Summary

Our readers adore 'Ohana, which means “family.” (Breakfast with Lilo and Stitch might be reason enough.) The fact that the food just keeps coming make it all taste a little better. Request a seat in the main dining room, where the fire pit is.

Setting and Atmosphere

Columns of carved tiki gods support the raised thatched roof in the center of 'Ohana’s main dining room, while the dining tables, arranged in rows, resemble long, segmented surfboards. The centerpiece of the main room is a large, open-pit grill, on which your food is prepared with flair and flare: From time to time, the chef will pour some liquid on the fire, causing huge flames to shoot up. This is usually in response to something one of the strolling entertainers has said, evoking a sign from the fire gods.

‘Ohana is perfect for families with young children. At any given moment, there may be a hula-hoop contest or a coconut race, where kids are invited to push coconuts around the dining room with broomsticks.

House Specialties

Skewer service is the specialty here—there’s no menu. As soon as you’re seated, the feeding frenzy begins. Starters include honeyglazed chicken wings, fried pork dumplings, pineapple-coconut bread, and mixed green salads. The main course is steak, sweet-and-sour chicken, and spicy grilled peel-and-eat shrimp, accompanied by stir-fried vegetables and egg noodles with pineapple in teriyaki sauce, all placed on a lazy Susan in the center of the table. Breakfast includes scrambled eggs, island-style fried potatoes, and Hawaiian pork sausages.
