But our second time was a mellow Wednesday for lunch and while the timing was better (still not synced), the food was either meh or completely shameful. Yes, shameful! Wife got the Caesar salad with char siu chicken katsu. The chicken was ono but the salad was lazy. Basic greens with a low-quality bottled sauce squeezed on top. No wonder it came out five minutes before mine. I got the fish tacos with tots (extra $2), and this dish was the most egregious rip off I've ever seen in a restaurant. No wonder the server dropped it and ran. For $18, I got three street taco-sized flour tortillas, goopy mayo-laden "slaw", and pico with a teeny tiny piece of fish on top. See the pics! Smaller than my thumb. Barely two tater tots in size. And because it was plopped into mayo slaw, it was soggy on arrival. The fish was also suspiciously fishy tasting. I debated eating it. I ended up making one taco with all the fish and a potato taco with some tots before finally giving up. I know things are tough for restaurants right now. But this was ridiculous. I paid and left and called it a lesson learned. I'll likely stick to the Pucks Alley location from now on. Still some pride in what they serve there.

Hana Koa Brewing is definitely worth the drive or bike ride because it's not in Waikiki, but the…read moretrip is absolutely worth it if you're looking for something a little different from the traditional beers you can get anywhere. The space has a more upscale feel, with a really nice vibe inside and plenty of tables. They have a great selection beyond their own beer, including cocktails, wine, non-alcoholic drinks, and guest taps. I especially loved that they offered smaller beer pours, which let me try several different beers without committing to a full pour of each. I was there for the beer, and I definitely wasn't disappointed! I was also really impressed by the food menu. They had lunch specials that sounded fantastic, and they even offer a brunch menu with special brunch cocktails. I wasn't hungry enough to try the food this time, but it definitely gives me a reason to come back. Great beer, a beautiful space, and lots of options for everyone. Definitely recommend adding Hana Koa to your Oahu brewery list!

More like 3.5 stars...here's why…read more Attentive, friendly service the moment you step inside. Too many IPAs. If you prefer something else, the lager-type offering tastes basic. An afterthought at best, which is why we usually go elsewhere. Parking lot for convenience, but ONLY if you don't come at peak hours. Otherwise, it's a shit show. Why bad beer and iffy parking can be tolerated. Possibly the best fish and chips I've had on island and beyond. You get a generous, flaky filet fried in a crispy, golden beer batter with the proper proportion of fish to coating. It's paired with seasoned french fries that come hot and fresh. But. The rest of the menu is hit or miss. The burger was underwhelming. The grilled chicken sandwich arrived dry even though it was thigh meat. Some serious quality issues if that gets out of the kitchen. The list goes on. Honestly, I come back for the fish. And that's about it.

Such a cool hidden gem inside Aloha Beer Co.!…read more We got to check out their new speakeasy, The Pinehopple Room, and I absolutely loved the whole concept. It feels like you're stepping away from the regular brewery vibe and into this cozy little secret spot. The room has a really fun, intimate atmosphere -- dimmer lighting, cute tropical touches, and that speakeasy feel without being overly fancy or stuffy. Definitely a great place for date night or to bring some friends for a different kind of pau hana. One of the coolest parts is that they have a secret menu that you can only order inside The Pinehopple Room. We tried a few of their cocktails along with some Aloha Beer, and everything was really good. The cocktails were creative, well-balanced, and you can tell they put some thought into making the drinks match the whole experience. Service was also wonderful. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and happy to explain the drinks and the concept of the room, which made the experience even better. Just know that The Pinehopple Room isn't open every day -- it's normally open Friday and Saturday, as well as for special event buyouts. If you already like Aloha Beer Co., this gives you another reason to come back. And if you're looking for a fun little speakeasy experience in Honolulu with good cocktails, cold beer, and a cool atmosphere, definitely check out The Pinehopple Room!

The patio is a fantastic space to relax and enjoy a beer. I took advantage of happy hour and ordered the crispy rice and poke bowl, and it was delicious. I also got a flight of beers, which I always appreciate at breweries because it lets me try multiple brews. There were plenty of other food options on the menu too, including dessert. One really fun touch: they even have a special dog menu since dogs are welcome on the patio! Overall, this is such a great spot to spend an afternoon--good beer, delicious food, a great outdoor space, and excellent service. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a relaxed brewery experience on Oahu!

The tastings are 100% recommended. I'm not a rum drinker at all, but the tasting really helped me understand how much good, well-made rum is underrated. You get to appreciate the craftsmanship and flavors in a way you probably wouldn't from just having rum at a bar. Another great perk is that they offer shipping, so if you find something you love but don't have much room in your luggage, you can have it shipped home. Overall, a great experience and an easy stop to add to your Oahu itinerary. Definitely recommend checking it out! Ambiance is Hawaiian and the aloha spirit is definitely given . 5/5

Finally, got seated and a server eventually came by. The pepperoni rolls are delicious as always. We tried the paniolo burger (excellent) and the It's a Gouda burger (good, but I couldn't really taste the aioli or the Gouda). The mac salad on the side is fairly good although I prefer Zippy's because it's more flavorful. Kona's is a bit on the bland side. I got an itty bitty beer to go with my drink and didn't realize that the 5 ounce pour was basically the size of one of their little taster flight beers, but it's $4.25, where the 10 ounce is $6.25. Kind of wish my server had pointed out the 10 ounce is a better value, but they were extremely casual and seemed pretty distracted the whole time, so I don't think they thought to mention it. The 15% off for kama'aina makes the food a better deal. A nice place for a bite to eat and to try some interesting beers and seltzers on tap.

My only complaint is that Lokahi Brewing fit us all into a pretty tight space on the second floor so it was a bit uncomfortable. 5/5 Yelp Stars for Matthew Singer. Unfortunately, Lokahi Brewing's food missed the mark for me. Their brews were not bad, but there are other breweries in town that I prefer over Lokahi. I tried 4 different ones, and my favorite was the FLOOR IS GUAVA. Here's all the food we got: LOKAHI NACHOS w/ BIRRIA MEAT ($23) [3/5] - Portion was decent for $23, but the chips ran stale and there was uneven distribution of cheese and toppings throughout the nachos. Literally, one side had all the cheese and toppings. The birria meat didn't really taste of the classic Mexican spices that makes birria so good, it felt more like pulled pork. It was also dry. FRIED PICKLES ($10?) [2/5] - This was SO SALTY. I didn't really taste the tang of the pickles, felt like it was squeezed out of all its juice. It was ultimately just chips with a ton of salt. I downed two cups of water trying to finish these. Ultimately, I would come back to Lokahi Brewing for their shows and a brew or two, but I'll eat at home or elsewhere first before coming.
