    This place was fantastic. Staff was super friendly and nice…read more Was super excited to see so many spectacular bruise on top but then also bottles. They had so many bottles it was unheard of. I didn't even get a photo of them all there's a whole shelf that I missed with stuff that wasn't cold and custom boxes. Place was extremely clean well kept and organized. It was definitely nice that they had an outdoor area as well as an indoor area with the bar. Plenty of seating bring your friends. Was happy to sit with the manager and the bartender and chat! Place was great. We would absolutely come back again next time we are in the area.

    My buddy and I stopped by here specifically to get their smash burgers, but unfortunately, the…read moregriddle was down, so no entrée items on the right side of the menu (sandwiches, burgers, sausages) were available. Our server informed us that it had been off and on for the past week, but went down since Friday. Not good for only being open for a year. They only had appetizers and salads, along with their bar, which offers a wide range of beers and wine by the glass, along with cocktails. Since we were technically "working", that had to wait for another time. Our server, Erin, was so nice and apologetic, even tho it wasn't her fault. For obvious reasons it was fairly slow, for a normal Sunday lunch crowd. Since we were pressed for time, we ended up just ordering a couple of appetizers; the sausage bites and chicken. They were both tempura style battered, and served with sauce or mustard on the side. The sausage had a slight spice to it, which was nice, and it was served piping hot pot of the fryer. A fork would've been nice, but they were small enough to eat by hand, but be careful, because they're pretty tough to bite thru. The chicken bites were smaller and easier to handle, although they were a bit dry, so the ranch furikake dipping sauce helped. We were out within 20 minutes, so very fast, and I'm hoping the griddle gets repaired soon, so I can try their burgers.

I will note that the prices were not significantly or even notably less than the prices at the resort, but it still made for a short walk and great service. If you are driving, there's plenty of parking in the plaza is nice to walk around. In an unrelated incident, someone had fallen and needed to go to the hospital. The staff were all attentive, but also not in the way. I believe that says something good about the vibe.

Spacious. Great spot for large parties even though it was only my date and me. It's Ko Olina so on the second floor it's open air seating which can be bad if you are facing the sun at sunset. I had the fish & chips which we just ok. The fish was fine. It was well cooked and crispy. But the fries were completely sogging and gross. I mean they tasted ok but who likes to eat limp, soggy fries? My date had the poke tacos as her main and she enjoyed them. We also did this chocolate creme pie for dessert which was pretty good. All in all, i would say i much prefer the Waikiki location. Perhaps it was just a busy night for the cooks, but I don't know if I'd give them another shot. On the plus side, since it's ko olina there was plenty of parking around but because it's ko olina it's expensive to park.

    When staying at the hotels nearby you will often hear about the monkeypod. The menu here looked…read morebetter to me and I am glad we tried it. We actually were here twice within a week. Ask what the special is for the day since it's not always posted. Each time we were there the place was only about half full which is a shame since service was excellent and staff was so pleasant and attentive. Everything is open so you get the nice breeze and it's a relaxing vibe. Pricing I though was great for the Island and as with most places the portions were huge and both times we had to leave with a box.

    What's the best part about going to a bar/restaurant?…read more The company of course! But if you're lucky enough to get deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious bar food at happy hour prices, & great service from an attentive staff, BOOM! Easy "5 star" rating on Yelp! One of my childhood friends came home to da 808, so we decided to do a small get together at 808 Craft House, as the the bar/restaurant was close to the Aulani Hotel (where my friend was staying). The restaurant has an open air, causal atmosphere, with several TV's for sports events. I didn't look at the menu as I was too busy chatting away & catching up, but my friend did the ordering & got several plates of Frrrrrrried Chicken wings, pizzas, & onion rings. Of course at "808 Craft House" they are known for their craft beers, so many glasses of beers were ordered that afternoon. Unfortunately for me, I no longer can partake in alcohol, but those beers sure looked refreshing. I was totally surprised about the parking situation for this strip mall. Why do I say this? Unfortunately at this strip mall, there is NO FREE parking at all (not the restaurant's fault). You have to use your smart phone & scan the QR code to pay for parking if you choose to visit any business on this strip mall property. I ended up paying $16.20 for 3 hours parking. That was the only bummer thing about visiting this strip mall.

This establishment is fairly large and have a regular seating tables area and a bar area. The bar area was pretty popping with people watching the on-going football game. (they do have tvs all over the bar so you should be able to watch in most seats. ​ It is fairly cold in here, like I was kind of freezing and had to grab a jacket from the car. Our server was super friendly and we got our orders in: We ordered: * Brick Oven "Super" Pizza: 7/10. We ordered this without black olives because I do not like black olives. This was okay. There were many toppings but since there were so many, there were much less of each topping (which meant that you'd really only get a tiny sprinkle of like beef for example). I felt like the pizza was just mediocre. The crust was unique, a twisted shape but it just made the crust more dense and not as enjoyable to eat for me as I liked a fluffier doughy crust. I also felt that there weren't enough cheese for the amount of toppings on this pizza. * Pepperoni, Sausage, and Jalapenos Pizza: 7.2/10. My friend ordered this so I didn't really eat as much of it. It was ok, same complaints regarding the crust. I think due to it having less toppings the cheese ratio was much better this time around. * Buffalo (Hot) Wings: 9/10, my friend said the main star of the show would be the wings and he was not lying! These wings were large and meaty compared to the tiny wings you'd often get at bars and most establishments. They were fried to perfection and tossed in the chosen sauce. The buffalo was perfect and I enjoyed it with ranch. * Lemon Pepper: 8.2/10, same positives, I just don't care for the lemon pepper flavor. * Garlic Parm: 9.2/10: same positives, I love the garlicky flavor of this wing along with the cheesiness from the parm. * Chicken Alfredo Pasta: 4/10. We do NOT recommend this. The chicken quality was terrible, it was like stringy. We think it is the premade chicken meant to be shredded for pizzas recooked into the pasta. The alfredo sauce was also not very good, just tasted poorly made and overly peppered. Honestly I would totally come back for the wings and only the wings. Recommend this spot to grab some wings and watch a game with some friends!

    Okay let me first start off my saying I am sad because I had really high hopes for this place :(…read more My family and I walk in, 3 adults and a toddler, the inside is full with 2 families of 6 still waiting as well to be seated. there were about 3 staff members just hanging out on the left side as we entered just staring at us, no greeting nothing, till my son walked up to them to let them know how many of us were dining in. The girl looked all confused, moved more slow than my toddler (sorry, but NO sense of urgency whatever). We'll after 10 mins of waiting we realized that it was because the guy who I guess was checking people in was in the bathroom. but geez, she couldnt helped him out. We asked if there was outside seating as the inside was already crowded and he checked and there was a table ready for us. Our waitress came gave us menus, didnt ask for our drink order than left. She came back maybe about 5-8 mins later to take our order, not before we requested if we could get water. Fastforward, like i stated at the beginning it was crowded on the inside when we walked in, well we get our food and mid way thru realize that our drinks were never filled, no one came out to ck on us or the other tables at that matter. We ordered extra carrots and celery that never came out, at that point I was like forget it. We needed boxes and refill of water since NONE came throughout our whole dinner. I decided to go get the boxes and request water, tell me why when I walked inside, the only table that was occupied was the party that was there in the corner. The rest of the place was empty and tell me why ALL the workers were literally just standing near the bar/kitchen. they see me walking in, no one seems to think "oh we havent checked on them" they waited till I approached them and asked for a box and water. Up until me going inside I gave them grace because like I mentioned I knew they were busy. But once I walked in and seen every single staff just standing there, I was disappointed. The food was good, but lets just say, the customer service was not it. Glad I got my fixed, as I havent eaten at Brick Oven in years, it will probably years before I come back....
