"Fete is one of the few restaurants on Oahu that’s open from lunch through dinner and is truly excellent for all meals. Given its small, Brooklyn-meets-Hawai‘i-meets-French bistro space, we prefer it for date nights and small groups, though. And it’s vital you listen carefully to the long list of specials, which usually highlight a local fish and whatever the chef’s been obsessed with recently. That’s including, but not limited to, pork chops from pigs raised at Kualoa Ranch (a.k.a. the set of movies like Jurassic Park and Jumanji). The core menu features great dishes like carbonara with Portuguese sausage and a Korean fried chicken sandwich, and you’ll definitely want to stick around for the housemade Rocky Road ice cream." - Martha Cheng
