After an early morning hike at Hanauma Bay Ridge (just over 3 miles round trip!), my friend and I were starving and craving one thing: dim sum. We’d been meaning to try Harbor Village Cuisine in Hawaii Kai for a while now, and this post-hike hunger felt like the perfect excuse to finally check it out.
Unlike the typically packed dim sum spots in town on a Sunday morning, Harbor Village was quiet and calm — exactly what we were looking for after being out in the sun and wind. No long wait, no noisy crowds, just a peaceful sit-down meal with good company.
While Harbor Village doesn’t have the traditional dim sum carts rolling around, every dish we ordered came out fresh and hot. We tried:
Shrimp dumplings (har gow)
Pork dumplings (siu mai)
Spinach and shrimp dumplings
Fried seaweed rolls
House special cake noodles
 |
Everything hit the spot. The dumplings were juicy, the fried seaweed rolls had the perfect crunch, and the cake noodles were saucy and satisfying — exactly what we needed to refuel after the hike.
Bonus: The restaurant also offers fresh crab and lobster if you're looking to splurge. (Market price for crab that day was $85.)
We left full and happy. If only it were a little closer to town! For now, we’ll keep it on our post-hike eats list whenever we’re on this side of the island.
