and mashed potatoes. They go so well with the lobster bisque. The cinnamon bananas were very good. They weren't too sweet and were a nice dessert-like side. Overall, I've been here a few times and service always been great. The servers were always attentive and friendly. The gauchos were hardworking and they explain each meat they are serving. There are times when some would missed our table but we were able to request for a certain meat and they would bring it out to us. Great seasoning and cook on the meat, delicious salad and hot bar, good sides and services. Will definitely continue to return again.

    Complementary birthday dessert! And they sing.

    If you order just the salad bar, does it include the hot food bar?

    I think so...the server we had referred to that entire area as the salad bar. Honestly it's extensive and you could have a meal from just the salad bar and leave satisfied.

    Is this place children friendly environment?

    They absolutely are. They have two extra areas, one is even more private, that are great for big families parties too. And for the kids they offer a special price: 2 years and under are complimentary, 3-5 years are $5.00 and 6-12 years are half… Read more

I also appreciated the nice assortment of desserts to finish off the experience, and our waiter John gave us a free dessert for my parents 33rd wedding anniversary (which happened to be that day also). The brisket also had good flavor but was a touch overcooked compared to what I was hoping for. It was not bad by any means, just a little more dry than usual. The main reason this is a 4 star review instead of 5 stars was the organization of the buffet lines and overall unorganized stations. During our visit, it was not always clear where the line was supposed to start, (as both ends of the line were easily accessible) what direction people were supposed to go, or whether certain stations had separate lines. At times it felt like everyone was kind of piled around the same areas, which made the experience feel more chaotic than it needed to be, especially for a holiday buffet. That said, the food selection was strong, the setting was nice, and it still felt like a good place to celebrate Father's Day.

The prices are a little on the high side but you get what you pay for. This place is a go to for us every time we're on the island.

    This is at the Kahala Hotel and resort, lots to see; the property is beautiful. We had a beautiful…read moreocean front table and ring side seat to a wedding. The service was impeccable. The food, not so much. We were there for breakfast but did not opt for the buffet. At this price point I was disappointed. The coffee tasted like dishwater. The guava juice was delightful. I had The Continental; the variety of pastries consisted of 3 chocolate; a chocolate muffin, a chocolate chip muffin, a chocolate croissant; a plain croissant and a pecan cinnamon roll, so sweet on sweet. All tasty but not much variation. The fresh fruit was excellent, the pineapple was not cored. Hubby had the avocado toast; it was just okay. The fish was plain and small portion. I am sure we will visit the Hotel again but maybe give the poolside bar a try. The setting is idyllic.

    I have supported Hawaii99 Takeout Express tons of times, dine in, take out, family gathering for…read moreBirthdays, half of the visits were great but let's me share about my most recent visit. I see the new huge poster out front, every time I stop at the bakery next door, the family meal with 6 items sounds great, reasonable. I decided to make it easy for me with few stops to grab this for Super Bowl Sunday. I called that morning to place my order. There are no photos of the family set on Yelp so Your welcome, if you decide to order this set, Please think twice, it sounds like a great deal but not. I/my family was very disappointed. I picked the 6 items, now keep in mind it says "Family Meal Deal" when you get your items, family - ? don't think it will be enough to feed your family depending on how many is in your family. I got the 6 items for $55.95 and paid $8. for Chow fun. The 6 item choice I picked were : fish filet ( got the wrong order) roast duck, string beans, ginger chicken, sweet sour pork, and chicken wings. What a surprise when I opened up the bag to set up for our Super Bowl spread, they were cute little take out containers like the kind you would use for leftovers at the Chinese restaurant. They weren't even filled to the top. It was little like sample dishes. Wow. also the food did not taste fresh, all the food I got tasted like they were reheated, except for the chicken wings. The chow fun was a regular portion but it was on the oily side. I hope Hawaii99 Take Out Express takes down the huge poster in front, its very misleading and false advertisement. I have another review to write regarding my family dinners, this will be continued- will update. I just want to get this out there in case you want to get the family meal deal. Its really a joke! Luckily we had other foods at the Super Bowl gathering and also ordered pizza last minute. Sorry family, I am pretty much mad at myself, I outsmarted myself again. ** see my photo of what they call a "family meal deal" in tips**

    Located in the same parking lot of Times Beretania they are right across the main entrance of…read moreTimes. The Dry Beef Chow Fun was very good and tasty and the noodles were on the thicker side not really thin like some other places, the beef was tender and good size slices. The portion size of the dish could feed 3 maybe 4. The cold Ginger Chicken was also very good and tasty and the flavor was really good and it wasn't overly salty. The Spring beans were cooked just right not over cooked and the flavor was different, but very good and the pork was sliced and the taste was really good. You can bring in your own BYOB! The restroom are outside of the restaurant and shared by all the business there, sadly in the men's restroom looked like a person was living there with some clothes and a dog bed and a packages of personal belongings scattered all over the bathroom floor. They said the tell the management and custodians, but somehow cannot keep who ever is living in there even with a key system they have to use the restroom. Overall the food is great!

    Such a fun place and the staff was AMAZING! When i told them we were here to celebrate a wedding…read moreanniversary, they jumped into action. I wanted to make sure there was no fight over the bill, so they took my card at the front desk and made sure our waitress understood the task. There was happy hour at the bar, so we started there and the bartender was so fun and friendly. The drinks were so yummy too. Ambience was stellar as they sat us outside with a view of sunset. All the dishes were were perfectly done. We had fish, prime rib, chicken, appetizers, all were so good. The $80 prime rib might seem steep but it was the most popular dish at the table. That anniversary meal was perfect. Highly recommend and so worth it. Will be back!

    My family loves this place, has for a LONG time. Came for…read moreFather's Day, we put our name down and they gave an eta of 1hr 45min. Left and came back around 30-40 min later. Checked and they said another 1hr 45min. Then added another 30 min, then another. Total time waited was about 2 hrs 30min. Understandable that it's so busy especially on holidays, but to not have a decently accurate ETA wasn't looking too good. Finally got sat, and the wine cups and silverware were dirty... Food did time some time to come, but again, it's a holiday so to be expected. Server was kind and accommodating, really nice woman. Prime rib was HUGE, but the bone was also a decent chunk of it, not too bad though. New York steak was very dry. Ordered one medium and one half of the steak was medium well-well done, the other side was cooked to med-rare but somehow the whole steak was VERY dry. Would not recommend. The other New York steak was cooked fine. Caesar salad did have some pieces of old/dirty lettuce, but a good size for a big family. The ribs were decent, sweet. Parking is a toss up, gotta get there early or get lucky. Else it's street parking.

    Had a lunch meeting here today & got to try this place for the first time!…read moreI appreciate their lunch menu, AYCE for $27. The menu is pretty simple but I like that they offer seaweed soup & japchae. They meat was okay, the bbq beef and brisket being my favorite. Dessert was also included! They offer oranges, jell-o & nostalgic strawberry samurai!! Service was good, they came around kind of often to take our order or see if we needed anything else. Place was just your old school restaurant, nothing too fancy but felt comfortable and casual. Definitely will be coming back.

    I had a very short overnight in HNL so my cousin took me here for an AYCE Korean BBQ with the rest…read moreof the relatives. It was located in a strip mall and we quickly found a spot right in front. Inside was not very crowded for a Sunday dinner and we joined the others at our tables. Decor was functional but very convenient to have two grills going. The variety of banchan on the table was a lot including the amount in each dish. Also 3 sauces included but more variety can be ordered. AYCE included all the meats and shrimp listed, a variety of vegetables, and ready to eat options like mandoo, japchae and kim chee stew. Drinks were also all you can drink but separately priced. Staff were always quick fill our requests, clear used plates and replace grills. I tried the kalbi, brisket, pork belly and spicy chicken and appreciated the good cuts of meat, not too fatty but very tasty. We wrapped up with bowls of soft serve ice cream brought to our table and the strawberry color was not quite what I expected but smooth and sweet. There was a 2 hour time limit but we had no problem eating our fill before then. 18% gratuity automatically added to our bill but they worked for it. I'd come back again for sure.
