Hawaii Mom Blog: Lunch at Straits Honolulu

When Straits first opened, my friends and I tried to stop by for drinks but the new restaurant was packed so we were politely turned away. I could instantly tell from the dark lighting and the loud music that Straits at night was fun and had a great vibe, but not for me. Straits during the day, however, is definitely more to my liking.

The restaurant is spacious and quite pretty with beautiful natural daylight and the menu is kept simpler with lunch plates and specialty offerings. It's the perfect place to have lunch with the girls, but also suitable for a business lunch. Straits features Singaporean cuisine with a modern twist. We enjoyed the Hainan Chicken, a signature dish, as well as the Nasi Lemak plate and Laksa Noodle Soup. The food great and the service was excellent. Straits is also offering a brunch menu on the weekends.
