Top 10 Waikiki Restaurants With A View
"Sheraton Waikiki’s ultra-chic RumFire serves Pacific and Hawaiian flavors that pair well with their excellent drink menu. They emphasize healthy local ingredients and sharable plates that create a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere on the gorgeous oceanfront patio (at least before it switches into nightclub mode). Plates run between $15 and $30 dollars, though there is also a “Keiki” menu with options between $10 and $12 for children under 12-years-old."

"The local-ingredient-focused izakaya Zigu is a collection of spaces, with high tops near the entrance, a private room in the back and prized counter seating where you can watch the chefs create artful plates. This is why even regulars may be surprised to find there’s a courtyard that runs the length of it all.
