There is such a cool vibe and the outdoor space is huge, with multiple bars, tables, fire tables and a fire feature to sit around. The spicy pineapple margarita was delish and food was great! Plus happy hour prices so we tried multiple items for a great price!"

Fire pits, live shows, fresh drinks and three bars . Good job Pono ."

Cupcake is a cake cover band and the scrunchies is an 80's cover band that kicks ass and I'm not kidding. The bartender Jeremy was totally accommodating and friendly , plus he can pour a mean whiskey n coke! Overall I will go to this place again ...... Cheers"

They had quite good drinks and I really liked their green tea shot! It was a very sparse crowd when we visited but it feels like one of those places that get crowded some certain times, would definitely check their on Instagram befire heading there to see if they have live music or not."
