Senia

Top choice in Honolulu


Electricity, buzz, whatever, you'll feel the energy as you enter one of the city's most innovative restaurants. It's not big, so book. Once seated you'll get the ever-changing one-sided menu. The food is local, fresh and defines creative. Don't miss seemingly mundane fare such as charred cabbage. The service, cocktails and wine list all excel.

Each night there are eight seats available for the extraordinary chef's table experience ($195, 6:30pm), which includes a kitchen-side perch as the chefs create dishes for you on the spot. Bookings open 60 days in advance and go quick.
