As an honored Iron Chef, Chef Masaharu Morimoto sets the bar high on expectation and manages to deliver with Morimoto Asia Waikiki, the signature restaurant of the ‘Alohilani Resort Waikīkī Beach. This Pan-Asian, dinner-only experience emphasizes the food cultures of China, Korea, Japan and Thailand while tapping into the abundant bounty of Hawai‘i’s native contributions. A glass encased kitchen puts on a nightly performance, expertly serving up elevated umami-packed dishes. Along an exclusive A5 wagyu menu of equally enticing options, Morimoto’s also adds some zest to routine Asian classics including orange chicken, barbecue black cod and shrimp pad thai. Everything from the whole Peking duck hand-carved at the table to the anchovies, fermented sauces and sweet-spicy combos throughout promises thoughtful bites to relish and savor while enjoying sweeping views of the world’s most celebrated beach.
