Island Flavours, Local Ingredients & Honolulu Food Culture
Dining in Honolulu is shaped by the islands themselves. The city’s food scene blends Native Hawaiian traditions, plantation-era influences, and generations of multicultural cooking into a style that’s uniquely local.
From fresh island produce and seafood to comforting classics inspired by home kitchens across Oʻahu, local food is about simplicity, flavour, and community. It’s the kind of cooking that reflects everyday life in Hawaiʻi, relaxed, generous, and deeply rooted in place.
At Pagoda Hotel, our on-site dining is inspired by this same spirit. Our kitchen celebrates island flavours and local favourites, creating dishes that feel familiar to Kamaʻāina and welcoming to visitors experiencing Honolulu for the first time.
Whether you’re starting your day with breakfast before heading out to explore, or enjoying a slow morning during a staycation, our restaurant offers a taste of Honolulu’s food culture right here at the hotel.
It’s dining that feels local, approachable, and unmistakably Hawaiʻi.
