Honolulu Spur
Chez T.

This was an elevated experience for sure! This is perfect if you want drinks and apps before dinner or a night cap. I've never been here before so I had no idea what to order. I can honestly say that presentation was a 10! However I couldn't find a drink that really suited me. They all looked beautiful but didn't manage to wow my taste buds. The food on the other hand was delicious. They are very, very small plates and entrees are not served here. Recommend the candied bacon for sure. The vibe is like a speak easy. It's dark and cozy and exclusive. I've also heard the brunch is very good. Would love to give that a try next.

Went here on a Wednesday after work, and made a reservation via OpenTable beforehand just in case they were crazy busy. From the outside of the restaurant, it looks closed, but you just need to slide the door open and they are fully operating. Abe greeted us and gave us a choice of where to sit. We opted for a small bench/cocktail seating on the right hand side of the establishment. We jokingly told Abe that the table maybe too small for all the food that we were about to order and he assured us that he would time the service so that the table wouldn't be overcrowded, to which he and the team executed well. The house fried potato chips were my favorite of the evening, as they were crispy and the aioli complimented it well. I personally would've liked more salmon on the pumpernickel dish. The beef and brioche dish was missing something as the flavors fell flat for me. And the brioche was a little too dry for my liking. Throughout our time there, Abe stopped by to check on us, and fully explained their libations, with great enthusiasm on the Whiskey Business portion. We'll be back to try these on another day. It's always a cute vibe here, on the darker moodier side in the evenings, perfect for a date night or get together to catch up with friends.

Happy hour is daily from open-6:30pm. You're able to make reservations. I've always walked in and got a seat. Today I got the oysters again. These are the biggest oysters I've been served at a restaurant/lounge. Can't beat the price...$2!!! The mini corn muffins ($10) were also good- yes they are small and there were only 4 or 5 of them (sorry I didn't get a pick). You can eat them in 1 bite, but it is good.

Food/Drinks: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 This place is located in Foodland Ala Moana, so you can park anywhere at the mall. I believe they have 2 entrances: a red door outside of Foodland and a wooden door if you walk inside of Foodland past the flower section. We made a reservation off OpenTable and came here for a Galentine's Day night. This place was super chill and lowkey with people coming and going. My friend and I ordered off the Valentine's Day special menu and another cocktail each from the menu. For food the lobster croquettes were delicious and looked aesthetic. We snacked on the house chips, which tasted like vinegar but the dip complemented it well. My friend and I enjoyed the Oolong Rogue cocktail since we like our cocktails on the sweeter side. I really enjoyed my time spent here. The service was amazing and staff were very friendly. I can see myself coming again since I love the lowkey vibe it gives + the cocktails are amazing!

Homemade Chips

Definitely a cool fancy bar. We came for some drinks after the Punahou Carnival. We just had some munchies after a night of crowds. I love scallops. So I tried Hokkaido Scallops and it was yummy. And the homemade chips were delightful. The server was very fun and friendly. Great night.

Scallops...Just ok

Tim, the bartender, makes me feel welcome and also disappears into the background when I'm chatting with my husband or guest. That's an art right there! Love his helpful suggestions, his pineapple shaved ice drink is not only an art piece but delicious! Tart, lightly sweet, icy, the scent, texture, the beauty! I'm a horrible photographer so I can't capture it to show you but just get it! You're welcome! I love their bourbon, candied bacon... the best! The Sunday brunch is simple, easy, and reasonable. Don't bring more than a table of 4. Also, not for kids. This is a magical, quiet place for adults, an oasis in the midst of the Ala Moana noise and craziness. My new favorite spot especially when I'm alone.

I had read about Eleven in the Honolulu magazine and had bookmarked it to try. Several attempts in the past to get a reservation didn't happen so I booked this about two months in advance. We arrived at 9:30 and it wasn't very busy. Note, there is a 90 minute time limit for your meal, which is fair. There is a really nice array of food choices, though this buffet is small. It's not like Halekulani or Kahala big, but like I said, they have some tasty options. There's even a beef roast carving. The only thing we didn't care for was the kimchee hash browns. I also didn't get a chance to try the chia seed parfait. But we sampled everything, not once, not twice, but three times! LOL! I think our saving grace was the amount of cocktails the two of us ordered. They have the best espresso martinis we've had so far in the city. They even let us stay a little over the time limit...since we had our last martini to finish. The service is warm and friendly! Thank you Jin! Also the bartender, but we didn't get his name. For the price, I felt it was a good deal! I would definitely be back and also to try their evening service. Mahalo Eleven

House Fried Potato Chips
Kyra K.

Happy times at Eleven! Got to catch up with friends, Terry K. and Peter C., over small bites and drinks. My friend made reservations in the early evening and the bar was quiet. It's a bit hidden in Foodland but once you check in there's a bar area plus tables with booths and high tops. Super cozy but a relaxed spot to hang out. Service by all staff was efficient and kind. They ordered House Fried Potato Chips, Popcorn, Bacon Candy, and Roasted Beets for the table. All were good snacking foods, nothing fancy or impressive but went well with the drinks. If you like creative drinks or want a place to stop and sip in Ala Moana, Eleven is a place to try! It's tucked away in Foodland, just walk through and you'll find it in the back. Plenty of parking in Ala Moana.

Sausage, bacon, eggs, hash browns, salmon, prime rib, braised pork, chicken

Elevated brunch that will have you intrigued. This place was giving speakeasy vibes while being very creative with the regular buffet style food and adding subtle flavors for taste. That restaurant is a little in the smaller side, but definitely a great place for brunch dates or a quick bite for a small group. All your fave food and more. The prime rib was excellent with delicious condiments - personal fave was the chimichurri. All the cocktails are great as well. Fave was the Bean Buzz martini (espresso martini but with cold brew). The staff there was so helpful and with choosing cocktails and being able to make some changes to drinks. When I originally made my res, I accidentally made it for 10:30pm rather than am. The waitress called to double check. I've never had someone call for my mistake. (Thank you so much Cynthia!) great bartender, and a man who kept egging me on to eat more (I'm not complaining). Great vibes, great food, and great drinks! I will be back!

This was a great treat. Who knew this was tucked away in Foodland? You need to make reservations, and when you walk in, you are treated like family. Great place for brunch. It's family friendly, and no one really leaves here hungry. They had a great selection of salads, prime rib, and desserts. I need to come back to take advantage of the other great foods I missed.

Eleven is located in the mall on the ground floor Ewa side. You can enter from either Foodland Farms or from the mall side. One shouldn't get the feeling as if you're inside of a grocery store, but rather a cozy bar with a great selection of bourbon, whiskies, and spirits. I've only come here for lite bites and drinks. The bartenders and servers are friendly. Service is just the way I like it with smiles.

Brunch buffet winter menu
Amy Y.

The variety of options here got me coming for their Winter Buffet $35 AYCE. Made a reservation early because walk in is difficult. For the price of buffet, it's pretty good. There were variety of brunch options of meat, seafood, pastry, and dessert. Refer to my photos for the food. The food was pretty good. Desserts were available like cheesecake and tarts but would need to ask them since it is in the fridge. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here.

Candied bacon
Rebecca L.

Came here to start our foodland dinning passport and the whiskey deals! Food was great but service was mediocre. Went on a Thursday at 5:30p and got seated right away but pretty much after we got our food we hardly ever got checked on unless we made eye contact with the server for something. We ordered the candied bacon, chips, and beef & brioche. The bacon was soooo good! And the chips were warm and crispy and the aioli had a good spice to it! Drink wise my boyfriend had the yamazaki 12yr neat and I had a cocktail off the menu- I just asked for something pina colada tasting. Came out good! I appreciated they made something based on that since I prefer sweeter tasting cocktails. Overall we'd probably come back but hope we get better service next time.

Are they have more vegetarian options?

Is tank top and shorts cool? Saw a review claiming business casual but don't see any reference on their site.

Of course, they won't escort you out, but a nice t shirt is good.

Are they kid friendly? Provide high chairs? Etc

They have high chair, but I won't said they are that kids friendly even for their weekend brunch buffet.

During this time span, we saw her come out and take orders for other tables, bring them their drinks, and even come back for a second round for them. It was very unfortunate, especially considering we were some of the only POC there.

Unfortunately, due to a recent building power outage that greatly impacted them, our reservations had to be cancelled, and we couldn't reschedule for dates that worked for us.

They were full of depth, well-balanced, smooth, and just delicious, even for a non-whisky drinker like me! The prices were also not outrageous given the drinks' presentation and the bar's reputation. They're pretty comparable to what you'd pay for drinks at a mid-upscale restaurant, but at BLA, you're getting a whole different level of taste and craft. We were a party of 4, and we each ordered different drinks so we could all sample them. We ended up ordering quite a few haha. My favorite of the night was definitely their signature Leather Soul, and again, I don't even like whisky! That's how good it was. We also ordered some of their small bites, including the bread and butter and smoked salmon. Both were great bites to complement the drinks. The servers were all so nice and attentive. You could really feel their passion for what they do. We all loved the drinks and the overall experience. Would love to come back and continue supporting them!

That's a shame because it has the potential to be very good. When you start with a cocktail concept that is deliberately kept low key with no signage, and a drink menu that rotates and evolves, you have a pretty good floor to start. Having a cozy place to settle in and being able to enjoy food from Chris Kajioka should give 430 Pkwy a high ceiling. If you like an espresso martini try something a little different. Their Espressing My Love batches espresso with Averna, black walnut bitters, and a unique monkeypod syrup. Unfortunately, there is no espresso machine so you cannot get fresh drawn espresso to make a Carajillo the way Cafe Miro use to. The ahi brioche is a carry over from all Chris Kajioka places. The grilled cheese is excellent. Hotdogs are kicked up - it used to be a black truffled miso chicken sausage but the current one is a little different. The problem is the food preparation totally undermines the whole place. Without a separate kitchen you have frying being done just a few feet away from where cocktails are made.

I prefer the whiskey to shine and the sweetness to be more subtle. Their regular Old Fashioned is much better, and exactly how it should be. Smooth, rich, strong whiskey with a subtle sweetness. They can make a Pina Colada, fyi. Just not with a blender. Decent drink. Slightly heavy on the pineapple juice and light on the rum (Why is the rum always gone? - Captain Jack Sparrow). The Wiseman - light, nice rye spice kick, subtly sweet, earthy, and oaky. Rowan's Creek was a special recommendation by our server. After a sample, we had to try one. Smooth, earthy, spicy with a slight sweet- and fruitiness. Overall, a very nice experience with solid drinks, comfortable, relaxed atmosphere, and an excellent staff.

Firstly, the vibes are IMMACULATE. 20/10…read more Wild Orange is a speakeasy hidden behind an old-school Aloha Maid vending machine. Apparently you're normally supposed to put a coin in to open the secret door, but it's broken right now, so the whole vending machine just swings right open. Slightly less secret, but still very cool. Inside is where this place really shines. Moody lighting, a giant orange tree in the middle of the room, Japanese hip hop playing in the background (I want to steal this entire playlist), and extremely cool and friendly servers and bartenders. I've been to a few other attempted "speakeasies" in Honolulu, but most are basically just dark bars with a fun door or code word. Wild Orange actually has the VIBES to make the whole concept work. Definitely worth coming just to hang out and chill. They have a full bar and an extensive specialty cocktail menu. Tried the Purple Dragon, made with ube liqueur and coconut cream. Very sweet--a little TOO sweet for my taste--but tasty and pretty. Probably should have listened to the menu and kept it as a shot, but I wanted something I could sip on for a while and chill. The Umeshu Highball was also very pretty and tasty. My friend who works as a sake distributor was impressed with their selection of good sake, so of course we had to order a bottle. Our server brought it out in an ice bucket, kept it off to the side, and completely served it for us throughout. Very classy. The food menu is fun and creative, but unfortunately not really for me because it's entirely vegan. Most times, but ESPECIALLY when I'm drinking, I want MEAT. Tried the Wild Musubi, a vegan Spam musubi. I'm not actually sure what the "meat" was. Possibly fried tofu? Whatever it was, it was definitely a passable alternative, but would have been 100x better if it were just plain old Spam. It also falls victim to what I find is a common problem with vegan attempts at Japanese food: anything teriyaki ends up being way too treacly sweet without actual meat or seafood to ground it in reality. Also tried the Char Siu Tofu Bao, fried tofu in a red Chinese-style char siu sauce on fluffy white buns. Again, fun and certainly not bad, but these would be 1000x better with actual pork. If Wild Orange had this exact same creative food menu but carnivore edition, this place would probably be 7/5 stars for me. That being said, I know being vegan will actually be a huge draw for some people, and I appreciate that the food is creative rather than just the usual sad vegan afterthoughts. Parking is pretty easy by Honolulu standards. It's inside Hawaiian Brian's, so there's a large shared parking lot. That being said, you might still have trouble finding a spot during peak gym hours since you're competing with all the 24 Hour Fitness customers. All in all, I LOVE this place. Definitely a fun stop--first, middle, only, or nightcap--on a chill night out. Will absolutely be adding Wild Orange into the rotation of places to bring out-of-town guests when I want to impress them with something cool and different. The vegan menu probably means it'll be a couple-times-a-year place for me rather than a regular haunt. But for drinks, service, atmosphere, and pure VIBES? 20/10.

It had sand and a shared fire pit with your own side tables. You can over see the lower city view as you chill at the fire with live music, so the vibe is very nice. I was here for dinner and ofc ended ordering a steak of all things so it was a little difficult to cut my steak on the little side tables (honestly my fault) but we still had a nice time. We got a beer and a virgin cocktail which were both yummy. The steak was cook perfectly to medium rare like I asked and it hit my steak craving ~ the staff was nice and checked in us often ~

Super glad this place was recommended to us! Cool little speakeasy with a patio in the back for…read morecigars and drinks. We visited three different nights during our trip, met nice people, had great drinks and sticks. The only thing I thought could be different is the music was a little loud for my liking, but that's how I feel about music at any cigar lounge Definitely recommended!!

What we thought was a pawn shop turned out to be... a speakeasy?!…read more What a lovely surprise. A gem of a find! I will never forget this experience. I was just skipping around town exploring wanting to check-in to as many places as I could like the responsible Yelp elite that I am and then I find this amazing hole on the wall speakeasy. The lovely gentleman in the front welcomed us in to take a look around and I asked him if I could take photos for yelp and he told me that if I was going to write a review, I had to join them. So of course, I took the invite and decided to stay for a little while. We sat at a nice area. A perfect little place. I just want to take a snapshot and keep it in my memory so I can emulate it and turn it into my home study. I could stay here forever. The vibes were on point. The server recommended drinks that he thought we would like, and we loved both of them. I don't remember what the drinks were called, but mine had a blueberry taste to it, and my friend had a mock tail, but some sort of Yuzu to it. We also shared a $15 charcuterie graze. 10 out of 10 would recommend being curious and opening doors to finding out that there's a speakeasy randomly in an area you never thought would be there. What an amazing experience.
