Anyway this was on the 29th of July and I just wanted to give a shout out to the waitress. Don't know her name but she had real long hair but wore it up in a bun and she looked mainly Asian heritage. The happy hour food and drink specials brought us there but the service was outstanding and nice to see as I think service in general has gone downhill since Covid.

Not to mention, this sports bar has been a fish bowl on the corner of Kapiolani since I was a kid! I don't come here often, but when I do, I mainly come here for the food, which is delicious... and worth the 10 years it takes to come out. Just don't go there if you're looking to eat pronto cause you know that they're putting all the love and care into your food. HAHA. Honestly, that's literally the only downside of TJ's... the food wait. But as I said, it's worth the wait if you're willing. Make sure you get their famous Mozzarella Sticks aka CHEESE LOGS! Their bar has everything under the sun, with a blender! I always apologize to Kristy and Truong for having to blend my Daiquiris... I know it's extra labor. Sorry! They host a lot of events, so the place can get quite packed... especially during sports... hence TJ's "sports" bar. The most welcoming sports bar in Honolulu.

Other than that the place was full. Service is friendly and fast. We ordered 2 151 shots and 2 Heineken Light beers to start. We waited to order food as the kitchen is at 4:00pm. That was fine. As we ate lunch earlier at 1:40pm to 2:05pm. Lol. We ordered a pepperoni pizza and chicken wings as we should order some food as we were drinking a little bit. Lol. 3 shots 151, 2 Heineken Light beers and 2 green teas each. Lol. The food was good. So, sorry I didn't post any food pictures. The bartender/waitress HOLLY was very friendly, attentive and more to everyone that was in the bar. ONLY 1 worker and she took care of everyone. That is really amazing to see. Most places it would take 3 workers doing what she did as we go to other places too. This place is lucky to have a hardworking, fast, attentive and more worker like her. We will be back as it has the feel of like a neighborhood bar where everyone seems to know each other. A nice and safe place to drink, eat, watch sports, hang out, shoot pool or play darts. We will be back again. Support local businesses.

You can dance the night away on the dance floor before or after or even while you're eating or drinking. The great entertainment is matched by great food and service as well! Their menu is mostly American with some local dishes and even some surprises like Poutine Fries! I was impressed not only with the quality of the food but the variety of offerings including 9 salads and 11 different types of hamburgers. In addition to their Chef's Reserve Cuts of New York, Ribeye and Flank steak Asado, entrees included dishes from Loco Moco to French Shepherd's Pie. I tried to be healthy by ordering a salad after getting my bloodwork results yesterday. But who am I kidding?! Besides the Okinawan sweet potato, the Sake marinated grilled flank steak Cobb salad I got had bacon and bleu cheese. Of course it was delish!!! Our birthday boy got the Saturday daily special of prime rib with 2 sides of your choice for $35. What a great deal! The meat was tender and not overcooked. The oven roasted veges were also tasty and cooked just right though maybe a little buttery for my personal taste. The crowd consisted of mature folks who love to dance and have a good time. Will definitely recommend this for place to my aunt and look forward to my next visit !

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE/STALE FOOD/DISRESPECTFUL TOWARDS VETERANS…read more On 7/30/2026, I ate at Shark's Den Bar & Grill because my flight was delayed and, by the time I checked into the Airport Honolulu Hotel, it was already close to 8:00 p.m. I was scheduled for surgery at Tripler Army Medical Center the next morning and had been instructed to stop eating at 9:00 p.m. so I didn't have time to look for another restaurant. As advertised by the business, the restaurant is "located in the Honolulu Airport Hotel." Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. After being seated, a couple who arrived after me were greeted and had their orders taken before anyone acknowledged me. It wasn't a great first impression. I ordered the loco moco and requested the eggs to be cooked over easy. The server then asked how I wanted my hamburger patty cooked, which caught me off guard. I've ordered loco moco many times over the years and had never been asked that before. Seeing my confusion, the server suggested having the burger cooked medium then I agreed. When my meal arrived it was around 8:30 p.m. and the eggs were cooked medium instead of over easy. The bigger issue, however, was the rice. The texture was very inconsistent...some bites were stale and crunchy, others were chewy, and some grains even stuck to my teeth. It gave the impression that the rice wasn't freshly prepared. Given the restaurant's convenient location for airport travelers, I was hoping for a quick, satisfying meal before my surgery. Unfortunately, the questionable service and disappointing food quality made for a less-than-ideal dining experience. I hope they can improve both their service and consistency in the kitchen. This restaurant also advertises having "live music", but on the Thursday night I was there they had karaoke. Restaurants should not advertise karaoke as "live music" because the terms describe two entirely different customer experiences. Update (7/31/2026): After posting this review, the server, Rutilio A., sent a "compliment" to me, here on Yelp, stating: "Questionable service??? (3 laughing emojis) bless your little heart. Please note that unless you are ordering loco moco out of a truck most RESTAURANT that don't serve frozen patties will give you the option on how you would like it cooked. Can't wait to see your review of your surgery. (Thumbs up emoji)" Rutilio's comment to me actually reinforces why I described the service as "questionable." Customer service doesn't end when the check is paid...it also includes how a business and its employees respond to customer feedback. Rather than addressing my concerns about the flawed rice or how customers who arrived after me were greeted and had their orders taken before me, he chose to mock me with laughing emojis, a condescending "bless your little heart," and a sarcastic comment about my surgery. That isn't the response most customers would expect from someone representing a restaurant. His comment became additional evidence supporting my original observation and demonstrated the same lack of professionalism and customer care that led me to describe the service as questionable in the first place and now turns out to be absolute garbage. Rutilo A. definitely does not belong in the hospitality industry. I originally gave this restaurant a 2-star rating, but after the server Rutilio A (using the alias Tillo A.) personally attacked me with his "compliment" here on Yelp, I now give this restaurant a 1-star rating.

However, if you expect decent grub and decent service, you'll be satisfied. The main glitch is their schedule, open for breakfast seven days per week, but dinner is some kind of every other day type deal. It makes no sense. Their response to this issue, they have a sister hotel with an open restaurant and they'll shuttle you over there. Not exactly gonna fill that "Gotta grab a bite right now" fix, so it's still a detriment, in my opinion. In summation, you're not going out of your way to eat here, but if you're staying here and want to grab some breakfast, you'll be satisfied. Update: Their plaza burger is indeed awesome! Big, juicy and flavorful! What more can you ask of your burger? Update #73: Though I'll not change my overall rating, it should be pointed out that dinner is no longer offered at all. As in zero! To offset that, now a free breakfast buffet is included. Previously you had to pay for breakfast and due to the nature of ordering breakfast, it was kind of slow if you were in a hurry. Now, just walk in and feast! It's a solid breakfast buffet! However, if you want something for dinner you have to jump in their shuttle to their sister hotel and partake at that facility. Not exactly convenient, but I understand that hotel no longer has any breakfast, so this is their way of cutting cost and still providing food options for all of their guests at both properties. I might try their sister hotel for dinner one of these nights this week.

We loved the ordering system through a kiosk indoors and the big free parking lot. We tried the shoyu chicken and the boneless honey chicken. Both were excellent and ready in about 10 minutes. Inside there is loud music with some profanity, so I wouldn't recommend this place for kids. There are several televisions playing sports, darts, and karaoke. In the back is a private karaoke room "Mitch's Room" you can call and make a reservation to rent. They have soju in a fridge as well as a bar with a good spread of lower tier alcohols. There is a $10 minimum spend at the bar to use a credit card. The bartender Rachelle is very sweet and took good care of us. Mahalo for the great date night!

She claimed they were closed for a private party on both instances but when single men came in after us, they didn't get the same script and was allowed to drink at the bar.

We only kept trying to go back because we were long time customers and used to love the workers and food. We will no longer be going there since this was the second time we were denied service. At least soul chicken opened in the food court at the park at Keaumoku, so we can still get our chicken and they have a bar there that actually is beautiful.
