Cocktail tastes to new heights! First time here and I really…read moreloved the vibes coming in. Entire vinyl wall full of great music and area you can play and listen to music. The cocktails that are served are also extra delicious. They all sound super funky, but I challenge you to try them all. It was a mixed bags of flavors that cater to a lot of different taste buds. There would be one I really like, but my friend wouldn't like it. Then she would like the next one, and I wouldn't like it. It wasn't an overall standard, it was how the drink mixed with the persons taste buds. That was something I enjoyed. I could sit at this bar for ages and just have the bartenders make me what ever they want. Also the bartenders listen to options and keys that you like. I let one of them know I like a mezcal smoky, but give me something different then the usual. He gave this amazing mix that I honestly couldn't describe, but I for sure loved it. Can't wait to take more of my friends and try all the cocktails again!

Came here for Saturday brunch buffet and we weren't disappointed at all! Food was outstanding-…read more service was top notch - and we loved the environment! Perfect place for a weekend brunch with the perfect selection of yumminess ! Had reservations so we got seated immediately only holdup was getting parking on a busy Saturday at the mall. They have a huge drink selection and we got virgin mimosas and coffee and they brought us water too. Since it was a buffet we got to go at our own pace. Food highlights the soft scrambled eggs w/ cheese - if you prefer the soft scramble this is for you - the salmon was cooked to perfection- breakfast meats of Portuguese sausage and chicken sausages were both fantastic- grilled veggies was good but served cold and I prefer it served hot - grilled corn on the Cobb very sweet - strip loin is excellent and I loved the chimichurri and horseradish served on the side makes it yummy. my sisters loved the lemon blueberry French toast too and another favorite the coconut lime scones and mango tart!!! I think the only item that didn't send us to the moon was the pork ribs as it lacked the flavors we were hoping for but didn't get. They kept both our plates cleared and water & coffee filled. Coffee is excellent and we enjoyed our mimosas. The staff are helpful and friendly and a return is scheduled for the next trip to Hawaii

This review is for the recently opened speakeasy,Hush, which is located upstairs. I made…read morereservations through IG and if you go on their site you have to click on hush on Open Table. I made reservations for 5:45 PM however when I checked in at Pint and Jigger, I was notified that the reservations were for P&J and not the speakeasy which opens at 6 PM. Therefore I believe that there are still kinks to be made with their reservation system. We waited at the bar until it was sorted out. You walk through a whiskey wall and walk upstairs to the speakeasy. They used a lot of the decor from the former location known as Harry's Emporium. We were the only ones for about an hour so we were able to maximize the bartender's time. Max is an excellent bartender and informed us that they are only open on the weekends for now. He's the only bartender and they are still working out staffing issues. No food at the moment. The theme is New Orleans/French. The drinks and music all have that vibe. The room is dim but not too dark. We left around 7:30 PM when two other couples showed up. We will definitely be returning.

The bad: Arrived at 5:30pm for a happy hour that ends at…read more6pm. We sat at the bar and ordered 2 drinks (a beer and a HH special) and an appetizer. The drink was awesome. The Bacon as amazing. 15 minutes later we had empty glasses. Sat at the bar for 20 minutes with empties until we were finally asked if we needed something else. 5 minutes after happy hour ended and no HH discount for the second round. Either a corporate conspiracy, or inattentive bartender. Junk either way. Only an $8 difference in price, but the principal ya know?! The good: Food is amazingly top notch. Always have good happy hour prices for drinks..Don't recommend drinks after HH. Really really good, but not worth the cost.

Had a glass of wine and baby had watered down lemonade. Her drinks were put in plastic cups with covers and those horrible paper straws. Eyes always bigger than my stomach, we ordered: - Cornbread - when i grabbed it I thought would be super dense but really wasn't. I thought it was very corny and tasty. Lightly toasted. Honey drizzle which wasn't too sweet...or maybe I just ate the parts that didn't have. Baby ate almost 1.5 pieces and even liked the Jalapeno Butter that I just dabbed on her bread. She said wasn't spicy but think she just didn't have enough. - Bone Marrow - lit it on fire to burn off the alcohol. Pretty sure it ddin't get it all so I cut baby off once I realized it. Other than needing some salt, really good. Choke mushrooms on top. One half was scrawny, but hubs had the other half for leftovers and choke marrow. YUM. - Sunchoke and Brussels - YUM. Baby ate some but was not really thrilled about it. I loved it. - Scallop and Mushroom Risotto - YUM. Delish. Baby liked it too. So much leftovers of everything. Realized when we ate it for leftovers it was all pretty oily and needed a pinch of salt. But otherwise great. Staff really nice and helpful. Love that the place is spread out and open. Bathrooms are not assigned which I'm sure can get gross, but is great to not have to wait for just the women's. There is a big stall which was perf since baby is potty training and had to go #1 and #2! Only thing missing was a hook to hang my purse and her bag. Great dinner...but if anyone is listening...bring back the shrimp and grits!!!

First time visiting to celebrate my friends birthday. Inside was nicely lit and clean. Our server…read morewas nice and introduced himself and mentioned specials and what they ran out of for the evening. However, his service was not great but not terrible. We ordered drinks and took around 15 mins to come, then we looked for our server to order our food. The appetizers cane out in a timely manner but our entrees took quite a while. The Duck Confit was yummy! I thought the duck was going to be super dry, but when you eat it with the jam that came with it, it's very good. I requested for a little bit more of the jam but was given just balsamic glaze... My friend said her scallop risotto was watery and not the same as the last time she went. My bfs prime rib was okay. Bone marrow was okay. The chicken pasta, octopus appetizer, salad, and mac n cheese were lacking flavor and tasted okay. I would recommend dining here if you do not have plans after.

I was just skipping around town exploring wanting to check-in to as many places as I could like the responsible Yelp elite that I am and then I find this amazing hole on the wall speakeasy. The lovely gentleman in the front welcomed us in to take a look around and I asked him if I could take photos for yelp and he told me that if I was going to write a review, I had to join them. So of course, I took the invite and decided to stay for a little while. We sat at a nice area. A perfect little place. I just want to take a snapshot and keep it in my memory so I can emulate it and turn it into my home study. I could stay here forever. The vibes were on point. The server recommended drinks that he thought we would like, and we loved both of them. I don't remember what the drinks were called, but mine had a blueberry taste to it, and my friend had a mock tail, but some sort of Yuzu to it. We also shared a $15 charcuterie graze. 10 out of 10 would recommend being curious and opening doors to finding out that there's a speakeasy randomly in an area you never thought would be there. What an amazing experience.

Whether you're looking for coffee, tea, cocktails or just a quick drink they have a lovely selection.

We were in Pearl city and did a little shopping at Walmart and we got very hungry so we decided to…read moredrive around and we found this restaurant. We both ordered the ribeye steak, mashed potato, asparagus and fried rice. Both ribeye steaks were cooked to the exact doneness. The size of the ribeye steak was pretty big. Luckily I was very hungry so I finished my steak. The asparagus was very delicious and the mashed potato was very delicious too. Our server, Elijah did an excellent job answering any questions and was very attentive to what we ordered. When the meals came in. He even asked to double check the doneness of the steak by cutting it right down the middle and it was cooked to perfection. I don't remember the last time I went to a steak restaurant other than my birthday, so it's very rare to go to a restaurant and order steak. So this was a large treat to me. The restaurant had a very nice atmosphere with the lighting dim and the music very soft. This restaurant was very busy luckily we just wanted a seating for two even though they asked if we had a reservation and we didn't so we got lucky.

Little Joe's steakhouse is conveniently located on Nimitz Highway across from City Mill…read more We went to this location several times and enjoy the food and service. This visit we came for a late Father's Day celebration. Of course we all ordered steak since this is a steakhouse! We made reservations and we're probably seated at 5 PM. Since we were here early, restaurant was not very crowded at that time, but did fill up pretty good while we were there. One thing that I don't like about Little Joe's steakhouse is that they have the music playing very loudly that it makes it difficult to have conversations over dinner and even give your order to your server. We ordered the filet mignon, ribeye steak, chicken tenders and had sides of potatoes au gratin, sautéed mushrooms, grilled asparagus, fried rice with steak, and garlic fries. The food is consistently good, but I was disappointed in my steak as I ordered the ribeye to be cooked medium, but the steak I received was well done. It was still tasty, but definitely overcooked. My dad ordered the filet mignon medium but it came back rare. This surprised me, because in the past, they've cooked their steaks consistently to order, but cooking a good steak to well done is a definite, no no. Our server, however, was excellent, prompt and very polite. Ambience 3 stars Food 3.5 stars Service 4 stars

JJ was also the mastermind behind Dolan's famous pizza...the hook they devised to distinguish their Irish pub from that of their former boss and fellow Irishman, Don Murphy, owner of Murphy's across the street from Black Shamrock. When an opportunity to take over the former O'Toole's location opened up, JJ jumped at the chance, and split from Dolan's to hang his own shingle, now known as Black Shamrock. JJ bought his pizza expertise with him, and in my opinion, is now the best pie in town...plus his Duck drumsticks can't be missed, which aren't available at Dolan's. JJ, Danny Dolan, and Don Murphy are all still friends, so have no worries, Chinatown is still the place to go for St. Patrick's day because they're still joining together to sponsor the annual festivities...and of course Murphy's is still the place to go if you're looking for Corned Beef or Shepherd's Pie downed with Guinness...but if it's a New York slice you're looking for, there's no need to go up to Bethel anymore, just stumble across the street to Black Shamrock.
