Reviews
My husband's classmates like to get together every few months, and this time, the meet-up was at Underdog's. It was our first time going, and we vaguely knew where the bar was located and knew parking may be an issue... as crowded as the lot was (and the one next door too), we lucked out and snagged one close to the parking entrance of the road. It's a cozy bar with dart boards and a pool table, too. When we arrived, there were quite a few tables open aside from the middle row, which was reserved for our group. By the time we left, several larger groups had shown up, so the place was busy. We just wanted some light food items to pick at and ordered the butter garlic shrimp ($16) and blackened ahi sashimi ($21). Both servings were larger than expected and delicious. Our friend got the kalua pork nachos ($17), which were a bit different served on top of waffle fries but loaded and delicious nonetheless. The menu has tons of things to choose from, and they also have an extensive selection of drinks, so our group was very happy! Seriously, the best bar food I've ever had!
This hidden gem is great for small group pau Hana gatherings. The drinks were reasonably priced & food was very good. The staff are very friendly & accommodating. It's a nice clean hideaway pub on Waiakamilo just off Colburn St. with a cozy ambiance. Parking is limited but nearby street parking wasn't too difficult to find.
Once again we came here with a huge group of our coworkers, and they were able to accommodate our group. It was a Friday night, and surprisingly it wasn't as busy so our drinks and food came out quick. The food was bomb as usual and the drinks were so YUM! Loved that they made the patron shots HUGE. The service was amazing as usual too, I think we had Nancy, and she took care of us big time. She always made sure we had full cups of water and she came to check on us a lot. Our group really appreciates when our waitresses come around often.
We were pleasantly surprised by this unassuming establishment. Nancy took very good care of us, and all of the other patrons, without breaking a sweat. I loved the fresh made pork rinds. We also ordered sliders and waffle fries. Perfect portions, well priced food and beverage menu. Our new go - to place, before checking in at the airport !
Parking lot is small so I suggest finding street parking. They will announce if you are blocking anyone in though. For some reason our table area did not have any lights so we desperately needed to use our cell phones and mini flashlights to read the menu and take pics of our food. Food is always great so that's why we chose this place. Lots of tvs all over. You can play darts and pool as well. The staff was friendly and the service was great. Will be back again for another pau hana! (Happy Hout)
