I was there for dinner with my son on Wednesday. The quality of food positively surprised me. It is top notch, on par with Four Seasons restaurants. The menu is pretty extensive and the wine list have some amazing and rare choices. I got a Brut Zero Champagne for dinner. Also Hearts of Palms - is a must! Absolutely amazing (we ordered a 2nd portion). And be careful with desserts - the portions are pretty big. At 6-00pm they started live music outside. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays, and they have Taco Tuesdays- with Taco menu. The service is great - very friendly and welcoming. We definitely will be back! So if you are on Lanai, do not overthink it - just go there, and you won't be sorry.

We arrived after-hours to Hotel Lana'i on Christmas Day and had to self check-in as the front desk was already closed. Christian and team, who operate the onsite restaurant which was already closed for the day, noticed and kindly came out to check if we needed any help. When we sheepishly asked if the kitchen was still open (despite it being evidently closed), Christian offered to fire up some burgers upon thoughtfully noticing that my wife was pregnant - which just so coincidentally was what she had been craving all day. .. And what a meal it was! The thoughtfulness of Christian and team was expressed throughout the meal, in the homemade toasted bun and smashed ground beef patties. The thick patties were flavorful and had a satisfying chew in every bite. The salad was crisp, fresh and served with a heap of croutons. The shoestring fries were generously portioned and well-prepped, such that they were not too greasy or salted. We cannot thank Chef Christian and team enough for comforting two hungry travelers upon our arrival in Lana'i, even though they were well within reason to turn us away. What made everything even better is that they served up, on especially short notice, one of the best meals we have had on our trip in Hawai'i so far. Christmas truly came alive at Lanai City Bar & Grill tonight, as we turn in with our hearts and stomachs full.

I had the fish sando with a side of potato spuds. The fish of the day was ahi, which was very delicious. The potato spuds were great but there were lots of small potato skin that were too crisp to eat. We then topped off the meal with pineapple upside down cake. It was so yummy. I really enjoyed the creme brulee-like caramel on the top of the cake. I would come back again and would recommend for anyone who visits lanai.

Wow, great food, atmosphere, and service. All our dishes were cooked and presented perfectly. Awesome happy hour specials also from 4-530pm. Even if you're not staying at the hotel, this has to be the #1 dinner spot in the city.

The *BEST* Breakfast on Lana'i! The Pig Candy is best eaten with your fingers. Mochi Pancake is so delicious, no coconut syrup needed! French Toast is perfect. Loco Moco was decadent. Breakfast Burrito and array of salsas/sauces is very satisfying. Not pictured is the Breakfast Sandwich with venison sausage patty, which was inhaled before I could snap a pic! Don't skip out on the fresh juice blends -- the orange is bliss. Mahalo to Christian and the crew at LCBG for bringing bomb breakfast to the island! (Served Tuesday - Saturday @ 7-11am)

Let me start by saying, I don’t write reviews. However, when you are toggling between 2 Four Seasons resorts on the island and we choose to leave to eat at this local gem, for 3 nights already.....I just had to write a review!!!! The food is excellent and the service is second to none. Every single person that works here makes you feel like your friends. Everyone cares about your experience and takes the time to make you feel special. Did I mention that the food is amazing. Everything we have has left us wanting to come back and try something else. We haven’t been disappointed yet, the only problem is that eventually we need to leave and are sad that this isn’t our local bar and grill where we live. Come here, you will NOT be disappointed!!!!!!!!!

Came in on the 6:30am Ferry from Maui and this was our first stop for breakfast. It was sooo flipping good and filling. Great staff and great food! I got the Classic Breafast with the deer sausage which was amazing and the Guava jam was ...

We went to "Taco Tuesday" and it was amazing! The happy hour drinks specials were great and the pupus menu was amazing! They also had live music that was perfect. When we go back to Lana'i we will definitely go here for dinner again!
