    2025 was my first introduction to Fishcake in Kaka'ako, Hawai'i. A shout out to Prolific Yelp Elite buddy Irene M. for introducing this very cool place to me! Fishcake focuses on promoting over 250 local artists, rotating test cafe vendors, vintage finds, designers, and so much more! It's a women owned business that also highlights culinary test pop up vendors such as Aloha Matcha and Bintana; Art and design hub featuring local artists, craft classes, and more! A hodgepodge of trendy pop ups, artists, workshops and a great place to hang out with your friends and family! This is a trendy, unique artsy place where you can grab a table and munch on delicious food and beverages made by new and upcoming local chefs. Parking may be a challenge on special event days. Free self-parking on Kamani Street or in store parking lot (very limited parking spaces) PHONE: (808) 593-1231 A bathroom is available within the premises. Fantastic service here! Value priced unique artwork, craft beverages, and chef culinary meals price right.

    Everything that you look for in a community is here! Small businesses, lots of fun activities/events and homely feel in the middle of the concrete jungle. Fishcakes always got something going on but they're known for their crafts and ceramics. If you're in ward area, go check them out!

    Kynd Tea: Golder Hour & Guava Princess

    How cute and odd to have a furniture store doing food and drink service pop-ups! I personally loved it because after eating you can kind of explore and walk off all the good food you ate. Anyways, we came when Yuji Ramen was running his cold specials. It was absolutely delicious. It felt a little taboo since we were eating cold ramen with fruits, raw fish, and noodles. It surprisingly worked really well. We ended up moping the whole thing and it didn't leave you feeling bloated, rather clean!! If you ever get the chance you should try Yuji's ramen! It's such an interesting take. As for Kynd tea we tried 3 different drinks and the one I recommend is the Guava princess. It didn't taste too creamy, it was pretty thick, refreshing, and just yummy overall. It's difficult to explain but trust me! If you love guava you would love this drink. Overall, Come visit fishcake!! It's so cool to see food/drink vendors! As well as all the art and furniture in the store. They also have classes for pottery and other stuff! I'll definitely be back for all the food Pop-ups though!

    Artsy furniture store? A venue for small foodie businesses? An event space? Fishcake is all of the above... Located in the industrial part of Honolulu's Kaka'ako district, you can find jewelry, tables, plants, pillows, etc. Just walk around and browse... it's good to get ideas and see creative works! I came here twice - mostly for food. I had Shave ice on a Saturday and Jian Bing on a Tuesday. Also, mabuhaylicious made her debut with mochi banana bread on 8-6-24... CONGRATULATIONS!

    When I first heard of Fishcake in Kakaako, I assumed it was a restaurant or kitchen that specialized in fishcakes. Sure enough, I was wrong lol. The name is very deceiving and the place is an unsuspecting furniture store that hosts pop ups or events to keep things interesting in the area. I've been here twice already for pop ups and both times, it was a memorable experience. Sometimes there is parking in front (depends on the pop up or event they are hosting at the venue). There are about 4 stalls but other than that, parking is wherever you can find a spot. Sometimes you'll find a free stall, other times you'll have to pay to park in a garage or street metered parking. There's a lot of no parking signs so make sure to read before you park your vehicle. You don't want to come back to a citation or your vehicle being towed. Customer service from everyone has been quite pleasant and the place is kept clean. There are several tables you can dine on inside if you wish to dine there. The floor is quite organized and well lit. Cool spot to check out for furniture, a pop up or an event being hosted there.

    Fishcake is an artist haven with all sorts of artisan goods. What makes this place popping is the test kitchen in the front serving up a daily rotation of delicious treats. On Saturday, we enjoyed udon noodles and shave ice! The curry udon was great. Homemade and prepared fresh. Highly recommend checking instagram because there are options to make a reservation for your bowls in case they run out. The shave ice is also so good and so melt in your mouth. Love an absolute smooth ice that is almost creamy! The hojicha was my favorite but we also got the matcha and strawberry. Before leaving, couldn't leave without picking up a few lattes from the fridge. Everything here is cash or Venmo, so be prepared! The only challenge here is the parking. The street has really limited parking and there's currently construction going on that makes it worse. Do not park illegally or you could risk being towed! Most people move in and out quick so just be patient.

    i love fishcake and how multi-purpose this building is! There is 4 parking stalls in the front of the shop. otherwise good luck with street parking if there is any available. In the front there is a little kitchen space where they have rotating vendors. Sometimes they have about 2/3 vendors per day. Check their instagram to see who might be popping up. In the back of the store there is art and they also do workshops (mostly ceramic classes i think). Sometimes they do little events at night too and bring a whole bunch of different vendors in which is really fun.

    Went to Fishcake to taste the Kaya Toast at their pop-up, Lovejoy's Bakery. I also tried their Miso Soba Cookie which was Yum. Kynd Tea was there, and I highly recommend the Lilijoy Refresher. I don't taste calamansi in drinks enough! Such a great space to enjoy new foods and look at local art.

    Fishcake...grounded fish and or other seafood mixed with a binding item along with any ingredients that may otherwise be thrown away which then is usually fried or steamed and is a great meal or an accent garnish to add that flair...not quite! This uniquely artsy furniture and home decor shop is home to various artists including the current Maneki Neko show which I absolutely love being Japanese and have been educated throughout my childhood of it's representation hold very dear to me and seeing the various visions of different artists is breathtaking! This review is actually celebrating it's 15th birthday...what!?! Seriously yes and what a celebration as many of it's friends all came out and embraced this lovely place. Honobono sampler bites and sips, @hawaii_an_napua stunning sweets, @sweetie_hnl, Dj @fernsnstuff and a bunch of local artists made it a night of amazing inspiration. They not only have items for sale in their shop they bring in creative minds in every thing you can't imagine that they do in their Fishschool! @fishschoolhawaii is their Instagram page is a must as they post all classes online and it goes FAST! Did you every want to make jewelry, pottery, tapestry or just painting and don't know where to begin this is a great way to pick the instructor's brain as away and learn. Walk away with a piece of your own creation. You are your own inspiration and the incubator cafe is a place I'd love to have the opportunity to enjoy. Like making fishcake It's the little things brought together creates the greatest joy. Thank you!

    So much fun in Bonnie's cookie decorating class! Not only was it fun and educational but the cookies tasted amazing! I plan on taking more classes with her!

    Went to see our family friend's art (Chiho) on display for the Just for Now exhibit. My company made the decals for the show door so I went to the opening to show my support. They had a very strong female Japanese presence (since that's what the show was showcasing) and I loved it! Can't wait to see the new shows and check out the food showcases (there is a different vendor daily).

    Part time cute furniture store and interior design center, part time coffee shop, part time art school, and soon to be home of Gentle Beast floral creations... Where do I even begin? This cool spot is a mix of contemporary, sometimes abstract, and hipster all rolled into one. Safe to say that above all, this is definitely a spot for creatives to come together. Tucked away on Kamani Street, this hidden gem offers a little bit of something for everyone. From a wide collection of local vendors and artisans to occasional popups, this is the perfect spot when you're on the hunt for unique and one-of-a-kind gifts or statement pieces for your home. This review comes specifically for their recent addition to their space--fish school! Think art classes for all levels! Since the pandemic started I've been itching to get my hands messy and find other ways to let my creative juices flow. When I saw that they were adding a bunch of pottery classes to their schedule, I knew I had to jump at the opportunity and I'm glad I did! Immediately after opening their most recent pots class, they sold out! The class I took was a two week session that met on Saturday afternoons. First class was a three hour class and second was a 1 hour and a half class. During the first class we learned the basics and got straight into creating our masterpieces. Our instructor Dane was great--kind, intelligent, and all around fun to be around, I had an amazing time! The second class was shorter and majority of the time was spent painting and and giving life to our creations from the week before. I'll definitely have to be back to visit the store during the day as I've always been intrigued, looking at all the crafts and creations throughout the store while on my way to art class.

Buyer beware here is their response for me to take care of this on my own. For the price and support this is a 1 star would be zero if possible. That said, here are some suggestions you may consider to help manage or improve the condition: Use a wood filler or repair putty to smooth out the split area, followed by a light sanding and touch-up stain. Apply furniture wax or sealant to protect the wood from absorbing excess moisture in the future. Maintain stable room conditions by keeping the furniture away from direct sunlight, heaters, or damp areas to minimize further expansion or contraction. Engage a local furniture repair service if you'd prefer a professional touch-up. We'll be closing the claim since this type of concern is not covered under the warranty.

Advertised as up to 70% off. We could not find a dresser that was deeply discounted in that way. Nor were there any style of dressers we liked that were in stock AND under $1000 (except one that looked like a mountain person build it behind the barn. Someone is into that look). My salesperson coached me to photo the SKU of anything we liked so they could check stock. When we finally found something we liked that was in stock, we paid and set the delivery. This piece of furniture looks great. I really wanted to spend $800 but for $1300 we got a well built, mid-century modern-ish dresser that should last 20+ years. And it is not something we had to build (looking at you City Mill). The day before delivery we realized we never got the text to inform us of the scheduled window. Called the store and and discovered it hadn't been scheduled. Our sales person was in the store and they got on the phone with me to reschedule. They were sincerely apologetic. A couple days later we received a thank you card in the mail. The process isn't easy because furniture is so expensive. And most of it takes months to arrive.

The interior design of all my previous homes were very "pieced together"; it was never a cohesive theme. If anything...the theme would be cluttered. But my boyfriend is completely opposite.

As we talked about how we want to decorate our future home, we knew we had to find unique pieces that would match the color scheme of the condo and something we would like. On a whim, we checked out Red Knot and stumbled upon the couch that met all of our criteria: 1. Gray 2. Unique look with the white stitching, not so boxy design and it came with two little stools that would be stored in the armrest 3. Had a chaise Plus it had a matching ottoman with storage and can turn into a bed. We loved it. But of course we had questions. And, it's like the furniture gods heard our prayer and sent us Derek.

Mom had seen an advertisement on television for Ashley HomeStore. She had been to other furniture stores where she couldn't find what she wanted. Mom also had a brochure from the Navy Exchange, showing an Ashley cabinet that she was interested in, but the NEX didn't have it and it was out of stock in California, too. The combination of shopping around; watching the television commercial; and having a photo in a brochure motivated my mom to ask me to take her to Ashley HomeStore! I'll do anything for my mom. She spends a lot of time in the living room where she wants to replace some tables with better looking cabinets with storage space. I want mom to be happy, so, I held in my opinion and drove her to Ashley HomeStore. There are five Ashley locations on Oahu and mom chose to go to the one in Honolulu, on Ward Avenue (not the one in Salt Lake area, the Beretania Street store, the Kapolei location, nor Aiea). There was a free parking lot on the corner of Queen Street and Ward Avenue. Inside the fabulously decorated showroom, we were greeted by Andrea. She was kind, efficient, and helpful! She listened to my mom and answered all of my sister's questions promptly. (I texted photos to my sister who lives with mom.) Even though Andrea just started working here three months ago, she was able to navigate the computer system, while knowing the inventory on the floor. She was knowledgeable about the discounts (currently 5 percent off because of the Anniversary Sale), delivery schedule, and fees ($149 including assembly). Andrea was very thoughtful and observant - she offered my mom a seat and moved furniture around for us to look at different angles. Excellent! The transaction flowed so smoothly. I was really impressed! Andrea changed my apprehensions about Ashley HomeStore into a Five-Star Review because of her professionalism, positive attitude, and friendly personality! Mom was thrilled because she will receive her new cabinets the day before Mother's Day! Perfect! Next time I need furniture, I won't hesitate to shop at Ashley HomeStore... And ask for Andrea at the Ward Avenue location! P.S. In regards to price, mom thought that it would cost more! She was pleasantly surprised that the total bill was less than expected!
