How to Rock Your Dad on Father's Day in Waikiki

June 09, 2025

This Father's Day, Waikiki Beach Walk can rock your dad's world and make it his best ever.

Really? The best Father’s Day ever?
 
We’ll admit that that’s a pretty big claim.
 
But we’re confident we’ve got the goods to rock your dad, both literally and figuratively.
 
 
 
 

Rock lobster


Lobster is just one of the surf’n’turf options available at Ruth’s Chris Steak House.

Of course, a sumptuous entrée like that from Ruth’s Chris usually meant waiting until after 4pm to get one.
 
Not on Father’s Day.
 
Ruth’s Chris has special hours for dad on his day, opening at 11am for brunch with a special menu that includes innovative creations like Tenderloin Eggs Benedict (which is pretty self-explanatory, especially considering this is Ruth’s Chris Steak House).
 
And... a fabulous surf’n’turf combo featuring a tender 8 oz center-cut filet topped with generous portions of tender crab meat, perfectly prepared in garlic lemon butter.
 
This mouthwatering entrée joins another classic surf’n’turf offering, with the 8 oz center cut filet paired with a succulent jumbo lobster tail (pictured).
 
This is part of the Ruth’s Chris Chef’s Summer Selections, a special, chef-selected menu that showcases the flavors of summer, and also includes a savory 8 oz seared ahi tuna filet, lightly seasoned and topped with a delicate, house-made soy-ginger sauce (also pictured).

Hot rocks

If you want to pamper dad, here’s a pro tip: Don’t call it pampering.
 
As our headline suggests, tell him he’s in store for some hot rockin’ and then take him to Blue Sky Thai Massage & Spa, on WBW's 2nd level.
 
Not only is Blue Sky Thai Massage Honolulu's No. 1 traditional Thai massage practice, offering authentic Thai massage as well as a selection of other rejuvenating deep-tissue therapies, but dad will get a free hot stone treatment with any of the full menu of soothing therapies.
 
Expertly administered by an experienced, knowledgeable staff in a modern, family-friendly environment, and employing aromatic, essential oils and other plant-based compounds that will improve is mood and health.
 
But just tell dad he’ll smell and feel real good. And let him know that mom is welcome to join him.
 

Cool stones

Three different styles of rings for men from Na Hoku Jewelry

You may have noticed that a lot of men don’t wear much jewelry.
 
We think it’s because they haven’t yet found Na Hoku, Hawaii’s Finest Jewelers Since 1924â
 
This is where you lay some cool stones like diamonds and sapphire on dad ...if he’s a diamond and sapphire kind of guy.
 
But maybe he’s a little more “of the Aina” (meaning “land” in Hawaiian), and in that case, you can  surprise him with a burly bracelet, watch or ring made with rugged and unique elements like deep black onyx, luminous and iridescent abalone or Koa Wood a deep, rich hardwood that is legendary in Hawaiian history (it’s named after the Hawaiian word for “warrior”).
 
Or go for a design that both speaks to him and tells the world something about him. Like an arresting tattoo design carved in a heavy 14 carat gold ring, or a sterling silver manta ray (pictured, along with a Koa wood, abalone and emerald in sterling silver band). 
 
Oh, and go ahead and pick up a little something for yourself while you’re at it.
 

Literally. We got rocks.

Some dads have a certain mystique. Some dads want some.
 
Either way, a trip to Lemuria Crystal Shop will fulfill both.
 
Lemuria Crystal Shop's essence is a unique blend of spirituality and a love for rocks and minerals, honoring the natural beauty which the earth provides.
