Haleʻiwa Beach House

Everything was delicious, our waiter was very friendly, the vibe was good. We arrived right after sunset and were seated immediately (in late September). We had the braised short rib and grilled mahi mahi, both were amazing! Will definitely go back for the drinks, food, and the vibe.

Hawaiian food generally tastes saltier than I want and this restaurant was no exception. The appetizers and salad were pretty decent but the entrees were way too salty. I hope they will change. That being said our waiter was great and we really enjoyed dining there. The view was beautiful looking out to the ocean and sunset.

We, a group of 8, came here on a weeknight to celebrate a successful work trip. We made reservations for a time slightly before sunset. They seated us at a table which was beach side, and we were able to watch the sunset while drinking fresh made and well made drinks. I ordered the steak and it was cooked perfectly, a medium-rare. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a quiet, beach side evening.

Way overpriced. Check the current menu pricing as the Google reviews somehow has entree pricing that is considerably less than the current pricing (as of Sept 2025). The restaurant is aware the menu is wrong on Google but inconveniently they have not corrected. On to the food. The signature braised short ribs were so salty and swimming in a pool of gravy. We also ordered the shrimp scampi- it was terrible, the pasta tasted like it came out of an instant package. Seriously, way overpriced. I felt so sorry for the tourists I saw in there. The bill for our family of five came to $350 plus tip. It would’ve been pricey even if the food was okay but the entrees were terrible! The only good thing I can say is the sunset view is ok if you’re seated in one of the few tables along the road. Oh and as long as you don’t mind looking across a highway with cars constantly rumbling by.

Was nice. Hadn't been there in a while and wanted to check out menu. Just had a Thai Tea. Has lots of vegetables. Up if you like Cilantro. I don't but , was refreshing. Sean was multitasking Working on his 53rd Birthday. Great service. Mahala.. Happy Birthday.

Haleʻiwa Beach House was one of our favorite stops on the North Shore. The open-air dining with views of the ocean was amazing—we could even watch surfers while we ate! It was busy at lunch, so we waited about 20 minutes, but they text when your table’s ready. We walked across the street and strolled the shoreline while we waited—it was beautiful and made the time fly. The food was delicious and portions were generous. We had cocktails, an appetizer, and shared mains—everything was great, but the corn was unforgettable. So savory and full of flavor! If you're in the area, this spot is a must. Great food, great views, and a relaxing vibe.

Amazing location, food, and service. Nick our server was the best you could ask for, he had all the answers even to questions we didn't ask and double as a phenomenal on the spot photographer. My wife and I couldn't have asked for better service and the food was just the icing on the cake. Only complaint we had was the people letting their kids run around and scream at the top of their lungs upsetting the most beautiful back drop of a sunset we could've asked for. We will certainly be back as soon as possible!

Nice dinner on the beach. Good food, lots of parking, and within steps of the sand. Modern inside, and the staff was accommodating with our group size. Overall good place to eat, with great views of the harbor and water. Recommended if you make it over this way

The service and food are both amazing and the ocean sunset view is gorgeous! And for Hawaii, everything is quite fairly priced. This restaurant definitely deserves more attention!

Delicious!! Had dinner here last Saturday and it was delicious and wonderful! The service was spot on! Nice gentleman was very attentive and helpful through out our dinner. The ambiance is very inviting and comfortable to sit the day away eating and drinking. The appetizers were delicious, ahi poke and fried calamari. Super yummy! Crunchy tender tasty pieces of calamari in a crispy batter. The tender juicy pieces of tasty ahi were delicious! The clam chowder was one of the best we have ever had! Every bite and I mean every bite is loaded with tender juicy pieces of clams and goodies. This chowder can definitely be a meal in itself! It is so creamy and delicious that I can't wait to come back. We both had the lobster cob salad. The greens were so fresh and crispy but the real high light is the lobster. It is to die for! So buttery and juicy that I could eat a ton of it. Every bite was light eating a delicious bite of tender lobster soaked in butter! We shared a chocolate lava cake with ice cream which was a perfect end to such a wonderfully delicious meal! So yummy!!!!!!! If we could give this place 6 stars we would! This place is awesome!

By a lover of beauty who mourns its wasted potential Ah, Hale'iwa Beach House... A property with the soul of an empress and the execution of a court jester. From the moment you arrive, you're bewitched. The view? A seascape fit for a Monet. The building? Minimalist coastal with just enough rustic wood and glass to tease you into thinking you're about to experience something transcendent. It whispers promises of candlelit elegance and curated bites kissed by the Pacific breeze. But then the music fades, and the spell breaks. Let's start with the cocktails. The menu reads like a college freshman's first mixology attempt: sweet, syrupy, and painfully uninspired. One sip, and I was transported, not to Paris, not to a smoky jazz bar in Manhattan, but to a watered-down luau mixer. This bar doesn't have a mixologist; it has a bartender who memorized TikTok recipes. Nothing balanced, nothing bold. Just booze in a cup with a twist of lime to mask the absence of art. The steak, dear God, the steak. A slab of flesh masquerading as surf-n-turf royalty. Chewy, under-seasoned, lacking any of the sear or sensuality that a proper cut deserves. I've had better in airports. It's the kind of meat that dies twice: once in the slaughterhouse, and again on this grill. And the menu? A schizophrenic identity crisis. Is it seafood? Is it Thai ? Is it island comfort food? Is it tourist trap fusion? It reads like a committee of indecisive chefs had a group therapy session and everyone's trauma made it onto the plate. Nothing is signature. Nothing sings. Just a chorus of safe, bland, and forgettable dishes trying to please everyone and seducing no one. And yet... the place could be brilliant. It has the bones. The view. The light. The ambiance. With a real chef, a real bar program, and a point of view--it could rival the best in Oahu. But right now, it's dressed like royalty, but serving fast-casual in a tuxedo. A lover scorned still hopes. I'll return--but only after they cleanse the menu, hire a mixologist, and let the place finally become what it pretends to be. Until then, Hale'iwa Beach House is all foreplay, no climax. 3 stars--for the view, the promise, and the pain of what could be.

I had high hopes for this restaurant! The food was TERRIBLE! Ordered calamari for our appetizer and presentation was pretty but food was cold and the breading would instantly fall off from the calamari itself, it was also so oily on top of that! The sauce that came with it was okay. For our entree I ordered the garlic shrimp, my spouse ordered the steak frites and pasta for my baby. The garlic shrimp was extremely disappointing!! Rice and shrimp were cold! Shrimp were so tiny and looked like the ones you get at the frozen section from the grocery store. They added sauce on it to make it fancy! The salad was basic, good dressing tho. My spouses' steak was cold as well and the chimichurri sauce tasted horrible! It was like made days/or week ahead . No flavor whatsoever! My baby's pasta was okay. It was oily however it had flavor. Basic too! For $110, it was so NOT worth it!!! Don't waste your money!! The view was really nice though!

Parking: Lots of free parking in front of restaurant. Greeted by a smiling friendly hostess Ambiance: Beautiful Hawaiian weather with casual Haleiwa North Shore vibes. Comfortable and spacious seating. Service:Friendly local service, made great recommendations. Food: Sufficient variety to choose from appetizers; entrees; desserts

By far, one of the best restaurants i have visited in Honolulu. This gem sits on the North Shore in Haleiwa. I had the pleasure of visiting a few times now. The restaurant offers not only great food but awesome views of the beach at Haleiwa. The staff are great. Inhave had the fries and Loco Moco. Both were fantastic. The fries were like were hot and crispy, seasoned well. The Loco Moco is spot on. It is everything good in dish; ground beef, rice, brown gravy, with a fried egg on top. You can't go wrong with that dish. Drinks are fantastic as well. Mai tai and Blue Hawaiians are always good. The crowd is always inviting. I look forward to my next visit.

After visiting Waimea Falls, we were ready for dinner and found this place on Yelp. We started with the calamari appetizer, which was delicious and came with two sauces: yuzu mayonnaise and Thai chili. Both were excellent and complemented the dish well. We definitely enjoyed the calamari a lot. For the main course, I had the Lobster and Shrimp Red Curry. The flavor was great, but it was quite salty for my taste - I had to eat it with rice with every bite to balance it out. My husband ordered the Thai Fried Chicken, which was perfectly cooked and boneless. I was surprised since I expected it to have bones. It was very tasty. The service was excellent, and the ambiance was lovely - right across from the beach, where we were able to enjoy the sunset.

Service with Aloha. Our server was Raymond and he set the tone for our lunch. He was extremely friendly, attentive, and and to provide recommendations. The views are amazing and parking is decent as long as there are no events happening (i.e. paddling). The menu is small which is nice, with a variety of land and sea choices. The local flare to the dishes are a nice touch. I had the steak friters and the ahi club sandwich. The food was amazing. Also added on dessert, cookie and ice cream. I feel by far that was the best chocolate cookie I've ever had. We plan to have cookie dates there in the future.

Great views. Great food options with fresh fish. The drink menu provides many options. Also, we shared we have an anniversary tomorrow so they gave us a complimentary dessert.

I came here this afternoon with my family. Since I have various food allergies, I decided to write out my allergies for the server so that she can share it with the kitchen staff. Usually in these situations, I am used to getting a burger without a bun or just having a beverage while everyone eats. Our server brought my list to the kitchen and it turns out that the only option that would fit my dietary needs was the Lobster Cobb Salad I was super excited because this was something I had my eye on when I l9oked at the menu. I truly appreciate how the staff went over amd beyond so that I could enjoy my meal with my family, two of whom were visiting. The food was delicious, the restaurant was charming with a great vibe, and the service was great. I highly recommend you check it out, especially for the beach views.

Parking in front of the restaurant is great. We were lucky and got the ocean front seating. The menu itself has a variety of options. We enjoyed the edamame, spicy ahi taco, clam chowder. For main dish we had Kalua pig sandwich, spicy ahi club, and fish clans chips. They were all delicious.

We came here after spending the day in Haleiwa. We liked the view and the restaurant was relatively busy. We had a wonderful view of the ocean and the sunset for dinner. Our waitress was incredibly helpful and nice. The hostess was accommodating to let us have a nice table! To start, the sweet corn was delicious. The seasoning was perfect. It was sweet and the serving was good. I love that they have the skewers so those who do not bite the cob could easily cut it off. It was delicious. For dinner, I had the shrimp and lobster red Thai curry. It was PHENOMENAL. There was a slight spice and there was ample meat. The shrimp and lobster were cooked well and paired really well with the curry. The rice portion was great and I loved the carrots, beans, and other veggies and potatoes in the curry. It was truly delightful. My husband had the grilled mahi mahi, it was delicious as well. The fish was tender and well cooked. I also really enjoyed the veggies. The drinks were really good, particularly the lemonade. It was not a typical lemonade but it was so sweet and yummy. My husband also had the fried ice cream. The batter was fruity pebbles and it was delicious. It paired nicely with the large cone. A great place to eat!

Overpriced tourist trap. Check the current menu pricing as the Google review somehow has entree pricing that is $10-$15 less than the current pricing (as of Sept 2025). The restaurant is aware the menu is wrong on Google but inconveniently they have not corrected. On to the food. The signature braised short ribs were so salty and swimming in a pool of gravy. We also ordered the shrimp scampi- it was terrible, the pasta tasted like it came out of an instant package. Seriously, way overpriced tourist trap. I felt so sorry for the tourists I saw in there. The bill for our family of five came to $350 plus tip. It would've been pricey even if the food was okay but the entrees were terrible! The only good thing I can say is the sunset view is ok if you're seated in one of the few tables along the road. Oh and as long as you don't mind looking across a highway with cars constantly rumbling by.

The service was excellent but I found the food just about average. We ordered garlic shrimp plate (I was expecting the shrimp had a bit of crunch to it instead of just sautéed it) and the poke bowl. The ambiance was nice overlooking the water.

Best eatery and service on the north shore! great views, refreshing drinks and freshly caught seafood. highly recommended to ALL. Will be back!

We sat downstairs and had a beautiful view of the coast. The staff here is very friendly and helpful explaining the menu and giving good answers about food items and drinks. Not only for our table but I could hear them taking care of others as well. Place as a nice upscale charm to it and there was a steady flow of regulars and first-timers like us which is a good sign. People are coming to this place on purpose...LOL.... The entree $ theme here is $26. Pretty much any main course is right at that price range. I decided on the poke bowl, my wife picked the shrimp po' boy sandwich, and my two girls decided to share the garlic shrimp dish since they both were eating trail mix on the drive out here. This side of the island is in stark contrast to Honolulu or the developed side of Oahu and was quite peaceful and chill. The tuna was of course fantastic on the poke bowl. I like a little wasabi or English mustard but they don't really carry that. To be clear, the poke bowl stood well enough on its own so compliments there. They did offer to provide a spicy aioli which more than satisfied me and also made a good dip for the fries that came with my wife's po boy. Her po' boy had what amounts to a Hawaiian slaw on bread that I thought rivaled Gambino's from Louisiana. The shrimp were great and as mentioned before it came with fries. My kids had the shrimp was is presented in garlic sauce that is well-flavored, walking the line between not enough and too much perfectly. Rice mound comes out with furikake for flavor (which happens to be a favorite for my kids to add at home) and a salad with a ginger dressing that they said they both enjoyed. I would have liked to have seen the tails plucked and the shrimp de-veined but the flavors were dead on all over the plate. My wife got a Mai Tai drink and I stuck with water since it was near an hour drive back to Kapolei area to meet family. While you are there, make the quick drive down the road to Long's Drugs, park , and enjoy the outdoor shopping. Also a good time to try the world famous shave ice..... Tab came out to $100 on the dot and we left $120 cash and a heart-felt thank you. Make the trip out here and you won't regret it.

On Feb 26, 2025 We decided to come here for lunch when we was finish in town. When we arrived it wasn't busy so we were seated immediately upon entering. Service was great. We ordered Appetizers Shrimp Cocktail Spicy Ahi Wontons New England Clam Chowder Entrees Fish & Chips Cheeseburger & Virgin Pina Colada After eating here within 45 mins of reaching home I got sick with Symptoms of Food Poisoning that wouldn't stop and hours later I ended up at the er having to get IV Fluids, obviously something was clearly contaminated. It's sad that my first time coming here will be my last. Such a sad experience smh.

This place needs to disappear or be owned by someone that at least treats locals like they want their business. Attempted once again to eat here and we had a party of 8. 1 person got an emergency call before we were seated. These complete idiots then tell us we have to wait until everybody is present to be seated. We say "can we go in the bar and have a drink then to wait". No we are told, if we sit in there we have to stay there.....it's my birthday and really you are going to pull that card when there is only a couple of people in there? My party of 8 would have dropped somewhere around 1500 but we were happy to not give it to them. Stonefish here we come!!!!

The food was ok. Service and view were great. Nothing too special about the food. I had the lobster salad and the salad was room temp. I love a fresh cold salad. Just didn't hit the spot like I had hoped and there was hardly any lobster for what they charge. Staff were friendly though.

Service was friendly and quick, ambiance was excellent, food LOOKED amazing but tasted off. I didn't have the heart to send it back bc our server was so sweet but I'm kind of bummed I paid $43 dollars for mahi mahi and all I enjoyed was the long beans (kind of). My girlfriend said it tasted like feet and I thought she was over reacting so I tried it myself and I couldn't even finish my bite. It also had a really fishy flavor as well. We got edamame, a Caesar salad and the mahi mahi and I paid $92 for basically a bunch of vegetables because the fish was inedible. I had to eat Mac n cheese when I got back home because I was starving and broke after that disappointing experience.

Great North Shore stop for lunch. Garlic Shrimp, Fresh Catch grilled marlin and Caesar Salad after the Beach House Fries hit the spot! Wonderful, friendly service and nicely appointed dining area. Located past all the food truck madness made for a quiet, relaxed meal.

We got there early enough to get one of the tables along the side of the restaurant that faces the ocean (and the sunset). Rib eye (Paniolo Ribeye) is my favorite cut of steak so I ordered it. It did not disappoint. 5 stars. One daughter ordered the Thai Fried Chicken. She liked some parts of it and the sauce but complained about the quality of the chicken. She rated it 3 stars. The other daughter ordered the Lobster Cobb. She gave it 5 stars and said it was really "yummy". This was one of the best meals I've had in Hawaii in a long time. I will be back.

4-6-2025 Food: They took their spring rolls off the menu, what a disappointment. I had the fish and chips $27. And my husband had Garlic Shrimp $25. One beer $8 and one club soda $2. Total bill for lunch for two was $66.48. A little steep. Especially with the aroma. Service: Naomi was prompt and friendly! Mahalo! Ambiance: Overlooking the marina and ocean is peaceful. What a view. And their lawn was immaculate. But the sewage smell entering almost turned us away. Therefore, I deducted points, as well as the prices for a small portion for each (see pics).

So we didn't know that they stop serving lunch at 3pm and start serving dinner at 5pm but now we know so this is just a mild review because we were only able to have appetizer, soup and salad and drinks but the service was great the drinks were good and the calamari was good as well. Definitely got to go back for lunch or dinner to get the full experience. So what for the next review.

Situated on the North Shore of Oahu, the open-air restaurant sits right in front of Haleiwa Beach. The setting is perfect for enjoying a beautiful sunny day sandy beach with cool air. The restaurant offers a scenic view of the beach, adding to the relaxing and enjoyable dining experience. Our meal started with our attentive waitress, Naomi. She was full of knowledge about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. Naomi recommended the grilled Mahi Mahi. Though it was a bit pricey, it was worth it. Terri Burger on a Taro Bun: This burger, paired with garlic fries, was delicious. However, the plate had a lot of oil, which could have been cleaned up a bit. Loco Moco with a Twist This dish featured a wagyu burger topped with deep-fried onions over a bed of rice. It was absolutely yummy, and it's next on my list to try. Garlic Shrimp: Unfortunately, the Garlic Shrimp didn't appeal to me. It wasn't visually appealing, and the taste didn't meet my expectations. Despite the few setbacks, Haleiwa Beach House offers a great dining experience with stunning views and some truly delicious dishes, drinks, shakes and desserts. Marie

FOOD - SERVICE - & AMBIANCE If you're ever in Oahu don't matter what side of the island GO TO BEACH HOUSE. find your way here you won't regret it. Ahi wontons were amazing. Catch of the day was phenomenal. Spicy ahi blt is nothing like you'll ever eat anywhere else. highly recommend. The service is impeccable. Wonderful people.

This is a cute spot by the North Shore with a nice ambience and right in front of the beach. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the loco moco, the fish and chips, the corn, the shrimp appetizer, the poke nachos, and the clam chowder. Overall none of the food was bad, but nothing was incredibly amazing either. I would come here for the nice ambience as there aren't many great food spots in the North Shore I would say compared to near Waikiki. Some of my favorite food items included the corn and the loco Moco. The clam chowder was good, but the portion size was really tiny. Overall, a decent place to eat in the North Shore to try out one time.

This was probably one of my favorite meals while visiting Oahu! I ordered the Thai bbq crispy chicken sandwich. It came with the taro bun, papaya slaw, and tamarind bbq sauce. It was cooked to perfection and so delicious. I upgraded my fries to the beach house fries (tossed in garlic and furikaki), also delicious! My bf got the kalua pork grilled cheese (pretty small because it was an appetizer), but was also very good. There is a parking lot but it was full and we luckily found street parking right outside. The views from our seat were beautiful. I definitely recommend and hope to come back again!!

Gorgeous open air restaurant right in the beach! Great views. We got there right at 11 when they opened so did not have to wait at all. I have been when there was an hour plus wait so plan accordingly. Impeccable service- we had 3 adults a toddler and a baby in a car seat. We didn't even ask but they made room and added a chair for the car seat. The hostess and waitstaff were fast, knowledgeable, and friendly. The menu- so many things to choose from! New started with calamari and ahi wontons - both were plated nicely and tasted delicious. The yuzu aioli on the calamari is worth it but the calamari was crispy- no issue with the texture. The loco moco was fancy and the sauce was delicious. Very generous portions. The spicy tuna sandwich was spicy and fresh. The lunch special steak frites had so many fries and the steak was cooked perfectly. The yuzu aioli was also delicious- I got it for my fries. Couldn't get enough. The Keiki meals are generous- we had Mac and cheese with a side of fruit. Doe the Keiki- even brought out a water with a lid without being asked. The staff go above and beyond - the food is delicious- the view is amazing and the restaurant is gorgeous. It's a new go to when on Oahu! You will not be disappointed.

We popped in here on a Saturday as we did an around the island drive. We did not have a reservation and got right in. They do have a parking lot but it was full. We found a spot right on the street. No AC, open air/beach vibe so dress casual. The staff all seemed very nice. We just stopped for a drink and pupu. Had the calamari- it was ok. Other dishes coming out of the kitchen did look good, we may stop here again if we are in the area.

Located right across Haleiwa Beach Park after the famous bridge, this place, formerly Jameson's, has a great North Shore vibe with a nice open air view of the beach and boat harbor. Park in the lot adjacent to the restaurant or street parking. They don't take reservations but luckily they have a big space with lots of tables so we didn't have to wait long. We went for lunch and were stoked we got seated on the edge with an unobstructed view of the beach. Our server Iris was sweet and friendly like all the staff. Seems like they're well organized and used to handling lots of customers while maintaining the chill vibe! Food was good and portions were substantial. We shared: Beach house fries- interesting curved wedge cut with sambal sauce that had a little kick. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside with furikake on top. Beach House salad- fresh mix of greens with a delicious miso soy vinaigrette Garlic shrimp plate- don't expect North Shore shrimp truck garlic, but tender, fresh and sauteed in butter it was still good. Beach house loco moco- fancy version stacked with a nice dark yolked over easy egg, covered with a beautiful dark reduced gravy, and topped with crispy onion strings that offer a nice contrast in texture. I shoulda asked for medium rare since my medium seemed closer to well done. Hawaiian Teri beef plate- tender beef with a nice marinade that was not too sweet or salty. Chocolate mousse- looks like a parfait with strawberries, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce. A yummy finish! If you're into wine they have a bigger menu than one would expect. Nice dining experience slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of the center of Haleiwa town.

This is a cute spot with great views of the beach on the North Shore. We got apps and cocktails and enjoyed the view for a bit. It has open air seating so some local roosters will be walking around too! It's a fun little local spot.

Decent service but prices are just too much. Views are good. Was able to just do apps. Will probably skip next time.

First time here, but my wife had been here once before, so she recommended it for our anniversary lunch. The restaurant definitely has that Hawaii vibe with the open patio doors looking out at the waterfront. Reminds me of the days we'd meet up with mainland family members who were staying in Waikiki. We were promptly greeted and seated. The establishment was clean, and the service was excellent throughout our time here. The food was very good albeit priced for tourists in my opinion, but this being a special day with the wife I know when to keep such comments to myself. ;) We had a very pleasant and relaxing meal that was marred not by the meal prices, but by the addition of a kitchen gratuity on the check. I make it my personal mission to never patronize a restaurant that tacks on such a fee. Having worked for years in the hospitality industry, my family knows the importance of being good tippers. However, restaurants need to appropriately pay non-wait staff instead of expecting patrons to subsidize the wage the owner isn't willing to pay to keep them. Would I return? If you read my last paragraph, you know that answer.

I severely recommend this place to anyone looking for the "Hawaii experience", a great view, outdoor seating, and cleanliness. The bathroom, lobby, and tables were all very nice looking and clean! The service was great, they even gave us a little flower at the end. The food and drinks here are great, i recommend the Wagyu burger for anyone who loves a good burger.

Came for lunch today on our way to the north shore and our group of 7 was seated quickly. Food was amazing especially Andy's Teri beef plate was our favorite. Good kids options. Chickens were running around the parking lot and grassy area and my kids loved it! Close to lots of shops and shaved ice. Definitely recommend!

Recently, one of my eldest sister's BFF and former colleague was visiting Honolulu, so we got together for lunch and browsed at O'ahu's North Shore community, Hale'iwa. It's funny that even as locals, we've rarely driven around our island or spent time in other neighborhoods past Central O'ahu. However, after picking up my sister and her friend, we continued our drive to Hale'iwa while seeing how much the landscape had changed. Fortunately, we took the Kamehameha Highway route, which is one of O'ahu's main highways that leads to the North Shore, so there weren't any chances of us getting lost. My sister had made lunch reservations at the Haleiwa Beach House, but I still had to ask her for the restaurant's location. She said the restaurant occupies the former Jameson's By The Sea, which closed in 2015. Ahhh, we were familiar with the former restaurant's location since we would frequently dine there post-golf tournament play at Turtle Bay's Links Course. When we pulled into the adjoining parking lot, there was already a crowd and few open spaces. Entering the renovated and updated restaurant space was a pleasure as there seemed to be more natural light shining in, and the nautical décor appeared to be brightened with more local artwork. The welcoming hostess escorted us to a table on their patio with great views of Waialua Bay and Hale'iwa Harbor. There was a relaxed and comfortable breeze wafting through the terrace and grounds, so no air-conditioning or ceiling fans were needed on this sunny and hot day. Our server, Courtney, exuded a friendly and smiling Aloha Spirit. As she described some of the signature menu items, she mentioned the background of this restaurant site and the native Hawaiian cultural significance of the Loko Ea fishpond that the restaurant overlooks. She may have thought we were visiting the island and not the residents, but it was refreshing to learn more about historic Hale'iwa town and community. FOOD: - Calamari: this appetizer plate featured crisp fried seasoned flour-dusted calamari rings and tentacles. Its accompanying dips were a yuzu aïoli and spicy Vietnamese nước chấm. We liked the refreshing yuzu aïoli, but the spicy nước chấm appealed more to our tastebuds. Fortunately, the flavor and aroma of fish sauce wasn't overbearing in this dip, yet its umami paired well with the crispy fried calamari. $17 - Thai BBQ Crispy Chicken Sandwich: Tender and juicy chicken breast meat was marinated in coconut milk with Thai spices and herbs and then fried. The fried chicken was topped with a tamarind BBQ sauce, green papaya slaw (similar to Thai som tum), fresh cilantro, and kewpie mayonnaise and sandwiched in a fluffy taro bun. A mound of sidewinder fries complemented the sandwich. My eldest sister and I ordered this sandwich and were impressed by its flavors, textures, and value. $22 - Island Po Boy: The crispy and crunchy battered shrimp were perfectly cooked as the shrimp meat was silky and tender. The shrimp was topped with sengiri (Japanese julienne-cut) cabbage, house-made pickles, and rémoulade on a hoagie roll and served with sidewinder fries. My husband demolished this sandwich and fries, although I offered him half of my fries since he enjoys eating fried foods so much. .$24 My sister's BFF ordered the market-priced fresh ahi poke bowl that was colorful and tasty. She was impressed with the clean-tasting fresh ahi topped with briny sea asparagus, tobiko, scallions, and yuzu aïoli. She had never eaten or tasted yuzu before, but she found herself enjoying this citrus flavor that was more complex than lemons or limes. My eldest sister was surprised that we hadn't eaten at the Beach House since its renovation but, we claimed it's because we're "Townies." Now that we've tried this restaurant, we'll make plans to return. 4.4-Stars

Nice Waterside location, attentive, professional servers and bartenders. Recommend Loco moco plate and beef sandwich. Excellent draft beer selection. Suggest that owner install large mirror behond bar so patrons can enjoy view without having to turn around on stool.

Great service and good food. We ate in the bar and really enjoyed ourselves. Mahalo for the great night. I recommend the French fries and the curry, super yummy!

My first time dining here. I had not visited Haleʻiwa in many years so it was a nice treat to have a change in scenery. My good friend and I both started with the Chardonnay, La Crema Sonoma Coast, California. This white wine was so refreshing. We both had the cheeseburger and shared a Caesar salad. Everything was delicious and filling. The dessert menu looked good but we were too full. The staff were very friendly and our server was great. Although the restaurant was busy it wasn't too crowded and there wasn't a line outside which was nice considering the heavy traffic on the highway in front of the restaurant. Great location, nice interior and exterior. Overall great dining experience.

Food was great Service could have been better if you are starving not for you waited for almost 1 hour for food to come.

The open aired restaurant features a nice view of ocean off North Shore with the Haleiwa Marina nearby. We started off with a recommendation by our server and had their New England style clam chowder topped with crispy fried onions. It came out piping hot and was filled with lots of potatoes and clam goodiness! For entrees we had the spicy tuna club sandwich with a quick seared ahi tuna steak, crispy bacon, tomato, waipoli greens, hard boiled egg and chili aioli on a toasted pullman bread and served with french fries. I'd recommend this for anyone who loves a club sandwich like I do but with a fish twist! Our other lunch item was the Lobster Cobb Salad that had grilled croutons served atop waipoli greens with blue cheese, tomato, bacon, and a soft boiled egg, and tossed in an avocado ranch dressing. No huge wow factor but it was a refreshing change from all the meaty rice filled plate lunches we'd been eating. The service was good and overall experience was nice!

Came to celebrate our last night in Oahu. We were able to get seated right away at 5:30pm. Had the most beautiful golden hour beach view and amazing service! The food was satisfactory as well, especially the calamari.

Waited an hour for our food and drinks - the food being salad and grilled cheese.... Be warned, the grilled cheese is sized for a child. The food is good but the wait seems excessive.

Highly recommend, great view and service! We started with some garlic, edamame and spicy edamame. Both were amazing and the sauces were delicious. My wife and I both had the Thai barbecue chicken sandwich which came on a taro bun. My son got the fish and chips which he said was the second best ones he's ever had and my daughter got the kids cheeseburger. My parents got the lobster Cobb salad and the teriyaki beef plate. Everything came out fast and was very good. Would highly recommend and would come back here next time we are on Oahu.

Sat at the bar, service was great! Food was amazing, the salad had so much great varietal ingredients. Ahi cooked well and salad was crisp and fresh. The folks next to me had amazing looking fries, so I had to get some! Definitely a great spot on the North Shore!

Really solid choice if you're in the area. The Thai chicken sandwich was amazing. The purple bun was a surprise and very good! The vibe was super cool. Would have given 5 stars but the staff, although nice, was inattentive as it relates to refilling our waters.

For appetizers we had the tuna crudo. It came layered with guacamole and beautiful rounds of taro chips. The sauce was a little too salty for me but when mixed well with the avocado was perfect. The tuna just melted in the mouth. It was so delicious! I had the grilled marlin with side of rice And started green beans in a brown butter sauce. Was very good. My husband had the lobster and shrimp curry that was over the top yum. The fried calamari was appetizer was huge in portion. It was perfectly fried, crispy and light. The beef shortened served with mushroom and cappelini onions in a rich gravy and mashed potatoes was melt in your mouth Good. Our server was great and attentive. only thing we had several large groups ahead of us that delayed us getting our food. But that was not the restaurants fault. Great view of the ocean and partial sunset. I would go back again.

It was our last night in Hawaii so we decided to go for a nice dinner. Sadly, this place just wasn't the winner I wanted it to be. I'll start with the positives - the view is spectacular, really beautiful right at sunset. Second, our server was incredibly kind. As for the food, it was pretty terrible. I ordered the Beach House Fries for the table because we were all starving. Those were AMAZING. The spicy ahi wantons - just so much mayo. The tuna tartar - lots of overripe avocado with some not-great tasting tuna on top. The Beach House Salad was boring and the chicken we ordered on top was super dry. The shrimp scampi was okay, but very salty and too much sauce/pasta. My hungry teenaged son didn't even finish it, so that's really saying something. Maybe go for the fries and a drink to enjoy the view but skip dinner or feel like you are wasting your money.
