I stopped by this seafood boil spot inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center food court and decided to try the Cajun shrimp with rice (mild). I was honestly surprised to see a seafood boil place in a mall food court it's not something you come across often, so of course I had to give it a try! The food came out fresh and hot, and the shrimp had a nice Cajun flavor without being overly salty or greasy. The mild spice level was perfect just enough kick without overpowering the dish. The rice was a great addition to soak up all that flavorful sauce. It was $28+tax not bad for the amount of food. What really caught my attention was how quiet the food court was for a Sunday at 11am. Usually, this place is packed, so I was a bit surprised to see it almost empty. But honestly, that made it easier to enjoy my meal without the usual crowd or long lines. Overall, it's a nice hidden find if you're craving seafood while shopping in Waikiki. Prices are decent for the area, and it's a fun, unexpected option in a mall setting. I'd come back to try their other sauces next time! read more

This place is located at the food court with a lot of places to sit. Service was quick and the staff were nice! I ordered the spicy shrimp bowl and it was good! They add cilantro on top, which I love, but know that there are people that don't prefer it. You get 6 pieces of shrimp, which isn't too bad for the amount that you pay. I also ordered the Cajun fries, which was really good. read more

So good, the gods would never want to leave and eat anything else. Their prices may be higher than your average quick serve restaurant, but the portions are huge and the taste is incomparable. Only complaint I have is there's no veggies, but that's like saying is ___ healthy for you? Of course it is! Get the Garlic Butter Shrimp Platter. It's orgasmically good. Nom nom nom! read more

Would give 10 stars! Service was ok. This location is in a mall food court, so the service vibes are exactly that- quick, short, little conversation. The vibe is not the island vibe, which I could see would be a reason for someone to pass this place up, but that would be a huge mistake. Because it seems very "mall food" like, this place may not seem like a trendy, "only in HI" type of vibe, but you are mistaken. The food 1000000% makes up for any lack of island vibes. Pro tip- you can take it to- go and relocate to a more sunny, beachy vibe! The food here tho..... sooooo good. We got the #2 garlic shrimp and a side of fries and LET ME TELL YOU! it does not disappoint! I swear it's better than any of those north shore shrimps. I know I know, it's not possible, but imagine this: NO PEEL, clean hands, lightly battered plump shrimp- so crispy, so juicy- with so much garlic and butter that you doctor would disapprove.. served on a cute platter with a heart shaped rice.. and the portions.. THE PORTIONS... two shrimp plates in the north shore has NOTHING on one platter here. This is a MUST SHARE. I swear I'm really good at picking good food! Just try it before you walk away! It's worth it! read more

This place was such a great surprise! We didn't feel like going far after being at the beach all day so we came over to the food court. It might seem pricey but the portions are insane! The two of us couldn't finish this platter. I would say that it's perfect for a family of three. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and there was so much garlic! *I would've loved the garlic a bit more cooked but it was so good! This garlic shrimp dish truly did not disappoint! read more

Good gimmick but need to work on the placement of the chopsticks (more parallel /horizontal) to make it look more like suspending in the air. Right off the bat you could see lots of ingredients. The shrimp rice is the best with lots of shrimpsthe owner puts a lot of thoughts into making his items. Decorated art and yet very tasty. The cashier did warned us it would take more Or less 15 mins to make the noodles, initially I didn't understand until we ate it, everything was freshly made after it was ordered, not just have noodles and rice ready then pull sauce over and call it a day. Worth every minute waited. read more

Thank you Yelp Elite Li Y. for introducing me to this eatery. As you said, the shrimp noodles were tasty! Added bonus with the sausage in their House Special. I was very impressed with their garlic shrimp platter too. This really did taste as good as it looks! Meant for sharing, this had at least a dozen fried shrimp with an abundance of fresh garlic and butter. Very nice of them to provide disposable gloves for handling shells or shrimp tails. Or to ever politely sop up the buttery garlic goodness with a pinch of rice LOL This was the perfect size to share with Li Y. and Dan O. :) read more

A new food counter in the main foodcourt of the Royal Hawaiian Center. 206 BCE coming from California with some of the tastiest seafood and sausage morsels. Couldn't decide on the sausage or the shrimp "flying noodles" so got the house a special which is a combination of both. Yes. We have other restaurants featuring similar but not as tasty as these! For added flavor, get a container of chili sauce to mix in. One of my lunch partners enjoyed the sausage so much she got a side order of it to take home. Featuring various seafood platters, was focused on the Cajun spice snow crab and shrimp combo. Ordered it mild and found it perfect, not overpowering in flavor. Can also order seafood in a garlic butter sauce. Different Asian snacks snd chips also available here. With more than enough food we opted out of the snacks. Much thanks 206 BCE for coming to Hawaii. I will be back for more seafood goodness! Have my eyes on that garlic shrimp plate! Blessing of business just yesterday. Tomorrow is the official grand opening. If Kamaaina, be sure to mention to them. Also be sure to get your kamaaina or military parking validation from Concierge Desk just off of ground floor center stage in the Royal Hawaiian Center! read more

It had a little bit of spice, so if you're a big fan of spicy food, this will be the perfect food for you! We also tried their garlic shrimp and it's definitely worth the try! It was very buttery and the shrimp was so soft! If you want to go for something to share, definitely try their crab and shrimp platter! The sauce was so delicious and the seafood was fresh! Prices were affordable too, definitely worth to check out when you're at the Royal Hawaiian Center! read more

A seafood boil from a food court does not sound appetizing but my friend was crazy enough to try it & wow what a surprise. She ordered the #3 which is the Cajun crab & shrimp platter. It came with crab, shrimp, corn, potatoes and rice. The sauce was super garlicky and delicious. And the portion was big enough to feed at least 2 people. Compared to other seafood boil places the prices were really reasonable. And I did see another review show that they offer kamaaina discount which is awesome. read more

If you've got kids and you're staying at The Royal Hawaiian Hotel or nearby, this may just entertain them for a good 1/2 hour or more. Located in the Pa'ina Lanai Food Court, this "flying noodles" dish is a big hit with Keiki and Kupuna. We ordered ours with shrimp but there are a variety of seafood options. We also wanted a heart healthy version and did make a few changes to the order. The staff happily obliged. The Anti-gravity noodles may just be a cool marketing ploy, but it got our attention enough to place an order. Some of the employees at other kiosks and passersby seemed to get a kick out of watching us try to remove the suspended chopsticks to eat it. Definitely a happy meal for us. :) To go orders are part of the "no fly zone" and are not anti-gravity. Still tasty but not nearly as interesting. read more

After walking Waikiki beach, we got hungry and started looking for a place to eat, we went to a food court and after scanning through a variety of food options, what caught our eyes was 206 BCE Waikiki. They have a great selection and we picked the biggest order from the menu. This place did not disappoint. We got a pound of big shrimp, pound of mussels, pound of crab legs, couple of corn on the cob, and red potatoes. Also came with a heart-shaped rice in the middle, served with pride. The flavor of the sauce is very very good. Talking about finger-licking good. We were in the island for 2 weeks and this place topped our list. The place is located in a typical food court, lots of tables and chairs and a crew that keeps it clean constantly. It is in between floors so it's partially covered and did not see any birds trying to share what you are having. The staff are friendly with lots of aloha vibe. It's the best meal with lots of food for the next day. This is a place to come back to definitely when we're back on the island. read more

The Cajun ramen peaked my interest since I've never seen such a thing before. I was feeling like eating seafood too so I tried the Cajun mussels ramen and oh my god. It was DELICIOUS!! My ramen came out super hot (which is the best way to eat ramen!!) the broth literally tastes like Cajun seafood boil. It's full of chopped garlic goodness and a wonderful balance of cilantro to it. I could not stop eating the broth, I had to force myself to stop and it with the noodles. It came with 4 mussels, and all came in a good size :) the noodles were perfect texture and taste. The eggs were nicely soft boiled and paired perfectly with the ramen. The last addition is a sweet cob of corn, giving that Cajun vibes to the ramen. I was having a craving for seafood boil for the longest time and this satisfied my craving. I'm definitely coming back to try out more of their dishes :) read more

Photos look great on reviews so I decided to give it a try. I had the Sausage and Shrimp Anti Gravity Noodles. I wasn't expecting the sweet kick to the noodles and it wasn't spicy at all. I was expecting more spice and flavor, unfortunate for me. It wasn't for me personally but it may be for others if they like the sweet kick. I even added a lot of extra chili paste to see if it would give it the extra kick I wanted but the chili paste wasn't that spicy either. It was cooked well, the flavors used were just not for me. read more

GAME CHANGER! We ordered takeout and headed straight to the beach after! If you're craving a delicious seafood boil, this spot is a hidden gem. The seafood is fresh, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor--from succulent shrimp to sweet crab and tender potatoes. The best part? You can easily take your feast to the beach, making it the perfect meal to share with friends while enjoying the ocean breeze. It's simple, great value, and full of vibrant, satisfying flavors--everything you need for a perfect seaside gathering! Needless to say, this is our new go-to grindz when we're in town. We enjoyed our luau (cajun crab, shrimp, mussels, corn, potatoes) platter along with our fish and chips so much that we came back the next day for round 2. This meal lives rent-free in my head. read more

They added my name and took down my phone number to text when the table is ready. This place is huge. There is indoor seating with lots of grass "skirt" trim around some of the ceiling and bars, and the upholstery of the dining chairs are different colorful aloha prints. On the deck there are think torches and umbrellas and string lights. On the level just a few steps down are more umbrella tables and some musicians playing Hawaiian music. All around are photos of the famous Olympic champion, surgery, and actor Duke Kahanamoku. Much to my surprise, as I was looking around while waiting for a table, a girl asked if I was Denise.

We also ordered the Salmon with curry and it was good but it was served with part of the bloodline which is unacceptable in my opinion. The service was good and apologetic from bringing the fish out too soon. We did feel a little rushed by that. All in all a decent experience but I think I would probably avoid in the future.

This was our last food stop in a week-long trip to Honolulu and we could not have picked a better…read moreplace to celebrate our anniversary! Starting with the food, the paella is one of the most delicious meals I've EVER had. It was loaded with seafood and the rice was insanely delicious. The portions are generous and it could absolutely be a meal you share with someone else so you can both try different things on the menu. My husband ordered the burger, which he gave an enthusiastic thumbs up to as well. But what truly set this experience apart was the service by Sage. Not only was she incredibly sweet and attentive, it seemed like she had a true sixth sense for everyone's needs in her section. We saw her interact well with each of the parties near us and we were attended to with equal enthusiasm and kindness. With so many restaurants in Waikiki, I don't say this lightly -- we will be back!

Excellent…read morelocation and highly recommend walking there if you are staying close by the Kalākaua Ave. There are very limited dining area so we decided to order to go. We were also able to order online and the process was seamless. We have ordered the most expensive lobster roll, which I believe has 1/2 pounds of lobster. The lobster itself was super fresh and the texture is great. You can taste the freshness from the food and you know that the lobster is not previously frozen. Although the price is close to $80 for one lobster roll, the portion is huge. It can easily feed 2 adults. We enjoyed our experience overall but will opt for the smaller option next time haha

All rolls are served with following sides: crinkle cut potato chips, melted butter, house coleslaw, garlic mayo, lemon wedge, and Old Bay seasoning. The meat is served chilled in the bun. They have 4 "sizes" that they serve on a toasted brioche bun (~6 inch bun): - The Regular (3.5 oz)**: $36.99 - The Popular (5 oz)**: $49.99 - The Big One (7 oz)**: $62.99 - The Maine Event (1/2 lb (8 oz)): $74.99 **You can also ask for extra 1.5 oz lobster meat to this size for $13.99. You can also buy just the cooked lobster meat: 1/2 lb (8 oz) for $75.00 They have can drinks such as sodas (including Hawaiian sodas) and beer. The roll was actually quite tasty! I was able to experiment with different flavors with the Old Bay seasoning, garlic mayo, lemon, and butter. The garlic mayo was surprisingly good with the lobster. You can also throw the Old Bay seasoning on the chips if you're in the mood. The price is pretty steep which was my mistake. I don't know what I was expecting when ordering lobster in Waikiki. The lady at the cash register was less than pleasant and helpful so it makes spending that money feel a little more painful. If you can afford it and are really craving a lobster roll, this should satiate you. I didn't feel like I needed more to eat after finishing my meal. Location: The store is located in the Royal Hawaiian shopping center. You have to take a staircase from the first floor to a lower floor to get to it. You may need to ask around for directions. The restaurant is super small. Maybe two or 3 small tables that can fit no more than 6-8 people.

This was our last night here in Oahu. I wanted to do something special, we had gone twice to Duke's…read morerestaurant and enjoyed it but wanted to do something different. Chat gpt recommended this place and I have to say the AI was right! The place is really fun. You can park downstairs and they valet Park you and they will stamp you for free parking. The atmosphere is a fun vibe. They had live music. It's a indoor outdoor place. One thing to note, they don't serve their lunch menu after 4:00 so we went there expecting burgers and they don't serve them. So we kind of stayed reluctantly. I ended up ordering the guava ribs and my wife got them too. Those had to be the best ribs I think I have ever had! They literally fall off the bone as you're trying to pick up the meat. One of the reasons we wanted to go here was we wanted the options of seafood but one of our adults doesn't like seafood and they said that they had all kinds of stuff, which they do. Our server Maka, was incredible. He brings us out a free appetizer and said that was from the chef. I don't know if it was the chef or him but I was impressed and it was good. It was some kind of little fried dumpling. It was awesome! One of the people in our party had thought he was not going to order something and I gave him one of my ribs and after he tasted it, suddenly he wanted some too. I grabbed Maka and asked him If he could get those ribs fast because the rest of us were already halfway through our meals. He got right on it and had that order in. The ribs came out just in time and everybody was happy. It ended up being one of the nicest meals that we had the whole week. We were here and it was a great way to end our vacation here in Hawaii.

They were all incredible, but the Macadamia Crusted Fish and Teriyaki Salmon were the standouts. I would go back here again in a heart beat, it was so delicious.
