Not to mention, this sports bar has been a fish bowl on the corner of Kapiolani since I was a kid! I don't come here often, but when I do, I mainly come here for the food, which is delicious... and worth the 10 years it takes to come out. Just don't go there if you're looking to eat pronto cause you know that they're putting all the love and care into your food. HAHA. Honestly, that's literally the only downside of TJ's... the food wait. But as I said, it's worth the wait if you're willing. Make sure you get their famous Mozzarella Sticks aka CHEESE LOGS! Their bar has everything under the sun, with a blender! I always apologize to Kristy and Truong for having to blend my Daiquiris... I know it's extra labor. Sorry! They host a lot of events, so the place can get quite packed... especially during sports... hence TJ's "sports" bar. The most welcoming sports bar in Honolulu.

I got their Korean Chicken lunch plate and my friend got the Chinese Style Seared Fish lunch plate. Not only were the portions huge, but the food was delicious! Vibe: The bar is spacious and never feels overly crowded, even when they're busy. Sometimes the service is a little slow when they're busy, but the lunch service was ridiculously fast and the servers are always super nice. Bathrooms are clean and there's darts boards with ample space around them. Parking: The paid parking lot is huge and always has stalls. Street parking is also available around the bar.

It got a bit loud at times but we were still able to talk. The waitress was pretty attentive to us with refills on our drinks which was nice. The food was good tasting, especially the pork chop and garlic chicken. We ordered the family set that was able to feed 4-6 people that was the perfect amount. Parking at this location is a little tough. They offer valet or you can find street parking or there's a tiny garage lot that you can pay for. Overall a good experience.

I Remember When…read more.... A tribute to icon, legendary Colin Nishida, founder, visionary, chef, friend - taken from us too early in life .... I remember Colin used to be the "kitchen mama" in one of the local bars Colin opened Side Street Inn on Hopaka Street, then a small (and I mean SMALL) little local bar with delicious local style foods Colin expanded the Hopaka street location but it was not enough.... Then Colin opens the Kapahulu location .... Then receives an award for great chef Then expanded further the Hopaka location and all the while.... His original fried rice and pork chops remain top of the list Yes, the menu has expanded, and the flavors remained very "local" Yes, it is pricey as today, there is no food dish that price is less than $20. This is a family style dining restaurant. For example. The original fried rice $26 feeds six people. Go figure! I won't beat this thing to death and will end it by saying Colin will always be missed, his food remains still same and tasty as he had designed it to be. Staff friendly as ever. Price? I've always been a believer that you get what you pay for and then some. Side street Inn is the epitome of you get what you pay for and then some Go there or be square

There is no official paperwork for service animals and asking for documentation like that shows a complete lack of understanding of the law. Rather than deal with a power-tripping security guard who clearly had no idea what he was talking about, we chose to leave. Pretty ridiculous experience and not a place I'd recommend if this is how guests are treated.

Holy smokes, I didn't realize how good their food was!…read more I believe they changed their menu not too long ago and it was such a pleasant surprise. I frequently visit this bar to drink and play darts mainly, or to watch football, but this time, my main focus was to eat. Their new menu didn't disappoint at all and their service is always quick and friendly. It's a pretty reasonable price, considering this is in Kaimuki.

The service is efficient and straightforward, no fluff, and overall it's just a solid sports bar to hang out and watch a game.

Ala Moana DnBs is always a fun time. They have ample seating area so even on their busiest nights,…read morethe wait isn't too long. It's also a good place to host bigger events or parties because they have some private rooms you can rent and have them cater for. The food is always good. Pretty much what you'd expect from a gaming place! They have a very wide selection menu so even our vegan friend was able to find something to eat. The parking is fine, since they share parking with the mall. So if you go at night time after the rest of the mall is closed, lots of parking. During the daytime might be a little more tricky to find nearby parking. The music inside is a little loud so if you're looking to have a deep conversation with someone, this might not be the place for it. More of a fun scene!

Shack Mililani has that classic, old‑school Mililani vibe--the kind of neighborhood bar and grill…read morethat's been around long enough to feel like part of the town's DNA. Tucked into the older part of Mililani, it still carries the spirit of the spot that once housed Chuck's, and it remains a go‑to for casual eats, cold drinks, and catching a game. The menu hits all the comfort‑food cravings. The short rib plate is one of the standouts--tender, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a local bar favorite. Their wings come in a bunch of flavors and are always solid, especially when you're settling in for sports. Today's visit was another reminder of why this place sticks around. The Guac Burger was hearty and messy in the best way, the potato skins were crispy and loaded, and the Mama Mud Pie... still undefeated. It's the dessert I can never skip--rich, nostalgic, and the perfect finish, sad to say Shack does not carry this delicious slice BUT Raspberry Cheesecake ha Marie

Service - 2.5 stars Ambiance- 3 stars…read moreFood and drink- 5 stars This was my first time in years visiting the Shack in Mililani. This place really isn't my vibe, but decided to give it a chance after years last week Friday. First, the parking lot is horrendous. I would throw in the towel and just park on the street if I ever return. The lanes are really narrow and everyone and their children are in this area! I felt like we were totally rushed. We got there around 5:30pm and was already out the door a bit after 6pm because I felt like we were being ushered to leave. The waitress who served us didn't offer my date another drink and sat a family of 5 or 6 right behind us on the lower deck when there were so many other tables that were available. We ordered the Chef's Salad and the Salt and Pepper wings . The highlight was the wings with ranch dressing. Meh. Don't know if I'll be back again.
