Chef Chai

Fantastic dining experience with an amazing wait staff led by our server Kristy who was attentive, courteous and knowledgeable. The Hokkaido scallops were delicious especially the lobster reduction. And the crispy whole fresh red snapper in chili garlic sauce was juicy and crunchy with succulent meat. We highly recommend Chef Chai to celebrate a special occasion with a very memorable dining experience.

First time at Chef Chai's. We were very impressed from start to finish. We had a family birthday and had reservation for an early Sunday dinner. The had a early bird special that offered a great variety to choose from. My wife chose the salmon and I had the Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Mushroom Foie Gras Puff. You get a awesome 5 item appetizers something for everyone. Desert is also part of the early bird special a Heart Shaped White Chocolate Gelato with Fresh Raspberry Guava Puree. We will definitely be back to try the regular menu.

The experience in a whole was amazing! It was the best part of my day, great way to end my Birthday celebration. All the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and kind. The desert was complimentary for my birthday and the wine was recommended, after explaining what I was interested in having, and turned out to be the perfect find. I had the Oxtail as my main course and it was so amazing! I honestly get it on every yearly visit from another subsidiary location but chose here this one time due to the other location discontinuing the dish. It was even better (tasted just as great, but larger portion) than I remember from previous years. From the starter tray there was a peanut sauce I will return specifically for next year! Love it!

Went to this lovely restaurant to celebrate my 21st birthday and it was perfect. The food was amazing as well as the drinks and the service. Everything that we ordered was cooked and seasoned to perfection, and the drinks were very tasty as well (including the mocktails!) Robert Cazimero performed live on the piano with some hula dancers, and it was beautiful. I really couldn't have asked for a more perfect birthday. There was valet parking for $7 I believe, and even they were so sweet. I will definitely be coming back to Chef Chai's for my next celebration! Thank you to everyone who made my 21st so memorable :)

We happened upon Chef Chai when our docent at the Honolulu museum of Art suggested we celebrate our anniversary there. A quick Google and we made reservations for the Early Bird dinner. We found Chef Chai to be an easy stroll from the Art Museum. We got there exactly on time 4 pm, at there opening. We were first in line. They showed us to our table. It was so easy they have a Per Fixe special. All we needed to do was to choose our entree from a short list. Then the Amazing culinary extravaganza began! The service was perfect, the ambience was modern, the bathrooms were gorgeous, and my wife was beautiful. When you make your reservation tell them Joe sent you...they will say Joe Who...that's me 😀
