What You’ll Eat at Foodland’s Restaurants During HONOLULU Restaurant Week
(Partner Content) Make reservations to dine at these participating Foodland restaurants during the first-ever HONOLULU Restaurant Week, taking place Nov. 9 through 17, 2024.
This year, HONOLULU is jumpstarting the season’s eatings with a new event that celebrates our local restaurants. Starting this Saturday, Nov. 9, 100 restaurants around the island will be offering exclusive prix fixe menus at special prices for the first-ever HONOLULU Restaurant Week, giving you the chance to support new and favorite restaurants without dipping into your Christmas shopping fund.
We all know it as the local grocery chain and our go-to for poke bowls, wings and so much more. But Foodland has a family of restaurants, too, all of whom will be highlighting their signature dishes and customer favorites during HONOLULU Restaurant Week. From a poke flight to whiskey pairings, brunch at Kahala-favorite et al. to a modern take on Hawaiian food at sister restaurant ‘Olili, Foodland’s team of chefs have cooked up an amazing offering of prix fix menus (at killer prices). Take this as your reminder to book your HONOLULU Restaurant Week reservations now.
