Waikiki Leia

This restaurant is tucked away, off Monserrat Ave - away from the hustle and hustle of the cafes. We loved the cosy setting and water feature in the garden as well as the attentive service. The place is tucked away so we initially couldn't find it and had to drive another round. Maybe a large sign out front would be helpful 😊.

Beautiful setting, great atmosphere, and nice presentation. Unfortunately, that was the highlight. There was a trash-like smell near the porch, flies swarming us throughout the meal, and the restaurant wouldn’t even split a straightforward bill despite everyone ordering separately. The food was the biggest letdown. The omelet sauce tasted sour and off, my wife’s steak was gamey, and despite knowing my friend was vegan, the staff still put in the order of a dairy-based soup. A beautiful wedding venue, perhaps—but the food was genuinely poor, and that’s what we’ll remember.

The best choice I've ever made for my wedding venue!! I chose this place for my wedding ceremony + dinner buffet option. Tom was so helpful in guiding us through all the available options. The chapel and the building for reception and the surrounding gardens are beautiful. You don't need to find another location for wedding pictures. This venue provides multiple scenic spots for pictures, both inside and outside! Pricing is also reasonable compared to the other venues that provide all the above options in one location. 100% recommend! The parking is plenty, about 6 parking lots, but more spaces if you pack them, for a small wedding, which is hard find for Hawaii :)

I went for breakfast. Getting a table was slow despite we have reservations. It seems they don't have a dedicated person in the reception instead is one of the waitress that are already busy doing a spot to check in people. Food took long to get to the table but it didn't disappoint. I found the many somewhat overpriced but for one time experience maybe ok. No eggs as an additional for your pancakes just a whole omelette dish for $25. I did like the pancakes and the location. People seemed happy with their food at the table. It is quiet and clean.

A gem in Kaimuki! I don’t know why I never found this little gem before. From the outside it looks like a house but upon entering you will be greeted with a very well manicured garden with an abundance of foliage and flora. After checking in you will be led to an open dining area facing a water fall with diamond head in the background. We went there for the brunch and the food and drinks were excellent although I felt like the Oma rice or omelette rice that I ordered could have come with a piece of meat of some sort or perhaps the rice could had some kind of meat in it. So I ordered a side of meat instead. My daughter had the eggs Benedict and she said it was perfect! She is an eggs Benedict expert. 😜 The setting is just very peaceful, calming and inviting. Saki ( our server) had a beautiful smile and had a very good energy about her. If there is one thing I could suggest, it would be to have fresh branches or flowers cut to put on the table instead of the plastic ones they have. I feel like because we are in Hawaii there should be no excuse to have plastic flowers anywhere. But all in all, this place made it to one of my favorite places in Honolulu.

Atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. The service and hospitality are excellent. Attention to detail. The food is amazing. Soufle pancake soft and just right, pairing with the fruit added an extra burst of flavor. The shrimp, the crusted salmon and potatoe gratin were amazing. Very flavorful. I loved every bite.

A beautiful brunch spot set in a garden within a wedding venue. The environment is serene and soothing, with the gentle sound of a waterfall in the background. We tried the eggs Benedict and soufflé pancake—the portions were on the smaller side, and the soufflé wasn’t as airy as expected. However, it’s still worth a visit just to enjoy a laid-back morning in such a peaceful setting.

Beautiful place! We had a lovely time here. I wanted to try their souffle pancakes but it was a breakfast menu. Lunch starts at 11am and here is the latest lunch menu as of July 22nd.

Very disappointed. I heard about this place and it took me some time until I actually went there and meanwhile I read reviews and saw photos of the foods and menus which got me excited. Finally went there for lunch and noticed that they had changed the style. There used to be options to choose from, like for pasta lunch, which type of pasta and which protein but there are no longer options. I chose Wafu (unfortunately vegetarian), which I normally love in general but it was boring flavour even with the dashi it came with. Parfait was pretty good though. Customer service was good. Apparently, dogs are allowed on the patio seats. We reserved a table just in case but it didn't give us a nice table. Relaxing atmosphere with a great view. As a total, it's not worth it, in my opinion.

Customer service is exceptional! We dined here for valentine's dinner and The food was delicious! My 13 month old enjoyed his keiki plate. I also appreciate that they provide sanitary wipes. Would love to try going here for breakfast and lunch as well.
