Where should you eat tonight? Where should we begin? How about at A (Alicia’s Market), or H (Hot Pot Heaven) or, for those who like working backward, Z (zpizza) … A team of five food and dining experts from the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, with the help of our newspaper readers, compiled this guide to the best places to eat on Oahu.

You’ll find eateries here from the most elegant to the most humble. As is our practice, reviews were conducted anonymously, with meals paid for by the Star-Advertiser. None of the restaurants in this guide were given special consideration in exchange for advertising.

The top awardees will be honored Oct. 8 at the annual Honolulu Star-Advertiser ‘Ilima Awards, a benefit event for Diamond Head Theatre, our partner in this guide. The theater, established in 1915, is the third-oldest continously operating community theater in the nation. The awards dinner plays a key role in supporting DHT’s many programs and productions.

Find this guide online at staradvertiser.com and at honolulupulse.com. Visit these sites regularly and pick up the newspaper’s Wednesday food section, as well as Friday’s TGIF to keep up with the restaurant scene.
