Mahalo to Joy Wang & Corina Quach for including us in the Top 2019 Valentine's Day Spots in Honolulu It's 2019 and we're giving you both classic and unconventional Valentine's Day date spots for the #newyearnewme. From the spoonuniversity.com blog site!
If you haven't noticed already, Spoon Hawaii loves our local restaurants, and what's more local than a restaurant started by three UH Manoa alumni? Tiki's Grill & Bar has an amazing view of the famous Waikiki Beach, from their lanai seating in the Waikiki Aston Beach Hotel, and this is the perfect spot for a romantic evening with your loved one at a very affordable price.
Their Valentine's Day special includes a choice of the adorable Heart-Shaped Watermelon Salad or Lobster Bisque, along with their Surf & Turf (petit filet mignon AND lobster tail?!), and Twenty Layer (yes, you read that right. twenty. layer.) Raspberry & Chocolate Crepe Cake for only $49.
We love that Tiki's uses so many local ingredients in their dishes (175lbs of local grass-fed beef & 450lbs of locally caught/raised fish each week), and the fact that they give back to numerous charities in the community touches our hearts. Chef Ronnie prepared many Hawaiian/Pacific Island + Asian Fusion dishes that had such nostalgic sense to them. It was like an upscale, cozy family dinner at home. But fancier. And with a beautiful view.
