A love for the fresh tropical flavors of the Pacific, Hawaii's tradition of ocean sports, and a deep appreciation for the Island spirit of "Aloha" led to the creation of Haleiwa Joe's in 1998. Partners Steve McGillin and Joe Lazar, recognizing that many others shared their love of the Islands, set about creating a restaurant that delivered a truly Hawaiian experience.

With menus inspired by the wealth of seafood from the Pacific, served in tropical Hawaiian settings, Haleiwa Joe's is a comfortable place to enjoy great food, magnificent views and good times. Today, while very popular with visitors from around the world, Haleiwa Joe's is a truly local's favorite, with three locations - on the harbor in the North Shore town of Haleiwa, overlooking the lush tropical foliage and ponds of Haiku Gardens on the East Shore, and in an architectural landmark building in Rancho Mirage, near Palm Springs.
