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

Would not return…read more During a recent visit, a bartender named Eli made a comment to me that was sexual in nature and made me extremely uncomfortable -- not the kind of interaction I expect from staff at any establishment. After that exchange, I noticed the service toward my group became noticeably colder for the rest of the night. We also had repeated issues getting correct change back on cash transactions at the bar. I raised both concerns with management afterward and received no response or acknowledgment. I've been there several times over the past year, and this experience was enough to end that. I can't speak to whether this is a pattern, but it's not an experience I'm willing to risk again, and I'd encourage other patrons -- especially women -- to be cautious. For a better night out, Dragon upstairs has better drinks, better prices, and a staff that treats customers well.

They always have live music, art for sale on the walls, and characters to talk to at the bar. If you're looking for a drink or an ear day or night, Hanks got you.

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.

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!

The menu runs the gamut from burgers to sashimi, fish tacos, ahi, kalua pork and more. The staff is very friendly and does an amazing job of keeping clients happy. The ambiance is the restaurant building itself. Built about 50 years ago, it features tiki statues, tropical plants inside and out, an indoor waterfall and a WWII jeep parked outside. La Mariana's has been made famous by being the setting for the TV series Magnum PI. That can make getting a reservation a bit difficult and parking can be a nightmare.

It's such a fun place to hang out, and when the live band is playing, it's even better. They're interactive, entertaining, and create such a great experience. Unfortunately, the customer service has been consistently disappointing. The bartender has always seemed friendly, but the waitresses have been cold and often come across as rude. We usually want to come here, but the service makes it a hard sell sometimes. We'd love to bring more visiting family and friends here, but it's honestly a 50/50 decision because we never know what kind of service we'll get. The food is decent, but nothing that really stands out. The coconut shrimp and onion rings are both good, and the drinks are definitely a highlight. The piña colada is honestly one of the best we've had. For our family of five, plus two beers and one piña colada, lunch came to about $175 including tip. That's pretty expensive, so we only come on rare occasions. At that price point, we'd expect warmer, friendlier service. We initially gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed we had visited on off days, but after several visits--including this past Friday with many of the same waitresses--we've found the service to be consistently cold and unwelcoming.

The bar keeper doubled as our waitress. She was very friendly and helpful with the menu. Our group ordered: -kim chee Kalbi quesadilla - 5/5 -loco moco - 4/5 -Country fried pork chops - 3/5 -breakroom special -2/5 The quesadillas were amazing and would be the dish we'd come back for. Like some reviews on Yelp have noticed, they were out of items like shrimp and in our case, no mashed potatoes. The rice didn't go well with the cheese+gravy+chicken. In hindsight, we should have asked for fries to be used instead of rice. The pork chops were lacking in flavor and didn't match the hype of sous vide pork chops. They've updated the menu recently so maybe we'll give them a try again.
