Kuleana Rum Shack offers an enjoyable rum tasting experience, with a knowledgeable and friendly host. Visitors can sample a variety of delicious rums and learn about their production. The restaurant is recommended for its rum flights and cocktail-making classes, as well as its tasty drinks and relaxing vibe.
The food is fantastic, with great quality and super tasty dishes like Kalua Pork Nachos, Lumpia, Vegan Coconut Curry, Seared Ahi, Burger, Wedge Salad, Poke Bowl, and Malasadas that are even better than Leonard's. The moco loco short rib and curry are also delicious. The place is very casual with a good vibe, perfect for hosting groups or enjoying a quiet meal. Service is awesome, with warm, welcoming, and friendly staff.
Customers have praised the helpful and attentive staff, noting that the food is some of the best on the BI. Fresh catch tacos and Mochiko chicken appetizers are especially popular. Many visitors come for the rum but stay for the food, describing the dishes as amazing and well-prepared. The cocktails and rum tasting are highly recommended, and the staff makes sure questions are answered thoroughly. The atmosphere is busy but inviting, making it a great spot for both groups and quiet meals. Visitors are encouraged to bring their boarding pass for a dollar maitai, adding to the fun experience.
