Out in Kalihi and found myself inside of a true dive bar that checks all the boxes: dimly lit, a…read morepool table tucked away in the corner that probably isn't level, and the one regular who has his assigned seat at the bar. Underdogs is actually a lot bigger than it appears from the outside, which is sort of nondescript - so much that you could easily miss it from the street. Lots of dining seating on the inside and plenty of room at the bar. Lots of flat screens on the walls, too, so I'm pretty sure this spot gets crowded during football season. Like many other bars around town, they have open mic karaoke. This spot is country-music friendly, so make sure your Garth Brooks is on point. Lots of local pupus in their menu. Kind of hungry so we ordered the following: - Dynamite chicken - 7/10: I would say it's like chicken karaage with lots of Sriracha mayo drizzled on top along with bonito flakes. Large and shareable pieces for maybe 2-3. Very filling and tasty. - Fried rice with smoked meats - 6/10: large portion shareable between 2-3 people. Good dish and they give you a lot of smoked pork meat. Unfortunately, the pieces were quite tough. Rice was on point and flavorful, however. This is a great spot to chill with nice people in a comfortable, unpretentious environment. Go off the beaten path for once and check this spot out as a great time was had by all.

There was a ROACH in my poke flatbread pizza! well, I can't confirm that it was a roach, but it was…read moresome small bug-like thing crawling around on my arugula. I pointed it out to the waiter and she said she thinks it's just a gnat that's been flying around and just landed on the pizza. I had to tell her, ma'am... this does not have any wings on it. it is not flying. it is not a gnat. She said she can take it back and get me another one if I'd like. I don't want anything from back there--y'all can keep it. eeeeeyuuuck!

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.

I guess they used already cooked and serve old stuff not fresh. Likelike has the Best Loco Moco. I think I miss the rush so get left overs. 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.

Sister location and part of the original Alejandro's next door. If you've eaten at Alejandro's then…read moreyou know what I mean. Only difference now is they are a sit down establishment serving margaritas and the like. I try carne asada at almost every Mexican eatery I stop at and this place rises to the top. Authentic taste; as if you were somewhere in Mexico. Any menu item is well flavored. That's all you need to know. Oh, their portions are huge so be mindful when ordering. If I had to pick one thing bordering negative it is the location as they are on Kalihi Street well into the Kalihi Valley. But, you will get used to it after your first visit; afterall, it's worth the journey into the "valley" Couple things you should know and that is chicken enchiladas are not made daily. I think it's Tuesday and Thursday? Not sure but it is limited. If you don't already know, their Kapahulu location closed a few years ago. They do intend on opening another location in Pauoa Valley I'm told and another location in Pearl Kai... I hope I'm not spreading rumors.... Regardless.... get there or be square!

It wasn't overly crowded and the ladies really did their thing with the karaoke! They sang banger after banger. The staff were friendly and this place seems like a spot that has lots of regulars. We have visited since then and I would just be mindful that when there is a Pool league playing the wait times for food and drinks take much longer. When the food came, it was a pleasant surprise! It was tasty and the prices were okay. Overall Good Atmosphere and the food experience was a 7.5/10

I ordered a neat pour of whiskey and was pleasantly surprised by their selection.

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

Ended up in Kalihi on some nondescript, industrial looking side street and found myself in what my cousin described as a Laotian themed bar. There's always a first for everything. Very local feel, clean, casual, non pretentious. The acoustic system here kicks major ass for karaoke, although I have no idea what is being sung. It's all fun though. At any rate, very friendly staff, the kitchen closes late and they make a mean fried chicken. Come check it out!
