First time checking out Blitz. I dont often give 3 starts but here's the quick pros and cons…read more PRO: Convenient location and we were able to make a reservation on a UFC fight night. Comfortable interior and HUGe TVs this is a great place to watch sports. Service was very friendly but could have some improvement. Hamachi carpaccio was pretty good and fried pork belly. Cons: They didnt have any beers on draft which I thought was strange for a sports bar, I asked for a menu but they didn't have any drink menu available, so the poor servers had to constantly repeat what beers they had. It was a busy night but the food took a very Long time to arrive some things almost an hour. Servers need a little more training. Granted they were pretty;) BUT We had to ask for water, water refills, plates, utensils, serving spoons, reminded them to check with kitchen if food was coming. Overall I would go there again if things get better but well probably go to another place next time.

Bartender new Popolo girl didn't know if she had Coke Zero and instead of just refill she asked if need one, that's the 1st for me from a Bar. And of course Bar & Waitress taking shots with regulars and paying attention to themselves instead of taking care of customer,, soda empty 20mins for the first time unbelievable. But most Bar people drink on the job what's new. Gotta ask for refill wow. Not sure if I ever come back here.

I wanted to share an update to my original review. At the time, I had a really frustrating…read moreexperience with the parking validation system and the way it was handled by management, which unfortunately overshadowed what was actually a great night. The food was good, and the service in the bar was genuinely great -- that was never the issue. Recently, the owner reached out with a sincere apology for how things went and for the delayed response. He took the time to acknowledge the situation and offered to send a gift card as a gesture to make things right. He even mailed it out the same day, which I really appreciated. The thoughtful follow up and willingness to revisit the situation after so much time meant a lot. This kind of customer service goes a long way, and I'm glad to see the improvement. After swearing it off previously, I will be back soon to use my gift card. Mahalo.

There is no official paperwork for service animals and asking for documentation like that shows a complete lack of understanding of the law.

Pretty ridiculous experience and not a place I'd recommend if this is how guests are treated.

I found so many things that looked great on the menu, to include fried gizzards, boneless Kal Bi ribs, fully loaded fried rice, Mac salad and other stuff I can't recall! So the TWO of us ordered way too much! We tried to eat as much as we could and ended up taking the rest home! Everything we ordered was delicious, so we knew we were going to eat good leftovers! The restaurant was a great place to go with a group to eat and watch sports! Our Waitress (I have to remember to get names) was a track star, she was running to and from several tables of groups to deliver food! I will go again if they reopen!

If you're visiting Hawaii with a big group, 100% recommend taking them here…read more We initially were a party of 16, and showed up without a reservation at 6pm on a Saturday. The staff was super nice about it and was able to accommodate us, with only a small request that we be out by 8pm since there was another big party with a reservation coming in. Absolutely reasonable. They sat us right away at three large tables, which gave us plenty of space for food and didn't force us to sit super close together. Menus, waters, plates, napkins, and forks were all brought out immediately, and our waiter was quick to take our order. We started with the prix fixe menu for 8-10 guests and were going to add other items à la carte, but a handful of our group accidentally went to the other Side Street location (make sure your group is all on the same page), so what we ordered ended up being more than enough. We left stuffed and with 5 boxes of food still. Edamame was nice and steamy, and large enough to easily pop the beans out with your mouth. Wish there was a bit more salt though. The farmer's salad had everything going on from citrusy to salty to crispy. Avocado had a little bit of oxidation but the capers, dressing and potato curls provided plenty of reasons to overlook it. The fried rice came in a hefty portion, with sizable pieces of bacon and sausage. The chicken I didn't realize was boneless based on the shape of the deep fry, but it was nice to freely bite into it without worrying about hitting anything with my teeth. Probably a bit too much on fried bits but still good. Pork chops had a better meat to crisp ratio in my opinion, as well as juiciness. They even came with ketchup on the side, which I love as a pairing but don't see much of at restaurants. My favorite meat item was definitely the sizzling boneless kalbi. The presentation on the sizzling plate with a side of kimchi was spectacular, and the meat was full of flavor. We also ordered yakisoba, which wasn't part of the prix fixe. Tasted good but nothing past standard expectations. We let the waiter know we had a 30th birthday at the table, and they brought a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream with a candle, and did a decent job getting the whole room to participate in the singing. It could also be the type of crowd this place attracts, since it seemed that everyone was so friendly and approachable. Thanks to the quick and consistent service, we were out in a little over an hour with no complaints.

We parked across the street in the parking structure for the 1221 Kapiolani Blvd. building as the parking is we think is FREE on Sunday? Gate was up. Booth was closed. We didn't have a reservation. We waited 10 minutes for a table for 4 people. That is fine. Service is friendly and fast from the young girl working. We ordered for the 4-5 people. Pork Chops and Fried Rice came out first. Then the Garlic chicken and shortly after the Boneless Kal Bi. Everything looked and tasted good like in the past. Support local businesses.

My daughter loves their honey walnut shrimp and fries. The breading to the honey walnut shrimp is always just right and it's not overly dressed with the honey or walnuts, either. This is also my husband's favorite app. We're sorta regulars here, so the service is always great. Servers greet with a smile and are quick to place orders for both food and drinks. When we sit at the bar, it's the same, as well. The bartenders are always friendly and take the time to get to know your name. It can get busy during the weekends, but if you're there before 6, it's usually not that bad.

We decided to give them another try after going years ago at their old location since we were…read moreshopping in the area. It seemed to be a slow day for them but two other tables came in shortly after us. The girl who sat and served us was very nice & checked on us often. We got our drinks in a timely manner but the food took about 45 minutes to get to us after ordering. The table who ordered before us got their plates one by one at separate times so I knew kitchen staff was low that day. When our food came out it was presented nicely, but the burger patties seemed unseasoned. I believe they're previously frozen which ok since they don't specify it's made in house but it just lacked seasoning unfortunately. It's not too loud In there, lots of TV's to watch sports & I saw the girl happily change it for an other table who wanted to watch something in particular. They were also out of a couple things which the server made us aware of, later I overheard more things were out after another couple tried to order. The service was great but the food was ok.

When we got seated our waitress was prompt and helped us get our order in before happy hour was over. We ordered exclusively from the happy hour deals menu and the portions were extremely generous. Chicken nachos were tasty, my favorite topping was the quick pickled jalapeños, so delicious. Also got the Brussels sprouts and they were some of the better Brussels I've had, crispy and the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The sliders were great for the kids, they still came with fries which I thought was surprising for an appetizer. The truffle mushroom pizza was also savory and delicious. We left we extremely full stomachs, leftovers to bring home, and a bill that was almost half of our other meals in Waikiki so far.
