“ Bianca Clay and Morgan are the best trio since the three amigos. The most authentic and original cocktails to the best vibes and ambiance. Great house playlist. The bartenders make the best drinks and servers are on top of it when you're ready for round 2. ”

“ This is one of my favorite bars in Waikiki. It's tucked away in the back of the Waikiki Resort Hotel, and that hidden location perfectly matches its vibe. You step out of the brightly lit hotel lobby into a cozy, intimate bar, illuminated by neon lights, with tasty drinks and dance music setting the mood. The atmosphere is always relaxed. I've seen as few as three patrons and as many as thirty, and it's never felt too crowded or off. It's hidden for a reason, and the fact that you're even considering going means you're on the right track! Now, let's talk about the drinks. They're fun and delicious! I recommend the New York Crush, Shipwreck, and the Char-Tini. And I can't forget the Maunakea Mai Tai. Just the presentation alone makes it worth ordering. The Nene Crossing is also a good time; you're literally drinking out of the backside of a bird glass, which is always a conversation starter! Late nights usually feature a DJ any day of the week, spinning chill house music. It's just enough to get you dancing without overpowering your conversation. I've seen bridal parties come in after fancy dinners and rave about how much this spot added to their night. The bartenders are laid-back and from all over the place, so if you strike up a conversation, you're in for a good time. If you don't come check this spot out, trust me--I'll be disappointed that you missed out! ”

“ Tucked away in the corner of Waikiki, Surfbar is a place you want to take advantage of if you're looking for a lounge with chill vibes and innovative cocktails. One of my pet peeves about any lounge or bar is if the music is too loud or the lighting is too dim. Surfbar keeps the volume just right and has a cute table light for the aesthetic Instagram pics. - Mauna Kea Mai Tai ($22): My favorite drink! It comes in a cute treasure box and is smoked with flavored woodchips. The drink is STRONG, but I love that I can still taste the fruity pineapples and other citruses. - Lavendula ($21): My second favorite drink of the night! It has everything I love: citrus, lavender, and lychee. - Riptide ($19): Incredibly refreshing and pretty! The cucumber and mint were spot-on. - Hawaiian Sun ($21): I felt like I was transported to a Mexican beach with this drink! Sweet and tart with a little kick at the end from the habanero tequila and chili lime salt. Unfortunately, they do not carry any food other than a Charcuterie Board to share from Little Italy Hawaii, and a Naughty Affogato. But I heard through the grapevine that they sometimes hold Taco nights! - Charcuterie Board ($28): Lovely with all the essentials of a charcuterie board. I especially loved the candied blood oranges. I have to be honest though, I did find a dead fly in it after eating more than half of the board. - Naughty Affogato ($20): DELICIOUS. I would recommend sharing this because of how sweet it is, but it was a wonderful way to end the night. All of the staff were attentive to my party and were quick to whip up all of these delicious cocktails and snacks. Overall, this is definitely a place I would recommend if anyone has a group of 4-6 people and want to wind down or build up to a night out in Waikiki. ”
