I look forward to the oceanside seating and watching the sunsets with family. My granddaughter likes to play in the sand or visit the beach. Dinner, last Friday, was fabulous. Reservations are generally necessary most nights. We arrived early to take advantage of Happy Hour. We always order truffle fries to share. My daughter and I split a Bee Sting pizza. The pizza has local honey drizzled on top of pepperoni. A little decadent, indeed. My son-in-law has a poke bowl, which he engineers like a salad. The drinks keep coming. We also share zucchini fries in the name of healthy. The fries are crunchy and the zucchini melts in your mouth. We save room for dessert, which is always a treat. I had a bowl of their lilikoi ice cream, which was phenomenal. My daughter had a carrot cake loaf which takes 20 minutes to prepare and is totally shareable. We take a break from dinner to take pictures of the spectacular sunset. On Fridays, you can even watch fireworks over Honolulu from your table. Kelly, our server, was attentive, fun and provided downright fabulous aloha service. All the service folks are friendly and attentive, but I will request Kelly when possible. The Club offers workout facilities with showers. My kids have participated on the rowing team, which is a foundational activity of the Club. As for me, I like watching the canoes glide across the water. The Club offers special seasonal events. A small parking garage is available for parking. The facilities are handicapped and stroller friendly.

It is located in a beautiful and lush area on Queen Emma Street near the Queen's Hospital...fit for a...QUEEN! Lol, playing with words here! This place is quaint and quite lovely. Actually, I can imagine a Queen coming here to relax, socialize and dine here. I really enjoyed coming here...probably my first...and my last time here. Unless, I get invited here again...HINT HINT! The Pacific Club is a private club for Members ONLY! I was fortunate enough to be invited to my friend's graduation party at this venue. Upon arrival, I was amazed with the ambiance! The open air concept of the club is so peaceful, serene and relaxing! Love, love, love that! We were in the...MANGOS dining area. Of course, surrounded by mango trees! What a perfect place to chill, gather, drink, eat and be merry with friends and family! Here's what I enjoyed: CAESAR SALAD: so ono! I only had 3 servings of this, lol. One of my favorite for the evening! KALUA PIG BAO BUNS: very delish. I had seconds on this. SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP with PITA CHIPS: delicious, but very rich. POTSTICKERS: pretty good...your typical dumplings PRIME RIB: yummy for my tummy. I enjoyed this twice. BREAD PUDDING with a cream sauce: this was yummy and decadent. I loved this, too. So, if you get an invitation to go to ...THE PACIFIC CLUB for a party or to socialize here, make sure you go! You'll thank me for that!

10/20/25 Came here for a group luncheon today and also my first time here. Our luncheon was…read morescheduled at 11AM and there was lots of parking available. The grounds are well kept and there is a covered drive-way at the entrance to the club for drop-offs. When you walk in, there is a feeling of coziness. The main reception area is very welcoming with comfortable seating, plants and a beautiful painting of the Waimea Canyon. To the left of the entrance and past the reception desk, there is library room filled with books and seating. Our luncheon was held in the Card room. There were about 40 of us in attendance. This room also gives you the feeling of comfort and welcome. The buffet was situated on tables along the windows. The food was good. There were 2 entrees - roasted chicken, shitake hoisin cream sauce and furikake crusted salmon with wasabi butter sauce. The salmon had nice flavor, not overcooked or dry and even though there was wasabi in the sauce, it wasn't a lot to be spicy. The chicken was boneless and skinless thighs, also not dry to the taste and the sauce complemented the chicken perfectly. Other items on the buffet line were caesar salad, fresh made rolls, tomato-mozzarella salad, huge fruit bowl, steamed vegetables, fried rice, and a separate dessert table. There were 3 - mini chocolate cake, apple tart, and bread pudding. The apple tart was good and the bread pudding with the sauce was ono. I didn't care for the fried rice because there were too many vegetables in it and not a local-style type fried rice. It is a nice venue to have a function and it seems to be a popular place. I noticed when we entered the building there were several functions scheduled on their events board for the rest of the day. I don't know if they were shorthanded but the wait staff did not come around to refill water glasses or iced tea. There was a table set up for coffee or tea so apparently it was self-serve after they give you the first glass. But the whole 2 hours there, no one had come by to fill our water glasses. And they seemed a little slow at removing used plates from the tables. Restrooms were very clean and had nice touches like mouthwash dispenser with paper cups and wash cloth towels to dry your hands vs paper towels. Overall, ambiance is great, food was good, improvement needed on the wait staff.

808 sports league is a great opportunity for coed sports while socializing with different people…read moreyou haven't met and making new friends. My co-worker invited me to join this league which I paid $70 (early registration per person - it can be $80/person) for Fall 2017 coed volleyball. In Spring 2018 coed volleyball was $800/team for early registration. We had close to 9 people or so which everyone was okay paying. $87/person. Created our own team after we made friends with people and recruited more. Based on only knowing my coworker, they randomly put together my team of 13 people. Through this process, you can make friends from your team as well as from the other teams. I don't know how they decide placement of people, but I actually made friends (at least 7 people) with two opposing teams when we go to the bars after the games. Fall 2017 and Spring 2018 coed volleyball was sponsor by Champs (Sports bar) and Rock Bottom with other beer company (Pacifico and Corona) as these places give us discounts on those beers. I like Champs (Sports bar better) since they have more games and really good food. They always alternate each week of where the post-games are at. The regular season each in fall and spring had two "themes" and my team chose Power Rangers for "hero week" and "America" for "team week" A great way for people to be creative with their "theme" custome. Some teams will dress up prior to match and play in uniform or gym clothes We all got a shirt and each team is represented by a color of the same shirt. Wear your shirts if you want to get the sportsmanship score. It can be used as a tie breaker They allow selfies and the winner gets a $100 tab at a bar based on most people in the selfie, which my team only had maybe 4-5 at one bar and the rest is just 2 (my coworker and me), which we sometimes do selfies or photos with other teams. I wouldn't mind joining other sports this league offers such as: kickball, flag football and dodgeball. 2017 is their 10-year anniversary which our shirt from volleyball mentions. 2018 they went back to the style they used in past of what sport you're playing and what season and year on it. At least this league has some friendly people and some competitive, but it's mostly about having fun and meeting new people and socializing. They have playoffs which half the teams qualify for and if you win, money is donated to a local charity that the winner decides.

KICKBALL. There's a…read moreleague for this?!? For serious. The 2012 season will mark my 5th year playing in this league, and it's just gotten better as the years have rolled on. And after all those years, talking about 808 Sports Leagues and the kickball (and other sports) leagues they put together has never gotten old, especially trying to explain to tripped-out bar-goers on a Monday or Wednesday evening in Varsity or Rock Bottom why there are over 100 people walking around in off-beat, fluorescent or downright bright shirts ... Stranger/Future Kickballer: "So ... kickball?" Me: Yes! There's a league. And I'm on a team. S/FK: "I haven't played kickball since elementary school!" M: .... (Don't worry, we know every one hasn't. :) ) S/FK: (looks out over the sea of forest green, "WOW" pink and KOC blue shirts, among the many colors) "So, how many people are playing in this league?" M: Well, there's 24 teams, about 15-20 people per team, so you're looking at about 400+ adults playing kickball weekly. S/FK: "That's a lot of people. So, you guys have rules and everything? The red rubber ball?" M: Yup. Pretty much the same as schoolyard rules, except no one gets picked last, nah mean? And we even got playoffs and championships! S/FK: (looks around at the bar again, tries counting how many different color shirts) "So, you guys play, and then come out to the bar?" M: Yeah - it's all part of the experience. 20, 30, 40-somethings playing kickball, then chilling out at the bar. S/FK: "I'm sold. Where do I sign up?" ... Unfortunately, by the time we hit the bar in our red/green/blue/pink/orange/yellow/safety green shirts, rosters are closed for the season and you gotta wait to sign up for the next one. Sound fun yet? NO?! Well, read Justin U.'s review. "Great way to meet new people" is like the unofficial motto. Hey - relationships have been started and blossomed over the game of kickball - when's the last time that happened at a pick-up game of basketball? Kickball season runs from March to June, with sign-ups in January-February - don't be *THAT* guy that sees all the 808 Sports Leagues bright shirts and wants in after the ruckus starts! (And if you happen to miss it, there's usually a Fall season of some sport - Flag Football, another Kickball season or .... dodgeball?) SEE YOU OUT ON THAT KICKBALL FIELD!

Some single, some married, lots of business owners and professionals. If you are new to Honolulu, and even if you aren't this is a great place to make connections and friends. In addition to the monthly events, the Wahines stay in touch outside of the events through a Yahoo Group and a great website designed to make connecting easy.

This lodge is newly renovated. There is a new kitchen equipped to cook big batches of meals, rooms to hold meetings, and a hall for everyone to enjoy dinner.

If you are a visiting mason, come by and enjoy meeting your bros! I've been coming here for years just accompanying my other half. They are more like family not a "social club". Other masonic organizations meet here so there is a good chance that if you stop by, you will meet someone. If you are not a mason, the best chance to know more is.....to be 1, ask 1. Some open events that I've been to are the Holiday gatherings and Officer installations. My favorite events are the family events and the volunteer events they do. A big one is for the Shriner's Hospital of Hawaii. The help raise funds for the hospital's transportation fund. If you are guy who loves to help and be part of something, then maybe it's time you come down and ask about it :)

June 13, 2015 11:00am to 4:00pm…read more I really didn't know what to expect. I was just thinking "water gun" could be lots of water fun. This looked like a group that was opening it up to the public and that was good enough for me to get in on the action and fun. Using the information from their facebook page; https://www.facebook.com/events/963975613646627/ I easily located their location although I had to walk from the other side of the park to get there. I was greeted and I asked if this was the correct place because they were not set up yet. It was and I located a shady spot to plop ourselves down. Other people started to show and I was advised by Ming there will be more coming. That was good to hear. We eyed everyone coming in checking out their armament is possible. We went shopping for our guns the day before checking water capacity, shooting distance, missile capabilities, etc. Gabriel B. settled on a big gun, not the biggest, but pretty darn big and brought his swimming goggles for added protection. i settled on a single shot, quick reload $3.00 gun. This is mainly an Otaku group that was coming together to celebrate their crafts\interests in anime, manga, video games, cosplay, etc. So, we should not have been surprised some came in costume. Sailor Moon, Jasmine, Spiderman and Deadpool. Ming finally calls everyone together to announce the rules to the battle royal of water guns. Many bought, some made. Very impressive. The rules are there are no rules except you cannot shoot the area of the tent and tables where everyone has their electronic equipment including yours. Hmph. Pretty simple enough. What ensued was a battle royal not ever seen before in the history of man and before. The good thing is you didn't have to figure out who is friend or foe. You had no friends and everyone is your foe. Basically, shoot everyone and everything and let the benevolents figure it out. It was so much fun watching Gabriel B. run around in the sun shooting everyone and everyone shooting him. There was no way to keep score. Chaos was at every turn, twist, spin and no one had a dry face nor a dry shirt, or dry clothes. The second event was very interesting to watch too. For those interested, they were broken into 3 groups provided card board boxes and other material. Their mission: build armor and weapons. Once completed, one person from each team donned the armor bearing the weapons into another battle. All combatants were encircled by spectators to keep them in a restricted area. Either 4 or 5 cups were taped on each combatant. The objective: knock off all the cups on an opponent to eliminate. Last armored person standing wins. This was not a pretty or kind battle. Ruthless comes to mind. The attacks were fast. Many of the blows were vicious and hard. In the end, Deadpool took the honors home. It was great fun to cool off while meeting new people, geeking out, in the hot sun at Ala Moana. Can't wait to do it again.
