This is my second time coming here and the first time I had a lot of negatives to say. This time I feel I have to give a more raving review. The place is running more efficiently and seems to be managed more effectively. The service was great, the food came out quickly and was great, and of course, the views and ... ambiance are always great. This was on a Saturday night too, so I am definitely impressed with how busy it was getting, but everyone seemed well taken care of and constantly checked in on. Kudos to you LookOut staff and management; my expectations were exceeded ๐ซกโ๐ฝ๐ค๐ฝ Read More

We came here for my daughter's graduation party and reserved seats for 15 people at 1pm. It was everyone's first time visiting this place except for me. When we arrived, there weren't many people around. There were only a few using the water obstacle and the surf pool was not operational when we arrived. The price was ... reasonable and they had a great selection of options. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive, and the desserts were delicious. The only feedback I received from my family was that some of the food was a bit salty. On the positive side, the restrooms were super clean. Everyone was happy and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful view. I had previously visited this place at night with my colleagues, where we had seats with a great view. We were able to watch people flowboarding while enjoying live music. I will definitely come back again, and next time we might try their picnicbana or the water obstacle. Read More

The LookOut Restaurant at Wai Kai: A Must-Visit for Views, Vibes & Great Food! The LookOut at Wai Kai in Ewa Beach is truly a gem, offering an experience beyond just a meal. This is the place to be if you're looking for a vibrant atmosphere, delicious food, and incredible views. What immediately strikes you is the ... stunning ambiance. Perched right over the Wai Kai Wave, you get a front-row seat to watch surfers ride the artificial wave, which is surprisingly captivating and adds a unique energy to the dining experience. The open-air setting and modern decor perfectly blend with the beautiful Hawaiian surroundings, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe. The food at The LookOut consistently impresses. Their menu offers a great selection of elevated American and local Hawaiian favorites. Highlights for us included cheeseburgers with fries, kalbi, and spicy edamame. For drinks, we had virgin pina coladas all tasted delicious. The staff were friendly. Read More

Surfโs up from the window seats at this cool restaurant. Watch surfers ride waves all night as you enjoy cold drinks, ono local food and live music in a casual atmosphere. Friendly service and lots of space to hang out around the bar or at tables. Plus lots of free parking. Weโll be back. ๐ค๐ผ๐ค๐ผ๐ค๐ผ
