It's very spacious and you bring your own food. They do offer alcoholic beverages at the bar so that is one thing off the list to not have to worry about. They have a tennis court and I think a basketball court nearby. Lots of parking so that's always a plus. They keep the area clean and tidy which is a must, especially since it is an outdoor facility.

Not an extensive food menu--Food is standard bar food. So think, corn dogs, fries, nachos, type food. Not bad, not 5-star gourmet food. There are a lot of TVs everywhere--in fact we went there specifically to watch the fight. TVs can be seen from almost anywhere in the establishment. Drinks--standard drink menu for a bar. :) Now, what I liked the BEST about this place was the kid friendly atmosphere, meaning, there is a huge open, mostly gated grassy area for kids to run and play. There's also a sandy volleyball area, basketball court, and pickleball court. It feels really safe.

Now mind you I'm not a big drinker but this tasty spicy and delicious. I only had a couple sips (it was strong but I'm a lightweight) but I did enjoy every last drop of the foam on top. Yummy!!!!! It's truly a work of art. They have awesome happy hour pricing which we took advantage of. The sprinkles were being serenaded by the wonderful voice coming from the live music being played. She was lovely. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. The food was fantastic. We ordered the truffle fries for the table which we devoured within a couple minutes. So hot and crunchy. Loved them. I ordered the cast iron shrimp off the appetizer menu. The blistered tomatoes and grilled shrimp topped off with sweet grilled cornbread were phenomenal. Alex ordered a cheeseburger and Ray got the salad with grilled chicken. This was the best meal I've had so far. So good!!!! 10/10 for me.

The potstickers were fine. The fish and chips were some of the best I've ever had. They use Mahi Mahi. They said that earlier this year they were unable to procure it and had to use a different fish and it just wasn't the same. So be sure to verify that they're using Mahi Mahi. Delicious! They have a legit pizza oven and make amazing pizzas. We got the combo they call the Kalua Pork & Pineapple. Note that it has other things on it too like jalapenos and pesto. We made no modifications and got it how it normally comes. Amazing! The scratch made crust is really great.

BRUNCH REVIEW! Food: 5/5…read moreService: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Located inside of Foodland Farms Kapolei, this place is easy to find. Lots of parking available as well since this is part of a shopping center. Made reservations via OpenTable and glad that I did because I noticed this place was pretty busy for brunch. I believe brunch is on Saturdays and Sundays. My party and I shared the Korean Chicken & Mochi Waffles and the Two Eggs with Anykine Fried Rice and Portuguese Sausage. We also ordered a bottle of mimosa to share. Portions aren't really big but this was enough food for the both of us. Food was delicious and we recommend ordering them. We didn't realize that the spread for the mochi waffles was wasabi-based, so beware if you aren't a fan of wasabi. Our server was friendly and helpful. I loved the ambiance of this place. Great place for families and catching up with friends. I recommend stopping in!

One of my visits, I was with my coworkers and we waited a long time for one of the appetizers. Our server was very apologetic and bought us all shots. Which was really sweet! I personally love the crispy ginger chicken and kanaka kalbi. Live music is always awesome! Especially when the Keolanui Brothers perform. They're my favoriteeee!!

I popped in for a quick pitstop before heading into town for a concert and was pleasantly surprised to find a tasting event happening for Ola, a local Big Island company.

My friends usually order the smash burger, and they noticed that the bun seemed different on this visit, It held all the contents perfectly without getting soggy at all, and they absolutely loved them.

We went on a Saturday, getting to the resort before 4:30 and then up we went with our special key from the front desk. We didn't have to use the key. When we got to the room, it is unassuming as it blends in with other rooms...except not. Followed the instructions on the door and it was so cool we closed the door and video taped it. I think it threw off the people working as they expected patrons. The walk in the hallway threw me off a little but after you walk through the small room...WOW. All I had to say was WOW. Because I had no expectation everything was so exciting. There was a "rooftop bar" feel to the place and the view was so nice. (Although I could do with less tree-view) It would have been nice to have been early enough to get seats at the railing but we didn't know you could get there before 4:30 and there was already a few groups there. Seating is first come first serve so we opted for a high top table tucked in the back that the 4 of us could sit and chat but still enjoy the view. I took a few photos but mostly enjoyed the ambiance and the girl talk. I don't know why I thought there would be light pupus but nope, no food. Just some olives and nuts. I wish I took photos of the drink selection menu because I don't remember what was in my drink. The names of the cocktails were fun though! I enjoyed a "Lifted 'Yota" which was fun and tasty. They also serve mocktails if you don't want to have the alcohol. All in all, I loved the experience we had and my friends and I look forward to coming back. I mean, there's an extensive beverage list and I must try something else!
