Reviews for Kani Ka Pila Grille in Honolulu, HI
The Hawaiian music was hands down the best part. The band was so friendly and there were hotel guests getting up and dancing... hula while the band played. The food was great too! The quesadilla and cheese bread were fantastically delicious and thecoconut shrimp was great too! We were a group of 10 so the service took a while which is to be expected but we were hardlychecked in on and had to ask for more water, drinks, and napkins a few times. But very reasonably priced compared to some of theother restaurants in the area Read more
Came here on Saturday and sat at the bar. The service was great! I had the ahi and avocado poke (as a bowl), my husband had some... kind of fish sandwich. Both dishes were very good! I don’t know what they put in their fries, but I almost ordered anotherside of them - they really hit the spot. Their mixed drinks are a little pricey (but on par with other places in Waikiki) butdelicious. Overall, I definitely recommend this place! Read more
Food is pretty good and they have live music every night, which makes the atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant much better. The... restaurant is at the poolside, but once the pool closes after sunset, it's more quiet and focused on the food and entertainmentof the night. The musicians were fantastic - make sure to give them a round of applause for appreciation! Their chicken portionwas larger than expected. We also came here for breakfast before heading to the airport. The pancakes are really big andfilling. They have cream cheese inside of the pancakes, so if you're not into that make sure you let them know or choose anothermeal. The avocado toast was good. The sausages are tasty. We had free coupons to use, which was really nice for our last day inHonolulu! Read more
Food and drinks at this place is amazing. Great outdoor vibe by the pool. The service is fast and everyone is so friendly.
Absolutely loved the food here. DAMN. Beyond burger was on point, salad was delicious with some swordfish on top. The best of... the best was the pineapple crème brûlée ???????????? Highly recommend. I also only speak on this from a takeout perspective,but the staff was incredibly friendly and kind! Read more
I visited this restaurant/bar for the first time Jan 2020. It was a great experience. We had a large work group and a ton of... different corporate cards. The server was very nice and accommodating, the food was absolutely delicious, and the live band wasgreat. I visited again Jan 2022 by myself this time and sat at the bar. I was disappointed the menu had changed, I wentspecifically for the chicken/shrimp nachos but it was no longer available. The bartender Rory was SUPER nice and told methey’ve changed chefs since I last visited. I ordered the Ahi and Avocado Poke as an appetizer. It was good but the chipsthat came with it were blah. I had the Fish Sandwich for dinner. I was surprised and disappointed it was beer battered. Ittasted okay. Not sure I would go back. Read more
The rib sliders and crab wraps were well prepared, fresh and tasty. Very nice open air atmosphere just off the beach. Solid... device. Would eat here again. Very nice that the manager called me me in advance of my reservation to advise the weatherwasn’t looking good and it would be OK if I didn’t make it. Thankfully, just sprinkles. Read more
This was the best meal of my entire life. I got the furikake crusted ahi and it was absolutely phenomenal. The service was... great. They forgot our appetizer but made it up to us. We will definitely come back here. I adore this restaurant. Read more
