Eddie and another woman (Romanian) bartenders were insanely kind and personable during my solo trip. This is the place to talk to locals and just hang out. Drinks were outstanding and decor is great! Went multiple times and would go back again if I could!

I came to this bar with my boyfriend so that we can have a drink, mind you the reason we chose this bar is because they were playing Raggae music which symbolizes peace and love. For context, my boyfriend is Jamaican.

So, we sat at the bar, he ordered a drink. Unfortunately, since I left my ID at home I was not allowed to order a drink (understandbly). However, I stayed at the bar sitting with him.

A few minutes later he decided that he wanted to smoke a cigarette so we moved to the smoking section of the bar so he could smoke while he enjoyed his drink.

After we moved to the smoking section, mind you, at this point which was greater than 15 minutes after we got to the bar, another employee came up to us and stated that I have to leave the bar because I don't have a physical copy of ID and said that my boyfriend can't smoke in the smoking section.

My question to him was why wasn't this disclosed to us before my boyfriend ordered his drink? He obviously doesn't want to sit at a bar and drink a drink alone while his girlfriend is sitting outside the bar (Alone).

Given this, I asked for compensation since this wasn't disclosed from the beginning which was denied. The whole time he kept saying "I'm just doing my job". That didn't mean anything to me because you can't pick and choose when you want to do your "job".
You should have done your job from the beginning and asked me to leave when you knew I didn't have a physical copy of my ID.

I say this to say, I felt targeted, uncomfortable, and embarrassed.

I will never come back to this establishment. You guys need to change the type of music you are playing because the energy that you are emulating does not represent peace, love, and or unity.

Idk what all the bad reviews are about. Definitely not a local here, visiting from NJ. I didn't get the bartenders name, but she's Burnette with blue eyes. She was phenomenal, and as far as I could tell, the only one working. Full bar, tables packed, live music, and she was totally holding down the fort. Our drinks were great. Ignore the reviews about visitors not getting good service, based on my experience we got perfect service.

Tried it out but music was too loud to have a conversation and the waitress made our drinks so weak you'd think you were drinking a virgin.

WORST BAR IN KONA DO NOT GO HERE. Our experience started out well till we stayed a little too long. They over charge girls especially. They complain when you ask about it and they are willing to scam you for money. Everything was great until we were over charged for drinks that weren’t ordered. If you go here keep track of what you drank because they certainly don’t.
