Their gluten free mickey mouse waffles are also so yummy and at a great price. We loved the spam bowl but wish it was a bigger size. Off the Hook is right on the pool side so you can have breakfast, lunch, dinner, or drinks seated right next to the pool. They also have coffee and drinks throughout the day to refill your refillable Aulani cups. The service was great. Everyone was so helpful and sweet. It was nicely decorated, clean, and organized. I can't wait to go back!

They are in a super location - out back of the resort centrally located and squeezed between the edge of the beachfront and the pool deck area. Friendly and helpful folks greeted us and they were quick to seat us and put us in a. "Plumb spot" where we got to enjoy the Pool Party on Thursday night at 415pm. We barely arrived and we've already been partying at the beach/pool while we dine and we've had photos with Moana!

It is hard to find; look for the tiny sign pointing you to the third floor right next to the local place eatery. The inside is fairly large but someone plain. There are self service soft drinks and a small complimentary liquor selection as well including sparkling wine. Around the corner is the food area which features several hot options including JAL's signature beef curry. This is served to you by an attendant (who was not particularly friendly), but of course you can have as many servings as you wish. Overall this is a rather nice Admirals Club thanks to the JAL influence.

We came at 7am which was so nice because it wasn't crowded. We got some extra time with Mickey Mouse in the beginning and since it wasn't crowded, the characters visited our table 2-3 times. The food was great too! We loved the donuts, omelets, lox and bagels, and gluten free minnie mouse waffles! They were SO kind in having gluten free options (gluten free waffles, fruit, gluten free muffins). The gluten free food was delicious. We all loved our food and we really had a great time! Beautiful view and environment too! Dinner- This was absolutely the best dinner we had during our trip. It's a 3 course meal and you get to choose off of the menu. I got the corn chowder, prime rib, and pineapple dessert. My date got the tomato soup, seared ahi, and pineapple dessert. All of the food was amazingggg! We also LOVED our drinks we ordered. We ordered an old fashioned and then our sweet server had the bar whip me up a custom drink! Both were so good! For both meals, the service was amaaaazing! They are so kind and go over and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. They constituently checked in with us, gave us great recommendations, and got us everything we needed. I wish I remembered the name of our waiter at dinner, he was absolutely amazing! *Dinner does not include characters* I would give our experience for both breakfast and dinner a 100/10!

What a fantastic way to start our day and week at the Character Breakfast!…read more The food is awesome for sure - but so is the company (characters) and the ambience is awesome right here in the middle of the resort at Aulani! The service is outstanding and we are so happy and blessed to be here! We were able to greet Mickey & Minnie, Goofy and Stitch at breakfast! We enjoyed macadamia nut pancakes with sweet syrup sauce; Mickey waffles and bacon; a farmer's omelet and potatoes - we had huge portions and the price for 4 (2 kids and 2 adults) was really good for all the food, the live music and the character visits over and over to our table! I also note that we didn't not attend the Luau this trip - which costs $200-$300+ per person (at Aulani). We opted to skip because we've been before and figured we would wait some before taking the kids - a little bit older for the best age to really fully enjoy that aspect of the show. You can get all the pictures with your personal camera/phone/device but know that the character breakfast photos by the photo folks with Mickey are not included - they will offer a $45 photo package to include and featured photo in the cardboard decorated photo frame and a photo pass card representing all the photos taken with Mickey as a family and as individuals at the featured photo session with Mickey during the (breakfast) character meal experience. We made our appointment for the first of the day and joined breakfast at 7am. We were first in line and first for the day - we enjoyed that personally because it was a great time with no crowds and we were able to start the day early and get on to having (more) fun! Alo(w)ha(h) (we're from Arkansas)!

Let's just say the lounge was designed with travelers in mind. Very spacious, bright, clean, and…read morecomfortable. Plenty of seats! No worries of going over capacity ever. We lucked out with seats right in front of where the Honu was parked! I love the convenience of the lounge being right above the departure gates in Terminal 2. (If you flew on Hawaiian Airlines but departing from Terminal 2, you'd have to trek to Terminal 1.) There's a variety of every course: rice, chicken curry, udon, sandwiches, açaí bowl, musubi, drinks, alcohol. Lots of stalls in the clean bathroom, by the kids play area. Im willing to pay for ANA premium economy for lounge access for the convenience and comfort of a long-ish journey! 4.5 stars

I've watched a handful of YouTube vloggers showcasing HNL's ANA Lounge. This exclusive lounge was…read morebuilt above Gate C4 in Terminal 2 of Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. There is a separate jet bridge that connects passengers while boarding the upper cabin of ANA's Airbus 380 Aircraft. There is a regular lounge and a Suite lounge both sharing one same entrance. Me and my other half booked premium economy and was first to get to the regular lounge as my cousin and his other half were both booked in business class having access to the suite lounge as well. The regular lounge had a semi-full bar, a full spread of buffet selection, an udon bar, as well as non-alcoholic beverages with a premium coffee maker serving illy brand coffee. This lounge is spacious, seating area is extensive, especially considering that HNL isn't a very large airport. There are mainly three different types of seating; comfy lounge chairs and sofas with coffee tables line the large floor-to-ceiling windows, providing a spectacular views of the tarmac and runway. If you are going to Tokyo Narita on the A380, you'll see the HONU aircraft just outside the window. Many passengers were airplane spotting as the first Honu was taxiing out and taking off. Long benches with communal tables are another seating that also serves as a workstation. The dining space also has AC power as well as USB outlets. There is also restaurant style with round cocktail tables, rectangular dining tables making it a very nice space to enjoy snacks, cocktails, or full meal before the flight. Food servers and ground staff agents are professional, and friendly. The entire lounge is kept sparking clean including the restrooms located just past the children's play area. Table and counters were constantly wiped down, the air conditioning temperature and ambiance is truly a Hawaiian/Japanese environment.

The food was a mixed bag. The fish sandwich was overcooked and seemed to rely mostly on panko breadcrumbs for flavor rather than seasoning. The smash burger was good, but the patties weren't smashed thin enough to really deliver the crispy texture that makes a great smash burger. The coconut fried shrimp also tasted like a frozen product rather than something made fresh in-house. On the positive side, the pork tacos were excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. They were flavorful, well-prepared, and showed what the kitchen is capable of when everything comes together. Overall, 808 Craft House delivered an average dining experience. While there were a few disappointments, the pork tacos helped redeem the meal. I'd consider coming back, but I'd likely skip some of the items I tried this visit.

We dined there for lunch on a Monday, so naturally, they weren't too busy. We were seated right away and our drink orders were once we were seated. I decided on one of the specials of the month, White Wash. It was a refreshing mix of watermelon juice, cucumber, mint, and vodka. The bartender didn't skimp on the vodka! You can get a free kid's meal with every entree. The nachos count as entrees, and I was definitely feeling the nachos so we ordered the Lobster Nachos and the Mauka to Makai Nachos. With the Mauka to Makai Nachos, you get a very generous serving of poke nachos and kalua pig nachos. Neither plates disappointed. There were cheesy chunks of lobster on my nachos with diced jalapenos scattered on top. The poke was so fresh, and what made the nachos even better were the fresh house made tortilla chips. My kids had the mac and cheese, and cheeseburger meals. The mac and cheese was creamy and velvety. The cheeseburgers had that nice char-broiled taste. Kids eat well at Tavern! The customer service was excellent and with a view overlooking the ocean, I am looking forward to dining at Lanterns again.

Unfortunately, they don't have an elevator, which was a little difficult for my grandmother who was with us. However, we were still able to make it up the stairs slowly but surely. It wasn't busy at all but there was only one waiter/bartender. He was very kind and efficient, but I could tell it was a lot for one person to wait on the whole restaurant! It meant ordering was a little slow, but understandably. The food itself was delicious! The burgers were amazing, honestly would be on a list of top five burgers on the island. The mauka to makai (half kalua pig, half poke) nachos were amazing. The won ton chips were to die for. We also grabbed a mini purse drink - which is definitely enough for two to share! Such a fun concept and actually how I heard of the place. Besides the slightly slow service, no elevator (which sometimes, cannot help), and the AI generated menus, this place is amazing! Plus, a nice view while you eat.
