Restaurants near Honolulu International Airport

We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. The food was excellent. There were quite a few things to choose from so instead of ordering 1 or 2 appetizers, we started with what amounted to a sampler platter containing dips including hummus, baba ganush, and few others, as well as spanakopita and su borek (cheses between layers of flaky pastry). There was a large pide (flatbread) accompanying this platter which was fresh from the oven. Everything on the platter was nicely seasoned but not too spicy. We asked the wait staff for suggestions as to how to not over-order, and they suggested splitting 2 additional entrees between the 3 of us. That worked out just great. They also said that the cauliflower shawarma normally comes with pide but that it would be easier to share if it came with rice and that change was spot on. The shawarma was nicely seasoned and the sauce complimented it well. The lamb shish kabob was equally well seasoned, and was accompanied by a nice tzatziki sauce. We had concert tickets and told the staff we had to be out by 6:30 and we were out by exactly 6:30. Ambient noise level was modest. We could carry on a conversation easily. Didn't ask my friends how their drinks were, but my chardonnay was very nice. Only negative was that we did ask for an extra half pide and never got it. By the time we realized it was not coming, we were all pretty full, so I didn't ask about it. Because we were time-limited, we didn't order dessert of coffee (to my disappointment as the baklava with pistachio ice cream looked delicious--maybe next time).

we love Moku's and always bring our out-of-town/off-island friends...great food and awesome location. Love the Mai Tai's...great after dinner dessert!

Amazing as always, highly recommend the soft serve swirl and the shave ice as the perfect ending to the meal!

The ambience of the restaurant is very lively and fun. One bartender was unfriendly and rude but other people especially one lady who served us was very nice and kind so overall we enjoyed our experience. The quality of food is OK. If you like lively ambience with good drinks and casual food, in downtown, this is a good place to go. If you want good quality quiet dinner, this is not the place.

Overall, a great experience with wonderful local food.
