Waikiki


Ride an escalator down to a perfectly authentic Japanese food court. Try to choose between 16 different stalls and restaurants. Your options range from organic o-musubi (rice cakes) to bento boxes to tempura and more. Some places are self-serve, while others offer table service. Kids are delighted by the rows of free vintage arcade games.
