Roy's Ko Olina

Serious Eats! I knew going into Roy’s was going to be a financial heart ache but I can now say it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought. More importantly you got more than your moneys worth. DO NOT snack before you go.
Our group of 4 from Illinois knew we were going for good food and an experience of a lifetime with great friends. We started with cocktails and complementary edamame, great start. Wait staff was outstanding and described many offerings that were not on the menu as well as some of the signature dishes. Very tough decisions to be made from here.
We started with 2- Canoes for Two and Compressed Watermelon Salad. Personally, after the fact I can say I could have just had the Watermelon and Feta Salad. Very light and refreshing vs. egg rolls and complements
For the entree, I had Chinese Style Opakapaka. It had bits of sausage and mushrooms sitting on baby Boc Choy. I have to say it was the best fish I have ever had, being from ILLINOIS remember. Then I tried my friends Misoyaki Butterfish. OMG, this fish was amazing. If you are a group of 2, these would be the two dishes to get so you can share. HUGE portions that are double the size for the price we would get in the Midwest. The last entree was the Grilled Japanese Hamachi. Delicious fish, huge portion but just didn’t amaze me like the other 2.
We had coupons for desert. The Lava Cake was such a good way to finish a Celebratory meal with great friends. Drinks, Mai Tai was the favorite over the Martini. The lady’s loved the Chardonnay.

Food was amazing. We were advised by our tourist with Hi5 told us about their amazing food and the best Pineapple martini he had near our resort. We were not disappointed. The drinks and food was great. The waiter was friendly and tentative. If ever near there again will go back again. The price is high but the food is worth it.

The Butterfish is very good and lives up to the hype. In general, the flavours are intense - don't let the fish on the menu fool you, you'd better enjoy rich food! Well worth the price on every level - service, ambiance, taste, presentation, creativity. It was a great night out.

I brought my Wife here to celebrate our wedding anniversary and her Birthday! What a pleasurable evening we had!! Every moment from first stepping foot in the restaurant till we stepped out was fantastic!! Andrew and the support staff were amazing and attentive! From quick refills, to friendly conversations, excellent recommendations, accommodations and overall genuinely friendly and caring service!! Thank each and every person and member of the Roy's Ko Olina family for making our anniversary and Birthday celebration an enjoyable and memorable one!! We truly enjoyed our evening and the food!!! Mahalo!!

Ordered the three course Prix-Fixe and enjoyed every bite. The flavors were highly complex, thoughtfully executed, and balanced. The service was excellent before we even reached the door as they held it open for us and welcomed us. Our server, Norman, was attentive and professional but also had a personal touch. The support staff could be seen everywhere, filling glasses and checking on meals, so there was never a missed opportunity to order another cocktail or ask about the menu. The open kitchen was running smoothly and quietly even during the busy dinner hours. Lastly, they brought us some wonderful berry tarts for free as a congratulations for visiting on our honeymoon.
