Honolulu Tavern is a classic old-school Waikiki dive bar. It's frequented mostly by locals and…read moreoffers much more reasonable drink prices than most spots in the area. The place isn't fancy -- just a couple of fans trying to move the air -- but it has a relaxed, no-frills vibe that's refreshing after walking around Waikiki. Good spot if you're looking for affordable drinks and a laid-back local atmosphere rather than a polished tourist bar. Imee, is my favorite bartender. She'll take great care of you and keep you laughing!

My fiancé wanted to check this place out for their beer and it seemed like a great place for a…read morefamily dinner, so off we went. We were seated relatively quickly, outside, at a long picnic table. No problems there. But then... Our server (Andrew, I think that's his name...it was on the receipt but we literally never saw him after he took our order and then brought the bill), really didn't want any small talk at all. He seemed a bit annoyed when my fiancé asked about their own brews....almost like it would've been easier for him to just order Coors or something. You're a brewing company...people are going to have questions. All 4 of us ordered something different- Sicilian pepperoni pizza, some type of burger, pulled pork loaded fries, and a macadamia nut chicken salad. Food was average...you can tell they cater to tourists.. Our server never checked on us. He took our order, a runner brought the food out, and the next time he came to the table was with a bill. I actually had to flag down another service so we could cash out. I have so much respect for people working in the service industry. It's a hard job. You deal with people all the time and some of them are downright jerks. We weren't jerks. We were regular, nice customers. It takes a lot for me to not tip anywhere between 20-25%. Sadly, this was one of those times. 2 stars

Walking through the South Shore Market and looking for a bite to eat, we stumbled across Off the…read moreWall and there was quite a crowd so we asked how long the wait would be. No wait for our party of 2, and we were sat immediately at a high top communal style table. It is a bar type establishment, with pour your own beers and wines on the wall. Not super noisy, but everyone was having their conversations and having a great time. Everything on the menu sounded delicious, and food walking past us looked amazing! The only difference to this establishment was instead of a server taking our order, we were instructed to go to the front podium to place the order when we were ready. We opted for the Fried Calamari with Cilantro Lime Aioli to start, and ordered the Chop Salad with Tofu and the Verde Bowl. The food came out so quickly, and we were actually surprised with the portion sizes for all the dishes. We were able to share the salad and bowl and still had enough to pack a take out box. Everything was delicious! I'm sure it can get busy on the weekends, but overall seems like a nice place to chill with good food, good drinks and good conversation. Wish we had more time to hang out!

The Hawaiian Rancher's Burger with potato wedges were not that good. The beef patty was big and…read morethick, but when you bite into it, it has no taste. So I had to pour their dressing on to the beef patty to add flavor. The burger bun and the 2 slices of bacon were good. But the large potato wedges were not good, it tasted powdery, lack of seasoning, not the right kind potato. We ordered 2 burgers to go. It was fast and the staff were nice.

We were a little early for the UH volleyball game so we stopped by Beer Lab for a drink…read more It was packed on a Saturday evening at 6:00pm, full of UH fans wearing green! I love it! They might have been there to watch the basketball game or early volleyball fans. The ordering process was new to me. You scan a QR code and order your food and drinks and pay using either your credit card or Apple Pay. It kinda threw me off because you include your tip BEFORE you are even served! I thought tip was based on service, but this place asks for tip before you even interact with your server. I guess this is the 'new' way? IDK. We ordered cilantro lime wings, and 4 drinks. It came out to $68, including tip of 15%. Kinda high but the food and drinks came out pretty quick. I would return if we need to kill time before a UH game. Nonetheless, it is a very popular place and we spent a nice hour there.

Pretty terrible food, and pricy. Wings were very small, dry, and $15…read more Good beer, but also pricy. I guess this is the norm though.

Hana Koa Brewing Co…read more Stopped by for a Pau Hana while in town, and it couldn't have been a better way to spend the afternoon. Good food, great craft beer, and the Mexico vs. Czech Republic FIFA World Cup match on the TVs. Moments like these remind us how sports can symbolize unity and world peace by bringing people from different cultures and backgrounds together. Food We shared the Beer Battered Fish & Chips, Bang-A-Rang Shrimp, and Eggplant Bruschetta. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The fish was crispy on the outside and flaky inside, the Bang-A-Rang Shrimp had just the right amount of crunch and flavor, and the Eggplant Bruschetta was a delicious starter. Drinks I ordered a beer flight with #5 Torchlight, #10 Hops for Hugs, #14 Rice Breaker, and #16 After Hours. After Hours was easily my favorite. My friend had a pint of #3 Aqueerius, a refreshing sour ale with raspberry limeade notes that he really enjoyed. Service & Atmosphere The staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. The brewery is spacious, clean, and a great place to relax with friends or catch a game. Parking is available along the side of the building, but spaces are limited. Great food, excellent beer, friendly service, and a fun atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back!

The place is very aesthtic and cute but overall, due to the bad service it quickly killed the mood…read more Service was not the best, our server seemed bothered for simple requests like when we asked to order food after waiting like 20 mins or asked for water. Anyways, went in for happy hr, got a flight, some onion rings, fries, and a hot honey chicken sandwich (the special for the month) Flight was good but I wish you could choose which beers you wanted to try - its like a set list. Onion rings were okay, but was charged extra for sauce even though it was listed as an option. Fries were crispy & great. Chicken sandwich was very good too. Vibes were a miss for me, wanted to love this brewery but left very underwhelmed. Probably won't be back. There are other local breweries I'd love to give my $ to instead.

The place itself has seating inside and outside. We sat outside, and it was a nice evening. The place was not loud and the service was quick. The people working were very sweet! The place felt casual with wood tables and decorations. We decided to order a burger and macaroni. Both came out pretty quickly. The burger and the fries were yummy! The fries were pretty big and were good on their own. The burger was tasty and tasted like it had just the right amount of salt. The macaroni was also very good, with a decent amount in the bowl. We look forward to coming back and trying some other food items!

Depending on the time of day you come, it can be relaxing with sofa seating, bar seating, and cafe tables. They have a great happy hour menu, fun foods, and tons of drink options. I've been now also during concert nights and the place can get packed. If you really want to see a band, be sure to buy tickets early for entry as at-the-door entry may not be available. Prices are reasonable for drinks and tickets. Bartender Kama was super attentive and friendly all evening on a recent visit, mahalo! If you like pop culture art, local music, and contemporary Hawaii culture, this is a great place to come and have fun.

They legitimately hate their customers. I wish I could describe the vile behavior of these kooks. Everytime I come here I leave more disappointed.
