Where to eat in Waikīkī

Moderate

Duke's Waikiki

Waikīkī

Duke's Waikiki (Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach) — the most famous restaurant on the strip, named for surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku. Directly on the beach; the hula pie dessert is required. Expect a 30–60 minute wait for dinner — put your name in, grab a drink at the downstairs bar, and watch the surfers.

Marugame Udon

Waikīkī

Marugame Udon (Waikiki, on Kuhio Ave) — handmade Japanese udon noodles and tempura at astonishing value: a full meal with noodles and two pieces of tempura for under $15. Cafeteria-style service, fast, excellent quality. Best quick lunch option in Waikiki — counter-programs the overpriced resort dining perfectly.
