I made a reservation based on how late this restaurant advertised being open; knowing that the majority of restaurants in Waikiki are not open late. When I arrived for the reso which they accepted, the door said they were having a private function. Get it together; monitor your app, it’s not rocket science, it’s called running a business.

This place seems like a chain with too much of a corporate vibe and no heart and soul. Food I had (nachos) was horrible. Would give the food and vibe a 1 star but staff were friendly enough.

It might seem a bit odd to eat this in Waikiki, but there's a Texas barbecue place that's surprisingly delicious.It's located right across from the immensely popular Marugame and doesn't usually have a line. They mix and match various items, but the brisket is the tastiest.If you're in Waikiki and suddenly get a craving for Texas barbecue after eating poke and udon, I recommend this place.

Great food if you like BBQ ?. The rub they use on all their meats is fantastic. Set up more like a sports bar than a nice restaurant for date night. Still liked all the food.

This place is great! All the meats are fantastic, and the sides are just as good. Like we’d say where I come from Y’all done Texas Proud!!!!
Great BBQ and we're from TX where we've done nearly all the joints/BBQ trail/etc. Need some TX style jalapeno cream corn on the menu then it would be perfection. ?
Had the Big ol Tex chili dog "local style" was over rice instead of in a bun. It was very good. Person in my group had the taco's due to us being there on Tuesday, he said they were excellent. Other member of our group had the smoked wings and said they were life changing. The waiter was very good.

I ordered take out and had about a 10min walk back to where was staying.I ordered the followingDip samplerQuarter pound of brisketBurnt ends which also came with mac & cheese.Dip sampler none of it was good, guacamole was bland, the queso dip tasted weird, salsa was kinda bland as, then last dip believe a type of fish dip and that was not good either. Chips were also not that great & threw all of it away which is always a bummer to do.Brisket was very dry & tough to cut and had just tasted bland, I put on one of the BBQ sauces that gave and did not care for the sauce.The burnt ends with mac & cheese, did not like the burnt ends sauce it was made with, the mac & cheese was just alright but for me was missing some salt.The place looks very nice, staff was friendly but based on the food I had would not order again which kinda sucks when it a great looking place and seemed like good staff but at best average BBQ.I have a overall 2 stars as I rate more on food then anything else.
