We ate wings and smash burgers here during our stay at the hilton. During the day time it didn't look too crowded, but at night is seems to be. Seating is first come, first serve and you kind of have to watch for someone getting ready to leave and swoop in. They had good live music and good food. Not terribly expensive, but not cheap eats.

Tiny menu, no kids option, and awful service. Waited over 30min to get served and then 50min to pay the bill!

First disappointing meal while we were here on vacation. We waited over 15 minutes just for a waiter. When he did finally come he was extremely rude. My water had stuff floating in it. Food took a long time and was nasty! I do not recommend at all!!

This was absolutely my first major disappointment on the Island of Oahu! Needed something quick and close. I ordered 2 burgers each with fries (an extra $12.00) and a large meat pizza. The pizza was $26.00 and it was nothing more than a $2.99 Jacks pizza that had been heated up with the same salty / flour powder on the crust! Literally, as seen in my picture, this “large” pizza was no bigger than my hand! The burgers used the same technique as White Castle burgers, even same flavors. The cheese was plastic over the top. I ordered it “loaded” and not one topping. No lettuce, no tomato, no onion, nothing but a pickle spear. The meat did have flavor to it, it was close by, and the staff was friendly, which is why I gave it a 2, but we won’t be eating here again.

Live music with some great musicians that play cover songs. Fills up quickly. Not enough seating. You can easily sit by the Tapa pool, which we did. Drinks can be ordered at the bar and brought to the pool area. Given the limited seating, they could send a waitress 20’steps over into the pool area.

It was my first day in Oahu and my first experience in a Hawaiian restaurant and I've to tell you, the waiters here gave me the biggest shock with their worst attitude. They have really bad customer service and extremely rude waiters. They ignored me completely for more than 20 minutes despite calling them twice to take the order. Later, I was served with utmost disrespect and bad attitude, forget the service mentality. Food was just okay but overpriced. I hope the management trains their employees customer service and hospitality.Other tourists, avoid this restaurant; there are many good spots nearby.

Drinks are good, but the menu has changed and they no longer have a lot of the drinks from the menu visible online. Relaxing location with music and some TV's. Great loaded fries. Really enjoyed it.

No reservations and fight-for-your-own table. That said, it only took a couple minutes to get a table.Limited menu, but we each found something.Strong tasty drinks with quick polite unobtrusive service.Fun band with 80s classics engaged the crowd (or tried to). Yesterday's music was a bit country. Great outdoor seating. $100 for two people with dinner, drinks, tax and tip. Fair for Waikiki.

What an amazing restaurant/bar with the sweetest staff around! We loved it so much that we went two nights in a row. The live music is amazing, and so are the food and drinks. Thank you so much for making our experience there so wonderful!

Restaurant has a moderate diversity of American foods. I got the Singing the Blues burger and all in all it was painfully mediocre. The awesome sauce is better not on the burger. One friend got the Nashville boneless chicken and it was abysmal. I can say without a doubt it is one of the worst fried chicken I've ever tasted.
