Super slow service, we waited for one hour or more for the food and just ordered burgers.
The burger was ok.
They have a few beers on tap and a full bar.
I guess they have live music sometimes.
When in Molokai!
Not a lot of options on Molokai. Definitely recommend coming here. The tomato jam burger was great and the mussels were amazing!
Great assortment of beer including local brews, thought hamburgers were especially good as well. Great service and fun island atmosphere
Have been here a few times and have left ultimately satisfied and happy. This time it seemed they’ve gone down hill. When asking for a menu you’re directed to the two boards on the back wall while we used to actually get real menus. We waited almost half an hour to get our first drinks at the bar, never got acknowledged by two out of the three bar staff. The lady that did acknowledge us made less than appetizing drinks. We ordered somewhat custom drinks which we’ve done many times before and were served tasteless drinks. The guava martini I ordered was just vodka and guava mix poured into a glass, no lemon/lime, no sweetness, no shaken with ice, nothing special. The drink was warm and difficult to get down. My friend ordered a custom vodka, fruit mix drink blended and his tasted like water with a touch of mango. While initially trying to find flavors we wanted for drinks the bar tender pulls out the drink menu we originally asked for…..We opted to not get food there and ended up leaving after hoping our second less complicated drink order would turn out better. Sad to see one of the only places for drinks and music become unappealing.
We had tomato jam burger and fry and the pork gravy plate, it was on rice and egg on top. Everything was delicious and service was great, everyone was very attentive. Enjoyed the locals having a good time.
We were here 5 years ago, and it seems to have gone downhill since then. It was never a classy place, but open air seating and decent food was what you could expect. This time around, half the items on the menu board were crossed off and the ones that were on the board were VERY overpriced. I was shocked to get the bill for 4 people, with 1 beer, and have it over $156, without tip. I know Molokai is a sleepy island, but there has to be somewhere else to eat dinner while on island.
Fun place food was very good!!
Avoid this place if you can. There is not much choice in town, but it should not take an hour for the food to come after it took over 30 minutes just to place the order. I'd leave and go elsewhere, but all other options are now closed. I would tell you about the food, but they chose not to serve me. At least they remember to serve my beverage. And it is not that busy!
I mean, we didn’t expect all that much walking into this place. They had about 3 things on the menu.. well it was 5 things but they said they were out of two of them. I got the cheeseburger which was okay, it came with a sauce on it that gave the burger a good flavor. My partner got the crispy pork platter. It was a few pieces of pork with white rice and their tomato & onion sauté. It tasted very bland except for the pork. Their prices are for sure a little steep.. 32$ for the pork platter and 18$ for the burger and if you want fries with the burger an extra 3$.
The environment is spacious and fresh air, we really liked that. You can tell this is where the locals come to hang out and hear some live music.
The service was good, we ordered and sat right away and waited about 10 minutes for the food. The lady at the counter was attentive.
Either way , check this place out for enjoy some local vibes.

Nice restaurant and bar. Great hangout spot to watch games and listen to music. Prices seemed a little steep, but there were good happy hour drink specials. Nice food options, and it tasted good. Really nice service and decent drink selection.

Portions were small, and meat was fatty. My wife ordered a gin and tonic and got a gin and soda. Wait staff was not attentive. Band was great.

We came for dinner and waited an hour after ordering and they told us they were finishing up a large table order and we were next in line and we're very apologetic. Thirty minutes later the table who came and ordered after us were served and no sign of our dinner. We were hungry and annoyed and cancelled our order and left to go somewhere else. Very frustrating experience and we will not return.
