Flair European Steakhouse in Kaka'ako has quietly slipped back onto the scene, reopening with a refreshed farm-to-table menu and a one-two punch of special Mother's Day brunch and dinner set for Sunday, May 10. The kitchen is leaning into shareable indulgence, with caviar seafood towers and a crabcake Benedict leading the charge alongside steak-and-eggs mains, house-made pastas and desserts. Happy hour is back in the evenings, and the team is already booking reservations ahead of the holiday rush.
Owner Constantin Dobrescu, manager Marcos Mena and chef Rohdel Ibay walked viewers through the rebooted lineup on the KHNL/KGMB Sunrise program, according to Hawaii News Now. The outlet notes that the menu leans on local sourcing, including fresh tuna brought in daily.
What’s On The Plate
The menu page highlights house-made bread, handmade pastas and desserts and puts the focus on seasonal, island-sourced ingredients, per Flair's website. The restaurant also touts a curated cocktail and wine program tailored to play nicely with its steaks and seafood.
When To Go And How To Book
Reservations are available through OpenTable, which lists evening hours and notes the menu was last updated on April 8. Flair's own happy-hour page currently shows a bar-only window from 4 to 6 p.m., while the Sunrise segment and Hawaii News Now cited a 5 to 7 p.m. window, so diners will want to confirm details on the restaurant's site before they go.
Flair’s return adds another elevated, European-style option to Kaka'ako’s dining mix and taps into the ongoing appetite for island-forward, chef-driven menus. With Mother's Day closing in, those special brunch and dinner seats are likely to disappear fast.
