One of the absolute BEST restaurants! Mud Hen Water is easily at the top of my list whenever someone asks for an amazing dinner recommendation. I recently went to celebrate my birthday, and everything was just as delicious as I remembered. This time, I tried the peanut tofu. I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary, but I was pleasantly surprised by the creamy tofu, sweet soy sauce, pickled veggies, and pickled mushrooms--I thoroughly enjoyed every bite and will definitely order it again. In the past, I've had the meatballs and beet poke, which were both fantastic as well. The true star of the show, though, has to be the kiawe bean brownie. It is hands-down the most perfect dessert to end your night. Between the warm, rich brownie, the black sesame gelato (which isn't overly sweet), and the crunchy mac nut toffee that ties it all together, it keeps me coming back every single time. Excellent ambiance, top-tier service, and consistently delicious food. Mud Hen Water is a total MUST! read more

First time here and we had a birthday brunch for my wife. They have a good selection of mocktails that are cool and refreshing. I tried the Harmless Hugo, which had a refreshing herbal/floral vibe. Their Kaimuki Cruiser was very tart and citrusy. The corned beef and kalo hash was tasty but a bit salty. Eggs were done perfectly and the kim chee was a nice twist. The ma po tofu on biscuits was surprising and good. East meets West here, with a slightly spicy ma po tofu made with crimini mushrooms, which had a pleasant meatiness. The biscuits were excellent , but the watercress salad could have had more contrasting flavor. Since the dish was already soy-forward, maybe a citrus vinaigrette on the watercress might have provided a nice contrast. Our server was very good and explained all the dishes and specials. Ambiance is old-school Kaimuki with the Yamaha motorcycle at the front door to greet you. read more

Called ahead earlier in the day and got a table for 4 people outside on a Saturday night. I tried: + Big island switchblade cocktail + Palolo penicillin cocktail + Chicken long rice croquettes + Fried ulu + grilled octopus + kahala (Kanpachi) + Handcut pasta with venison ragu + Ume guava sorbetto Cocktails were alright, but the food was awesome! Kanpachi and pasta were the highlights, followed by the octopus. 4.5 stars. read more

** 4.5 rating Came here with family to celebrate a special occasion, and it ended up being such a memorable dinner. I've been wanting to try Mud Hen Water for the longest time and i'm so glad I did -- especially if you appreciate locally sourced ingredients and creative dishes that still feel comforting and approachable, I would definitely recommend. Parking can be a little limited since they only have a small lot, but we had a 6:30 reservation and were lucky enough to snag one of the parking stalls. If the lot happens to be full, though, there's still nearby street parking within walking distance. The restaurant itself has a really warm and intimate feel. Each indoor table comfortably seats around six people, so for parties slightly larger than that, the staff recommended either the high bar-style seating inside or outdoor seating. The outdoor area is actually really cute and would be perfect on a nice evening. What stood out to me initially was how attentive they were about allergies and dietary restrictions. Our waitress asked right away if anyone had allergies, intolerances, or specific diets, which honestly has never really happened to me at a restaurant that I can remember. We had two people in our party with tree nut allergies, so that extra level of care was really appreciated and made everyone feel more comfortable dining there. Since we had a group of eight, we decided to do everything family style, which I highly recommend. ** (There is an option to do family style on the menu which is $65 per person.) However, my family did not do that, despite not choosing that option we still left perfectly content. My family likes to eat to 80-85% fullness so it was just the right amount. Doing it this way really allowed us to try a good variety of the menu, and every dish that came out was genuinely good. Nothing felt overly heavy despite trying so many different things, and you could really taste the quality of the ingredients. They also brought out a complimentary eggplant purée with crackers for the table to try, which was such a thoughtful touch and a nice way to start the meal. We ordered the country bread, which had been recommended to us when we ordered the sausage and clams. It was warm, perfectly buttered, and really good overall, even though ours came out slightly more charred than expected. The one dish that didn't fully live up to the hype for us was the chicken long rice croquettes. I had seen them frequent in most reviews, so maybe my expectations were a little too high, but personally it ended up being the most underwhelming dish of the night. They got cold pretty quickly and ended up tasting a little dry. I'd probably rate them around a 6/10 -- not bad by any means, but also something we could have done without compared to the other dishes we ordered. One thing I would like to mention is that the water service could have been a little more attentive. It wasn't necessarily because the restaurant was busy, but more so that our table did need a bit more check-in throughout the meal. We are very much an only water family. We asked a few different times for water refills during the course of dinner and only ended up getting them once we were already getting ready to leave. That being said, the food itself absolutely makes this place worth visiting. For eight people, our total came out to just under $350 before tip. Still, for the quality of the food, atmosphere, and overall experience, I'd happily come back again. read more

Outdoor dining for Sunday Brunch... After doing some volunteer work in the Kaimuki area, my friends and I were looking for a restaurant with outdoor dining because of the pandemic. We called several places and took a chance on Mud Hen Water. I've seen this bar/restaurant at the corner of Waialae Avenue and 9th Avenue... and had passed by too many times. I was looking forward to finally try it! Bailey, the manager, was very friendly and welcoming. She was so gregarious that I wanted to return and finish this review... several years later... Sadly, Bailey moved back to Texas, where she's originally from... Anyway, having dinner here with an old friend was still a wonderful experience. We parked for free in the small lot right next to the building. About six cars can be accommodated. There's also street parking. We made reservations online with the Open Table app. A slot for 7:15pm was available and we took it! I received a text at 7pm, stating that our table was ready. I checked in and waited for my friend at the entrance to the parking lot. Our server was satisfactory. She said that the two best sellers were the Hand Cut Pasta with venison (my favorite) and the Chicken Long Rice Croquettes with Japanese curry and scallions. Both dishes were so good that we ordered the Peanut Tofu and Roasted 'n Raw Carrots. My friend liked the Peanut Tofu more than the carrot dish, so I finished the carrots. The entire menu was creative and unique! We had a nice experience! read more

Interesting menu that has some highs and also some lows. The highs: * Peanut tofu has surprisingly nice texture and pairs well with its sauce * Chicken long rice croquette has excellent crisp and is served on a delicious Japanese curry. Wish they served that curry over some rice. * black sesame ice cream (or was it gelato?) captured the flavor of black sesame paste in such a refreshing way. Lows: * pork belly was a nice cut but the main flavor was pork belly. Wish there was a more interesting sauce or rub. The cabbage served in the side was better than the pork. * venison ragu was fine but tasted like a well stewed beef with pasta. A little too rich. * kahala was well cooked but a little bland. The sunchokes might have been the highlight of the dish. The service was kind but timing and attention to detail can be improved. They brought serving utensils for the food but sometimes not the right utensils for what we were eating. And when we were still eating our meal, we were asked if we were ready to order dessert. read more

The vibe here is very interesting, I think it's kind of supposed to give a traditional island eatery vibe while still being a bit upscale. The food was amazing!! I had the kamuki cruiser which was excellent -- could really taste the grapefruit or citron in it. I ordered the ono melt and it was great. I loved the pickled spear they provided (pickled papaya?) which gave an awesome tart flavor to the food. The ono melt was pretty greasy and heavy but it comes as a closed face sandwich so it's pretty easy to eat. The bread is crusty and delicious. I loved the black sesame gelato!! And last but not least-- fried ulu!!!! Loved it and would go back just for fried ulu. read more

This place is so nice I visited twice within two days and then came back again the following month. Have I eaten enough fried ulu to feed a small family? NO. It's a trick question, because you can never get enough of Mud Hen's fried ulu. Not to mention the Chili Pepper Water Aioli will inspire you to lick the dish clean. I mean, obviously, don't do that, cause people will look at you weird, but that's how good it is. At this point, I've had brunch, lunch, and dinner here and every meal is a hit on a hit. Brunch: Sisig, better than my Lola's; Lunch: A'u Crudo, better than my dad's; Dinner: Sautéed Lotus Roots, no family dish to compare it to, but spectacular. And duh, fried ulu at every meal. Seriously. I'm back home on the mainland and dreaming about this fried ulu. It's like a pull-apart fried potato, but with a heartier texture and bonus nutritional value. If I wasn't already married I would marry this fried ulu. Ed and his staff are the consummate hosts. His food has so much love and culture in it and you can see that in where he sources everything from to how it's been prepared. The servers are lovely and earnest and eager to share their favorite dishes with you. The vibe is neighborhood and local and warm. I can hardly wait to go back. read more

Ambiance was good...We celebrated a birthday dinner there (they did not acknowledge it, although it was listed on the Open Table reservation...) The service was great. I liked the food--we had a complimentary eggplant hors' d'oeuvre which was delicious. I got the Kahala (kanpachi) which was really yummy--I could only finish half, so I boxed the rest up, and I forgot it there!! WAH!! The black bean sauce was en pointe, and the onions and green beans and sides complimented the fish perfectly. My daughter just ordered ulu chips (we all agreed they were delicious) and a fish crudo (also yummy). The boys thought their dishes were meh--son got the fried chicken, hubby got the pasta w/ venison. All in all, it was a pleasant meal. read more

The service was amazing . We started with the ahi crudo with a spicy macadamia nut sauce . It's fresh and fantastic . We then had the He'e Luau and grilled kampachi . Both were delicious . For dessert we had the kiawe brownie with sesame gelato . This was fantastic ! read more

Mud Hen Water has been consistently great. They have various foods, and I enjoy almost all of them. I highly recommend the Beet Poke when available, and the Sausage and Clams. Both are packed with flavor. The fried Ulu (breadfruit) is basically french fries and highlights the possibilities of the local staple. The newcomer, he'e luau replaced the he'e roll, which had more octopus, but the luau is still good. Place is clean and service is good. Hand washing area has some nice historical menus from all over. read more

Food is super fresh, ambience is everything and the service was superb. The crudo was killer!!! The Crocquettes were so good, we had to order another order! Mapo Rice cakes were amazing! The hand cut pasta was our favorite Also had order two orders. The porchetta wasn't our favorite. Lacked flavor and it was tough to eat. Not terrible, but not the fav. We fed five people. $250 with tip. A little expensive for the portion sizes as in "family style" but not terrible. We will be back, but wanting to come back for date night! read more

Had a fabulous delicious meal here!!! My colleague suggested this place and I loved it, had the vibe of a slightly upscale but chill island inspired restaurant.

Mud Hen Water is a wonderful Asian-Island inspired fusion cuisine in a Tapas style bistro on Waialae Ave. it's a gastronomical playland of inspired combinations of spices & ingredients which the zest up traditional Asian & Island flavors. We celebrated a birthday with Handcut Pasta, Sausage & Clams, Mapo Rice Cakes, & Kahala with toasted bread as mains, Roasted 'n Raw Carrots, Local I'a Fresh Catch Crudo, Chicken Long Rice Croquettes, & complementary seasoned eggplant slices for appetizers, & Sweet Land Goat Cheesecake & Miso-Butterscotch Rice Pudding for dessert. All accompanied by a nice Barbera. Everything was amazing & are must try's! The Croquettes, which are balls of Island favorite chicken long rice deep fried into Asian style croquettes & served on a bed of curry were mind blowing delicious. The Mapo was a savory fusion of Chinese style mapo tofu & Korean theokbokki, with a unique blend of chilis & spices that brought umami accents to the palate. The combination of the clams with mild sausages in a rich buttery soup base was a stroke of culinary genius that teased your taste buds relentlessly. The Kampachi was well seasoned & perfectly seared. The Handcut Pasta was one of the best pasta dishes I've had in a while. It was so fresh, perfectly cooked, with the most moist & tender venison ever that wasn't gamey & tasted more like brisket. Mud Water Hen is a casual but upscale bistro with staff who are very friendly & attentive. It was a reasonably priced gastronomical experience for incredible food, ambiance, & great service. read more

Second time coming to mud hen water and it was delicious as always!!! Service is impeccable and quick, the cocktails are delicious and strong, the ambiance is really cute and warm, and the food is uniquely Hawaiian/asian inspired and packed with flavor. Perfect for a date night or nicer dinner with friends. Best to share dishes family style here, waiters can help inform on the number of dishes to order by party size. The price for the quality is really reasonable! Decent amount of vegan/vegetarian options too. The fried ulu appetizer is seriously amazing--lightly airy and crunchy with amazing texture. The mapo tofu rice cake was full with flavor too. read more

5/5, hands down. Great ambiance. Cozy decor. Friendly wait staff. Free neighborhood parking and metered parking are free after 6pm). Fried ulu (bread fruit): comes with kewpie dipping sauce. Tastes like fried yucca/potato and I absolutely enjoy yucca. Would highly recommend this. Okra salad: this one was very tasty and had enough crunch to make the slime. Black sesame seeds added a nice subtle touch. Peanut tofu. This "tofu" is made of 100% peanuts. There is no soy in it. Sauce is sweet. Texture is on the soft side, similar to a panna cotta. read more

When I'm home, I love to make a visit to Mud Hen Water (owned by high school classmate Ed Kenney, always happy to support him by eating delicious food!) We had an outstanding experience, service was amazing, ambiance lovely with sitting inside but near the open space to the outside so we could benefit from the trade winds. - peanut tofu - 4/5, it was delicious and a little hard to eat without a spoon as the tofu was so soft LOL - mapo rice cakes - 4/5, this is basically tteokbokki and had I read the menu more carefully I might not have ordered this because I'm not a huge fan of tteokbokki but the flavors were amazing - chicken long rice croquettes - 5*/5, this was a dish named by the NY Times in 2023 as one of the best 23 dishes in the U.S. and oh my goodness, this was AMAZING! If I could have licked the plate I would have - sausage & clams - 5*/5, I love ong choy and can't get it on the continent so easily, and I am so glad I got this dish! The lemongrass sausage was super tasty, clams plentiful, and the coconut milk We were so full after all of this that we didn't think we could fit in a full dessert but I remembered that I really liked their sesame gelato so we asked if we could have just the gelato and they said yes! YUM! So happy to eat at Mud Hen Water, and while this bonus review isn't reflective of their restaurant menu, I also had the privilege of eating more of Ed Kenney's delicious food at an event at Shangri-La and his variation on kalua pig and cabbage (pork belly chunks) and the lu'au were excellent! as were the vegan donuts for dessert - standout items! read more

Fried ulu, chicken long rice croquette, roasted carrots, he'e luau, hand cut ragu pasta, lemongrass clams & sausage, meatballs, sourdough cornbread. Everything was delectable. Standouts were the clam & sausage, he'e luau and hand cut ragu pasta. Service was friendly without being intrusive. Only wish the lighting was a little brighter as my old eyes struggled a bit. There is a back area with brighter lighting, next time we may request that. Wished we had bigger stomachs or more people so we could have ordered more bc so many dishes on the menu looked tasty! I really enjoyed seeing the John Young artwork on the walls - a mix of his well known horse and children works and some abstract pieces too - such a fantastic local artist. Highly recommend! Parking can be tough but is possible, just may have to walk a little. The parking lot in back is small with only a handful of spaces. read more

Mud Hen Water in Kaimuki was a trendy brunch spot that we enjoyed. We ordered the Luau with over-hard eggs, not my favorite but the hubby liked, we ordered a side of 4 scrambled eggs, two biscuits, and two hot lattes. The biscuits were heavenly soft and yummy, the lattes were also delicious. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the food was pretty good. Our bill was about $80 and we also got to take some nice pics on their cute mirror by entrance . read more

We've been wanting to dine here for quite some time! So happy we finally did to celebrate our Anniversary! The fresh farm to table ingredients burst with flavor with every bite, my favorite had to be the Molokai venison with hand cut pasta! Meat was sooo tender and melted in my mouth. The only dish that was too salty for me was the coconut milk sauce on the clams. Our server greeted us with a smile, and helped us decide on what we should order. Ambiance-wise, we were placed in the back area, what looked like an unfinished "addition" with plywood walls.. I wish the seating was the other way around so that my back wasn't facing the entrance and my front view wasn't the wall. They definitely need to make this space more inviting. IMO. But food over all was fantastic! read more

We love visiting this restaurant in the Kaimuki area which is a cool neighborhood with a community vibe. Close to Waikiki but far enough away....The food is local prepared with their own unique style and flavor. The staff is friendly, welcoming and knows the menu well.

One of our favorite spots in Waialae and definitely our top spot when gathering friends together or celebrating. The ambience is very spacious and inviting, perfect for groups and yet upbeat enough for dates. It's hard to go wrong here, especially if you love or want to be introduced to local cuisine. The fusion style dishes are perfect for people who are new to the islands but also includes so many local favorites for those who have been living here for years. That's why we invite our friends here all the time because we know we can find something they'll love. And they always do. Additionally,the bar is just as creative as the kitchen when it comes to creating fresh new cocktails. Of course, there's beer, too. read more

I came here for a double date on a Saturday. It was to my surprise that this place was not packed because the food was good and the service and ambiance were great as well! It's the four of us so we ordered a bunch of dishes. Our favorite was the long rice croquette in curry sauce! I wish we ordered double of that! We also enjoyed the venison hand cut pasta. It's made al dente with a rich gravy type of sauce and the venison didn't taste gamey at all. We tried the sausage and clams too, but I think the sausage flavor was a bit overpowering for the clams. I would rather have just the clams. As for the Luau stuffed porchetta, I like the Luau part but not so much the pork. I guess I wasn't a big pork fan lol. Overall, the food was great and we had a great night. I would recommend it if you're looking for a place with interesting dishes and a nice atmosphere to dine in. read more

My friends and I came here for an early brunch on a Sunday this month. We were looking for food with an interesting twist. We rsvp'd in advance online. Customer service was friendly. The ambiance was relaxing and not crowded during the time we were there. The restaurant was clean and airy. Food: We ordered a Bali banana pancakes ($13.00), veggie congee ($15.00), and a tofu dish (it was either the Peanut tofu ($13.00) or the Biscuit & Mayo Gravy ($16.00). Overall, we thought everything was good. Perhaps the food can be a little more flavorful. The Bali banana pancakes were the most delicious. I'd give Mud Hen another try of their other items on the menu. read more

Awesome restaurant! Went to The Pig and the Lady the night before and this place we liked a little better. Comfortable dining room, Emma was the perfect server, and the food was excellent! The tequila, calamansi cocktail was perfect. Hard to pick a highlight for the food because we loved it all. The amuse bouche was a nice surprise. We had the Roasted and Live carrots, the chicken and long rice croquettes with Japanese curry, the crudo with cucumber and the perfect chili crisp, the sausage and clams with some delicious bread in the side, and the octopus roll. Would recommend any and all of those dishes. We will definitely return. read more

This restaurant came highly recommended by a colleague who lived on O'ahu for many years. Therefore, I jumped at the chance to dine where the locals eat away from the bright lights of Waikiki. This neighborhood spot located in a charming thoroughfare off of Waialae is my favorite type of place to dine: It is equal parts charming, down-to-earth, and honors those who farmed/raised/caught the food. Dinner started with an amuse bouche of incredibly fresh local ingredients atop cucumber. For my starter, I had the crudo. The fish was caught that morning by the fish monger who also happens to work in the kitchen per waitstaff. It was a Hawaiian fish I've never had before, and it was incredibly fresh and paired well with the cilantro and crispy cucumber. The chili sauce was akin to chili oil from dim sum restaurants - sweet, salty, and spicy all harmoniously together. Next I had the grilled octopus. It sat in stewed lu'au with coconut milk. It reminded me of my favorite curries, and the octopus was perfectly cooked. And for my main, I had the J. Ludovico friend chicken. It came with this salsa verde resembling a chimichurri with amazing house pickles that cut through the fried goodness. I rounded the evening off with their delectable umeboshi (pickled Japanese plum) sorbetto. The waitstaff knew where everything was sourced and were incredibly friendly. I cannot praise Mud Hen Water enough because it serves incredibly refined comfort food that's thoughtfully and ethically sourced. I look forward to returning and trying out more from their ever-changing seasonal menu on my next Hawaiian holiday. Mahalo! read more

If you lived mainland for a bit and came back home, you'll instantly get it And what I mean by get it is exactly that - everything feels so foreign and so familiar at the same time The menu has all kinds of local catch and produce yet arranged in dishes that seem "new" For example the porchetta lu'au, sounds like a strange twist, presented well, then when I bit into it I instantly understood - a deconstructed laulau to give the local favorite much more texture. Meaty pork bites near the center with that fatty almost chicharron crunch on the outside Pair that with the more "fancy" ambiance yet served with chopsticks and mini tongs (only in hawaii do I ever use these to serve food or flip kalbi on the grill) It was an interesting dinner, one I won't forget read more
