Duke’s is a must-stop for first-time visitors to Waikiki. This oceanfront restaurant sits in the heart of all the action, directly across the street from the International Market Place and just a few steps away from the soft sands of Waikiki Beach. The atmosphere here is vibrant, with locals and tourists alike flocking to Duke’s nightly to enjoy live Hawaiian music. Warm breezes swirl throughout the dining room, which is furnished with rattan-style tables and chairs. The restaurant’s namesake, surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku, mastered his sport by “ripping the curls” off Waikiki.
