Went there for Happy Hour and we ordered almost everything available on the Happy Hour menu except the sliders. They didn't have a lunch or dinner menu you could order from. Food was alright and not necessarily a great price for the appetizer sized dishes. Service was okay. read more

The food was really sub par for the price. The only place we went to on 11 day stay at the Hale Koa we would never go back to again. No flavor in the food, the waiter looked like he would rather be anywhere else, and I just bet you the kitchen staff felt the same way. Plenty of cheaper and tastier options just a walk away off campus. Don't waste your money. We overheard other people talking about how bad the food was while riding the elevators. read more

Bibas is American Hawaiian Seafood Restaurant. I ate outdoors with work colleagues. The weather was great. The servers were friendly. The food presentation was excellent. I had lobsters but the cajun chicken pasta dish was also tasteful. Nice views from outside dining area. Bon Apetit. read more

The food looked pretty good from what I saw. However, I think everything is overpriced. They are shorthanded on staff. My party and I received our waters and that was it. After 10 mins passed we decided to go to Happys for dinner. The staff apologized but I was honestly chilling looking up other places to eat on my visit. I was waiting on other people in my party to decide if they wanted to wait to be served. read more

Parking tough in Waikiki and never free. Must have military ID. Seated right away. Service was decent. Food tasted great. Not amazing but great. Decent prices compared to every where else with inflation now. read more

This review is just for the walk-up bar. Ordered a few drinks to take away and sit at the pool. I got myself and my wife a couple of Lava Flows to help cool ya down at the pool. Good prices considering it's a resort downtown. I normally love the Mai Tais here and walk around with them but sitting at the pool required a refreshing Lava Flow!! Only 4 stars because it's part of the restaurant and the few times I've had food from there, dine in and room service, read more

Fishes and steak highly recommend ..the place is very nice that you can pick the outside and inside ambiance.

The restaurant was very clean. We went at 7pm. No reservation needed, were seated quick. I understand about the location and who they "serve" too...militaries and families but for that reason prices are too high. We paid $13 for 3 coconut shrimps I almost ate the shell . Food my plate was 1/2 chicken, Jazmin rice and vegetables . Perfect amount for me(female), I was hungry so I ate it all!! But $26 ? Food was acceptable in flavor, under temperature for a dinner plate. My husband has Alfredo shrimps, after an hour he was looking for more to eat, too small amount. He liked the flavor, not a big deal for him. Drinks beer and piña colada okay. read more

One would be better off with a bag of chips from a nearby vending machine for lunch than to be subjected to the deep fried catastrophe found at Bibas. From there website: "Pacific Rim fusion and traditional American favorites are on the chef-crafted menu here. We take full advantage of the abundant fresh, local ingredients in Hawaii to prepare fine options for refined palate". Ummmm, no. You can be assured your meal will start from a frozen package before being dumped into a deep fryer or microwave. I've got nothing against fried foods, in fact that's why I came--for some fresh local beer battered fish and chips and some wings. But you cannot advertise "fresh local ingredients for the refined palate " and serve your customers IQF fish and chicken from a freezer bag. And if you're going to make frying your thing, then make sure your oil is up to temperature before putting anything in. The fries, onion rings, fish, and chicken were sopping with grease. The result of cool fry oil absorbing into the food. This would usually be a one star review, but the beautiful surroundings of the Hale Koa grounds, and the friendly servers do count for something. I just feel bad that they have to serve this garbage with a straight face. read more

I've eaten here several times over the years on five different trips. Tonight was my second meal this vacation. The food is always awful. The only thing the place has going for it is it's location in the hotel. Other restaurants are a ten minute walk. I pledge to never eat here again. read more

If I could sum this place in one word, "military". The food is good. The service is good. The atmosphere is . . . military. Not like uniforms and short haircuts military. More like traveling abroad and visiting other military bases and facilities, where everything is like . . . military. It's like eating at any bases' officer or NCO club, but Bibas is just about 1/4 click up from anticipated. Ok, don't let me confuse you. We stayed next door at the Hilton Waikiki Beach resort and basically walked behind our resort to get here. With military ID, we could still take some advantages of the Hale Koa. The prices in all of the facilities at the Hale Koa are about 1/3 less than other resorts nearby. So it's worth the effort to eat here at Bibas at least once during your visit. Certainly qualifies as the Hale Koa's "signature restaurant" but is far from being an "exquisite dining experience". Dicks read more

Ate here for the first time with my family. We ordered the Kiawe Wood Smoked Smoked Pacific Salmon (small portion, but very flavorful and a bit salty), Guava Roast Chicken and Ribs Combo (very delicious), Pepperoni Flatbread (nothing amazing about it), and Garlic Shrimp (small portion, but delicious). For dessert, we ordered the Diamond Head Mud Pie (super yummy), Pineapple Upside Down Cake (with ice cream and nothing amazing about it), and Seven Layer Chocolate Cake (really rich, but sooooo delicious). For drinks, we ordered a Tropical Colada (tastes like a Pina Colada served in a coconut cup that we can keep). The staff are friendly and informational, but did take a bit long to check up on us when we were trying to order dessert and also pay our bill. Not sure if our waiter, Tedja was busy, but he was super nice and recommended a lot of yummy dishes. This place is located on the 1st floor of the Hale Koa Hotel. There's a parking structure across the street from the hotel. read more

Food is flavorless. Minus the happy hour menu. Dinner I ordered the salmon and mashed potatoes. Salmon was flavorless, the mashed potatoes weee from a box. Not fresh at all. Tastes like play doh. Would not go back nor recommend. read more

We ate takeout here a few times. Steak was good. The burger and fries were excellent. The lunch menu looks more well rounded unfortunately we never got around to eating lunch there. read more

I honestly don't understand the negative reviews. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The cocktails were excellent and fairly priced. My husband ordered the shrimp and he loved it. I ordered the filet and lobster combo, and it was perfect. The filet was a perfect medium rare and the lobster was sweet and succulent. We finished with a Kona mud pie. It was like an ice cream cake on top of an Oreo crust! Delicious! read more

Cold, noisy and smoky atmosphere. Wait staff either not available or attentive to service customers. Food quality marginal. No bread available to be served with meals. read more

No reservations, but reservations are highly recommended? WTF? I called and waited on hold after the operator told me they take reservations. Then when I finally get ahold of someone they tell me no reservations. read more

The salmon was flavorful and the serving size was generous. Drinks were tasty and about half the price of other places. Staff was attentive.

We didn't feel like leaving the hotel and decided to walk downstairs to try out this onsite restaurant. I wasn't sure because the reviews weren't that great. We were pleasantly surprised. I understand they have a daily happy hour, we unfortunately didn't make it. As to our experience, the wait time was minimal. The waitstaff friendly and attentive. The drinks were just good. The meal was delicious, my daughter ordered spaghetti from the children's menu. She ate every bit of it. My husband had a cheeseburger which he enjoyed. I had the lamb chops they were also very good. We also ordered appetizers for the room a few days after this visit and again everything was delicious. If you aren't feeling like venturing out and you are staying at the Hale Koa, definitely give this restaurant a try. read more

We love dining outdoors at Bibas. The menu has the food variety you are wanting to eat. I like their catch of the day. The servers are very good about letting you customize your meal. I like the papaya seed dressing with everything. read more

I had the fish and chips. The fish was a very large cut of cod and was delicious. the chips were just okay. They serve the same drinks here as they do poolside...overpriced super sweet slushies with very little alcohol. I would've preferred better drink options. read more

The restaurant is in the Hale Koa military resort hotel. Food is superb. Had the guava bbq baby back ribs. OMG! It was TWO huge racks with all the trimmings. The ribs were perfect! Super friendly staff and the prices were decent compared to the Waikiki strip hotels and restaurants. If you're military and staying at the Hale Koa or other hotels in Honolulu, by all means, go to Bibas. read more

So disappointed in our meal. The fish was dry Abd over cooked. The mashed potatoes were instant potatoes. The zucchini was tasteless. Food was cold. Had a very abrupt waiter too. Never will go there again. Food quality has gone done tremendously. Ambiance. None. Soup was extremely salty. read more

During our recent trip to Hawaii we opted to have dinner here at Biba's. From a couple to a Large group of twenty-one the staff and meals did not disappoint. Under the current protocol reservations are a must. Especially with a Large group. Ever with twenty one they were able to accommodate. A Specail Malhalo to Greg (Manager) for making this happen. But even for the night where just my Wife n I dined. The staff was attentive, friendly, Truthful and Funny. The meals were Outstanding. I would recommend the patio if you can get it. It gets smoky in inside. When they get busy. Again thank you for your Hospitality. Until we meet again. read more

Pro: Great service and decent food. The staff was able to seat a large party without reservations and certainly put the "Aloha spirit" on full display. Items were reasonably priced, considering the relative high costs of Waikiki. Con: Everything else on the menu was just "okay, at best". The ahi tuna was slightly under-seasoned yet overcooked and the cajun shrimp Alfredo was on the bland side. Given the reputation of great seafood in Hawaii, you don't expect the best dish to be the burger or the chicken. Bottom Line: great service mitigated a lower rating for underwhelming dishes. read more

They offer everyone reservations but then they tell you it's only for military people when you reach the place. My dad is 72 years old with severe asthma and he walked 25 minutes to the restaurant. If they are serving military only, and they have a note on the hotel website, they shouldn't offer reservations through other public websites for everyone where you can't really go through their policy word by word. Very unacceptable customer service and rude staff. I am sorry I have considered them during my vacation. Attached a screenshot after they kicked us with no consideration to his health condition. read more

Well, I've come here many times for the French Onion Soup and, yes, it's still one of the best I've ever had, next to my Dad's. But that's where it ends, sadly. The other items we ordered were not good at all and the service was very, very poor. 1. Children's spaghetti - just a few cents worth of poorly cooked noodles with maybe a couple of tablespoons of sauce and one, hard as a rock meatball. 2. Tempura Shrimp - 3 way over cooked, over breaded and soggy at the same time - quite the accomplishment there Bibas... and the "jar" sauce was just as bland. 3. Long Island Iced Tea. A whole lot of ice in a small glass with an overly sweet juice and little alcohol. Waaay overpriced for what was basically citrus water. 4. Lettuce Wraps. A super SMALL cup of poorly cooked dark meat chicken that looked like the scraps from someone's leftover Teri chicken meal, a few lettuce leaves (not butter lettuce), shredded carrots, bean sprouts, cilantro and basil with a decent sauce = fail. All in all, we should have returned everything to the kitchen except for the French Onion Soup, but we were tired and we were hungry and had an equally hungry and tired five year old with us - need I say more? If, and I mean IF I come back, it will only be for the Soup. One star for the soup and that's where it ends. read more

No good food, thin chicken tenders, greasy fries, and weak shrimp rolls. Don't be fooled, there's much better food choices near the hiton Hawaiian village. Don't fall under temptation of staying in the resort and stopping here when you can walk near by and get excellent cuisine elsewhere, even if it's Hard Rock Cafe 5 minutes away. read more

Meh. The hours are lame, food is so-so. Not a ton of options, and portions aren't great. It's semi convenient which makes it rate a little higher. I had the filet (tasted microwaved), and we also had the spaghetti (tiny portion), sang the ribeye (ordered rare, came well). Not our favorite. read more

The food was delicious, in fact so good everyone's plate was completely finished. The staff were friendly and accommodating to our large group. The food came out in a timely manner. Definitely a good spot. One note is to not expect a large portion, so if your a big eater you'll probably be disappointed by how much you get for what you pay. read more

5 star service. We've been here on several occasions pre and post Covid and the service has been second to none. Our parties have been larger than average and the waiters have done an outstanding job with a big smile and a great attitude. We were there a few nights ago, and seated at the very last minute as we had a few stragglers arriving later than our reserved time. Waikiki was drenched with rain and most restaurants were full or closed due to staff shortages and the weather. As soon as we were seated the drinks and appetizers were ordered. Stephen was our waiter and was amazing and even with the restaurant still somewhat full, we got our drinks and appetizers in record time and soon after our main entrees. Their posted closing was at 830 but Stephen let us sit and "talk story" with our friends and family for another hour or so until the cleaning crew arrived. The food is good for the prices. The steaks we had were cooked well and precisely to order, though a bit under seasoned. The salmon, shrimp and lobster were also good. The food isn't the best you'll have but you're at the Hale Koa on one of the nicest stretch of beach in Waikiki, enjoying the company of family and friends who you haven't seen in awhile with service fit for a king. read more

So I'm a hotel employee and decided to try bibas with my family for lunch one day! My server was Elsa and she was wonderful! We had the chicken Caesar salad w/ chicken creole soup, the turkey panini ( sub fries for potato chips). The chicken Caesar salad was served without Parmesan cheese which we thought was a little strange. The turkey panini was excellent however the sandwich w/fries and the soup and salad cost $28.00! I was a little surprised but quality was good and service was excellent! read more
