Tiki's Grill & Bar and Holokai Grill & Bar Reviews

Great service, this will be my place for my stay. Good drinks, friendly people. Finally found the Aloha spirit! Lots of places seem to have run down since I was last here 2 years ago but Tikis is tried and true each stay!

Update to my original review, pool service is extremely inconsistent. I've been fairly generous with tipping yet the waitress has ignored me so far each time she walks by. I even had my card in my hand and said hello! And she smiled and walked on by. People near me have gotten pool side. Is my money no good here? Although the bartender (shows up as Ambee on the receipt) is AMAZING! She alone gets 5 stars! Hope to see her on future visits!

I will definitely go there, good food Extraordinary service ,Kyle was awesome, little bit expensive , but it worth It.Thanks.

Oh, I loved this place. Going back this year. Food just amazing. Location amazing

So excited to go eat there 'cause of the good reviews, but what a dissappointment... staff were like F1 drivers.. so fast.. meal with fish and macadamianuts was overcooked... instead the surf 'n' turf: lobster tail raw... the whole environment was more like a loudy eatpub instead of a classy restaurant...

Great location for sunset cocktails, then to somewhere else for dinner.

The food is delicious and free photos are given !! Great location !! And really kind

We had multiple Dinners and sunsets, simply outstanding.

I have the ribs didn't like them my beer was warm and I told him and my second beer was warm also

Great Salads, great service, great view and location

Delicious apps and they served me beer at 11am. There's no way I can complain about that

We went here for New Year's Eve and had such a good time. The bill was high but worth it!

Tiki's is at the Aston Waikiki. It gets great reviews because they are written mostly by tourists who don't mind throwing their money away at the Aston and freak out once they see the restaurant's rooftop view of the Pacific Ocean and Waikiki. And that is certainly all well and good. It is an expensive gamble a restaurant takes to earn customers in competitive Waikiki. And when your hotel basically sits in the middle of the jellyfish beach, you better try hard at that restaurant!

While Tiki's has a 5-Star view and atmosphere, you are paying for just that, because on the menu you will not find anything remarkable - especially for the prices.

If you're a local, you know where to find this food and who cooks it better. If you're a visitor, go ahead, check it out. But as you walk farther and farther down the strip every night, you too will see Tiki's slip down your list.

Happy hour is reasonably price. Kristen was our server. She was super sweet and checked up on us often :) good live music and good drinks!

Tourist trap! Very overpriced for the quality you get. There are way better places in Waikiki.

Went here late one night after another bar. The wings, the gyoza and the smoked meat were great. Also had some live music that was really good too.

I had the pig quesadilla and it was a great quick dinner.

Great place to go from the beach to have a beer and watch the sunset. They have a band and service awesome food!!

Went here because a friend got me a gift certificate. Ordered a wheat beer and a steak.

I was surprised by how much we enjoyed the food at Tiki's. The menu has offerings that I've never seen before. We especially loved the local boy smoked meat and souvenir glass.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!
GREAT FOOD! AWESOME PEOPLE!
I GIVE THEM 100%!

I don t understand why this place has 4.2 star. This place is absolutely amazing. Must try their bread and butter! Their butter is another level.

This time I was lucky to sit in a seat with a good view.
Ahi Poki is delicious, but I noticed Pakuchi that I hadn't noticed last time. . If you hate pacchi, you may want to tell them not to put it in first.
Local Boy Smoked Meat is not very pork. Bonito bonito? I think. It was just because I was expecting a smoke-like meat.
It's not that cheap in price.
There are live performances and the view is good, so it's very comfortable, so it might be better to use it as a bar.

Because Carl told me too put 4 instead of 5 - I did. Otherwise it is a 5 in my book. Great service and good tasting food.

Ok the poke needed to be fresher so maybe...

Worst service ever. The food was horrible, the bread was stale, and the food was poorly made and salty. Ramon provided the worst service. We waited for 15 minutes and the check never came and finally gave up and got mad at Ramon for not being responsible for it. Then when he gave us the check to pay, he wouldn't wait and took off. I do not recommend this place to anyone unless you want to deal with the jerk named ramon.

Great views, great drinks, great food. Good for the whole family.

Very good drinks and live music. Food isn t so good... very slow service but very friendly! They do make their drinks strong.

Super awesome location for a great time with great views and fun atmosphere! The 1944 Mai Tais were very good and the souvenir glasses are worth the price, very tall and thick. Food was great, but my husband was not liking his ribs he said was burnt on one side. I loved my garden salad and glad I added chicken to fill me up The pupus were very very tasty. Service was also great. Prices are high for us from Texas.

Delicious meal, great service, and the view of the sunset was the icing on the cake!

Great food & drinks. View beautiful, wonderful sunset. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Fashionable restaurant and bar. There is a live band and the atmosphere is good. Is it a delicious meal?

I love this restaurant! Food is tasty and healthy with high quality! Service is awesome! Our waiter, Shaun was really friendly and helpful! I will definitely come back!

The venue has both indoor and outdoor seating depening on your mood. We saw the band 'Vaihi' on a Sunday and it was a lot of fun. Great atmosphere, attentive and courteous staff and tasty food.

Food and place was great! Our server was a different story! Top 5 worst server ever! Even my teenager said not to tip him but I still did. We were there Sat. between 1130 and 1230.

Excellent waitress! Salt and Pepper shrimp- not so excellent. It s advertised as having tail and head, but not advertised as still having poop ! Every other time we ve ordered shell on shrimp, they had been cleaned, with the slit down the back making it easier to peel. The fish sticks were excellent! One of two coffees was served with a bonus serving of gunk off the bottom of the pot. If it were not for the great waitress, it would have been a one star. It was an expensive, disappointing first meal in Honolulu.

Had our wedding reception here, and it was perfect! Staff was so nice, and the food and drinks were AMAZING! I was also super impressed with the gluten free options. 100% would recommend. Live music, gorgeous view, couldn't ask for more :) Thanks for a wonderful night!

Nice spot to watch the ocean from above Street level.

Great food, awesome drink menu too. Atmosphere and decor was great with ocean front view. Definitely recommend and will return

Nice bartenders Ryder is the Best, don't forget to tip him or the waitresses Britney, Delana and Manager Melanie who runs the bar crew this evening!!!

Management was very accommodating to our large group. Food was excellent Sevice was outstanding. Had a wonderful time!!

Very "top" site, excellent food set with live music.

The restaurant was part of our hotels building. We enjoyed 3 dinners there that were all excellent.

Food looked good, we had to send one back. Taste was horrible. Waiter tried but no credit or anything when we sent it right back. They said it was normal. Will not be back.

LOVE THIS PLACE. the View is amazing, The staff were amazing. and the drinks are amazing!

We enjoyed Tiki's for dinner one night while on vacation. Service was great, food was delicious and the drinks were very nice aswell. They had two live performers but as you can imagine it is a little loud so conversations maybe a little harder to have, but totally worth it because they were great performances. Tiki's is a little pricey, our bill came to $160 at the end for one app, two dinners and two drinks. Even saying that we enjoyed it enough to go back for lunch which was a completely different experience. Service was pretty bad, we waited for almost 15 mins after being seated to have our waitress come by. After receiving our food our waitress came by to ask if how our food was and then didn't come back . We had to get up twice to ask the bartender for drinks, and the last time to get the bill. The bartender was rude at this point and told me to sit down and she would send over the waitress because she couldn't get the bill. I watched her the whole time waiting for her to walk over to our server to let her know we were waiting but she didn't. Eventually the server dropped off food to our neighbors and I got her attention for the bill. Not once did she apologize for the wait and even when she dropped off the bill it was quite hasty. It was really unfortunate because I enjoyed dinner so much we were hoping for the same experience for lunch. Were also the type of people that will continue to go back to being one place multiple times just knowing it's good. So needless to say we didn't go back anymore. I would go back for dinner again but maybe they need more staff for lunch and the staff need to support each other if they are struggling.

Food was fairly pricy but the ambience and service was excellent. The most interesting part of the meal was when we were served ube dinner rolls. They were a real treat.

I got the miso seared butterfish as an entree and it was very rich, almost too much so for a fish dish.

Great place to eat, just got to Honolulu, 12 hour flight, it's raining, its dark and late, walked 1 block from our hotel, place was very crowded. Told us 45 minute wait ...Kind waitress got a table out of the rain, dried it off and was incredible to us....Guess we looked pretty tired, food was great, service unbelievable. Went back next morning for a great breakfast, again treated wonderfully. Highly recommend, good food, great service!!

The best food in Honolulu, followed closely by Nico's at Pier 38. Always happy to return here for surf 'n turf, Mai tai and lava cake! :)

Came here on 2nd Jan for a dinner. I ordered the Kona Big Wave beer and the steak. The beer was refreshing and the steak was cooked to my perfection. Only downside was that there was no veggies but minor issue.

I would recommend this place, when you order cocktail and beer you get a free beer glass to take home (check the menu it states)

This seems to be a asian infusion Hawaiian restaurant located at the 3rd floor of the ASTON HOTEL. the parking would be street parking unless you are a hotel guest so they have their own parking arrangements there.

live music rolls nice on weekends, they have live music that goes till pretty late and it is pretty good music at that too.

service was pretty nice and the waitress was very quick and friendly.

SHARK BAIT - fun drink, comes with a dry ice so you have the fun smoke coming out of it. But be aware of the splash zone, the dry ice will make waves at the cup!

GYOSA- with the yelp check in right now they give you a free gyoza appetizer so make sur ero take advantage and CHECK IN! T is a fried beef gyoza with some spicy sauce and a sweet eel sauce as well on top. Pretty good I must say, a little oily but not too much tots ok.

COCONUT SHRIMP- looks pretty nice and comes out super nice and hot. Can absolutely taste the coconut and the balance of flavors is amazing. Comes with a sweet and spicy sauce that works pretty nice.

this was a nice and played back bar night, bar food at the outdoors with some live music, perfect.

This place was awesome! Very good service and tasty cocktails. We had the ahi tartare appetizer, lilikoi glazed duck and macadamia crusted fish for mains, everything was delicious. Nice place to see the sunset too, cheers!

Friendly staff, lovely cocktails, beautiful view and yummy food!

Super delicious food, excellent. The wait was work it.

Conveniently located in Waikiki. Street metered parking is available. Great spot for a quick bite and or a drink. Had lunch here and was very satisfied.

This place has great food but is really busy! Well worth they money to get some quality food!

Cool shop with a beautiful roof terrace, we had live music at that time, but do not know if that is always the case, if you order a Mai Tai (which is very good, by the way), you can keep the glass

Sit at the bar, drinks are great, bartenders are amazing.

The atmosphere and cuisine is to die for! Gorgeous view, service, and plenty of seating

Friendly servers, popular place, good location, good bar menu, always a deal available every day of the week.

Family friendly restaurant with great food. Highly recommended

It's really pretty when I glow here, but frankly the food was the least tasteful I've ever been to. The server is very friendly, the beer is ok, and the outdoor seating is so pretty and nice. In particular, someone recommended lip, but it was not the best lip I had ever born. All my stars are out of sight.

The staff is amazing and super friendly! The views are phenomenal! Now let's talk about the food! I had the catch of the day (ono or wahoo). That fish melted in my mouth! Came on a bed of orzo, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, basil and a creamy sauce that was out of this world! I would easily go back! The fish was moist and on point. My sister got a parmesan encrusted chicken. The chicken was juicy and so flavorful. Oh and they had taro rolls!!! Yum!!! Great for families as well! I would definitely recommend!

Ordered pork ribs and lamp and shrimp. It s not that good and really doesn t worth the money. I personally will prefer the $6.00 cold noodle salad at ABC store than this $40.00 lamp shank.

Awesome service, awesome eats.
The Loco Moco is great. Put a little Sriracha on it.

Had such a nice time here. The view is phenomenon, service is great. Would definitely come back.

We did great on choosing Tikis to spend our last day in Waikiki. The view was amazing and we loved our Tiki glasses.

Great music, attentive service, colorful touristy atmosphere in a great catering way

Great food. Happy hour 2pm to 5pm. Awesome atmosphere and ambiance. Live misic at night and crazy nice view on sunset over tge beach !!!

Great food, great staff. Try the Hawaii 5-0 Lava Flow cocktail..
