The South Sound’s newest Hawaiian Restaurant, the Lanai Cafe, located in downtown Olympia near 5th and Capitol, has been open for a little over two months and already, has served thousands from all over the South Sound including Olympia, Lacey, and Tumwater.

The reviews are in. The fresh, handmade menu items, dinner concerts, and pau hana are just a few reasons why over 75 official reviews have been left on Facebook, Yelp, and Google.  The following is a list of four things you should know before you venture into the Lanai Cafe.

1.    Pau Hana

Pau means “finished” and “Hana” means “end of week”. Together they are “Pau Hana”, as it’s known on the islands.  Join us each Friday from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. for discounted “pupu’s” (appetizers) including fresh poke (ahi tuna).  While you’re at it, enjoy a cold beer from Kona Brewing Company.  Still hungry?  Then stay and enjoy the Sounds of the Aloha (Live Music) while you enjoy a Hawaiian meal.

Each Friday and Saturday from 6:30 p.m.  to 9:30 p.m. The Lanai Cafe offers live Hawaiian music. No other place in Western Washington offers live hawaiian music every Friday and Saturday night.  On top of that, the quality is top notch.  Award winning bands and performers include Kohala and Stephen Inglis.  There is no cover and reservations are highly recommended.  Call (360) 584-9885 to book your table.

On Friday, November 6, we held a New Member Orientation at the Thurston County Chamber. Thank you to The Lanai Cafe for providing the amazing food. We were not only fed, we were entertained! More lumpia, please.

A customer who recently visited us left a review on Yelp.  Jacklyn K., from Honolulu Hawaii gave a review on Yelp on 11/11/15 saying, “We had the lumpia to start – crisp, hot, and delicious. I had the kalua quesadilla which was made even better by the fresh guacamole they made for me after they ran out. My husband had the huli huli chicken and kalbi short rib.”
