  • The food was great. Loved their cocktails. Staff were very professional and keep checking on us. Food portion was quite big. It was quite full. So we really enjoyed sitting outside for dinner. The price was reasonable.

  • Great vibes and yummy flavors and drinks! Our favorite was the spicy tuna crispy rice (ate it so fast i didn’t get a photo)! Our server who was also the bartender was so nice and they have so much seating indoors and out. Great for big groups!

  • First time visit. Went for lunch on a Tuesday for Taco Tuesday. 2 parking lots. Really friendly staff who mentioned it's 15% off on Fridays if you wear a Hawaiian shirt. Sat outside in the covered patio (they have a fire pit they light at night). Soft shell tacos were delicious with some unique ingredients. The parm garlic fries were hot and delicious. The menu is eclectic so there are plenty of options.

  • The vibes and decor here are so cool! I got their popular short rib loco moco ($20.50 before tax 2025) and it had a bunch of meat. The eggs were a bit overcooked and the rice was a bit oily but overall this was pretty good. Portions were generous too.

  • I don’t even know where to start—this was my very first time in California, and my great aunt recommended this restaurant as a must-visit for dinner. Boy, did she get it right! The food was absolutely delectable!!!! On top of that, our waitress Stephanie made the entire experience even better. Her positive, upbeat attitude turned our dinner into a truly memorable occasion that we will never forget! And please, I beg you to try the ‘Bahama Mama.’ If you’re into fruity drinks like I am, Stephanie is your girl—she makes one of the best I’ve ever had! Thank you Canoe House for everything!!!!

  • Met up with a group of friends here for our Cinco de Mayo dinner celebration and had a lovely time! Food was decent, drink specials to suit all tastes, vibes were chill and fun, and service was excellent - shout out to our server Mackenzie for taking such great care of us! While this is a Hawaiian-themed restaurant, we opted to celebrate here bc they have a variety of tacos on the menu as well as margaritas. It was a great spot bc it was lively without being crazy busy and overrun for the holiday. We made a reservation ahead of time and were seated immediately upon arrival. For our food, several of us got the Aloha fish tacos, some pork tacos, a moco loco, and an order of Parmesan truffle fries. I was one of the fish taco orders and I opted for the side of gazpacho which was a unique menu item. A sampled the truffle fries and they were delicious with a nice texture. The fish tacos were plated beautifully but were very bland and the fried fish had a strong oil flavor that tasted old so I wouldn’t get this again. But the gazpacho was surprisingly delicious- it’s a cold tomato style soup that tasted like a nice salsa and the large bits of avocado really made it a nice accompaniment. I also couldn’t resist trying a side of their macaroni salad and it was a solid recipe - if you like macaroni salad it won’t disappoint. Our table enjoyed several varieties of the margaritas as well as a tiki torch drink from the specials menu and all seemed to enjoy the libations. We also tried the pineapple upside down cake and it was a hit as well. For the hubby, I took home an order of the bow tie pesto pasta with salmon and a pineapple upside down cake and he loved all of it. The coconut ice cream that comes with the cake is especially nice. The decor here is reminiscent of a beach cottage and is really fun - the bar area even has a huge outrigger canoe hanging from the ceiling and beachy tiki hut bar vibes. Prices are mid range and portions are ample. There’s also plenty of free parking out front and in back in lots as well as some street parking in the surrounding area.

  • First time at Canoe House through DineLA. We got the fish and chips and the loco moco as well as the brussel chips appetizer and tuna over rice. There was also cobbler and an upside down pineapple cake for desser. It was all very good and hearty. The service was prompt and the food was delicious.
