They have flavored sparking meads which are the popular ones in the islands. Think mild champagne. Not bad They have stools around old barrels. Wish there was a brewery tour but I'm guessing it's super small Not sure it's worth the detour but if you're adventurous give it a go.

OMG -- Tony is truly the best! Oeno Winemaking is an absolute must-visit in Honolulu. The vibe…read morealone is worth the stop: warehouse-style space, incredible artwork everywhere, warm lighting, and a relaxed beachy energy that immediately makes you feel welcome. We booked the last wine tasting of the day and did it pretty last minute, but Tony was beyond accommodating. He was genuinely happy to be there, took his time with us, and shared not just the wines, but his story, the business, and the heart behind it all. You can feel how much passion he has for what he does. And the wine? Fantastic. Tropical, fruit-forward, creative, and eclectic blends. I'm usually a dry red girl and didn't expect to love them as much as I did -- but I was pleasantly surprised across the board. Tony explained each wine with so much energy and knowledge, making the tasting fun and engaging without ever feeling rushed or scripted. He also walked us through the artwork on the walls (some of it his, plus work from other artists), shared the vision behind Oeno, and really made the experience feel personal and special. We ended up buying a couple bottles and will definitely be back to see what new wines he creates next. If you're looking for great wine, great vibes, and an experience that feels authentic and heartfelt -- don't miss Oeno Winemaking.

Tony was new, but he was awesome and helped us select our wines. Noah was extremely knowledgeable; it was great talking to him about my favorite wines and what might be good to try. My favorites were the chocolate orange port, root beer, and dragonfruit. I need to go back again because I had such a nice time! I highly recommend experiencing a wine tasting here.

Being the whiskey lover I am, I just had to make it a priority to visit Ko'olau Distillery while…read morevisiting O'ahu! The first time we visited the distillery was back in 2021. There wasn't much of anything other than the single rickhouse area, so when we went back in 2025 it was nice to see how much they had expanded. A nice, full tasting bar, plenty of seating area (outdoor and indoor), and an expanded rickhouse. The employees are friendly and give great recommendations. Definitely loved seeing how much they've grown in the 4 years since we visited. They had more expressions to try this time around, which was great because I got to do a flight of their releases. My wife got a cocktail which she enjoyed. This place is definitely a good vibe for any whiskey lover visiting O'ahu!

The night we went there were 2 musicians playing great music and taking requests. One even had a trombone! There are lounge couches, high tops and picnic style tables, some indoor, some outdoor under a tent. Nice local art on walls. We loved the craft cocktails especially the Old Fashioned. The tasting board of their different blends was great too! Taco night was some darn good home cooking ! Carlitos is a family run business and you can tell they really care about the food. We had the pork tacos and the pork was amazing! The refried beans were some of the best we ever had. This distillery is fun for couples, families, and groups of friends. There are also some games around for little kids, who were hanging in the outdoor tent. Definitely worth a visit !

If you are looking for a glass of wine and a clean chill environment this is the place for you. The service was good. The description was misleading, we ordered the chocolate tasting tour and did not see an ounce of chocolate (none actually) ... this is more of a blending experience not really wine making from beginning to end. Some of the wine blends we tasted were ok some were not good.

I was craving a poke bowl so I decided to go to Tamura's which is just walking distance from where…read moreI work. I ordered the All Ahi Poke Bowl, and I got the Ahi Sunrise and Ahi Tamura's Sauce. Ahi Sunrise is more of a loaded Spicy Ahi, and you can really feel the heat from the sriracha mayo. As for the Ahi Tamura's Sauce, I liked how flavorful and tangy it was. They don't do samples of the poke but you can ask the staff all about the different types of poke that they have. The cuts of the ahi were HUGE, which was a plus for me. Really satisfied that I had this for my lunch, I told my coworkers about it so they ordered too and were satisfied as well.
