The food was fantastic and the desert to die for. They have very unique and interesting dishes. Our waitress was named Alyssa. We were there on 25 Apr 2026 after a long visit at Kualoa Ranch. One of our drivers recommended crouching tiger to us. Glad he did. Views from our main dining were of the ocean was fantastic. Drinks were perfect too. Overall, it's a "Don't Miss" for all Kailua Coast visitors. Thank you CROUCHING TIGER. Loved the entire restaurant and bar. Clean bathrooms. Yay. We will all return. We had a table of 7, with 2 children. Everyone loved it. Alyssa was perfect with everyone. Great waitress. Keep her if you can. read more

We ate there last night. The view was gorgeous and the grilled food was delicious. The food is set up to share. The ambiance was overshadowed by the loudness of the music. The waitress struggled to hear our order! We could not have a conversation. We asked more than once for the volume to be turned down, but nothing changed. It wasn't the servers fault, but someone at the management level. read more

East Fusion Love any excuse to drive out here (: Restaurant entrance is on the left when facing the building - opposite end of the cafe. Breezy open air seating that overlooks out to the sea. . First time visiting and pleasantly surprised with the Korean based cuisine! -Prime brisket tacos - not too oily and are large enough to be a meal on its own. But beware the red jalapeños, they're deadly! - Hamachi kama - good, standard sized portion and taste. - Clams and focaccia bread - bread was amazingly fluffy, light but with a nice thin crunchy crust. Clams sat in wonderful garlic butter - tho I do wish they arrived pre-chucked. - Uni pasta - served with buckwheat noodles was a nice change! It enriched the blends of flavor of the thick uni cut toppings, cream sauce, and dabbles of ikura that gave a salty burst in each bite. - Peach Makgeoli ...the sweet sparkling beverage itself is wayy overpriced and not worth it. but I love the pretty carafe and matching cups it comes in - it gave an attempted perception of looking traditional despite serving a very modernized fizzy drink -- just saying. . Good service and the restaurant was very responsive on OpenTable when I contacted them about our late arrival. It also wasn't too crowded considering it was Mother's Day. Despite the ocean breeze - food by the beach will naturally attract flies. There wasn't plenty but it took small efforts to protect our meal from unwanted landings. Overall, an experience worth driving to. (: read more

Food was pretty good. I especially liked the wonton chips (free seasoned wonton chips with your meal!). The fries were my favorite and came with even more wonton chips. Tacos used flour tortilla instead of corn, which is not my personal preference. My boyfriend added an extra taco (order comes with 3) and it was $9 yeah Hawai'i is expensive but $9 felt steep for a single taco. Service was great. Very nice and they even gave us these red bean balls as a gift when we were leaving! Establishment was made up of 3 sections I think so there's something for everyone. Outdoor dining had lots of flies though but there's an electric fan-like item to deter them read more

The Crouching Lion - Tacos and fries - Beer Bar Near Me - Kaaawa, Hawaii

I've always enjoyed bringing family and friends to Crouching Lion for lunch or dinner. It's a great alternative to dining in Waikiki, and in the past the food, service, and overall vibe have usually been very good. Unfortunately, tonight's experience fell short of what we've come to expect. We made reservations online and arrived on time, but after checking in we were asked to wait while being told we would be seated shortly. During that time, another group of six arrived without reservations and was seated before us, even though we could clearly see our table was already available. As locals, it gave the impression that tourists were being prioritized over repeat local customers. I completely understand how important visitors are to businesses, but locals are often the ones who continue supporting a restaurant year after year. Our server started off great and was friendly throughout the meal, but after we finished eating he seemed to disappear for quite a while. We waited so long that we eventually decided to skip dessert by the time he returned. The food was mixed tonight. Most dishes were tasty, but the items from the Robata Grill -- including the scallops, mushrooms, and pork belly -- arrived cold, which was disappointing for grilled items. This review reflects tonight's experience only. I've had many good visits here before and I'll definitely return, hoping things get back to the solid 4-5 star experiences I've enjoyed in the past. read more

The drive here was gorgeous. We arrived right before sunset and had a beautiful view next to the e water. Service was stellar. Its served family/tapas style so we werent sure exactly how much to order for two people but were guided to try a few things from different sections of the menu. Food comes out as its ready and everything was a hit! Our only wish was that we came with more people so we could have ordered more menu items to try! Come hungry and try it all! read more

AMAZING food, service and ambience!! From the breathtaking views, food bursting with flavor and the exceptional service from our server, Joselyn, we were blown away. I would describe the menu as a shareable/familiy style menu. We ordered quite a bit, but it was all worth it. What we ordered: * Ribeye Streak * Scallops * Lobster tail * Steamed clams with focaccia bread * Fried Rice Everything was cooked to perfection. My favorites were the steamed clams and the fried rice. 10 Stars! read more

I was really hoping that my experience here would be great as my brother recommended that we go here tonight as their family really likes this restaurant. Some red flags happen as we walked in to check in for our reservation. We were asked to wait to on the side as a party entered after us with no reservations. They were seated right away as there were many open tables at 6:00 pm. We were later seated after them to a table toward the back of the restaurant. Receptionists did not once say anything why we were not seated first as our table was available, but the other thing we all noticed is that she did not once greet us or smiled. Someone in our party made a comment that it's because we are locals and the group after us was obviously tourist. I really hope this is not the case as I feel that locals are the backbone that will sustain a restaurant during low travel seasons. Our waiter Brian was very friendly as he took our order and made great recommendations. Unfortunately I feel they might have been short staffed as he was quite busy and could not check on us. We received some of our dishes but the dishes we ordered from the grill did not arrive too much later. You could also tell that they had been sitting for a while as they came out cold. This was really tough as I was most excited to eat the grilled scallops and grilled pork belly. We also had an issue with fly's all night. Hopefully they can do something about that. We were initially going to try some desserts but after waiting for another 15-20 minutes we decided not to. I do like the fact that randomly their manager Stephanie came by and asked how things were as she saw us just sitting and waiting around. I explained that the flavors were great but the execution and service lacked some. She seemed very concerned and noted that she appreciated the criticism as she would like to address those issues. Because my brother really likes the restaurant and I grew up in Kahaluu, I hope to give them another try with a different experience. read more

This is a good restaurant, although admittedly the only one I've been to on the Northeast side of Oahu. It's got great views and food - my wife and I tried the Wagyu Slides, Brisket Tacos, and the Volcano Brisket Fries. My favorite was the Volcano Brisket Fries, large portion and great taste, with the won ton chips adding some additional structure and making it easy to grab the ingrediments. The Brisket Taco was good, and despite the pepper in my photo, wasn't too hot (although it does have a lil' kick). Wagyu Slider was good, the pickled stuff added a nice touch. There's an attached coffee spot as well. The one knock against this place was that there were some flies hanging around, despite the fan-shoo-away things they had on the table--but for the food, service, and vibes, definitely on point and would recommend trying this place out if you're in the area. read more

Went on a weekday on Tuesday and it wasn't busy at all. We were able to sit by the ocean view but it was raining so we moved closer to the middle. I ordered the volcano nachos and the brisket roll. My favorite here is their brisket, so I wanted to try their other brisket items. When we got them, it was delicious! I wish there was a bit more sauce on the nachos, but I asked for some on the side to dip the fries in. The roll was very good too and each part paired well together. I would return again for their brisket. Our server was very nice and attentive and I enjoyed the dinner! read more

Crouching Lion on Oahu is one of those places where the view alone makes it worth the visit -- but the food holds its own too. We went for lunch and sat on the patio, which overlooks the ocean and is absolutely beautiful. It's such a relaxing setting and perfect for taking in the scenery while you eat. The vibe during lunch was very casual. Some people were dressed up, but you definitely don't need to feel obligated to do the same. If you want a table closest to the very edge of the patio, I'd recommend making a reservation ahead of time. That said, the views are great from pretty much anywhere outside. We ordered the bulgogi kimbap roll, scallion pancakes, and mandu. Everything was really flavorful and perfect for sharing. Portion sizes were okay -- not huge, but enough for a light lunch. There's a small parking lot on-site, which can fill up, so just keep that in mind depending on when you go. It is definitely on the pricier side, but honestly that's pretty expected for Hawaii, especially at a place with views like this. I'd absolutely come back. Between the incredible ocean views and the solid food, it's a great spot to stop if you're exploring that side of the island read more

The ceviche is absolutely amazing. The serving portion is very small, but worth trying! The service is really good as well. We did not have a reservation, but asked if we could be seated facing the ocean, and they were able to accommodate us. I think it is a great place for a nice dinner with friends or a date. At least two birthday parties were going on while I was there. read more

****This is an update to my initial review on Feb 14, 2026*** So after 3 months we were able to visit the restaurant. Reservations were made and we were set. It was Mother's Day weekend. We arrived a few minutes early and was warmly greeted by the host. I was given a chocolate rose and a special treat that was made by the restaurant. We order the preset meal, The Crouching Lion Feast. I highly recommend if you are not sure what to order. The atmosphere was amazing. We were seated near the bar area which was perfect. Noise level was just right. The food was delicious as always. The live music was great amazing. My initial complaint isn't about the food or the ambiance. It was more on how things were handled when the restaurant didn't have power and the lack of communication that they were closed. We drove for about an hour just to get to the restaurant, as we live on the west side of the island. There are a couple things I would suggest. 1) Investing in some generators. So that you would have a way to still serve patrons that come from afar. 2) Find an alternate way to better communicate when an unplanned situation occurs. It was unfortunate that the unforeseen circumstances had occurred, but CUSTOMER SERVICE is a big thing for me. My work experience has me face-to-face with customers on a daily and I've learned that no matter the situation you are faced with, it is always go to make the customer feel at ease. read more

Great service and scenic view! The oysters were so fresh! Highly recommend the scallion pancakes and edamame. I was a little disappointed with the scallops. They tasted like they were cooked in the same pan/grill as burgers and the texture was chewier than I'd like. Other than that, everything was amazing! For two people, we spend just under $200. read more

The food was unfortunately not good. We got the bulgogi roll and one of the other ahi sushi rolls and they were super bland. We didn't have much of it. The Wagyu sliders to start were at least alright. View is gorgoues but the outside was not the best maintained and had a funky smell. Wanted to love this place so badly because I picked specific spots for our Hawaii trip but I'm not sure if we maybe just didn't order the right thing or what happened but both our rolls were disappointing. read more

Such an incredible place. The location backing to the pali and facing the ocean makes for phenomenal views. We were seated near the railing so we had great ocean views. Our waiter Anthony was great. He informed us of their menu and was great at keeping our drinks fresh, water filled and the sharable food items coming. We ordered ribeye, scallops, spicy tuna sushi and asparagus and we shared it all between us. Everything was cooked to perfection. The highlight was ordering the mango bingsu for dessert. Oh wow! We will definitely be back. read more

The MOST delicious and flavorful loaded fries I have ever had. The meat was spectacular, very lean and full of flavor. The service was excellent and the cider was good!

The Crouching Lion was 10/10 experience. The vibe was so cute, all decorated for Christmas, with a killer view of the ocean. We had the Santa Sangria to start. Delicious and sweet. Then we ordered share plates of crunchy ahi, crunchy salmon, brisket tacos and volcano fries. All were seriously so satisfying and plenty to go around between the four of us. We were also celebrating a birthday and an upcoming deployment. The staff surprised us with a sweet chocolate ice cream dish to share as well as a candle and a sweet, sweet serenade from the live music artist they had that night. It was definitely an incredible experience and we can't wait to dine here again. read more

The location is breath taking, by being right on the ocean. I'd recommend going before sunset. The ambiance is very nice, it's clean and very aesthetic. We had a bday party for my wife.

I would definitely go back with friends. read more

This restaurant was on my list of places to check out forever but I never made the trek from town until I pulled out the "it's my birthday and I want to go here so please drive me so I can drink and enjoy" card out. The view is pretty during the day but there's nothing but darkness outside of you go at night. It's a pretty large place so we were able to get a table for 3 as a walk in. The servers are very nice and attentive. The hostess gave me a chocolate rose as a birthday gift. The chefs and bartenders know what they're doing. The food was yummy! Everything we tried was delicious and nicely plated. It should be for the price point! My favorite dish was the wagyu beef larb which we ate with the complimentary freshly fried won ton chips. 'Ono!! The sushi roll sampler was a nice way to try their different sushi rolls. It wasn't the best sushi but it was good. I'd skip this next time tho. The Karaage chicken was wonderful. Big portion, yummy sauce, hot and crispy. read more

Great views, but the food leaves more to be desired. This restaurant is located along Kamehameha Highway facing the water. It's located right next to "The Collection," a building showcasing cars and motorcycles, which also belongs to the owner of The Crouching Lion. We came in on a weekend for lunch and it wasn't busy at all, and we were able to be seated quite promptly! We ordered the CL bruschetta, which was essentially crispy rice with toppings of raw fish, as well as the rose tteokbokki carbonara. I think it took around 30 minutes for our food to come out. The bruschetta was an interesting concept, though it was rather oily and I got tired of the taste/texture by the second piece. I liked the rose tteokbokki the most, though the dish was quite expensive for the portion size and just being rice cakes and sauce. I likely would not come back since I didn't really enjoy the food, but if you wanted a scenic view while eating lunch or dinner, this is definitely an option! read more

The restaurant itself is very nice. I enjoyed the location and the interior decors. As for the food, I thought it was only okay. The best thing I ate was definitely the order of beef kalbi with a side of plain white rice. The meat was a bit tough, but the flavors were really good. However, I can't give it a higher rating because of the service. Although our server was very enthusiastic and friendly, he completely forgot one of our orders, did not check on us, and completely disappeared for long time periods during our visit. read more

We did not have a reservation, so we waited which was expected. Asked host if we can sit another area and was told that the server in that area was overwhelmed so we couldn't. Understood that can happen, however still questioned the statement. Sat down placed order for drinks and food. This is where I have the problem, each item was brought out one at a time. First the fries (amazing) then asparagus, then 1/2 DZ oysters...but no salmon roll. Waited...waited and waited, no update not even checking in to see how the rest of service/food was. We were overlooked. Caught another server attention and began to speak with her, that's when our server ran up to us. I asked him we waited for almost 30 minutes on a single roll. He ran in the back to "check" on it, but saw him twice taking care of other customers. I finally said give me the bill so I can leave and eat elsewhere. I just wanted some kind of acknowledgement but received none. read more

It's a bit far, but it was worth the drive. Nestled right on the side of the Crouching Lion hike, it had a beautiful view of the ocean, would definitely recommend coming in the day for the view. We came as a walk-in on a Wednesday evening around 5:30 and was seated within 20min. Our server was great, she made great recommendations, was very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered the Bulgogi Kimbap, Spicy cucumbers, wagyu sliders, volcanic loaded brisket fries, classic mandu, and uni pasta. This was more than enough for two people to share and the food was so good. My husband really enjoyed the spicy cucumbers, volcano fries and the wagyu sliders. My favorite was the uni pasta. Will definitely be back to try other foods on the menu. The atmosphere was nice, there was live music being played, the server checked in on us in a timely manner and the whole staff was great. read more

We had such a wonderful experience at Crouching Lion. The view was absolutely amazing -- overlooking the ocean with the mountains as a breathtaking backdrop. It's one of those spots where the scenery alone makes the visit worthwhile. The service made it even better. Our server was so sweet and friendly, which really added to the overall experience. The food was delicious and beautifully prepared. The spicy cucumber dish was refreshing, though not as spicy as expected -- which may actually be perfect for those who prefer mild heat. Overall, great food, warm service, and unforgettable views. We'll definitely be back. read more

Off of Kamehameha hwy this spot has amazing vibe, interior and menu. Draws are definitely the location with beautiful beach view, interior design and great food and drink options, definitely maximized on the cute lion merch. Cute little photo op sections. Service was a little slow but friendly also assuming they are short staffed. Menu items are all shareable and varied between appetizers to grilled items. We started with bloody Mary, macadamia mai tai refreshing and mai tai was strong yet delicious. Kim chee fried rice, volcano fries, grilled squid and oysters. Everything was delicious main star was the grilled squid with garlic. Kim chee rice was perfectly cooked nice pieces of pork belly, oysters fresh, volcano fries loaded with brisket.

Everything about this place was perfect. I enjoyed each dish we tried and was a big fan of the atmosphere. The food was more than I had expected and I am so thankful we drove from Wai'anae over to the east side for this menu and experience. The wonton chips were crispy, and I can't place the flavors but they were a touch of spicy and sweet. Great to snack on while checking the menu. We started with a shareable drink that was light, crisp and refreshing called Makgeolli Peach Sharable Spritz. Highly recommend this cocktail. No usually go to mai tai or margarita for me tonight. This was just what I needed. The oysters are from Seattle and they are almost as amazing as being at Elliot's in Seattle. Don't get the half; get the bakers dozen or you will be sad and want more. I asked for something spicy besides the horse radish, and had the spicy chili oil which was a nice touch with the shoyu and lemon. My first time ever eating scallops so I am not sure how to rate them but they had a meaty yet tender texture. They were buttery and delicious. The sauce I had been worried about since I am not a wasabi fan but it was light and not over powering. The Ribeye was tender, juicy and flavorful. Perfectly cooked and cut pupu style. Spicy ahi roll, inside out or something, yum! Loved it. Our waitress Ka'imi was exceptional. As a newer employee, she knew what's dishes were popular and what other guests enjoyed so she was able to recommend and knock our restaurant experience out of the park. I couldn't have asked for a more attentive and kind waitress. We also had a younger gentleman fill our water who was kind and attentive as well but I forgot to grab his name but we chatted about the beaches on the west side briefly. read more

I was having such a hard time trying to find a place for rehearsal dinner that would be close enough to the venue AND would host 19 people. I reached out and Stephanie was amazing to communicate with. When we got there the electricity went completely out and they had some lamps to put around the table. I really felt bad for my photographer because bad lighting sucks. But the service here was absolutely amazing. Even with zero electricity they were able to serve a 4 course meal and it was alll so freakin good. We decided to come back for dinner the night before we left and it was good. The nachos or whatever they were , had such great flavor. I would skip on the pasta - we didn't love it. Also every dish on our menu for the rehearsal was amazing read more

My cousins were in town, so we did the classic island cruise and made a lunch stop at the newly reopened Crouching Lion. After being closed for over a decade, this spot reopened May 2024 under new ownership. It's much bigger than before . What used to be a small restaurant with a gift shop on the side is now a really big restaurant. The entire space itself is smartly designed to showcase the beautiful ocean views. The layout feels ready-made for big events like weddings, company parties, etc... The setup is pretty cool with two kitchens, one dedicated to robata grilling and the other handling regular dishes and a raw bar. The menu leans Korean with splashes of Japanese influence and a few local twists thrown in. The food? A bit of a roller coaster with some hits, some misses, and a few in-betweens. * The Scallion Pancakes with Octopus were the unanimous favorite. Crispy, flaky, packed with flavor. * Kalbi Ribs delivered too: smoky, garlicky, exactly what you want from Kalbi. * Duck Breast Lemongrass Butter Confit... not so much. Four tiny cubes of chewy, bland duck with zero lemongrass flavor for $26. Gonna pass on it next time. * Brisket Taco Reverse Roll was a mixed bag: tender, flavorful brisket but the rice was soft and almost mushy. Texturally not a good mouthfeel. Service was excellent. Our server, Josie, was on top of it. Friendly, attentive, and professional. A bit on the pricey side but we would come back on our next island tour. It's a nice stop between town and the North Shore with beautiful views, solid service, and enough menu intrigue to give it another go. Happy Eating!! read more

I'm a foodie that will travel for food and this place was worth the trek. I did the Crouching Lion feast and had the pleasure of being served by Joshua Winder. Joshua was great, personable and very passionate about what he was serving (he too is a foodie and appreciates delicious noms)! The feast is definitely worth it. It was all good but the salmon, bbq and Shiitake mushrooms really stood out for me. As if 12 courses wasn't enough, they then bring you coffee and dessert!

We came to Crouching Lion after visiting Kualoa Ranch, and it was the perfect way to end the day. We got there around 5 pm, which turned out to be a great time -- not too busy yet, but you could see it starting to fill up later. First off, the ambience. This is one of those rare spots outside Honolulu/ Waikiki where the atmosphere actually feels thoughtfully put together. It's not just the amazing ocean view -- they've got flowers, a fountain at the entrance, nice lighting, and everything felt clean and welcoming. Definitely more "special night out" vibes than your average countryside restaurant. We had kids with us (a toddler and a 10-year-old), and I loved how they treated families. Crayons and coloring sheets came right away, and the kids' meals were served in little toy cars -- a hit. Food-wise: * Oysters: pricey (around $50 for 13), but fresh, tasty, and came with two sauces to try. * Sliders: just okay * Tacos: amazing * Mocktail (virgin piña colada): fine, nothing special, but they do have a full cocktail menu if you're drinking. * Dessert: the star of the night. The crème brûlée (made with Hawaiian-grown coffee) was outstanding. One of the best I've ever had, and I've had my fair share, even in France. Perfectly crunchy caramelized top, smooth custard with a subtle coffee twist. Expensive at $20, but worth it. * Ice cream was $8 a scoop, which felt a little too steep for what it was. Overall, this is not a budget dinner spot, but if you're looking for a memorable, sit-down meal with great views and nice ambience -- especially after doing something nearby like Kualoa Ranch -- it really hits the mark. read more

We stopped by The Crouching Lion after a day at Kualoa Ranch, absolutely famished. A friend in our group knows the family who owns the restaurant, so we made it a point to visit. And we're so glad we did! Everything was amazing. The space is stunning, right by the water with incredible ocean views, and the portions are generous and perfect for sharing. We left feeling completely stuffed and so happy. *COCKTAILS We loved every drink we tried: the 100% Kona Espresso Martini, Mokoli'i Yuzu Express, and the Highball. Each one was smooth, balanced, and beautifully made. KAHANA POKE Wow, off to a great start. It was so fresh, with the right amount of shoyu to marinate the ahi tuna. The presentation is gorgeous with the microgreens. KIMCHI FRIED RICE A huge and satisfying portion. Comforting, flavorful, and so fulfilling. It had this really great smoky Chipotle like flavor. ***UNI PASTA Obsessed. The creamy mushroom sauce paired perfectly with the salty-sweet ikura and rich uni. The noodles were the perfect texture. It seriously vanished within seconds. Our favorite dish of the day! FRIES WITH HONEY AIOLI Crispy, golden, and perfect for sharing. The honey aioli is a standout. **OYSTER ON THE HALF SHELL Absolutely gorgeous. Fresh, buttery, and possibly the best oysters I've ever had. *SCALLION PANCAKES So light and crispy, with bits of squid throughout for texture and flavor. The dipping sauce complemented it perfectly, just the right hint of spice. **LARB Delicious and balanced. Generous portions with simple, fresh ingredients and bold flavor. The spice level was perfect, and the fresh lettuce for wraps made it even better. Highly recommend adding it on. ***CRISPY SALMON BELLY Incredible. Perfectly crisp on the outside, tender on the inside. You won't even need a knife. The spiced soy sauce took it to another level. I really hope they make this a permanent menu item! read more
