Hy's Steak House

For our Anniversary we decided to try Hy steakhouse in Waikiki, Hawaii. Our experience was great. We were served by Teresa with help from Mana and JP. We started off with the house made Caesar Salad. Teresa literally made it in front of us. Then we ordered the Porterhouse for two, Medium Rare, mash potatoes and veggies. Teresa cut up our steak in front of us! It was delicious! I had an Old Fashioned and My bride had the Hy Blend Cab. Delicious and refreshing. We finished off our Anniversary dinner with the Bananas Foster which Teresa made in front us us as well! The presentations were on point, Teresa insured we were taking care of the whole night! We had such a great experience! Our wait staff were top notch! FYI they do have a dress code, no open toed shoes, no hats and must have a collared shirt.

we went here for an anniversary dinner a few months ago, finally made the review now! the food is good but definitely save this place for a special occasion. service is super on point. highly recommend, the steak was yummy. the beef wellington was good, not exactly the best I've ever had but it was well cooked and delicious. the complimentary dessert to celebrate our occasion was a nice touch.

I rarely feel compelled to leave a review, but Hy's Steak House went so far beyond my wildest expectations. I have frequented many great restaurants all across the United States and few reach this level of excellence in any singular category - Hy's knocked it out of the park in all of them. The food, the ambience, and the service is all top notch. I was blown away by how much attention to detail is put into creating a memorable dining experience for the patrons here and you can tell each worker in this restaurant takes pride in what they do. This was the best steak dinner I have had in my life and I would return to Honolulu just to eat here again. Make sure you don't skip dessert and order one of the tableside flambe options - a very unique and old school touch to cap it all off with! Come here for a quality meal in a friendly and classy atmosphere. Well done, Hy's! Simply superb.

Reservations only. And they'll call you a few hours prior to make sure you'll abide by the dress code. Complimentary valet at the restaurant so you don't have to look for parking. That's nice at least. The service from beginning to end was absolutely flawless and impeccable. We get checked on by multiple servers consistently and the water gets refilled right away when it reaches a certain level. Everyone was polite and friendly which made me feel really comfortable being there. Then comes the food. They do give you a free starter, 4 pieces of cheesy bread. Used to be 6 btw. For a party of two, if you ought to order an appetizer, two entrees, a dessert and drinks. You'll probably be looking at $250-$280 not including the tips. Everything was marked up at least 200%-300%. For what exactly? Hey I don't mind splurging once in a while but i wasn't sure what i was paying all that money for. I ordered the scallops for appetizers, they were seasoned well and tasted fine. A little on the smaller side but whatever. New York strip and potato for entrees. I could easily get the same meal from Outback or Ruth Chris for half of the price. Tastes the same and nothing stands out for me. The dessert chocolate mousse looked very pretty and it was tasty too without being too sweet. The cocktail, again, very teeny tiny glass and not much to drink. For a $20 lemon drop I'd at least expected a bigger glass. Overall, great service and mediocre food that was not worth the price. The service definitely enhanced my overall experience, but I was there for the food and that didn't come first for me.

The service was great! But if there are well known for their steak I wonder why the steak is not even prime at all it's kinda dry my cousin have to ask for an A1 sauce to add flavor. The dessert and sea bass was really good though.

DRESS CODE!!! For men, come with shoes that COVER YOUR FEET!!! The steak was cooked very well, perfect I can say, and the service overall was outstanding and not overwhelming. As vegan you can also enjoy some sides, so don't be afraid to try this place if your partner eats meat.

My husband & I always try to make it a thing to dine here when we're visiting (3 times so far) and the food/service has always been great :). Please note: they WILL enforce the dress code here & even contact you a few hours before your reservation time to remind you to wear close-toed shoes and are not arriving in beachwear. There's a complimentary valet & parking also for anyone that is renting/driving here. The full rack of lamb I had was wonderful, cooked to my liking, and easily sharable between two people (I let my husband snag a few pieces as I got full). Desserts are wonderful too, highly recommend the tableside Bananas Foster.

Truly the best experience in Honolulu. The food is amazing. Service is incredible. The table side preparations are so fun! Took myself and three 16 year olds to dinner and our cheeks still hurt from smiling, we had the best time. I wish I could give more than five stars.

Salad& Soup too salty. Steak is not tender. Not a good quality meat. Mediocre food with fancy setting.

Came to Hy's at their Pop-Up location at La Vie for a low key birthday dinner for my Mom. Upon checking in, our host (Jeani?) wished my Mom a Happy Birthday and we were promptly seated. She also gave us menus which said "Happy Birthday" on the top which I thought was nice. Service at Hy's is always the best and the same is true here at their open-air pop-up. Our server Dayle was very attentive and easy to talk to as well as the other staff that helped tend to our table. We had oysters and cheese bread to start. I forget what kind of sauce came with the oysters but it paired well with the oysters. Hy's cheesy bread is the best! I could've just ate that all night and I would've been satisfied. Haha. For entrees I got their special of the night which was a Steak Diane with the sauce made tableside. My mom got the Sea Bass and my Dad got the Delmonico. It was all delicious as I so luckily got to try a bit of my Mom and Dad's food too. And then we also shared a crème brûlée for dessert which was also good. Overall wonderful experience at Hy's. Service was excellent, there's a nice view overlooking Waikiki, and I didn't mind the open-air concept. It was near sunset so it wasn't too hot and humid and there was a nice breeze. If I had to point out some minor things...it would be that it's right next to the pool so you can hear the guests in the pool and there's music playing from the pool. And one time a bird came and hung out on our table for a bit. Lol. These weren't much of a distraction for us but for some people it could be so I figured I share that. I'm not sure when renovations will be done at Hy's original location but I'm glad they're doing this Pop-Up in the meantime and I hope they don't change too much during renovations. Highly recommend this Pop-Up concept if you can't wait for Hy's renovation to be done. You won't be disappointed.

Ambiance: Traditional American Fine Dining. Dim romantic steakhouse. Service: T and Louis did an excellent job with timely service. Formal and relaxing. With contemporary live music playing. Food: what we ordered: Soup du jour: Lobster Bisque Prepared Tableside warm spinach salad Steak Medium Rare Delmonico with loaded bake potato Banana Foster

I love old steakhouses, that old man library wood ambiance. This place is no joke, super expensive but worth it? I would say staff needs to be well informed on the dishes if they are alll going to be over $30 each The seafood? Chowder? Wa shoos but it was more of a puree with cubed veggies, cold. Maybe a few cubes of ginger? Something hard to chew. I would not recommend it. It was definitely played pretty though The steak was good, served with steamed veggies. Boring but free I guess. Cold again. Oysters weee very tasty but I had better in china town for $2.50 each. Wine selection is great. Be prepared to seat next to some interesting people .

Decided to come to hys pop up at LaVie to celebrate my mom's birthday and had the worst experience ever!! Service: 0/10. Took about 40 minutes to get seated for my reservation. Only saw our server 3 times throughout the whole night. Our apps took so long, we ordered before the table next to us and they got their food first. We literally were there for 3 hours!!! Food: 7/10. Nothing much to say it was alright not the best tasting entrees, besides the escargot which was a hit! Overall not coming back. Thanks

First off I would like to mention the outstanding staff. The hostesses were extremely courteous. Chris and Cameron did an amazing job, amazing service. The atmosphere was solid. A little loud, but that was due to how busy it was (there were a couple of large tables 8+ people). All in all good vibes. Now on the main course...I had an off the menu special an American Wagyu tomahawk ribeye. It was cooked to perfection, juicy and almost melt in your texture. I recommend the bananas foster for dessert. The table side flambé makes for an excellent precursor for dessert. Fantastic experience every time I've been in.

The food was decent, the crab cake had a lot of chunks of meat, the oysters are from Washington so you know those were good, we also had the rack of lamb which I would have liked to have gotten a picture of however I was preoccupied with the super handsome waiter Tyler from Ohio. Too bad I didn't get a picture of him, he was the most delicious thing in the restaurant. Go for that if anything!

We had the worst experience here! Party of 7. Food NOT served at same time. First 3 came out. Waited 5 minutes for next 3. One order came out 30 minutes later than everyone else. Steaks were prepared wrong for 3 of 7. Quality of steak not as good as previous visits. Manager and staff did not care. Offered free dessert for trouble. We loved this place and every time we visit we go here. WAS our favorite steakhouse in Hawaii. We will NOT be back after this visit! Very disappointed.

My 1500th review is going to be on Hy's. I dined here recently with the bestie. Everything was next level from the service to the food. You know it's truly fine dining when they put the napkin on your lap and use a crumber between courses. I've been to four other fine dining places recently and non of them did this. We shared the 24 oz. dry aged bone in ribeye. We got an extra plate of veg du jour and mashed potatoes for $10. We also ordered the Maine scallops, truffled king crab mac-n-cheese and bananas foster flambé. I wanted the table side show, lol. They also brought over complimentary cheese bread that they kept refilling and that we couldn't stop eating. Everything that we ordered was spot on and delicious. I ordered the steak medium well and it was perfect. I know you shouldn't get steak past medium, but I can't eat it when it's too red. I'm ok with mac-n-cheese, but it's not one of my faves. However, the truffled king crab mac-n-cheese from this place was the best that I've ever had. It wasn't oily at all, had chunks of king crab and that sauce just put it over the top. Get this if anything. I would have licked the sauce off my plate if I wasn't in such a fancy restaurant, haha. T was serving us the majority of the time. She did a fabulous job. She was the one who flambéd our bananas foster for dessert. It was quite the show. She added three types of liquor and the bananas went up in flames. The sauce and caramelized bananas were so good over the vanilla ice cream. Thanks to the bestie for dinner. I had a wonderful time.

Hy's has been our go to restaurant to celebrate special occasions since I was a little girl. And now it's a place I still go to with my family and with my own children. It's a great place for a date night, celebratory meal, or dinner with family. From the appetizers like escargot to the desserts, everything is delicious. The cheese bread is the best! Not only is the food wonderful, but the service is also outstanding. When you come to Hy's, you truly come for an amazing experience. Always save room for dessert! The flambé desserts are delicious and it's a show! Happy eating!

Last dinner for this trip, and Hy's was the perfect choice. It feels like a hidden gem, but it's packed with people! Not to mention the super old school classic steakhouse vibe... you almost forget you're in Hawaii! Pros- excellent service. Joab and Darren were the main servers, and they were awesome! Darren made the best Caesar salad I've ever had. Perfect amount of each ingredient. Salad is also made table side, which was fun to watch. The cheese bread, we asked for more, it was that delicious! Everything we had was on point, although, I will give the edge on mashed potatoes to La Vie, who we found out is a sister restaurant to Hy's. Cons- none that come to mind. It's pricey, but you know that going in. Hy's was a lot of fun. Super friendly employees that we interacted with.... oh, they have a special grilling booth for the special meats, I've never seen anything like that before. They put your leftovers in reusable bags too, which we all thought was a super nice touch. I would definitely come back....

We had an incredible meal at Hy's! I got the coco aloha to drink without the banana liqueur, and it tasted like strawberries and cream- I still think about it. For an entree I got the garlic steak and it might be the most flavorful steak I've ever had. Even if you don't like mushrooms, just push them to the side, this steak is worth it. My husband got the NY Strip with the Au Poivre sauce which was great too, but we both liked mine even more. We also got the apples flambé which they do tableside and it was fun, I liked the dessert a lot but it was more about the show than the dessert. The service was so warm, multiple people stopped by our booth to wish a happy birthday, and they even took a photo of us and sent us home with it in a cardboard frame.

We've been hearing rumors that they are closing for renovations and will rebrand when they reopen. This is also our first here since they changed management. Unfortunately, this time our experience fell below expectations. The service level has gone down just a bit. The food quality is also noticeably below par.

This place was so elegant and peaceful! I ordered the filet with a lobster tail and it was perfectly cooked! Every bite so delicious. Their cheese bread simply melts in your mouth. The service was incredible! Must try!!!

I have been having my birthday dinner at Hy's for several years now and this year was no different. The service and quality of the food are at the top as always. The ambiance is definitely that of an old-school steakhouse which I really enjoy. Last night I started with the French Onion Soup. As I had hoped, I was able the have an End-Cut Prime Rib with a Loaded Baked Potato and some Veggies. All were outstanding! My only disappointment was that I was not given a slice of Cheesecake on a plate with a candle with Happy Birthday written in chocolate around the edge of the plate. When I asked, I was told they no longer do this and they haven't for over a year. We'll I was here last year and for my birthday and they did deliver and I have the pics to prove it! Anyway, pretty disappointed. Other than this aspect, it was a good birthday dinner...just no longer special.

Fist time to Hy's steakhouse always wanted to come here and it was amazing Darren and his team JP, Zen, John provided great customer service We got the following koshihikari echigo beer Lychee mint cooler For da boys Marina punch Australia sher black label Cioppino 5oz prime rib Lobster bisque

This is a rare establishment that offers Beef Wellington without having to give at least a day's notice. As Hawaii's oldest steakhouse, they have mastered their dining experience and every food and drink item was well-crafted and delicious. The interior of the restaurant feels old-timey classy and cozy. There is a grilling station set up right in the middle of the dining area where you can watch the steaks sear in real-time. Ceasar salad is made from scratch at your table and the flaming desserts also provide a bit of entertainment. The staff are all extremely knowledgeable and provide top-notch table service. My favorite meal items were the cheesy bread starter (even better if you dip it in the escargot butter), the beef Wellington, and the apple streusel. If I had any negatives to point out, it would be that the bar only seats four and that the cherries jubilee dessert item is no longer offered due to supply issues. There is a dress code for patrons so be sure to come with the appropriate attire!

Wanted to try an old, high end steakhouse, so made a reservation here for dinner on our first night in Oahu Arrived a few minutes before our reservation and checked in at the hostess stand. Was very busy with people everywhere. When we finally got to the stand, we checked in and they asked us to wait outside? Didn't ask anyone else to wait outside. Very odd. Taken to a nice booth and reviewed the menu. Decided to have the scallop appetizer while I ordered the Delmonico and my wife ordered the beef Wellington. We started with salads made table side, which was cool and very tasty. Scallops were very good, sweet scallops with tasty sauce. Best My steak was good, cooked ok and delicious. My wife's Wellington was good but the dough wasn't cooked through. Not good The cheesy bread was yummy and the drinks were good. Service was up and down. Our waiter was missing for long stretches, but the helper was awesome and took care of most things Was a cool experience but not sure I'd go back

The service and food was delicious as I remember from a long time ago. Glad to see it is still around. I wished they still offered the garlic fried rice like they used to.

The food was not good. Took forever to serve. My steak was too raw and the veggies were barely cooked. The baked potato was old, almost like it was cooked the previous day. When we arrive and checked in few minutes before our reservation, the host asked us to wait outside even though there was no people inside. Strange. Overall experience was very poor. Overpriced place with low quality meats. Big disappointment.

Wow. Was really disappointed. This used to be my go-to place for closing dinners. Prices have gone up while the quality has gone down. $175 for the seafood tower. I got two. The fish was stringy and the shellfish had a strong fishy odor. For some reason the iced teas were thick and murky. The onion soup was really salty and the au jus was too. The restaurant was really hot too. Hopefully they correct these problems because they are good to the Honolulu community but after dropping $1400, I won't be going back until I hear better news coming out of there.

Wow! What an extraordinary place! 1. Service is untouchable. T took care of our table, along with others, but that level of care and pride in your work, amazing. My girlfriend had a million questions, my other girlfriend has peanut allergies, T took the time to answer all questions, make recommendations and made banana foster tables ide (to die for) 2. Food!!! Oh the magical food. If I am paying this much dor dinner, my requirements go way up. They delivered. The humble star of the show was baked potato. They bring all the condiments and dress it up. As someone coming from Seattle and Pacific Northwest, I am definitely an oyster snob. Their oysters were on point. Flavorful and fresh. Beef Wellingtons are prepared so well, Gordon Ramsey would like them. And the ambiance and professionalism. Beautiful space, tastefully decorated and you definitely feel like you are in a 5 star steakhouse. Coming back on our next trip!

We were lured in by the amazing smell. We got there before opening and they were able to get us a reservation for 5 when they opened. We were immediately sat. Service was amazing. Our servers were kind prompt and seemeless. We got the complimentary cheese bread. Which was like open face grilled cheese. The lobster bisque was served in a shallow bowl making it hard to eat. The steaks were ok. Nothing amazing. But the banana foster was to die for.

This is several months late, but we were at Hy's for New Year's Eve and it was a blast! Balloons everywhere! Looking forward to their reopening coming soon! The new years menu was the same as their regular menu but they had a lot more specials available. Our kids got to take home as many balloons as they wanted, which was a nice touch. Service was excellent, as usual.

We had my husband's company holiday party here. Its been a minute since Ive been here. Easy to find, valet is right outside the entrance of the restaurant which is nice:) We immediately got seated with our party. It was nice to see our preordered menu on the table. Let me just say, the service was AMAZING! We had several people waiting our tables as we have a party of 20. My water never reached half cup, they were on it. Now lets talk about the ambiance, PERFECT lighting, not too loud, but I gotta say which wasnt my favorite part, but they have a lot of stairs, LOL. For someone who doesnt wear heels much, I wasnt a happy camper, but it was okay, haha.. Alright lets get to the food, golly it was DELICIOUS. We all had pre ordered our meals due to such a large party. I ordered the Sea Bass and let me just say, it was cooked to perfection *chefs kiss* nice and soft and moist. the asparagus was cooked just right, and their mash potatoes, let me just say that stood no chance, LOL. The caesar salad wasnt the greatest, I had better but it was okay. Now to the dessert, my husband had the banana caramel with ice cream and I had chefs choice which was a crème brûlée, im not a sweets person, so my husband and I switched, LOL. Ohhh I cant forget the lobster soup (not the correct name, sorry) that my husband it, it was AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS, so hard to describe the flavor, but let me just say, the chunks of lobster that was in there was sooo nice and soft, they had some croutons mixed in the soup, it was very tasty. Overall, we had a great evening :))

Great steakhouse in Honolulu near Waikiki Beach! Just a short walk or ride from most oceanfront resorts. Hey's has a great atmosphere - dark with wood paneled walls, providing a classic steakhouse feel. Service was prompt and friendly. Steak was very good; most are served with a potato and vegetables. Overall, great experience.

Hy's Steak House has an old time charm with wait staff in suits, a dark woods, and dimly lit ambience. To add, they also have "Hy's Black Car Service" for private car transportation to and from dinner. We had the table side Caesar for two $42 4* Beef Wellington $88 4* Cioppino $69 3.5* Dulce de Leche Molten cake $15 3.5* The Caesar salad was great and we loved the extra vinegar brightness in the dressing. The beef Wellington was cooked perfectly and paired nicely with a lovely sauce. The dulce was not a molten cake and my favorite part of the dessert was the buttered popcorn ice cream.

So, since I'm on vacation, I'm not paying too much attention to "price" and we decided to spend Father's Day dinner here a day early. Unfortunately, I was NOT impressed at much here. Let's start with the pros... (there's one pro) The French Onion soup was probably the best I've ever had and I wish I had more, but we opted to share two orders for the four of us, which made my cup of soup $9. I realize there's a long process to make a good French Onion soup, so well worth the money. There's not much to a Caesar salad, but when you have a good one, you know it. The Caesar here was just meh, which we also decided to share in anticipation of not eating too much before the well advertised Tomahawk. Paying $42 for two Caesar's we were definitely paying additional for the show and hand made dressing. We ordered the Escargot because it was on my "to do" list. $28 for 6 pieces. Tasted like mushrooms with garlic and cheese. Oily. The bread was JUST bread. NOT even toasted (or warm) ... No surprise, but not impressed with the cheese bread which was overly greasy and lacked taste. There was also no refill, which on second thought, no need. The drinks we had were tasty and at an average price of $22 per alcoholic beverage which seemed to be the going rate in currently in Hawaii, however, these lacked alcohol and since I only drink socially, can usually tell immediately if there's a sufficient amount of alcohol, or not. These were fruity, like punch. The service was satisfactory and our server was pleasant, but wearing a mask makes it difficult to understand clearly the specials, etc. I get it that it's your option to wear a mask, but just know it's distracting and takes away from the quality of the service, IMO. Our server, (#46) assured us that the 32 oz Tomahwak "silver" was totally enough for the 4 of us to share, so at the $185.00 price tag, we went with his suggestion. So, for $46.25 per person, we all got 2 slices of steak. $23.13 per slice? I'm guessing that the 32 oz weight included the bone. TOTALLY crazy. I would be more impressed if this so called "Wagu" beef was tasty and/or perfectly cooked, but it was fatty and not impressive.... at all. The chocolate lovers flambe dessert was delicious at $21 for vanilla ice cream, fruit and chocolate sauce. Once again, we paid for a show. I (really, really, really) wanted to like it here as it was my last dinner after a beautiful vacation on the islands, but unfortunately, not impressed for this $$$$ restaurant.

Took my wife to our favorite fine dinning restaurant to celebrate our anniversary. This time a little short on a perfect review only on a couple of things . One we arrived about 15mins early before or reservation and your table wasn't ready . Which is fine no problem so the host suggested us to wait in the lounge until our table was ready . Secondly no one approached us for any cocktails until roughly 10mins while we were sitting in the lounge area, Third : waiter took our cocktail order than the Host sat us to our table and advised us that he will bring our cocktails to our table Fourth : my cocktails order was correct only a beer but my wife's cocktail was wrong . Fifth : I been to Hy's many times and normally on any special occasion like birthdays, anniversary. They provide a complementary dessert last night nothing ? . Overall the food was delicious like always . The service was a little slow other than that I Love going to Hy's.

Food was okay. Probably ordered the wrong thing when I had the Delmonico. It was quite tough. But the bananas foster and the apple streusel did not disappoint.

Back again for another amazing night, food was the best. Steaks cooked to perfection, staff / service are always friendly and welcoming.

The long awaited journey to dining in at this establishment has finally happened this past Saturday night and my expectations (as well as my friends) for this place went south. Upon entering, the host staff were really welcoming and accommodating to have us seated earlier than our reservation. Although it would've been a lot better to get seated in a booth (which seemed to be saved for couples only), my friends and I were seated in the middle of the restaurant. The ambiance seemed like we were in a quiet, dark vintage library...it gave me "Titanic" feels. Most steakhouses are dark so nothing to complain about there. Now, onto the food. The complimentary cheese bread was so darn good, my mouth is watering while typing this. We ordered the Caesar's salad, which was really really delicious; crab cake (too small to share but it was perfect for the four of us), the escargot (best thing ever!), king crab Mac and cheese (it was good but not the best), and the bone in rib eye and Delmonico....had NO taste, whatsoever. It was pretty disappointing, to the point where our server noticed and came to our table to offer some sauces. I wanted to like it here...but the steak did it for me, for us. We didn't complain, we just sat through the rest of dinner trying to enjoy the most of it. Service? Our server, Treadway, had a dry humor and although it was funny at first, it was getting overwhelming throughout the night. I guess you'd have to go in and see for yourself to experience what he's like. His assistant, Aaron, was attentive and friendly. The service started off on an expected steakhouse pace but the second half was dreadful. We had reservations to another spot and didn't get to order our friend some dessert for her birthday because our server never really came around after the steak and sauces. Overall, the steak was the make it or break it for me and unfortunately, I'm not sure if I'd want to come back. I heard that the Beef Wellington is a must try so maybe, just maybe, I'll give this place another shot.

I've been to Hys for a birthday dinner. This was actually not recent and prior to Covid. But, service was great. Professional staff! Table side service and also food was delicious. I also had their lamb chops. Thank you for making my birthday a memorable one!

Owner Hy Aisenstat opened the 1st Hy's Steakhouse in Canada in 1955 & subsequently expanded in Canada & US. He died in 1988, & wife Barbara took over until she died in 2008, & son Neil became its President/CEO. In 2011, the Japan-based G. Lion Group acquired ownership of the Hy's Steakhouse in HI, which also operates La Vie & Quora restaurants at the Ritz Carlton Waikiki. Hy's Steakhouse HI opened in 1976 & has maintained itself as an old-school award-winning, fine dining steakhouse located in the Waikiki Park Heights condo where prime grade steaks are aged, trimmed on site, grilled over kiawe wood, & served in an elegant old-world ambiance. It's a perfect place to celebrate special occasions. My daughter's family lives in Wailuku, Maui & had planned to join us on Oahu for the holiday weekend. Granddaughter Kayla was to turn 9 that weekend, & w/ my hubby's birthday just a few weeks prior, it was a perfect time to have a celebratory dinner at Hy's Steakhouse. Called 3 weeks prior for a reservation, but there was no availability during prime dinner time. W/ a 9-year-old, you know that 8:15p reservation, which they had available, would be way too late. I explained the situation to the hostess who put us on a waitlist which eventually cleared. We were treated to an excellent dinner: * Cheese garlic bread. Served warm, the cheesy, garlicy bread sticks were addictively delish! It was complimentary; however, if you request additional bread, there is a charge. * French onion soup. Perfectly made w/ caramelized onion & gruyere, mozzarella & Parmesan cheese, no skimping of cheese here! Love the rich, flavorful soup that complemented the melting cheese. * Delmonico steak (16 oz). Chose mashed potatoes & sautéed veggies to complement the juicy, soft, & flavorful steak. Daughter's choice, & she loved it & could finish only 1/2 of the generous portion. (This cut is named after the Delmonico's Restaurant in New York City, made famous in the mid-19th century. English in origin, it's named after Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington, which was one of his favorite dishes.) * Beef Wellington. Excellently prepared with mushroom duxelle, prosciutto, Dijon mustard & served w/ a tasty truffle demi-glace & fully loaded baked potato & sautéed veggies. So glad that my hubby & I shared this dish (carved at tableside), as 1/2 was such a generous portion & so filling. Our son-in-law also ordered it, but could finish only 1/2 of it. It was wrapped w/ a buttery, flaky pastry crust & had a nice crunch that contrasted w/ the tenderness of the juicy beef. Really old-school dish that you hardly see around. * King crab legs (side order). Had a craving for crab legs, & the sweet juicy crab meat did not disappoint! Good sized crab legs served w/ clarified butter. * Kids' spaghetti w/ meat sauce & garlic bread. Kayla enjoyed her spaghetti, which was a generous portion. * Chocolate Lovers Flambe. Definitely a must-order item & a show stopper w/ our waiter creating a burst of flames at tableside in cooking the chocolate sauce w/ burgundy, chocolate, amaretto, coffee liquor, & brandy & pouring it over Haagen Daz vanilla ice cream w/ pineapples, bananas & strawberries. Although I love bananas foster, 2 chocolate lovers in our family defaulted to this choice. No complaints, as it was heavenly & so refreshingly delicious! While we ordered only one order, our waiter made 2 separate dishes, each w/ its own scoop of ice cream & fruits for the 5 of us & a candle each for the birthday person. (The Japan-based owner made a management decision to NOT offer any complimentary dessert for special occasions. Wish management would reconsider, as fine dining establishments locally oftentimes provide a complimentary dessert for such occasions, & diners are paying high prices at these restaurants. Thanks to our waiter, Jason, for accommodating.) Excellent customer service provided by tuxedoed staff that made you feel like VIPs. Our waiter, Jason, was over the top & ensured that we enjoyed our dining experience, esp. w/making our flambe desserts into birthday desserts. And he took our picture & gave us two framed photos as keepsakes. Jason's finesse was exceptional! Entertainment by Vernon Sakata, an acoustic, classical guitarist from the 70's group Schnazz, from Wed to Sun, 6:30p to 9p. Sadly, our favorite Audy Kimura of "Friends & Lovers" fame, retired. W/ high ceilings, rich dark wood paneling, plush leather booths, authentic Tiffany stained glass & library book shelves, the ambiance creates an old English mansion & is a special occasion favorite. Reservations only. Dress code of required collared shirts & closed-toe shoes for men; no beachwear or flip flops. Complimentary valet parking only. Open daily 5p to 9p. An outstanding experience of excellent food, great ambiance, & superb customer service made this a special dinner for us. Nine-year old Kayla summed it up perfectly by saying, "too fancy!" Yup, she's learning that it is how it should be.

Hy's Steakhouse Waikiki located along Kuhio Street. Traditional Steakhouse ambience dark wood walls, fluted lighting, comfortable dining. Over the years their menu has changed from a large selection of delectable dishes to just a few favorites. They serve Prime Cuts of Beef, Lamb, and Seafood. Service is today's version of fine dining. Your beef or lamb expertly grilled over a Kiawe wood fired grill. Unfortunately the featured entrees (on the Food Channel) are no longer available. The Signature Pork Chops and Cherries Jubilee are no longer available.

My friends and I finally treated ourselves to Hy's after talking about it for over a year! It's located in the Waikiki Park Heights hotel and has free valet parking. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful, and I liked the upper section where we were seated that had a little more light. I got the garlic steak and shared all the flambés (chocolate lovers, apple streusel, and bananas foster). They also served the best cheesy bread I've had in my life! The steak was delicious - super juicy and the perfect texture. Mashed potatoes always makes a meal excellent! However, the best part of the steakhouse was the dessert! The service was excellent, especially when putting on a show with the flambés. It's definitely worth the price if you're celebrating something special.

I decided to celebrate my birthday while on vacation and was recommended this spot. The service was great - our waiter was very attentive and always checked in to see if we needed anything. However, I was disappointed with the food. For how expensive it was, I expected more. The dishes we ordered were not memorable and lacked flavor. On a positive note, they do take a picture of you and print it out which is a cute memorable take home. While the food didn't quite live up to my expectations, the service and souvenir made for a nice experience.

We're baaaack!!! Back to my favorite restaurant for our wedding anniversary dinner. Did Hy's give us anything for our anniversary? Nope not even a scoop of ice cream, no cherry, no bread, nothing!! Anyway... we started off with caesar salad which they make at your table. It was great. We didn't want to over stuff ourselves because we wanted dessert. For our main dish, I had the special, Australian Wagu. Believe it or not, Wagu beef is raised in Australia then sent to Japan. Not all of the Wagu just some. The Australian Wagu was nice. Seasoned nice and the meat was tender, not like what I get in Japan but it was good. I enjoyed it. I also ordered baked potato with everything on it. Yeah load'em up!! My wife had the Oscar, which is a steak topped with crab meat. I think she likes it... it wasn't cooked as she liked it but she took home the rest to warm up later. Our choice of dessert was Chocolate Lovers flambé. This topped off a nice evening with my wife. Like I stated earlier, even though they know it's your wedding anniversary, you get nothing. They'll give you ice cream if it's your birthday. I've been going here since the 80's and it's always been my favorite, but It seems the quality at Hy's is going down. Our waiter Jerrell was great and servers were on it! The quality of the food, even the dress code has gone down. I seen a girl wearing shorts, a tee shirt with slippers. Whaaat?!? I think I'll leave my review at that. Happy Dining!!!

Crab Cakes ($29): the mango salsa was bomb, but I was a little disappointed with the portion size. Dry-Aged Bone-In Ribeye ($136): would definitely go back to this restaurant to eat this steak again. The ribeye was so juicy and tender!

The world food travelers stopped in at Hy's Steak House in Waikiki on National Wine Day. Wow, the restaurant was busy, busy, busy. We were seated at a table near the entrance, across from a large party celebrating the 16th birthday of one of the young men. It took a while to peruse the extensive wine list ... It didn't help that the lighting was very subdued. I ended up using my phone's light to see the entries. We selected a 2017 Volnay from Domaine Del Comtes Lafon, a lightish, very smooth Cote de Beaune with undertones of earth and plum. A basket of cheese bread was dropped off first. Alas, it was cold by the time the wine was served. We opted for escargot as an appetizer. It came with two mini loaves of warm bread ... perfect to sop up the garlic butter sauce. I tried using the cheese bread; that proved to have more body to soak up the sauce. We ordered one of the two steak specials, a 32oz Snake River Farms Wagyu bone-in ribeye and a side of grilled asparagus with Hollandaise sauce. Our plates came with French Fries (your choice of starch) and some green beans with onion and julienned carrots. One of the hallmarks of Hy's is tableside presentation. Our steak was expertly carved and served. The steak was delivered medium rare as ordered and was very tender but could have used a little more seasoning IMO. The sides were okay but nothing special. The asparagus spears were very thin in diameter and came with a dainty ramekin of Hollandaise. It was fine but I would have liked thicker asparagus. We ended our meal with two desserts, the White Russian and Uncle Randy's Affogato. The White Russian was a Kona coffee crème brulée with a chocolate biscotti and a dollop of espresso mascarpone. My affogato looked like a caramel sundae as the ice cream was topped with whipped cream drizzled with caramel. I would have preferred the espresso to come separately because it was cold by the time I started eating it. Final thoughts ... Hy's is a classic steakhouse in the best sense ... with a wide selection of steaks, one chicken and two seafood options. It reminds me of St. Elmo's in Indianapolis. Food: 4, Service: 5+.

I love a great dinner. Service and Quality is essential. Cameron and treavor ( i believe) really made this a special time. They are young guys and the tuxes looked baggy and goofy but they gave 100% heart while servicing us. A little shakey but did great. FOOD was amazing Better than Ruth Chris hands down . The ambiance is classic even through it has seen its glory days, it can be polished up alittle just saying. Cockage fee is High for any restaurant even for Waikiki. But still cheaper to BYOB. Save a couple bucks. Give it back as tipi feel. If its earned . Now, downside about this expensive dinner is that there were 2 tables with Loud kids. Crying, throwing things. It was very distracting and not the place and time at 7 pm on a sat. I'm paying hundreds a dinner for a upscale environment and experience instead I felt it turned into a Sizzlers. So I have to take away a star. Hopefully next time we can have a 5 star experience.

So amazing here. Everything was cooked with perfection. I liked the little window in the middle to watch, service was great, drinks are great will be back soon. This is only partial of our meal we had lamb and a couple other things as well. once the first few meals came and we started taste testing I was not thinking about any more pictures lol

Luxury at its finest. The highlight of our trip.The best restaurant experiences on the island so far. We had the pleasure of being assisted by Bob and Randy, not sure if it's get any better than them. The food was amazing. I had the lamb with mashed potatoes and veggies. The green jelly sauce for the lamb was AMAZING !!! The table-side prepped Caesar salad was fun watching and the dressing they made was delicious. My husband had the DELMONICO. Recommend cooking as medium rare and ask them to throw some garlic butter over the top . We also had TRUFFLED KING CRAB MAG-N-CHEESE. It was pretty heavy but so delicious! The cherry on top was the dessert. We had the banana foster, It was a Carmel, banana with ice cream with a hint of citrus flavors. They cooked it by our table and it was not only fun to watch but one of the best desserts I've had. You must try this restaurant. Recommendations: make reservations early, and be aware of the dress code. The average cost is $130-150/person

Had an amazing dinner here with friends! Loved the old school atmosphere and how you could see where they cook the meat. All the food was high quality and I had new flavors I haven't had before. The service was amazing throughout the night and the table side service was entertaining as well. I was surprised by their caesar salad - literally the best I have had. I watched videos after to try to recreate it because it was so good. The dessert of bananas foster is a must get - I could eat triple the amount for how good it is. The steak is the real highlight - definitely recommend getting it because it is broiled with the kiawe wood. Wow you will not get that flavor just anywhere. It was such a treat to eat here and valet was super easy as well!

"Old skool tradition for that special occasion" Hys Steakhouse has been a special dinner tradition for over 46 years. This is the classic type steakhouse that once dotted the island and now pretty much stands alone. Covid has changed the landscape in so many ways. The type of upscale service, decor and primarily meat options reserved for those special occasions such as anniversaries, birthdays, dates to impress or fat business expense accounts. So in our most recent visit, the first since pre-covid, it gave our group a chance to recapture the special occasion dinners to celebrate the birthday for a long time and good friend. Beef Wellington is something I enjoy but never get to try because I have not seen it on the menu. The classic steak house offering: beef Wellington with baked potato and veggie medley made for a delicious entree. Add a bananas foster with its flambé flourish, and you have the perfect ending to a classic meal. The food service was on-point. Valet service only.

Every last thing about our visit was special and perfect! Mahalo Chris and everyone for making my husband's birthday dinner special. Even our teenage daughter was immediately put in a good mood, and enjoyed herself fully. My husband enjoyed the bone-in ribeye. (And I'm enjoying the leftovers today.) I opted for the chili and Seabass, and was not disappointed at all. The pan-searing was perfect and the sauces somehow made it even better. definitely get the baked potato. I would like to point out how much of a difference it makes to arrive, have a welcoming experience with the valets, be in the door, and at the table so quickly. We do not receive that level of service for spa appointments! Thank you everyone for going out of your way to be so kind. A special thank you for the beautiful photograph to take home and live music, which really adds to the experience. We will definitely be back for our most special occasions! Mahalo Nui Loa Hy's!!

all locals were by high steakhouse where the valet and parking are free. I'll be at in WAIKIKI by the Zoo end. The food is always excellent and the Weight staff are very friendly and will chat with you if they're not too busy and you want to chat.

Outstanding service in a wonderful glamorous setting, steaks were perfectly cooked, only disappointment was the bananas foster, needed to add more butter to give it added richness, they need to google the Brennans recipe from New Orleans to learn how to make a proper bananas foster

Excellent service and steaks!! We had Surf & Turf, Delmonico Steak cooked medium rare which I was very happy with and Cioppino. Forgot to take a photo of the Surf & Turf which comes with a filet mignon. My son preferred my Delmonico Steak! It's so worth it, especially if you're celebrating something special! The Banana Foster is a must and is prepared at your table.

Fine dining at its best! I would recommend Hy's steak house as it has really good food and a great ambience! Our server, T was attentive, knowledgeable, and efficient. The table side Caesar salad and Apple streusel flambé were both really delicious. Their seabass was to die for! I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner there and would definitely come back again! 5 stars all around
