    Happy babies
    Rico I.

    Customer service was amazing! I wish I caught your name for this review but to the young lady working 10/07/25 about 3pm you deserve a million blessings. My boys had so much fun here. We spent maybe 2 & 1/2 hours going through corse. Super cute and super fun!

    Loaded nachos

    The first thing the hubby says as we get out of the truck... mmmmm what's that smell! Haha we walked in and he realizes it's coming from the mini golf. He was already planning to eat after we finished playing haha Service received from those who helped was great! They even took my jokes and interacted with my children when they asked questions. My kids had a blast, which included a 2 year old. Haha We also had an infant with us which required a stroller, when I say stroller like the full travel system and it's not like a compact size stroller. We were able to bring the stroller with us into all 18 holes and had no trouble going through the courses even though this place wasn't exactly huge. Food was good! We got to try free samples of the sausage, but we ordered: 1-plate of the brisket, pork belly with mac n cheese and rice 1- plate of the brisket, pulled pork with Mac salad and rice 1-pulled pork nachos 1-Mac n cheese Which my husband and kids enjoyed! They especially loved the brisket!!! He complimented the smoked items and even the baked beans that came with my Nachos which he ate. Hahaha And even tho my kids were done eating their food they still ate some of my nachos. Unfortunately, they didn't have any water available, but was glad that they allowed us to go and grab our water flasks front the vehicle. For dessert we ordered: 2- shave ice. Upon receiving the order I was told they unfortunately were out of ice cream and on the sign it said toppings were a $1 but was charged $1.50. They had already made the shave ice so we still decided to keep it regardless if there was no ice cream. And as for the overcharged toppings, When I brought it up, we were gonna get whatever refund we were supposed to get, instead decided to get a drink and pay the difference. But they were friendly enough to just give the drink without paying any difference due to not having ice cream and over charging topping. Other than that my husband and I had a good family Sunday outing with our kids ( 7,6,2 y/o & a NB) Tropics Mini golf was close to home where we didn't have to go to town or the other side of the island.

    Pulled pork sliders

    A super fun activity to play with friends/family or even on a date! Located behind Down to Earth Pearlridge. You can choose to play 9 or 18 holes. Before or after you play, they serve Texas style BBQ - their meats are smoked and cooked slowly for 8-10 hours which makes it extra tender and yummy! This is everything we got - Brisket Chili Bowl (new menu item), Loaded Tots, Pulled Pork Sliders, Brisket Plate, Bentos - pulled pork and pork belly. The brisket chili bowl, loaded tots, and pulled pork sliders were my favorites!!! The brisket plate was a bit tough the day I went which was a little disappointing. They also have shave ice and other frozen treats! You can make your reservations online. General admission fee is $12.75 and kama'aina/military fee is $10.95. NOTE: they are closed on Tues & Wed.

    We've come here several times but it's been about 3 years. Many changes have happened and it looks great. We loved the added pond with koi. The food was great. Prices are really good too. The tater tots were crispy and crunchy! All 6 of us got bento's. It was plenty of food for one person. Service was great. The guy that was taking our order was patient with our family of 6. He actually got us in earlier than we expected. We will definitely be coming again very soon. We all had a great time!

    If you blink you might miss the turn into the parking lot. This is the sign you are looking for, Enjoy!

    Looking for a little family fun out of the sun in Oahu?! Tropics Mini Golf is where it is at!!! The putt putt course is covered by a lush and tropical canopy. The course is dynamic and fun... it really captures the essence of the islands! The BBQ (non Hawaiian bbq) was the best we had on island and it's reasonably priced. They also have Shave ice on site which was the perfect treat to wrap up our fun family outing.

    Shaved ice

    Amazing ! We had so many kids with us and it was a time ! This is tucked away right by the down to earth so we got some snacks before we went but no need they had shaved ice and snacks there and they were huge our kids got to share a couple . The people were friendly and helpful . Such a cute spot for date night !

    Sign out front. Tropics Mini-golf.

    Tropics Mini Golf is located next to the Down to Earth store, in the old Toys R' Us space in across from Pearlridge Center. I've never been to mini golf and we decided it would be a fun thing to try. Works well as a casual date activity. There are 18 holes and the golf course area is 1 1/2 football fields long. I liked that we could choose the color of the gold ball we used. The worker was friendly and explained how everything worked. This is their website, https://tropicsminigolf.com/ and you can find them on IG @tropicsminigolf There are a few different admission rates. General, Kama'aina, military, senior, and kids. They offer the venue for parties/ celebrations and larger groups at different package rates. You can book your Tee Time on their website to guarantee your spot. "Scheduling a tee time has become the new normal at TMG. We have been getting a lot of positive feedback and our customers are enjoying their experience more. The best part of the new system, no waiting to play and it won't be crowded when you come. Setting up a tee time is required to play. We recommend scheduling in advance to guarantee your spot before you come. Its highly recommended on the weekends. You can walk in without scheduling ahead also. If you come in without an advanced reservation we will schedule you for the next tee time we have available. We keep some spots open for groups of 2-3. If your group is 2-3 and you come in or call its possible that we could fit you in even if our tee time system online isn't showing an open time." They offer food including Texas BBQ plates (Our meats are cooked slowly onsite for 8-10 hours. We use our own secret recipe of seasonings and the proper combination of hickory and mesquite wood to make the best BBQ on the island), nachos, tater tots and fries, sides, keiki meals, shave ice and ice cream. We didn't try the food so I can't comment, but it's convenient that they offer it here. There are some tables with umbrellas in the front for dining. The trees and plants were a bit overgrown, but they did a really good job of providing shade. We did lose a ball in the bushes but then we found another ball to use, so win win? ;D When it did rain some of the drizzles fell through. Nothing unbearable though but with heavy rain I'm not sure. As you're out in the open here, there's no covering around the holes. Around the first and last hole there is a waterfall that goes into a koi pond. The fishes are bright and colorful. I think it adds to the ambiance. There were areas that could use some fixing up and maintaining, but overall most of it wasn't super run down. For the price and experience, it's not bad. I liked the Tiki Spinners they had at certain holes. You would spin it and follow the directions on where it landed. These kept the game interesting and fun. There was one hole where after spinning the spinner, I was allowed to throw the ball by hand and that got me a hole in one LOL. Ironic as I was joking about bowling with the golf ball earlier. I'd say if you haven't yet, try it out! Have fun golfing :)

    Located right next to down to earth across from pearlridge mall. They have their own parking in front of the of their entrance. Came in on a Sunday around 3:45pm and there was only a few other groups. Lots of sitting room with benches and umbrellas. It is on a very lush and green course. Bring bug spray as there are mosquitos. It is very pretty with all the trees and a little waterfall with koi fish. It's a cute little course especially for the smaller ones. Took us about an hour or so. They also have food and drinks. Nice little afternoon spot for the family. Prices are very fair and reasonable.

    Beautiful area, fun activity to do IF you don't mind waiting... it wasn't completely busy when me and my fiance went but there was like 2 parties behind us. We aren't great golfers so it took us forever... but being considerate and not wanting to hog the play

    Pulled Pork..& Brisket
    Debra P.

    Raised in Aiea! never heard of this place, until my daughter took the grandkids here 1 month ago. Thought we would check it out since we were at Pearlridge. Place looks pretty inviting from the outside. My grandson age 5 yrs. old wanted to play golf.. Very clean and the food was the bomb! For $15 we had pulled pork & briskets..amazing! You gotta check this place out, they're always Sold Out!! The shave ice was a steal for $4.75 with vanilla ice cream, so smooth and delicious!

    Loaded fries
    Ryan G.

    I was originally planning to head windward side for mini golf but found Tropics on Yelp so decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did! We had so much fun here! The course itself is fairly easy but you get 18 holes for around $10 w/ Kamaaina. What a great deal! They have some pretty tasty food too. There's plenty of parking and the staff was very laid back and inviting.

Anyone with children knows that kids forget and it may happen again without intention. It was an innocent mistake, and there was absolutely no reason for the manager to speak to a child in such an aggressive manner. When I calmly explained that concerns about a child's behavior should be addressed to the parents rather than directed aggressively at the child, the manager became combative and dismissive instead of apologizing or handling the situation professionally. A family attraction should know how to treat families with basic respect. The issue was the manager's attitude and lack of professionalism. What should have been a fun family outing was overshadowed by an unpleasant interaction with someone who clearly lacks the temperament for customer-facing management with young children and families. I won't be returning, and I would encourage other families to boycott this establishment. This is absolutely not the type of environment they want for their children.

The little rhymes at every hole are a cute touch too. It was giving Jumanji vibes. We went on a Friday at around 4pm.

Bay View strikes an impressive balance between the two. The ball-tracking technology is excellent, the bays are well maintained, and whether you're dialing in wedges, working on dispersion, or just enjoying a casual round with friends, everything works exactly as it should. I've been to Topgolf locations across the mainland, and honestly, Bay View gives them real competition. In some ways, I'd argue it's even better. Instead of staring at parking lots or city skylines, you're hitting balls surrounded by lush tropical scenery with Hawaiian trade winds and mountain views. It's an experience you simply can't recreate on the mainland. The food, drinks, and service all complemented the atmosphere, making it easy to spend several hours here without ever feeling rushed. Whether you're a scratch golfer looking to fine-tune your game or someone just swinging a club for the first time, Bay View has created something special.

We chose this restaurant specifically because I called 2-3 weeks ahead of time to ask about the fryers. I have a food allergy and was assured that seafood was cooked in a separate fryer, so I would be able to safely enjoy the fried items. One of my friends even called separately and was given the same information. When we arrived, I reminded our server about my allergy and told him what I had been told. He reassured me that they would take care of me. I ordered onion rings and was SO excited. Unfortunately, he later came back and told me the kitchen said there was actually no way to safely prepare fried food because everything was fried together. I was devastated. We had planned dinner here specifically so I could enjoy things like onion rings and fries. Thankfully, my friends spoke with the manager, who offered to have my chicken fried steak pan-fried using fresh oil. I shared it with a friend along with mashed potatoes and green beans, and the food itself was delicious. Unfortunately, later that evening I began showing signs of an allergic reaction and ultimately had to leave the dancing portion of my birthday celebration early. By the time I got home, I was in significant pain and seriously considered going to the hospital. I have no way of knowing exactly where the cross-contamination occurred, but the bottom line is that my allergy was communicated to the restaurant repeatedly -- by me when I arrived, by our server, by the kitchen, and by the manager -- and I still had a reaction. Our server was kind and attentive, although understandably a little flustered at times since we learned it was his first night. This is not a criticism of him personally. He actually was great. I had previously left this location a 4-star review after another visit and included several photos from that experience. I have removed that review and replaced it with this one because when it comes to food allergy safety, I don't think there is room for flexibility or uncertainty. I don't want my previous review giving anyone with food allergies the wrong impression. If you have a food allergy, I would not recommend eating here.
