I had probably every cocktail in their menu. Their espresso martini was delicious. Their sakura drink was sweet. They spicy mangorita and their coconut girl were the best drinks ever. The views of Waikiki's skyline against the backdrop of the ocean waterfront was gorgeous!

We enjoyed our experience here!! Damian was an absolute sweetheart of a host. Our happy hour experience with him helped us set the tone to our night . He was friendly, fun, and checked in with us just the right amount of times. The view was beautiful and the perfect setting for cocktails and appetizers. We ordered the poke nachos, scallops, and truffle fries and enjoyed all of it. My only feedback would be that I wish the ahi on the nachos was cut into larger pieces, rather than thin/minced - especially in a city with incredible poke options. We also got to try their truffles and cheesecake for dessert. The truffles were rich and decadent - they served a lot but I could only eat 2 at most. The cheesecake was also great! It was rich and slightly tangy, which was really pleasant. Again, thank you Damian and Ian for being such a vibe! We love you and would come back specifically for you!! (Some of the above review comes from my Google review.)

Had to change our reservation last minute to be pushed up 30 minutes and staff was accommodating. Caught a beautiful sunset and enjoyed our dinner and drinks.

We had a reservation that I accidentally booked for 2, but there were 4 of us. They found us a space anyways pretty quickly. We sat on couches near the two-person band which were great to listen to. We had Mai tais, the Roasted Jidori Chicken, shrimp and rice, ribs, Cesar salad, truffle fries,and topped it off with homemade chocolate truffles and gelato. Service was very attentive and friendly. The food took some time to come out but it was ok as enjoyed the sunset views and music. All of the foods tasted delicious. Guess we got lucky compared to other visitors. I'd come back!

Happy Hour is the move here. Plan to be there 4pm or 3:45pm waiting at the door to get a good seat. Happy Hour is ONLY 1 HOUR LONG. Smash as much as you can in that time. Unfortunately, even the Happy Hour prices are still expensive. 2 drinks and an appetizer still put me at $55.... So don't think you're getting some crazy good deal by coming early. It's just less expensive than it is after 5pm. They have the roof shaded for the most part but it's still very hot. Dress cool . Bring your shades. Service is friendly. Good vibes but the price is what brings this review down to a 4-Star. If you're going to have a happy hour... at least bring the drinks under $10. We got the wings which were pretty tasty. My family always loves the oysters. Although not my cup of tea. The California roll tasted good. Fries were really yummy. Mai tai's were bomb. I'd recommend getting a Mai Tai first and expanding from there.

Went for the view and wow, it was breathtaking. Of course, if you have a hotel room facing the ocean, it's not unique to you. Would need to find a seat on the corner or stand if you'd like to get the full view. The restaurant features a "beer garden" with open seating for those aiming to just get a drink or small appetizers. There is shade provided. The other half is a seating area for those who aim to sit-in and order food. There's also an inside area that, from what I was told, turns into a club later in the evening. The staff was friendly, you can enjoy the breeze you feel in the open-air lounge, and their spicy margorita was tasty. Other posts mention the price ($16 for cocktails) but it is a tourist area and it doesn't deviate much from other spots. I also tried the blue hawaii #2 which tasted like it used too much syrup. But that mangorita was addicting.

The lure of this spot is the view. It is a pure tourist/views spot and the prices and quality reflect that. If you want top-notch views of Kalākua Avenue, this is the top spot. If half stars were an option, I'd say this is a solid 3.5. The drinks and food are exactly as mentioned above - slightly overpriced and slightly underwhelming. The drinks have heavy syrup flavors, less fresh, and the food was straight forward and high priced. We ordered a margarita and berry martini as well as a poke dish and sushi roll. The margarita and sushi roll were both good, while the martini was extremely syrupy and poke was very fishy tasting. We also lucked-out with a Tuesday evening fireworks show. While the service was on the slower side, we dined late on a Tuesday evening and our waitress was still very friendly. From our perception, this spot seems to be more of a late night weekend spot with music and dancing. There was live music during our stop in, but it was more relaxed and upbeat. All in all, wouldn't likely return here just for the food or drink, but if taking others to Waikiki for the first time would likely make another stop here just for drinks to see the incredible views.

This place is perfect for sunset! After exploring Waikiki, came here to see the amazing view from the top. Wow! I would come back here for the view. So came in with reservation and requested the table with sea view. The ladies (in front/server) are all nice and accommodating. Ordered oysters Japanese style for appetizer - it was okay, didn't taste fresh so I don't recommend it. The spicy ahi poke and spicy ahi roll are all good tho! I love the greens and seaweeds on top of the ahi poke. They're a lil pricey but the view was really amazing. Perfect to spend the evening while having some drinks and dinner- with the view! I recommend that you book a reservation, they can get pretty full.
