Lots of tables karaoke was full so could not sing and this was 4 hours before closing never get any food too. The only thing that is good was the parking had plenty.! Usually spend alot but went to another place that had karaoke.

I came to this bar to get away and the owner or the cook came and started problems with me because I was cheering for my basketball team and he didn’t like it so he told me to be quiet when unfortunately both the TVs was showing basketball games! He was an old man who was bitter. I will NEVER come to this bar to watch sports! The old man is rude!

It's cool. Pupus are great! They have pizza rolls lol!The karaoke could use a volume check, or a dj, but all around a fun local place

Love the locals here, made me feel right at home! Had such a good time, the waitress knew my name and drink (Ciroc Vodka) from the last time I was there. If you buy a cocktail ? the owner gives you food for free all night !

This is a Local's bar. They are friendly with a lot of aloha. If you are a Visitor remember this not a "tiki bar" or other tourist place. Respect the Locals and they will respect you. Good drinks and good food, especially the steak and fries. They take credit cards but cash is King here. Support local businesses it really does matter. While there respect the Locals, their culture, and the place they call home. Come here with respect (pono). If you want a tourist type spot go to Cafe Pesto. Joann's is a special place that we Locals like a lot.
