Step Back In Time To Experience Old Hawaii At This Classic Restaurant

The Moana Surfrider, which opened in 1901, was the first luxury property along Waikiki Beach, beating the Royal Hawaiian by more than 25 years. The historic hotel is often referred to as "The First Lady of Waikiki," and is the perfect spot for a relaxing staycation you won’t soon forget. But if you can’t afford an entire weekend spent at this historic hotel that is the embodiment of old Hawaiian elegance, you can stop by the iconic Beachhouse at the Moana for a luxurious meal you’ll never forget.

Welcome to Beachhouse at the Moana, an upscale Hawaiian restaurant that has it all: mouthwatering food, stellar views, a beautifully-decorated interior, killer patio, and an unforgettable experience.

The Moana Surfrider and the Beachhouse — which was built more than a century ago in an Italian Renaissance style — features not only a rich sense of heritage and history but also aloha spirit and Hawaiian hospitality that welcomes you in and makes you feel as though you’re royalty.

With jaw-dropping turn of the century architecture everywhere you look, the Beachhouse is as timeless and elegant as it is tranquil.

While indoor seating at the Beachhouse exudes elegance...

...you'll want to sit on the veranda, which features a more casual ambiance and stellar views of the Pacific Ocean.

And can we just focus on the panoramic ocean views for a minute? Simply stunning, wouldn't you agree?

You wouldn't visit a restaurant just for the views now, would you? Known for serving up fine steaks, fresh seafood, and vibrant island-inspired cuisine, everything at the Beachhouse is made utilizing high quality and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.

From appetizers like poke, crab cakes, and crispy tempura asparagus to scrumptious salads, steaks, lamb, seared ahi, shortribs, and salmon, you'll find a little bit of everything on this diverse menu that showcases the best Hawaii has to offer.

The island-inspired menu is perfectly accented by an award-winning wine list and signature handcrafted cocktails that will take your meal to a whole other level.

Don't forget about dessert! A variety of decadent cakes like this one are accompanied by gelato, sorbet, and and a chocolate peanut butter crunch bar. Yum!

What are you waiting for? A new era of elegant oceanfront dining and modern classic cuisine in Waikiki awaits.
