Aloha and welcome to Royal Hawaiian Fire Grill in Laguna Beach! Truly an iconic grand dame since its opening in 1947, The Royal Hawaiian has recently enjoyed a renovation (she prefers we call it her "spa day") with her new owners and operators, internationally renowned chefs, Chef Martin Molteni and Chef Mariano (Maro) Molteni.

Experience a warm and breezy vibe with a masterful menu that marries our original Polynesian vibe with global coastal culinary. And be sure to book your most memorable group events for corporate, wedding and get togethers for families and friends.

We're all about making our locals and traveling neighbors our "ohana" family, so be sure to stop in to The Royal Hawaiian in its own "island paradise" of beautiful Laguna Beach.

Sat forever without any service. no one knew if we had been waited on, extremely loud, drunks everywhere. I could go on but that is enough to say I will never return.

Excellent food. Enjoyed my Blue Hawaiian cocktail. Would recommend Hawaiian, Beach boys, surf music for the ambiance. The hostess mentioned the restaurant would be moving because the property owner will develop the property. We hope to dine here again should they move to a new location.

The place was really busy. The cook and waitstaff were rushing to the tables. Felt Like we were abandoned at times. The cook was sweaty when he brought out our food. I got covid after this visit. It may have been from him or the kitchen staff.
