Didn't realize I never reviewed them. It's been a hot minute since I've been. They used to be open lunch time, so was easy to go. Now only dinner. Baby and I had date night. Had a glass of wine and baby had watered down lemonade. Her drinks were put in plastic cups with covers and those horrible paper straws. Eyes always bigger than my stomach, we ordered: - Cornbread - when i grabbed it I thought would be super dense but really wasn't. I thought it was very corny and tasty. Lightly toasted. Honey drizzle which wasn't too sweet...or maybe I just ate the parts that didn't have. Baby ate almost 1.5 pieces and even liked the Jalapeno Butter that I just dabbed on her bread. She said wasn't spicy but think she just didn't have enough. - Bone Marrow - lit it on fire to burn off the alcohol. Pretty sure it ddin't get it all so I cut baby off once I realized it. Other than needing some salt, really good. Choke mushrooms on top. One half was scrawny, but hubs had the other half for leftovers and choke marrow. YUM. - Sunchoke and Brussels - YUM. Baby ate some but was not really thrilled about it. I loved it. - Scallop and Mushroom Risotto - YUM. Delish. Baby liked it too. So much leftovers of everything. Realized when we ate it for leftovers it was all pretty oily and needed a pinch of salt. But otherwise great. Staff really nice and helpful. Love that the place is spread out and open. Bathrooms are not assigned which I'm sure can get gross, but is great to not have to wait for just the women's. There is a big stall which was perf since baby is potty training and had to go #1 and #2! Only thing missing was a hook to hang my purse and her bag. Great dinner...but if anyone is listening...bring back the shrimp and grits!!! read more

Ordered several different things and shared it with my husband. The blue crabcakes were tasty, the scallop and mushroom risotto was just okay and a bit on the watery side and didn't have that much risotto. I am not accustomed to risotto being watery. The smoked octopus was sliced in pieces that were too thick and a little too chewy and the andouille sausage and black pepper overpowered the dish. Ordered the bourbon and bone marrow mostly for the presentation. It was WAAAY too rich and needed more bread to go with it. They should've served it with bread that wasn't buttered because the buttered bread even though tasty by itself was just too rich in combination with all of that bone marrow. The dish needed more balance. The ice cream sundae was unremarkable. Would have preferred it served with a choice of hot fudge or the caramel drizzle and since it was plain vanilla ice cream they could've drizzled a lot more caramel over it. The waitress did bring us more nuts when we asked, but they were busy at the time and she was the only server so it took her a while to get to us, and the ice cream was pretty melted by the time she delivered. We got there when they opened at 5 PM and they had two servers at that time. The place wasn't busy so it seemed like they had enough help for the amount of tables that were being seated. An hour and a half later, though, one server was missing (possibly taking a lunch break) and the only server remaining at several big parties to take care of which slowed down her responsiveness to the other smaller tables like ours. The music playing in the background seemed to fit the environment and was pleasant to listen to. It's a pretty casual atmosphere. The prices for what you get are a bit on the high end. Probably wouldn't go back unless someone else is paying. We didn't feel too bad this time because we had a gift certificate which covered most of our bill. Maybe we were choosing all the wrong items and should have just stuck to ordering meat dishes, which they might be better at making (with a name like Livestock). You'll have to check this place out yourself and see if they do a better job with meat and if the prices for those dishes are more reasonable. I gave this place four stars instead of three because the servers were friendly, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the food was mostly okay (tasty enough and filling). read more

Made a reservation just a few hours in advance and had no issues at all. We arrived about 30 minutes early and were surprised that they were able to seat us almost immediately. The interior was beautiful with perfect lighting, ideal for a date night. The food and drinks were both excellent, and the service really tied everything together. Overall, a great experience and we'll definitely be back! read more

The good: Large open space with multiple seating areas. Nice bar area with counter top and high seats. Atmosphere is low lights and darkwood themed. The food tasted pretty good overall. The not so good: Service: This is a tough one. Our server was the only one there doing triple duty as host, server, and bartender. Same with the kitchen. Food came out slowly and inconsistent. This establishment needs more service employees. The bathrooms were filthy at the time of our visit. I couldn't recommend using its facilities. Parking: Street metered parking only. Come on a Sunday for free public metered street parking. I would have rated this review two stars due to the horrible lack of cleanliness in the bathrooms and very slow service. However, that is a management issue that should be immediately addressed. In addition, to require one server to take care of all the lunch patrons is borderline unacceptable for a restaurant to successfully continue its operations. Hopefully, this was a one time exception. The server appeared to try his best to take care of everything. read more

I've been going to Livestock Tavern since they first opened and they have managed to maintain their excellent service and quality dishes. One of my favorite things about this place is their seasonal signature cocktails, inspired by a theme such as the Little Rascals, Elf or most recently, song titles. The food is always hearty, comforting, reasonably priced and the servings are generous. We often leave with a doggy bag. Our favorites: Hen of the woods; prime rib served on a bed of roasted winter vegetables; smoky boar bolognese; the rack of lamb; and the scallop mushroom risotto. We always leave full, satisfied and never disappointed. For dessert, we ordered the creamy lilikoi crème brûlée. Centrally located in Chinatown near several popular bars and restaurants, Livestock Tavern's space is cosy and dimly lit, with about 10 tables, as well as seating at the bar. I especially appreciate the exposed brick walls, a classic characteristic of Honolulus old Chinatown. read more

Review for small parties: we had enjoyed eating at Livestock Tavern a handful of times, so when it was time to have a small party, I inquired if they could accommodate us. They replied (via email) promptly saying they could take a maximum of about 20 people, which was perfect. They have a standard party menu that includes shared appetizers and then a choice of an entree per person (I believe it was prime rib, salmon or vegetarian risotto). We also added the corn dogs as an appetizer as that is our favorite there! It's such a cool vibe inside and food was good. It was also the perfect place for a small party. We had two long tables of 12 (we ended up having about 24 people). We were able to bring in our own cake and we ordered ice cream scoops from the restaurant (no dessert included with the menu). read more

Well we only came for the bread pudding. It was okay not my favorite but good. The ice cream was delicious. Love the old school tavern vibe. Service was excellent read more

Tried another spot and they didn't have room, which was for the best. Came here and they had space for our party of 3. Loved the aloha service, nice beer and whiskey selection and loved the plates. At first I thought the small plates were overpriced, but once we got them it was healthy so worth it. Street parking and parking lots around, including Marin and Beratania municipal. read more

Spontaneously stopped in on a Tuesday night because I've had this on my go-to list. lobster pasta 3/5 Loved the lobster, didn't fully care about the sauce tavern burger 2.5/5 caramel bread pudding 1000/10! The consistency and the flavor were ON FAAAREAKING POINT! I'd go back just for this. Nothing else This was not worth $120 ‍ So sad about this, too because this restaurant is so vibey. I will say presentation was 10/10. Service was okay, nothing bad to say. read more

We went towards the ending of the night. So it was quieter. Nice vibes, the portions were decently sized. Not sure if it was because our server took a while to punch in our food... or if the kitchen was just a one man band (there were only 3 other groups in the entire restaurant) but it took a LOOOONG time. To get our things... We were patient though, didn't bother complaining, and tipped over 20%... they could've just had a long night and were tired.. Food was GREAT though read more

Spontaneous galantines date with my friends! It was a Sunday night and the four of us wanted to try dining in at live stock tavern the weekend of valentines. We arrived at our reservation that we made same day at 7pm. The restaurant was reasonably busy with almost all tables full and a full bar. We were greeted by a host and sat promptly with waters. The restaurant doors were left open, I am assuming for more air flow. The noise level was medium and crowd consisted of quite a handful of tourists. The decor was absolutely stunning! Red brick, dramatic lighting and beautiful big windows highlighting the character of Chinatown streets. The service was good for what they had. It was pretty busy but it seemed like our server was the only server on the floor plus two support staff. Service was adequate but nothing that stood out. Drinks were also adequate we tried 5 different drinks and only two of them stood out to us. The dancing queen was good (on the sweeter side) but our favorite was the fernet sour which is so hard to find!!! Def need to try if you haven't! It's great for after dinner as the amaro helps with digestion and it's also just delicious. The food selection was also very impressive but we do have a few notes and a few favorites. Right off the bat our favorites: the special which was a beef tartare was absolutely delicious the bread really stood out to us as it paired perfectly with the beef. We had a few (less adventurous) diners with us and they absolutely loved the beef tartare! The scallop and mushroom risotto with truffle was also delicious! So much scallops and truffle!!! We also loved the rack of lamb! It was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. For the other dishes we got, the oxtail Mac n cheese felt more like a hamburger helper than a Mac n cheese. Flavor was good we just wish there was more cheese. The bone marrow is hard. Everything was perfect, the marrow was cooked perfectly and succulent, the mushrooms were generously stacked on and paired perfectly with the marrow! However we did notice that when they flambé the marrow some of the liquor used to light it did not cook out so some of the mushrooms on the dish had extremely strong liquor taste which made it hard to eat. This was disappointing because the marrow was so good and I really wanted to eat it with the mushrooms. The cornbread was also very good, I just wish it was hot when it came out. The prime rib was perfectly cooked and they even cut it into pupu pieces because we said we were sharing everything!! I do wish the prime rib had more of a crust on it. We also had the lobster pasta which was also very good (for a red sauce seafood pasta). Lastly dessert we had the bread pudding which was also really good just make sure to get ice cream with it! I also noticed a lot of reviews point out the cleanliness of the bathrooms and in my opinion the bathrooms are perfectly fine. A few gnats here and there but you have to keep in mind that you're in the middle of China town. Overall I give this place a 4/5 stars because everything was good and nothing went wrong, but I would like to comeback and hopefully try different things or see what our experience would be like on a non busy night. read more

First, the service was great, friendly, helpful. The food however, what happened?? Been there a couple of times before and was good. This time, no salt in the salads, fries were overcooked, soggy, crab cakes were lukewarm, pasta was a bit bland. So maybe next time will just be to grab a drink here. read more

Livestock Tavern our favorite watering spot in downtown Honolulu. Awesome signature cocktails and an excellent Wine list. Their food is amazing. Menu changes with the seasons and they do an amazing job of creating new takes on already established cuisine. Service is top notch. We ordered a good selection of food to be shared family style. Prime rib, Lamb Chops, Lobster Pasta, were the main entrees. For appetizers we ordered the Hen of the Wood Mushroom salad, Cornbread, Pumpkin and Brussel sprouts. The Prime Rib was the hands down favorite followed closely by the Lobster Pasta. Not to be missed was the Hen of the Wood Mushroom Salad and the Pumpkin and Brussel sprouts. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious . read more

If you're looking for a spot that delivers large portions, great drinks, a stylish, cozy vibe, and delicious food, Livestock Tavern is worth your time to stop by. We came here for a family birthday dinner and were greeted right away. Caleb, our server, was attentive, friendly, and fast if there was anything that we needed. As a tequila fan, I started off with the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", a great balance of sweet, spicy, and floral. Very nice to sip on throughout the night. For dinner, I ordered the Boar Bolognese. It took a little while to come out, but it was worth every minute: rich, meaty sauce paired with perfectly cooked pappardelle and a dollop of ricotta mousse. Think hearty, comforting, and elevated. Then came my favorite dish: the caramel bread pudding. I'm not even a dessert person, but this one was so good. sweet bread, vanilla custard, warm and decadent without being overly heavy. I'd order it again instantly. If I had one small critique, it's the seating; the chairs were pretty stiff, and unless you get a booth along the back wall, it's not the most comfortable setup. That said, it didn't take away from an otherwise excellent experience. read more

My wife and I stopped by Livestock Tavern because we had about an hour to kill before our reservation at Senia across the street. We figured we'd grab a quick appetizer and a couple of drinks. To be honest, the food and drinks were actually pretty solid. Good flavors, well-made cocktails, and the warm brie cheese was one of the better appetizers I've had in a while. If the review ended there, this would've been a much higher rating. Unfortunately, everything changed when I used the restroom. I saw multiple German roaches on the sink (which is pretty alarming..) and after looking through other reviews and seeing similar mentions of roaches, it's hard to write this off as a one-off incident. This completely killed the experience for us. No matter how good the food and drinks are, this a serious health concern and it's not something patrons should have to worry about. Until the infestation is clearly addressed, I can't recommend this place. It's disappointing because there is potential here but cleanliness has to come first. read more

Im torn. I would love to gate keep this place but it deserves to be talked about more. I was lucky enough to get a reservation at 7:30 last minute for Mother's Day and that is hard to come by for special occasions. We were expecting good things due to other reviews and we were not disappointed. We loved the restaurant rustic vibe, the servers were on it, food came out in excellent time frames and the food itself.... Delicious! Not pictured was the ox tail Mac & cheese, lobster spinach artichoke dip and the cornbread which were bigger portions than we expected. I would even go back just for the black cherry soda. With that being said with seasonal menus I'm excited to go back to try other dishes and I Highly recommend this restaurant read more

Upscale bar food in Chinatown with big shareable portions. The food has a good amount of experimental flair while still being some recognizable classics. The risotto with shrimp and scallops was indulgent but a bit too salty for me. Chicken pasta had a nice kick to it. Lamb shank was very tender. Our friend had the salmon (not pictured) and said it was decent. The collective favorite by far was the oxtail mac and cheese (also not pictured). Service was casual, pretty uninvolved with our table but we were chatting a lot so I'm assuming they were just leaving us to our own. read more

I have been here 2 times before and each time was amazing. It's been a while since we've been back but last night we wanted to eat Prime Rib and Steak and wanted someplace close to home. So we headed to Livestock. Pros: 1. Reservations can be made online- so fast and easy. 2. Food is amazing! Literally every dish that we had blew our mind. So delicious! 3. Great service and food comes out hot and fast! 4. The vibes and decor are so nice. Cons: - Parking is little hard to come by but if you're okay with paying for parking there's always the pay for parking lots on every other street. My food reviews will be on the photos below. I recommend this place for good food, good vibes and great service! I can't wait to come back for the 4th time! read more

This place came recommended by an aunty we know who was so excited to take us here. While the place has a great vibe to it, the food is bland. The roasted prime rib sandwich was a waste of time. Meat was loaded on but it was dry and tasteless. The dip made it a bit better but could have used a handful of salt. The tavern burger was underwhelming. I might be more disappointed because aunty hyped this place up but I would not revisit this place for the food. Staff were nice and wait time was minimal but that may be due to the place being empty. Bathroom was gross with water leaking from the roof. read more

Heard wonderful things about Livestock and was excited to try with a friend. We ordered drinks and food fairly quickly as the place was quite empty. After a while I started to wonder where out drinks (a soda and beer) were since I was watched the bartender put away silverware and talking story while we waited for our food. Our server comes with the food, I ask her can we please get out drinks.... She looks at me and says OH..... like I have bothered her by asking for the drinks that I assumed would like prior to our food. She went and had a conversation with the bartender, came back 2-3 minutes later set them down saying "Here"... No apology or explanation just rude looks for bothering her for our drinks. Nobody had even come in after us to be seated it was extremely slow so we just felt like the staff was irritated we came in to enjoy a meal. Such an uncomfortable and unwelcomung vibe it doesn't matter how decent the food. Will not be back and 8/10 do not recommend unless you do not mind the rude hipster vibes. read more

#48 of 52 (weeks of trying a new restaurant at least once a week) We chose this restaurant to celebrate our 4 year anniversary. They do take reservations so I made one even though we were eating during the week. We got there about 6pm and definitely didn't need a reservation as there were only 2 other parties in the dining area but I'm glad we made one just in case. I actually really like the interior. It is dark but also cozy with the lighting, decor and exposed brick. I put on our reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary so they brought us each an anniversary prosecco which was so nice! Most places give you a complimentary dessert but I loved the free prosecco instead. After checking out the menu we decided on crab cakes and oxtail mac and cheese for our pupu's. For dinner my honey went with the prime rib and I opted for the lobster with squid ink pasta. Our pupu's came pretty quickly. The crab cakes were delicious! There were full of crab and I loved the sauce and fennel that came with it. The mac and cheese was good but I wouldn't call it mac and cheese because it was not cheesy at all. It seemed like it was just noodles and oxtail sauce. I liked the oxtail but I was looking for something cheesy and it wasn't cheesy at all. Next up were our entrees. My pasta came with a lobster tail which was a nice surprise. I thought it would just have lobster in the pasta but a whole tail is even better. I enjoyed the pasta sauce a lot it was just really rich. My honey's prime rib was perfect! It was delicious and I liked the sauces for dipping. The vegetables didn't look tender but they were and they were good. The portions are generous and we brought home leftovers. We were too full for dessert but we were happy with our anniversary dinner choice. read more

I really enjoyed dining at this countryside theme eatery. When you walk in and see the attention to details and decoration it makes you feel like you're eating in a refined farm house or barn. I dig it. They do have a large menu, and the service staff was polite, answering all my questions about their best sellers and their personal favorite menu items. We settled on a few different plates, including the oxtail mac & cheese, octopus, prime rib, and squid ink lobster pasta. The oxtail mac & cheese portion was generous. It would be enough for a light eater. The smoked Gouda gave it a really nice touch. The cheese sauce tasted like It had some type of brown sauce:liquid and I really enjoyed that. The octopus was light and refreshing. It was paired with a few different vegetables and herb aïoli that brought the flavors together perfectly. The lobster squid ink pasta with saffron cream was somewhat disappointing because the lobster was a tad bit overcooked. Besides that I thought the flavors were quite nice. Lastly, my personal favorite was the smoked prime rib. As a red meat and steak lover I was satisfied with the prime ribs hint of smokiness, tender texture, and fat content. It was served on top of a pan sauce and healthy portion of vegetables. This restaurant is definitely worth the trip. read more

Finding Livestock at night can be hard if you're not using maps. The sign is understated but fits the vibes of the interior. It's dim lighting and definitely an adult place for dinner; no high chairs or kids menus, and this time we did have a young one in our party. It makes sense for the location though. The server was very nice and attentive. We were able to modify the selections as needed. He also noticed the lei on one of our party and correctly assumed we had a birthday, which was really sweet! The birthday person was so happy with their dessert and candle. EVERYONE loved the food. In addition to the boar bolognese, lamb skewers, and bread pudding that my husband and I shared, the rest of the party had prime rib, chicken pappardelle, lobster pasta, oxtail Mac and cheese, and the New York steak - with great reviews all around. The portions are great especially considering the prices (about $24-50 a plate depending on what you choose). The only tiny thing was my husband wanted more lamb :) but that's a good note. Well that and parking but it's Chinatown. read more

Livestock Tavern Review This was my second time dining at Livestock Tavern, and it just keeps getting better! The first time, I treated myself to one of their desserts rich, decadent, and totally worth every bite. On my second visit, I went for the steak, and wow... it was fatty, juicy, and full of flavor. Cooked just right with that melt-in-your-mouth texture. It's definitely the kind of steak that hits all the right notes when you're craving something indulgent and satisfying. Livestock has a cozy, upscale vibe that makes every visit feel like a treat. Can't wait to go back and try more! read more

I don't normally come to downtown often to eat, but since we had some friends visit they wanted to try some places! ***What we ordered ~ *NOTE: I would say portion sizes are to share especially for the apps! **Corn Bread (6/10) ~ I personally like my corn bread a little more sweeter, but this was okay! I thought it was a little dry, but the butter really made it. **Corn Dog (5/10) ~ On the menu this was described as something really posh and elevated, but it was sad. All it was, was an Arabiki Sausage as a corn dog. It didn't taste bad, but it was okay. Don't order it though unless you want an average corn dog. **Tavern Burger (8/10) ~ The only thing that was GOOD. The burger had a really good Smokey taste and the grilled onions really brought the burger together. The fries were okay, but overall not bad! Overall, It's really pricey here and the food is okay. Service was really good! But I don't think I'll come back for the food. read more

I loved the pictures of the dishes taken by other Yelpers. Unfortunately, about 10 minutes after I ate the oyster appetizer, I had burning diarrhea. ( sorry if it's TMI but just want to warn people). I've eaten fresh seafood, exotic cuisine and dined all over but I have never had burning diarrhea before. Fortunately, there are many unisex bathroom stalls here. I eventually felt better after being in the bathroom for some time. Service was good - excrpt no one refilled my water glass. The prime rib Benedict and Vanilla Creme Brulee were excellent, so I gave this restaurant at least 3 stars. Many parking options of lots and structures to use. I prefer the Marin Tower parking facility since it is covered and only about 2 blocks from the restaurant. read more

The restaurant is so clean and the staff is lovely here. I sat at the bar with my friend since she loves the cocktails here. They definitely know how to make a good old fashioned here and it's not too bad for the price since they use good liqueur. I got to sample my friends scallop risotto and it WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD delicious!!! I even tried their corned dogs that seemed so plane Jane to me on the menu and those blew me away too. I highly recommend these two dishes to first timers here read more

We came here for lunch after going to the Iolani Palace. Shared the French toast and lobster roll and they were both delicious- French toast is definitely heavy so note that. Brunch/lunch menu seems to be more limited than dinner and for a western tavern-themed restaurant they have a very limited beer/cider selection (plenty of cocktails though). Service was good. read more

I probably have an older review on here somewhere. But it's due for an update. So here goes: The wife and I have been coming to Livestock for years now. Have never been disappointed with anything we have tried from the seasonally changing menus. Most recently, the standout items we had were the Smoked Tako (octopus), which was so good I was tempted to order it a second time. For real. It was seasoned perfectly and cooked exquisitely. Also, the Brussels and Sunchokes were very, very good. Just a hint of the sunflower flavor which paired nicely with the grilled Brussels and bacon. And the balsamic glaze really cuts through nicely. And the "corn dog" special was venison sausage, which was very hearty and rich, while having a ton of nuanced complexity. The drinks we had, off of their whimsical themed seasonal drink list, were all great. I do wish they would build a comprehensive bourbon/whiskey/scotch list...so I didn't have to ask if they had some of my favorites. The entrees are always consistent. I'll spare everyone my TLDR review of them. Just suffice it to say, if you like lamb, the lamb is good. If you like chicken, the chicken is good. If you like prime rib....etc etc. like I said above, we have never been disappointed. read more

One of the best Prime Rib's in Hawaii! Trust me, I have had my fair share. Great food beyond Prime Rib! Drinks are top notch! We go back frequently and never have had a bad experience!

Came in for a pre concert meal before Hawaii Theater show and this was the perfect spot! I love Fete but it was super busy - Livestock was comfortably full but not packed. The service was prompt. The food was fantastic! I ordered the blue crab ravioli, which was delightfully flavored. My favorite part was that it was packed with veggies! Asparagus and artichokes, so yummy! My Dad had the lamb skewers, perfectly cooked, he said. They also came with a skewer of veggies. The drinks were excellent as well. Great dinner spot! read more

Lots of hearty comfort food. Not being American, I never understood the fuss about cornbread until I had it here. Still have sweet and spicy memories of it. Service has always been good, but nothing that memorable aside from one time when they managed to fit 5 of us in after other members of our party made reservations on the incorrect date. The lighting is dim enough for a busy space to seem intimate, but bright enough that you're not squinting at the menu or your guests around the table. read more

I would've given this place 5 stars because it's never busy and always delicious. My favorite dish to get here was the wild game corndogs. I just popped in here today to get an order of them and they shrunk the dogs down like 60% while charging the same old price for the big ones they used to serve. The "Wild Game" definitely tastes (and l like an Oscar Meyer since the recent change. The venison ones were BANGIN. Rubs me the wrong a way a bit when it feels like you're being swindled but this place still bangs.. Ambiance is good. read more

Great service at the bar. The bartender was extremely nice and she had some great recommendations on the food. The soup of the day was chicken noodle with mushrooms and very tasty. Great place to drop in and have a beer also. Good location in Chinatown read more

As expected, another enjoyable experience at Livestock Tavern. We shared the Smoked Octopus which is consistently delicious. The smoked fresh tako flavor is enhanced by the andouille sausage and complemented by the olives, artichokes and lemon aioli. The seared duck breast also remains a favorite of my partner and this time it has been elevated to be the best duck she has had in Hawaii! Was looking forward to having the crab crusted salmon but my disappointment; when it was mentioned that they run out of the salmon, was short lived once I heard about their special: scallops wrapped in bacon with mushrooms, caramelized onions and potatoes on a bone marrow sauce. This dish was superb, the "bacon" looked and tasted like prosciutto and each of the other ingredients enhanced this scallop dish. The expert service delivered by Chelsea and the ambiance made the meal a magnificent experience. read more
