Solid all you can eat spot with good quality meats and side dishes. Wish they had more options for meat. The 2 hour time limit is strict which I find annoying since they take so long to bring more meats when requested

I visited this restaurant with my colleagues after a late shift at midnight, appreciating their closing time of 2 am for those who work late. We were a group of nine, and initially, I was unable to try any side dishes. The seating area was a bit cramped, with chairs placed too closely together. I requested some side dishes from the waitress, but they did not arrive. However, I decided to give it another chance and returned with my daughter. This time, we were able to sample some side dishes. While the food didn't leave a lasting impression, the service was exceptional on this visit. The staff were attentive, regularly checking on us, and assisting with cutting meat and grilling. I would consider returning in the future.

They changed their menu and no longer carry the barley ice tea that they used to have. They also need to update their menus still because the server told us things that were different from what the menu said. They also have a self-serve station now for veggies and sauces. Recommend having a reservation. They time your reservations and will warn you how much time you have left on your reservation when it gets close to ending. I remember the meat quality being better before, hence 3 stars for food. Parking is limited and we used their valet service during dinner time. Overall the experience wasn't terrible and I'm willing to go back and try them again.

Cool experience. The steak was the one thing that we really couldn’t eat. It was too chewy couldn’t really cut a knife through it. Shrimp, chicken, and brisket were good.

Just off the plane and in need of food. We asked hotel staff for recommendation and this was it. Our server, Jose, was awesome and over the top! The food on the other hand … more fat than meat, skimpy on the veggies. I didn’t love that our veggies were sitting out in the table when they sat us. It did not speak “fresh” to me. All in all, it was overpriced and lacking in quality.

Great KBBQ experience! My first time here for lunch hour (~1pm). It wasn’t busy, we got seated immediately. Shoutout to our server who asked if we had our student ID (10% off for UHM students with valid ID!), she wanted to remember to give us discount! My friend and i definitely ate our money’s worth, the lunch special is worth the price! Everything was very clean and vibes were great. Also they have a call button system so no need wait long for them to get their attention—FIRE experience.
