JEN! She's amazing!!! Great service from the moment I sat down!! The drinks were also delicious! Skilled, personable, attentive! She made the experience which is great for them because the food was quite spicy and cooked horrible ?Scallop app: crunchy risotto very undercooked scallops. Pretty much raw w/ a quick sear.Calamari Shrimp app: opposite everything extremely overcooked!The worst was the brisket jerky ? I have beef jerky at home that has the same texture ?‍♀️They scored on their bartender but I definitely won't be eating there again

The Brussels sprouts were so good, and our waitress was super friendly and attentive. Sat outside in the late afternoon it was nice. Can’t speak to the cocktails.

We've always enjoyed brunch and decided to try dinner last night with some friends. We were mortified at the service and food quality. The wrong bottle of wine was brought to us twice. It took a 3rd try to get the rose we ordered. The truffle fries weren't hot, the ribs were dried out and luke warm, the scallops were ok, but we didn’t know what was under them (looked like green undercooked rice and was not tasty) and the salad was wan. We were very disappointed and embarrassed to have brought our friends here.

Food is not so great, but staffing are friendly and welcoming. We ordered waffles and chicken, portion are small for $20 and the chef’s over fried, dried and dried. We also ordered there signature prime rib sandwich, the meat taste ok, cut are thick (about 1/4 “). Chewy, all the big chunk of fat are there. Will i come back to this restaurant in the future? NO!

Business with a heart - their business practices employ marginalized communities, providing food assistance and many more. The ambience is cosy and intimate, the staff are super sweet. The food and drinks - you can't go wrong with choosing anything because they all will turn out good. My personal favorite is the scallop risotto and truffle fries. Crab cakes and seafood medley is good too. There are enough options for a pescatarian like me despite its name.For parking there is a paid parking lot nearby, I do wish we could have parking validated and if you want to make a reservation they'd ask your credit card details and charge $60 if you don't show up which discourages me from making a reservation and showing up during less busy times instead.Dietary restrictions: The place is meat heavy but there are still seafood and small vegetarian optionsWheelchair accessibility: The seating is upstairs. Not sure if there are elevators but we mostly use stairs

lol be careful of the burger… it’s bigger then you think. Appetizers and main courses were flavorful and worth it. Great combination of flavors. The restaurant itself was cute and had great ambience. Staff was polite and friendly. Perfect little hole in the wall upscale restaurant.

The Surfing Pig in O'ahu is absolutely amazing! From the moment you step in, the vibrant atmosphere and friendly staff make you feel right at home. We had crab cakes as a starter - so glad we did they were delicious. The strip steak was absolutely perfectly prepared. The mac & cheese was probably the best I’ve ever had. Smoky, creamy, cheesy and so amazing. Asparagus was cooked perfectly and the cocktails are second to none. We had excellent service from Brook and Katie. And even the Ray the manager came and checked on us. Whether you're a local or a visitor, The Surfing Pig is a top-notch spot for delicious food and good vibes. Do not miss this place. You won’t be disappointed.

Stopped in after surfing because I heard this place was good, and it did not disappoint! Normally not a cocktail guy, but the bartender Brooke seemed to know her stuff, so I let her talk me into the Cupid. It was actually really refreshing and came with a bit of smoky flare. Would’ve gotten a picture of the burger I ordered but it was gone before the thought crossed my mind! Great drinks, great food, great atmosphere, and great service. I’d highly recommend.

I couldn’t believe the menu prices. $30 burgers and $14 French fries. Meal for one, $50. Feel like I just got robbed.

We stumbled upon this great spot for brunch, they have a great drink menu with smoked cocktails. The brunch menu was so good it was hard to decide. Chicken and waffles did NOT disappoint! I think I made a great choice to start the new year. Also the prices seemed very affordable for the quality we received!

Got the ribs, house salad, and garlic mashed potatoes tonight for dinner. Was enjoying it then and will tomorrow! Food was great, service friendly, and left overs.
