E-mail pageLa Mer
$$$$, French, Waikiki
User Rating: ***** 4.6
Fodor's Review:
La Mer, like the hotel in which it's housed (Halekulani, "House Befitting Heaven"), is pretty much heavenly. The softly lighted, low-ceiling room has its windows open to the breeze, the perfectly framed vista of Diamond Head, and the faint sound of music from a courtyard below. The food captures the rich and yet sunny flavors of the south of France in one tiny, exquisite course after another. We recommend the degustation menu; place yourself in the sommelier's hands for wine choices from the hotel's exceptional cellar.

La Mer has a lovely ambience and relaxed servers - a bit too relaxed. We're all for laid back, but our dinner took 4 hours and was too long between courses. (we had the degustation menu) The service took so long, we ran out of wine and had to order another half bottle. This added considerably to the bill. The food was excellent and well presented, and we liked the champagne to start, but we've had better. We thought it was over priced compared to other high end dining experiences we've had in North America. Worth a trip, but slow and overpriced.RATING: 3.4
So memorable!!

Exceptional. We ended up having dinner here twice during our stay. The food, service, staff, etc... was just excellent. The view is probably the best you will receive in Honolulu. Very romantic. I can not say anything negative when it comes to this restaurant. You pay for you get.RATING: 5.0
