We would come back again!

Play Tourist and Enjoy Happy Hour…read more Monkeypod is a nice spot on the west side in Ko Olina when you want to play tourist and enjoy a great happy hour. The Korean pork tacos were our favorite bite. The avocado cucumber salad was surprisingly good and very refreshing. The lobster deviled eggs were a nice treat, and you really can't go wrong with the Parmesan fries. Good food, good drinks, and a Ko Olina setting. Sometimes it's fun to play tourist in your own backyard. Make sure you pay for parking and do it accurately, the fines are steep and they are very strict.

The macadamia nut coffee was delicious too, and they even had a whole selection of coffee creamers right on the table, which was such a great touch. Great food, huge portions, super fast service, and everything we tried was delicious. We'll definitely be back!

Better than the Waikiki location! RESERVATIONS- easy to do on the cheesecake app or website MENU-huge menu as usual but they also have the skinnylicious menu which had not offered at the Waikiki location DESSERTS-cheesecake galore. I admit it though, the same flavors call our name. Banana, cinnamon roll. And key lime. On this trip, we got roast chicken & garlic farfalle and skinnylicious turkey burger cuz I'm skinny!! LOL I normally order the regular turkey burger but the skinnylicious one I got on this visit was just as delicious but it was smaller and came with a salad. The waitress asked me if I wanted to have fries instead but I wanted to be skinny so the salad is what I got and it was delicious! We ordered the mango key lime cheesecake this time and it wasn't overly sweet and We just barely finished it I had ordered a dish for take out, and before we could order dessert, the manager came out to apologized that it wasn't ready but the kitchen was catching up and it would be ready shortly. No biggie as we were still going to have our cheesecake. When the server gave us the bill, she said that the manager comp'd the take out entree and the cheesecake! Say what?! Free food is the best food. And the bread is the GOAT! SERVICE- our server was super attentive and friendly. She was so efficient too, bringing everything We needed so we didn't have to ask

We've been here a few times and generally like it, However service is very slow and usually there's a long wait for a table since they're always busy. Service is generally slow but the most recent time we came, we were there for dinner and it took 2 hours. We only ordered entrees so it shouldn't have taken that long. I'm not sure if they were short staffed in the kitchen but the servers were friendly and working hard. I think next time we visit, we will get take out since I like their food in general. The cheesecake is always good and I always take a slice home! ******** Cheesecake Factory Huge menu and a crazy place Crowded and busy

Since the restaurant looked very busy, I waited another 25 minutes, until about 8:45 PM. I then asked for an update on my order, and I was told it would be another 20 minutes. At that point, I asked if my order had even been started, considering it was only two Smash Burgers and an order of fries. Given the excessive delay and lack of communication, I requested a refund. The long wait and poor updates were very disappointing, especially since I had placed my order in advance for pickup.

Everyone ordered the same burger. The village smash burger…read morewith extra patty + cheese! Stack analyst: 7/10 This smash burger was solid. Crispy toasted bun, super thin patties with an awesome sear and crunchy edges. One of the few burgers lately I didn't feel needed extra salt. Could've used a little more garlic aioli, but overall it was delicious. Definitely would get it again __________________________________________________ Double stack Daddy: 9/10 Double patty done right. Crispy edges, juicy beef, perfectly melted cheese, and every bite was packed with flavor without feeling overdone. AIOLI WAS simple, fresh, and exactly what a smash burger should be. Definitely worth the stop if you're craving a legit burger. __________________________________________________ Braddah Big Buns: 7/10 Shmall kine dry, need more sauce, patty too wide for da buns. But buggah still action __________________________________________________ Grilled Apostle: 8.5/10 Order the Village Smash Burger will extra patty & cheese. Very flavorful, but not as juicy as I would like it. Bun was crisp, bacon added an extra touch to the burger making it more than average, delicious! __________________________________________________ Captain Messy Hands, Keeper of the Drip: 7/10 stepping into the smash burger arena for the very first time. Ordered the Village Smash Burger Double Angus patties, cracked pepper crust, mustard, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onions, American cheese, and their signature Village sauce. This thing came out looking clean, sharp, and locked in. First bite? I finally understood the smash burger hype. The patties were thin, crispy around the edges, and perfectly executed the way a smash burger should be. That cracked pepper crust gave every bite a nice little punch, and the sear on the beef carried the whole experience. No sloppy grill work here! This burger knew exactly what it wanted to be. Now let's address The drip. Or in this case... the lack of it. This burger leaned more dry than messy. Not Sahara desert dry and not dry in a bad way, just controlled. Precise. Balanced. The bun actually deserves respect here because it stayed soft, moist, and held together from first bite to last bite without collapsing under pressure. Structurally elite. But CMH lives for chaos. I like burgers that need a stack of napkins nearby. Burgers where sauce hits the wrist. Burgers that fight back. This wasn't that type of burger. And honestly? I still respect it. Final Verdict...A clean, well executed smash burger with serious crust game. Not a drippy monster, but a strong introduction to the smash burger world. __________________________________________________ The Premium Purists: 9.5/10 The Village Smash Burger is a trendy modern burger that still hits with nostalgic deluxe flavors. I was very impressed by this burger. To me it was luxury in every bite! The balance of flavors from the beef, seasoning, sauce and LTO was on point. Buns stayed solid throughout the entire experience. It's a smash so the patties were a little drier but to me the flavors made up for the lack of juice.

We never had our waters filled throughout our entire meal. She never asked if we wanted dessert. Again, I don't think it was her I just think she needed help. She had a lot of tables and a big party she was taking care of. The food was ok. My husband's hamburger looked amazing but lacked flavor. I feel like the patty was not a smash burger patty and it was not seasoned. My tacos were good but super greasy. The pretzel was amazing and I loved the cheese it came with. The star of the show was the ice cream pie. I feel like it was an absolute must! I just love Lapperts ice cream so to have it in the pie was just amazing! The chocolate ganache was rich and heavenly.
