After passing by this placed fir the pass months, figure give this place a try. For sone reason, I haven't seen this place busy, and now understand why We walked in, and and sat down on the porch out side overlooking the the corner of Ala moana Blvd and Ena rd. The ambience AC bx decor seems nice, but the frank Sinatra music did not match at all . After we been seated, our server greeted us , and informed about the menu, ordering pizza pasta and drinks through the menu, and use the QR code to look at a burger menu. After 5 mins looking through two different menus we decided on one pizza and a burger. The server then repeated the order but did not write anything down. The server dropped off dirty silverware and napkins to our table. We ordered the pizza combo bars, and the Hawaiian burger. With no onions and sauce on the side since we won't know how each sauce will taste like or pineapple that might overpower each flavor. 25 mins later we got our order snd the server apologize about the sauce not being on the side. I did reiterate no onions right? The server said yes no onions. Well after looking at the burger I did see sone onions, and the server never came back to the table. Another sever/ bartender stopped by to refill our drinks, and I asked if he could check on our that we ordered. He can't back and said that we ordered another burger. I was a bit confused but explained e ordered the Hawaiian burger that suppose to have pineapple inside but didn't see any inside. It also had onions. The pizza was good, however it was not served hot. No condiments of park cheese or red peppers was offered. It was funny to see other tables offered that by another server. Last we go up to the counter to pay our check. Overall I was very disappointed with service, and got the price point of the burger, it seems overpriced. $15 plus burger is pathetic not severed wit any fries even the Big Mac or jumbo jack burger is bigger than there burger

We tried this eatery as it was close to our hotel. Contemporary decor with both outside and inside tables reached via the front door. The guy behind the bar was the only one working the front of the house. He was working hard to keep up, but he had his hands full. There was a cook in the back. We waited to be seated, for our drinks, and to order. Eventually, 3 of the 4 of us received food and started eating. Once they had completely eaten their lunch, my food arrived. It was a dry, salty pressed chicken breast - completely inedible. The only food item that was good was the fries - hot and delicious! None of us were impressed with our entree. Give this place a miss!

Great new place for burgers and pizza. Short walk to Hilton village. They accidentally made second round of drinks but offered it for half off and then didn't charge at all.

I told you to look for an update :-) Came back a second time.... I thought I wanted to have a drink but decided I wanted to try the margarita pizza instead. Glad I did! I am not a major pizza eater but for some reason I really enjoyed this pizza. I liked the taste of the dough/crust....i usually leave the crust behind, but it was warm and tasty so I ate the whole thing . My friend had the Italian sausage mushroom pizza and he said it was good. Pizza are around 12 inches.... As for the service, we were greeted and served immediately. Payton provided perfect service along with the Asian guy (so sorry I didn't get his name). Would love to come back to have one of the amazing looking cocktails. They have beautiful bar...definitely give it a try if you are in the area for a super cool ambiance!

First the good - for a restaurant in Waikiki, the food prices were fairly reasonable, a CPK sized pizza ranged from $16 to $22. The appetizers (mozzarella sticks $9; pesto garlic bread $10; and calamari fritti $12) were affordable as well. The cafe itself is very homey with pleasantly muted lighting and attractive wood paneling. But... The quality of the food was marginal (I guess you get what you pay for). The mixed drinks are horrifically overpriced. And the service was...almost non-existent. The best thing I could say about the service is the staff was not rude or mean - but we only saw our waiter to give our order - and then when our food came. Placing our order required a 20 minute wait despite us casting longing glances at our server. The food did arrive fairly soon after it was ordered, but I would have died of thirst if my daughter hadn't shared her drink with me (a drink that was never refilled - or even offered to be refilled). After our meal was concluded we waited and waited to get our check - but our server never reappeared and the host we asked for the check seemingly could not be bothered. I'll admit - as a single dad out with his daughter - we're probably not prized patrons for these restaurants - but this was pretty much the worst service I've ever experienced in terms of neglect. Oops - the host just blew past us again - still no check.

The view, the staff, the new furniture and settings are tremendous. Wish we had come here sooner! Great value and extra clean since it is a new place. The menu is fantastic.

Loved the staff. Food was dressed up to look good but was not at all. Staff at the store across the street saw me with my box and said the same thing. Noodles had hard parts where they were probably sitting at the top not boiling. Both the Alfredo and marinara sauces were terrible. It def came out of a Costco bought, large canned up processed trash, salted down, just cheap. Same as there counter part Kan sushi next door. Olive Garden would be way superior to this canned crap that is plated nicely.
