Dive into Oceanarium Restaurant, where you can indulge in a seafood paradise — with a view, too, as patrons dine next to a massive, live aquarium. Located on the main floor of Pacific Beach Hotel, the eatery’s aquarium is three stories tall, holds 280,000 gallons of water and is home to hundreds of fish of all sizes.

The magic of Oceanarium only increases as diners are invited to daily buffets of all sorts. “Hawaii people love the buffets, and sometimes tourists are overwhelmed, but they enjoy it too,” says executive chef Mariano Lalica.
Oceanarium is open daily for breakfast from 6 to 10 a.m., for dinner from 4:30 to 10 p.m., and serves brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Call now to reserve a table.
