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!

The turkey was exceptionally tender, flavorful, and covered in a rich, savory gravy that soaked into the soft bread and paired perfectly with the creamy mashed potatoes. The sides were excellent too. The roasted vegetables were served warm and soft, but still had just enough slight crunch to keep the texture fresh. The cranberry sauce was the perfect sweet-tart contrast and helped balance the richness of the gravy. It was a satisfying, well-rounded plate from start to finish.

Good thing we did because after we were seated and ordered by our favorite server, Pepe, because the place filled up real fast. My friends had potato skins with cheese (no meat), open faced turkey sandwich (turkey was a bit dry in places) and I had Murphy's "Big Salad" and a side of fries. I was celebrating a positive resolution to a big problem so I had myself a "Snakebite" (Guiness & hard cider). For desert we had their yummy Pot de Crème, hot Apple Crisp and a chocolate sundae, No leftovers!!! Always a good sign. Love Murphy's.

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!

Hana Koa has been my favorite brewery for years. I have countless pieces of merch, always come…read morethrough for new beer releases, and the food is phenomenal. Unfortunately, something has changed recently and you can see it throughout recent reviews here, which tells me this is a taught practice by management and not just one shady server. Mainly, being up charged or sold "extras" without disclosing they're actually add ons. Our table of 4 had 3 different sandwiches, 2 burgers and a chicken sandwich. While ordering the server offered each of us, "would you like fries, onion rings, or salad with that?" There was no disclosure of it being additional, and she never used the words add ons or extras. When the bill was received, all 3 that received the sandwiches and "sides" were shocked to see upcharges (example $5.00 extra for 1/4 cup of greens and 2 slices of cucumber) when we were being offered these with our orders. When I asked the server about the charge, I asked why it wasn't disclosed it was extra, and that we only answered her question of which side we wanted because she offered as if it was included, her responses were baffling. The first was "There's nowhere on island that serves fries with a sandwich", to which I said, "but you didn't say it was extra, you offered them as if they were included", she said "it's written on the menu". To note: fries, onion rings, and side salads are listed on the menu, in their own section, separate from the sandwich sections. So while it is written, they know exactly what they're doing when they offer you sides or sauces, and you can see other recent reviews here making the same complaint. This left an extra bad taste for our table as we had come in to help support them after the recent tropical storm left them without power. We were excited to participate in a local event they were hosting and help support them after losing stock and days being closed from the storm, just to have this shady process of being upsold things we didn't order (on a $350+ bill that also included shirts from their merch store). Scuzzy way of thanking your community for coming in and patronizing your restaurant. Really disappointed after years of Hana Koa being my favorite place.

I was there with a couple of friends as Della Au Belatti supporters. There was a great spread of food (sliders, Mac & cheese, Caesar salad, and pizza and a huge selection of beers and non-alcoholic beverages. Great turnout, including KITV who was covering the election outcomes. The waitstaff were great and they offered suggestions of what beers to drink, depending on your taste. Got to meet the owner, Michael, who was on available throughout the event. Nice guy and very customer-oriented. The fact that this place is only a block from where I live is no excuse to go back, now that I've had a taste of what they have to offer. Oh yeah, Michael mentioned having seasonal beers when I asked if they could make a Snakebite (Guinness & Cider). Oh boy!!

The happy hour food menu has a nice selection, it's about $3 off the main menu pricing. The tots were $17 off the happy hour menu and a large order, definitely for sharing. The pork on it was a little dry but the corn, beans pico and sour cream made up for this, tots were fluffy and crispy. We liked this one overall. The ceviche was $26 (not on the happy hour menu), it was a portion for 1-2 people, the fish itself tasted fresh but I wasnt a huge fan of the ceviche flavor, I wish it was more lime/acid forward and would have liked an herbal element like cilantro to spice it up. The wonton chips were not great, they weren't crispy and tasted almost mealy, they also lacked salt, I imagine if they were freshly fried it would have been tastier. Service was very fast and polite. The vibes and seating options were great too. Would return, the empanadas looked tasty.

Everyone was very nice there and the space was a good sports bar to watch the World Cup at. We sat at the bar so we could see the TVs, but there were plenty around the restaurant. The food was mixed reviews. The shrimp fried rice was really good, a bit on the oily side (personally don't mind that) and lacked salt, but that was an easy fix. The special was this pork belly (I think) and honestly it didn't wow me. It was a bit bland and also the amount was so small. The Macaroni salad was good and rice was good. The slaw, to me, was too crunchy and could have marinated longer to soften up. Again, this dish lacked salt. The Pina Coladas, were very tasty and refreshing, but were too sweet so it was hard to get a second one and come close to finishing. I had my partner help me drink it because it was too much. I'd still go again and try other things on the menu and maybe ask for the colada to not be too sweet
