Cafe Miro

I can’t even begin to describe what a fantastic meal+experience we had here! Excellent! Delicious! Go! *We had their à la carte menu The service is Michelin fine dining -level. Everyone from the host to the bartenders to the food runners paid amazing attention to detail and all took pride in their work. The restaurant is very modern, but cozy and comfortable. We sat at the bar and the seats were super comfortable, the service was excellent: the bartenders were very helpful, professional, and knew the menu. Cocktails were awesome, and every item we ordered was perfect/delicious/amazing.

Originally Cafe Miro with Chef Shigeru Kobayashi at the helm, Chef Chris Kajioka rebranded the restaurant after Chef Kobayashi's retirement as Miro Kaimuki. Reinvented once again in 2026 as Cafe Miro Kaimuki. The monthly prix fixe menu is still available, but now, you can also dine from their À la carte menu. Or do both!!! 🙌 The food, wine and cocktaild here are phenomenal but the service and genuine hospitality are also the best in town! True omotenashi! 💚💚💚

A great new spin on what used to be Miro Kaimuki. The ahi brioche is as good as ever and there’s lots of other great à la carte items as well. Some highlights for me were the steak and conservas. One request would be to please bring back the sourdough!! 🙏

Surprised we just recently discovered Cafe Miro which recently revamped their menu to offer à la carte options. Love the simplistic and modern decor in the restaurant and especially love the background music they played throughout our meal. What drew us to try this restaurant was a post on IG of their ahi and uni brioche. Was a bit disappointed that they didn't list the caviar version on the menu but I guess previous diners knew to ask for it. We only noticed the table next to us having it but they did opt for the tasting menu which didn't seem to be an exorbitant amount of food (which we were afraid of). We started with both the ahi and uni brioche which were both amazing. Next time we will definitely add that one to the list of snacks. My wife loves escargots and it definitely hit the spot as it was both buttery and garlicky. Will have to admit Cafe Miro's version rivals the best in Paris and is better than what we have at Bouchon. I'll be honest, I had hoped to love the Kauai prawns but so far the prawns at Bavel take the grown. The prawns were fresh and decently sized but wasn't a fan of the flavor for some reason. We loved the charred cabbage which was a nice modern rendition of your typical Chinese chicken salad minus the chicken of course! For our main, we selected the seared scallops w/ dried scallop porridge. The scallops were perfectly seared and seasoned and the porridge complimented the scallops perfectly. The fries were also fried to the perfect golden brown and quite enjoyed Chef's "Cane" sauce. Needless to say we were pretty full but still had room for their chocolate Strauss milk soft serve which was good but we can get something similar back in LA. The star was definitely the banana mochi cake which was fantastic! I personally love banana bread and when you combine that with a mochi like bread ... OMFG!! Will definitely be back the next time out to the island and mahalo to Chef Kajioka and team for an amazing meal. We will definitely opt for the tasting meal next time!
