Exceptional experience at Mother’s Day brunch! Views, service, food quality! Recommend for special occasions. We especially enjoyed the tuna tartare and quiche! Caviar was super high quality too. Everything was light and balanced. Perfect portion sizes as well. Cade was the best server, so attentive and knew all the details on how the food was prepared and the ingredients!! Vegetables were locally sourced from farmers, and they change seasonally. Menu was curated perfectly. Loved every veggie taste. They even served green ferns, which was so delicious. Valet parking. Fantastic ocean view. Indoor and outdoor dining. Every table has a great view.

Dinner at 53 By The Sea absolutely delivered 🌊✨ Went with the roast beef paired with a lobster tail — and wow. The beef was perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor, while the lobster was buttery, fresh, and just the right amount of indulgent. That combo alone was worth it. Add in the oceanfront views and the whole experience just hits different. Great food, great atmosphere, and definitely a spot I’d come back to. 🍽️🔥

Everything I expected it to be. This was a bucket list dining experience for me and it was amazing. McKenna our server was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. Our food was superb - we started with the Ahi Tartare and for entrees had pork and homemade pasta. Do not skip on dessert! The chocolate lava cake and lilikoi ice cream were delicious!

My wife and I ate at 53 By The Sea a while back and somehow forgot to post—but this brunch absolutely deserved the reminder. We’ve always loved brunch here, and once again the service, ambiance, and food were dialed in. The sweeping ocean views, with Diamond Head in the distance, never get old and make brunch feel like a mini escape. We started with the Fresh Oysters, bright and refreshing, layered with preserved lemon, coconut, lemongrass oil, and Haleiwa salt—clean, coastal flavors that set the tone perfectly. The Market Catch was cooked just right and paired beautifully with canary beans, green beans, charred tomatoes, chili, and a punchy green olive salsa verde. The clear star was the Savory Dutch Baby, loaded with Maine sea scallops and Atlantic lobster tail, finished with vanilla drawn butter (and yes, we added the poached egg—zero regrets). Rich, indulgent, and completely worth it. Paired with a crisp Pinot Grigio and those views, it made for another memorable brunch. A consistently excellent spot and one we’ll happily keep coming back to.

One of the restaurants with the most beautiful views in Hawaii. It offers a 360° ocean view and overlooks Diamond Head. While dining you can watch sunset cruise boats gradually heading out to sea and see surfers riding the waves.Which creates a wonderful atmosphere. The food are delicious. The service is excellent and valet parking is available. I recommend making a reservation in advance as the restaurant is fully booked every day.
