Roy’s opened here in 2004. The main dining room seats 160, and the Bridge Bar patio (80 seats) looks over the 18th hole. Live music plays on the Bridge Bar lanai every Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 6 to 9 p.m.; ask for the lanai when you book. Private rooms seat 10, 20 and 50. It is one of Roy Yamaguchi’s own Hawaii restaurants, which he kept when the mainland chain was sold in 2014.

Lunch runs daily from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Aloha Hour is 2 to 5 p.m. daily, except major holidays, with $11 wines, $9 beers, a $14 mai tai (see the best mai tais on Oahu) and pupus from $8 to $16.

Roy’s is at 92-1220 Aliʻinui Drive, in the Ko Olina Golf Club clubhouse. Aulani says the club is across the street and within walking distance (see our Aulani review), and the Four Seasons is a short walk. From Waikiki it is 25.9 miles, about 35 minutes without traffic. The golf club’s Waikiki shuttle is for golfers with tee times only. Call (808) 676-7697 for parking. Our Ko Olina guide and Ko Olina map cover the rest of the resort.
