Comfort flavors expressing a local flair best characterize the cuisine at Leʻahi Bar & Grill, a casual eatery on Waikiki’s east end. The gathering spot attracts residents and visitors alike with its high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and reasonable prices with most dishes ranging from $5 to $23. The recent addition of Hawaiian plate lunches and a refreshed happy hour menu give
more cause for multiple visits.
A superb lineup of poke and weekly plate lunch and weekly plate lunch specials celebrate Hawaii’s bounty through explosive flavors rooted in authenticity. Poke selections include favorites such as shoyu ahi and spicy tuna avocado, but also feature an innovative vegan poke of kalo (taro), ‘ulu (breadfruit), and u‘ala (sweet potato) tossed in a ginger scallion sauce that is surprisingly seductive.
Weekly lunch specials such as crispy ahi katsu (tuna cutlet), umami-laden shoyu chicken, and savory hamburger steak will add other compelling options.
From 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. daily, Le‘ahi Bar & Grill’s happy hour menu tempts with new pupus that transform ordinary bar bites into something uniquely local.
Consider the spicy Korean sauce wings, which lacquers chicken with an alluring spicy sweet soy, or the fried calamari with a furikake (seaweed seasoning) butter sauce accent, taking flavors to another level. The honey walnut shrimp sprinkles in coconut flakes to impart the taste of the tropics while the BBQ kalua pork sandwich serves smoked shredded pork dripping with Kansas City-style BBQ sauce.
Whether you come for breakfast, lunch, happy hour or dinner, Le‘ahi Bar & Grill gives you a sampling of the best local flavors Hawaii has to offer. With live entertainment nightly from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., you may spend most of your vacation here.
