My husband and I came here for our anniversary dinner. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere on the beach was awesome. Great service, atmosphere and food. Everything our waiter recommended was perfect.

We were staying the Turtle Bay villas, had just come in from a 11 hour flight. This was perfect for a quick bite. The food on the dinner menu was rather expensive $40-$70 an entree but the bar menu was great and they let us Oder off the kids menu. The goat cheese nachos were wonderful!

The poke here is still the best I've ever had. We always eat at Ola at least once every trip we make to the North Shore. The food is quite expensive, but you can't beat the location. It is right on the beach. Very nice for a romantic dinner.

we loved the butter fish. Pricy. Our dinner was 100.00 so save this place for a special occasion. Ola is located a 1min walk on the beach from the hotel. The bathrooms are gross b/c they are considered public bathrooms so go inside the hotel to use those. It frustrated me that they couldnt be cleaner since I spent $100.00... More

My husband and I had a date recently and decided on Ola, a restaurant, despite being a little pricey, that we've loved! This trip we noticed the menu had changed, as well as the prices. The menu still rates as very nice options, although not excellent. And the prices are outrageous! It's listed here that the price range is something... More

Ok, this place has a great location on the beach. The servers had a great understanding if the menu. But the food was ok, and way overpriced. 32 dollars for 3 scallops that were not even that good? My wife had a steak that was good, and others said the fish was ok. I wish we avoided this place and... More

The food was horrible and over priced! My husband got fish and pasta, since we figured pasta was hard to screw up. Wrong! It was like soggy or overcooked, and also had weird crunchy things in it and the sauce was bland. I had the lobster tail, which came with mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables. Where to start on this... More

Ola is right on the beach on the north shore at the Turtle Bay resort. We've eaten lunch there several times. A bit pricey but the burgers and other menu items are good as are the drinks. Great views!

Loved it! Great food, great location. Our table was right in the sand on the beach and the lighting was provided by Tiki Torches. Very romantic!
