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

It was terrible. We went for the Thanksgiving turkey special. I don't even think that it was a real turkey. I think it was one of those turkry loaves. Our meal was cold, but we were too afraid to send it back to reheat it. We were not sure what would happen to it if we did or how long it would take. The service was very slow. We were very unhappy but tried to be nice about it since it was Thanksgiving.

Greeting was a little off at first. The separation between dinning and bar confused me while being seated. The bar area seemed to have more room. Albeit, the bar was not that busy. We had fish and chips along with an order of coconut shrimp. The fish and chips were good. They were fried in panko with a stick. Wish they were beer battered. The coconut shrimp was amazing!

A great place to relax and chill after meeting local TV stars from Hawaii 5-0.

Wait time- forever
Poor Service and Servers kept bringing me food that wasn't mine.

Skip it
Skip it skip it!!!
Go to Moana Surfrider
Truthfully the best!!!!!

Good place to take your mother-in-law to get drunk. Hola girls are skilled and live music is good.

Happy hour 2 till 5 with daily specials. Great atmosphere, vistas, and service. I love this place everytime i visit.

oMG Rick, is now my personal bartender. I asked for Coconut Rum drinks. Each drink was different, tasty, yummy, oh so ono!! Great atmosphere here - on a Tuesday night even!! Rick - Jimmy and I love you!!!! Ask for Ricks ONO Cruzen Rum Specials!!!

Great food, service sucked (i.e., wait staff did not like my table change request and service went downhill from there). Lots of missed opportunities to make it right.

Happy hour is good value, service on one visit was poor!

I think the prices aren't the best for the value. It also gets really chilly if you're sitting inside so make sure to sit outside or wear a jacket.

Paid about 42 dollars for two dishes and lemonade/water - thought this was way too much. It was the trio sliders and fettuccine. I thought the fettuccine was way too greasy but it was filling.

I will say that the servers were very nice.

Very friendly. Great atmosphere with live music. Had a drink and some takeaway - fish and burger - both very tasty. Highly recommended.

Stopped for lunch at Tiki's before we did the Diamond Head hike. Waiter was great, gave us great info on some of our plans, very pleasant, friendly. The restaurant was nice, had inside and patio seating, bar on the patio. Lunch menu was casual reasonably priced. Burger was awesome, cooked just as requested. I would totally recommend Tiki's

When Waikiki Beach comes to this point, it feels a bit relaxed. You can enjoy your meal while watching the sea.

Really good service, the food was my amazing and very taste. The waitress was very nice and kind, very energetic and very approachable. However, my husband and I were waiting for this employee to approach us to get a photo but she never did. She passed through our table several times asking everyone if the wanted a photo, except to ours. My husband asked for her and she never came. Really disappointed with that. I really wanted a photo.

Food quality was a disappointment. Very slow service & food slow to come out. Fish tasted old.

Best kalua pork quesadilla ever! I tried one at the restaurant at my hotel and it was a major let down, so the next night I was back at Tiki s. I ve also heard the macadamia but fish is amazing!

Beautiful place to see. Did not have the chance to tour it, but nice place to stop if in the area.

Omg a must!! Food was good. Live music was amazing but Sarah , my server made my night!! Great staff and the drinks! Wow

Excellent food. Great service. Wonderful evening atmosphere on the lanai with tiki torches.

Menu wasn't very big but what we ordered was great and the lava flow drink was to die for!

Staff was kind but the food wasn't all that impressive.

The food is really good & service in restaurant as well but they wait time in the bar lounge is kind of long. Drinks are really strong (I like) but very sweet, you can only drink 2-3.

Overly priced, quality of food wasn't worth the cost

Beautiful beachfront pool
It is an awesome spot. Local music. Great happy hour!

Black man and italian woman walk in first and seated at a table on bar side. White man and white woman walk in afterwards and gets seated next . Guess which couple sits...and sits..and sits and is never waited on and guess who is immediately waited on and checked on twice and immediately brought out waters? I thought Hawaii was different....guess not. Poor service and/or discrimation....one or both.
I only wish this had happened on day one. You see....it only takes one bad experience to shut a restaurant down.

I went with my family a few weeks ago and I thought we had great food and service..
Well I thought I'd take my husband for his B-Day..
Horrible waiter..
My husband ordered drinks and Calamari..
We received the drinks but the calamari never came..
The white male waiter basically argued that we never ordered and I'm a stickler about my husband ordering..
I know we ordered because I heard my husband say it..
We were just gonna have calamari and a few more drinks but because he felt the need to be right I'll never go back nor have my family visit this place. I live here and will not return!!

This spot has great service and food was pretty good. All the seating is outside so check the weather to make sure it isnt pouring. The alcoholic beverages are also delicious. Overall, I had a great experience and I would return again.

Great views if you sit on the balcony and the restaurant is very nice. The food was excellent one the best restaurants on the strip. For being right on the Waikiki beach was pretty reasonably priced. Definitely get the souvenir cups.

Good food. Adapted quickly to special diet
Excellent Hawaiian band! Great seafood risotto.

Great spot for a sunset cocktail with friends. Live local entertainment, too.

good restaurant overlooking the beach, great food, delicious cocktails, friendly service, definitely for the evening reservation

Ate at the bar. Great service and a great hardworking bartender.

Nice place with lots of food options, lovely view. The order took a bit time but it was worth it.

Great food and service, not air conditioned so dress cool.

Food was decent. Unfortunately during the day it can get unbearably hot. You stop enjoying the food. The chocolate cake is amazing

Good place but our food was cold when it was served. Fries were cold too. We went late at night at 10pm for dinner. And service wasn't great. It took long to get food and check and everything. But good location good restaurant.

We had kids with us and it was super windy outside so we snuck I to have lunch. It has a great view and we needed a drink and were able to choose an awesome
Souvenir cup. Food was tatty got the local platter great choice

Great view, great food and solid service. I usually just buy several appetizers so that I can try a little of everything. The poke is fantastic. Both the ahi and beef. Get a side of rice to get the extra marinade left in the bottom of the bowl. Can't go wrong here.

Nice view of Waikiki. They have umbrellas on the patio.
The cocktails are super weak, especially at happy hour.

On a scale of 1-10, mediocre being a 10, then this place is a 10. Nothing really stood out. The food was bland, and overpriced. The drinks were overly sweet and overpriced. The best part was the service and the view. Otherwise, meh.

Love this place. Great service, great drinks, great food. Great music. Great place.!!!

Cannot go wrong with any of the food or drinks here. The lettuce wraps were amazing as well as the fries and coconut shrimp!

My boyfriend and I came here for my birthday and I was very impressed. This place has an amazing view of the sunset. You have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to the restaurant which is why the view is perfect!!

There is a celebration package for $15 you can get. In my case, it was a birthday package; it comes with a Lei, dessert, and the staff comes to sing Happy Birthday.

We got a seat outside on the patio, we can hear the ocean waves. There was also a live band singing. It was the perfect combination.

Food and drinks were good. I got a glass of red wine, the bar tender did a really gracious pour and bought my first drink for my birthday.

I would definitely come again. This really made my birthday amazing! Thank you.

Amazing food, amazing service... totally rained out off the porch seats in a freak rain shower, but the staff was helpful and made sure everyone had room indoors. Amazing crepe cake!!

Great food great location ....our server was great and knowledgeable

Would go back for their butter fish and taro bread!

It's surely a place to kick back and listen to great tunes. Staff is awesome.

Really great food and sunset views. Gluten free options for my wife. Had a lovely supper!

Food is okay. Fish and chips I had wasn't anything special.

Good food, strong drinks, the line to get in took a while but I didn't mind. Friendly staff

Service is SLOW things in island times or waiter was to blame

Food is ok, the meal I had was nothing special but was not cheap. A meal for two with just two dishes and two drinks, no appetizer or salad and splitting dessert will cost over $100.00 the staff are polite and friendly they have no vegan options and one veg option only.

nice view of the Wakiki beach. the waiting staff is friendly and helpful.

Good value for the location. Food and service were very good even on a busy night.

Great food, nice staff, fast service, live music, and great views

The drinks are amazing. The The food.... not so much. I had the Japanese curry on short rib. The rib was decent. Soft and fairly tender. But the curry reminded me of the Hungryman Salisbury steak TV dinner. Not good at all. The coconut shrimp was ok. The Miso butterfish was good. Tender and flavorful. In all this place is definitely OKaay. But on an island full of delicious choices I wouldn t go here. It s like going to the Olive Garden while in Tuscany. Why do that to yourself.

Tiki's is great! Great place for a nice chill hang out and drinks on a weekend, but also great for adult Birthday Parties!

We celebrated my husband's birthday here and I was able to call and make a reservation for the requested amount of people. There was no hassle, no hidden fees, and most importantly no charge to make the reservation! The food was delicious and drinks were tasty. They also let you take home one of their custom Tiki Bar cups (extra cost with drink) if you want a keepsake to remember the occasion.

The view from the restaurant is something to take in as well as there is a lovely vista of Waikiki. The view is even better if you go on a Friday night, as you can catch a nice shot of the fireworks that go off every weekend. I would definitely recommend the Tiki Bar as a nice place for couples, and groups and a great place to celebrate a birthday.

Great food and service. Drinks are really good. Live music and great servers.

I can't give them enough stars! The view was the reason that we visited Tiki's, but the service and the food is the reason that without a doubt we will be visiting again! Our waitress was incredibly friendly! She gave "service with a smile" a whole new meaning. And the food... Oh. My. Word... the freaking food!!! It was unbelievably delicous!!! My dad got the baby back ribs, and these were by far the best ribs I have ever tasted! My dad went to hand me one, and the meat literally fell off the bone. My mom and I shared the Surf n Turf and HOLY COW!!!! Best Filet Mignon and Lobster you can even imagine! And I have tried a lot of filet and lobster... This was unreal! If you think I'm exaggerating, just try it out for yourself!

Very nice hangout spot right across the street from the beach

Liked it a lot. Good food,good specials. Great views.

Perfect meals, was so good! We went there during the sunset and had a perfect view on the colour full sea. Price is fair.

We spent New Years Eve here. We were buying drinks and food from 4 on. Our regular waitress with long red hair was very good. However, at around 10 pm, a dark haired, short waitess approached my sister and asked if she needed a drink. We both wondered why this new girl was at our table when we had already been served all night by the other one. we had established a tab at 4 pm, and when we told the new girl that,she said, " this is what you do, order and pay". Shortly after our regular girl came over and we explained what happened. She said, no she would take care of us. A minute later the dark headed girl came over and yelled at my sister, "dont say you didnt buy a drink when you did"!! She went on rather harshly and extremely rude. We made it clear we wanted only our girl who had helped us all night. AWFUL unprofessional behavior! New Years celebration seemed to cater to only a very young crowd despite there being older people there as well. Chairs were taken away. The local singers were great but then the DJ started. The food was very good, and the red headed waitress, that was it. People were complaining all around us. It could have been a great memory, but not so much this New Years :( Also they misrepresented this party as The Tiki drop. The Tiki drops at another hotel, which we found out after the fact!

This is my favorite place in Hawaii. The atmosphere is amazing and the food is delicious. I don t normally go to the same place twice on vacation but in only six days I ate there three times it was just so good. The best part is their drinks!! No matter what you order you can t go wrong!

Tikis is very close to work and home for me and they have live music. This is a very good place to kickback, eat some pupus and drink some bruskis.

Food was decent. Waitress was rather rude and seemed annoyed that we were even there to eat like we interrupted her free time. If she wants to work a service job she should improve on her customer service skills.

Omg! First trip to Hawaii from Florida. Came for my daughters 23rd birthday and Sarah S. was THE most amazing bartender and totally made our trip!! What a sweet, attentive wonderful gal! She really made us feel special! The band was great! The outdoor bar and atmosphere was just what we were looking for. Highly recommend this place! Mahalo Sarah S!!!

The restaurant is located on Honolulu's main street overlooking Waikiki Beach. The quality of the food is very good and with particular recipes (the well deserved Hawaiian style squids) even if the portions are not abundant. Cocktail prices are prohibitive for dinner ($ 10) much lower if you take them in the afternoon ($ 5). However good compromise
