🫤 A huge disappointment. This was the worst speakeasy we've ever been too. This place is so boring. There's nothing exciting about the place or the food. The portions are so tiny and the prices are so high. I usually don't mind inflated prices if the place is worth it, but this isn't. They crammed eve... People often mention drinks, great,

    A huge disappointment. This was the worst speakeasy we've ever been too. This place is so boring. There's nothing exciting about the place or the food. The portions are so tiny and the prices are so high. I usually don't mind inflated prices if the place is worth it, but this isn't. They crammed everyone in a small part of bar. We couldn't order anything on the "Lux" menu because it took too long to make, and there's a time limit there. We ordered 3 dishes that looked smaller than pupu dishes that we usually get at restaurants, and we got out in 30 minutes. If you're looking for something to post on IG, it's not here.

    Love this new speakeasy downtown! The atmosphere is so fun and classy, the drinks are so dang good, and the food is delicious! My favorite drink is the Okika! It’s so smooth, light and refreshing! I love the Uni waffle and Ikura dish! I could eat those over and over again! Great place to hang out with friends, go on a date, or celebrate a special occasion! Highly recommend checking this place out.

    A very upscale, yet anti-social bar. If you want an open atmosphere and cheap drinks, this is not the place for you. However it is great place to bring your existing social circle and wow them with the aesthetic + $18 drinks. They want a certain crowd there and the reservation-only system ensures that, not really my vibe.

    My husband and I had so much fun sitting at the bar here! We had a reservation for after dinner drinks thinking we would only stick around for a drink or two, and we ended up hanging out until close. The cocktails were first rate, the bartenders were super friendly, and they made great recommendations based on taste. We loved the bar snacks, and for drinks, particularly liked the Soup Soup and the Mojito Tenmasen, as well as a Lillet and tarragon cocktail one of the bartenders made for me. All in all, a super fun experience!

    I went here for a quick drink. Walked into the bar and immediately a blonde girl from the bar stopped me. She was very close and in my face smelling of booze asking if I had a reservation and I said no. She practically pushed me out saying I could not stay. I would have be fine if she said reservation only and left but how rude she was rubbed me the wrong way.

    Pricey! We couldn’t afford dinner after this, but a fun experience for sure! 4 drinks, pork rinds, salmon dip with rice crackers will set you back $103 before tip.

    It was overall a great experience here. It took us almost a month to get to this place. So we were really excited to go. They matched our expectations to some extents because of the good foods and drinks there. The drinks were pretty smooth, and it’s easy to drink. Would definitely go back there again.

    Service, food and mixed cocktails and craft beers were excellent. A special shout out to Michiko N. All her suggestions were on point 💕

    Had a great time here last night. The food was amazing and the vibe was super cool. They had a dj and the owners and staff were very friendly and treated us extremely well. Will definitely come back!

    Love the vibe! If you're new, the introduction is interesting. The atmosphere, lighting, and music are very chill. It's a speakeasy, so you need to have reservations. Prices are high. It's not an all-night type of bar, but a great small date without overwhelming crowds. Presentation and the workers are grade A+. Ps. Great place to experience 👍 go get lei'd

    Fun! Cocktails are inventive and delicious. Lots of nooks to pose for Instagram 📸 the food is great and hosts very gracious. Sweet spot for an evening with friends or family.

    We had a reservation, but there was plenty of seating outside in the back on a Tuesday night. The drinks were all really good with interesting flavors - mine had chili oil in it! They're a little pricey but worth it and the service is great. There's an indoor and outdoor section, they sell fresh leis, and they have a lot of instagrammable signs. Mahalo!

    We went for drinks before dinner and sat in the lighter part which had a different vibe than the darker, clubbier bit. All our drinks were delicious, I especially appreciated the creative non-alcoholic options. Both the shrub and the Ssuk ‘em up were delicious

    This place was recommended to me and my husband from a local while visiting HI. We're super into speakeasies, so we were excited. However, for people not familiar with the area - this is not a great area, at least at night. Lots of homeless people on the sidewalks who approached us. Plus, we found out when we arrived that they were doing last call on drinks at 7:30 and closing at 8, when their website and Google clearly state they're open until 9.
