This place does not hold back when it comes to portions, especially with the Italian beef sandwich, which was loaded with tender, flavorful meat. The crispy chicken wings were another highlight and paired perfectly with their house-made pickles, adding a nice, tangy contrast. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it easy to relax and enjoy the meal. The friendly vibe and generous servings really set this spot apart. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for hearty food served in a comfortable, inviting setting.

The gyros, cheese fries and cheese curds were top notch and the staff were super nice. It is a bit of a hole in the wall with a kitchy atmosphere but if you're looking for good pub food you'd be hard pressed to find better!

I would give this place ZERO stars. The man EDDIE (guess he is the owner) was extremely rude to my guest. His wife said he was having a rough week or something. He didn’t seem to want to serve a black man, he wasn’t treating the white people that way. I’ve gathered from others in the community and reading reviews he is a racist and treats black people poorly. My guest was kind and polite. I won’t ever support and would not recommend supporting businesses like that.

Went one week and sat at bar, got food and drink and left tip. Eddie the owner was struck me as rude and indifferent. Went second time, it was half empty with a few drunks sitting at the bar and one table. There were no chairs at the bar so sat at a table and sat a very long time waiting for service. Three employees made eye contact but never came over. Then Eddie came over and asked me to leave in the rudest way possible.

I had separate tabs—I paid for my first drink in cash and offered to put the next round on my card. The owner tried to charge me for three drinks, even accusing me of stealing a beer I had already paid for. His own bartender confirmed my cash payment, yet the owner still got salty. We asked, “Why would I need to steal a beer I already paid for?” Instead of handling it professionally, he tossed my card back at me, leaving my group offended.
They won’t see my business again—and you can save your vote in 2028. As a future presidential candidate, I’ll recommend Leo Taverna on Bishop for gyros and Red Bar in Chinatown for good drinks and real customer service. 🇺🇸

What to say...
I stopped in for lunch with a friend. They(the bar) had a recent death of one of their cooks. So the typically jovial atmosphere was a little mournful. If you are local and care about local places and people, please, please stop by and have a toast for their newly departed. We are all in this world alone but the comfort of good people in our time of sadness goes a long way to our own path back to normal.
Now about the place, the food was great! Gyros were just like one on a Greek island. I would recommend the cheese curds or the loaded tater tots. The drinks are drinks, I don't need to tell you about how a beer tastes.
The atmosphere is very mid west. If you've never been to a local Chicago bar this is the closest that you can get to outside of Chicago.
Next time you're in Chinatown stop by and kick back, relax and enjoy.

Bartender was extremely rude, he must be upset that he has to cosplay in a haole chicago police uniform. Chicago dog tastes okay, but was. 3/10. Super small, not close to authentic. Will not be coming back, would not recommend to friends. If you are tourists from chicago maybe you would like it here. Yikes….
It was very empty when I walked in, Which is not normal for Honolulu bars, when I walked out I understood why.

Always a great time. The music can be a little loud if you are trying to talk with others at your table, but great playlist.

Great food and service. My husband and I stumbled on this casual spot around dinner time prior to going to a local play near by. It’s more of a sports bar vibe and what appeared to be a pretty solid group of frequent customers. There was plenty of seating, server was friendly, attentive and made great recommendations. I had the Gyro which was loaded with meat & delicious. My husband had the burger and it was one of the best burgers we’ve had in honolulu after living here for 2 years. It had a really good garlic sauce or something garlic based that was mouthwatering. We spent about $60 for 4 drinks (beer/wine) and good. Will definitely return when we’re in the Chinatown area. 🤙

This place has food that is deceptionally good. Beer and Hards are at a great price point. if your in downtown honolulu looking for a spott to cool off with a beer and have some ono food. Look no further than Night Hawk. Chicken Sandwich that destroy Popeyes, Italian beef sandwiches that fill you up for the weekend along with other bar classics made to perfection. Be sure to try their BLT.
