Ok, 2nd time here and confirmed that 1st time awesomeness was not a fluke. 1st time had Wagyu Sliders and Banana Lumpia with Ube ice cream for dessert, was crazy good. 2nd time had Chicken Katsu and Fried Noodles with the fried Pound Cake and ice cream for dessert, oh Lord help me! Sooo ono. Holy (bleep), this is a hidden gem for food. Employees courteous and swift with service. Inside was clean and did not have typical wet bar smell most bars have. Great experience all around, AGAIN! Be back soon. Mahalo Champs!

We came here for the trivia night on Monday evening and had a great time. Trivia host, Mahalo Mike, was great- funny and engaging, service from bar staff was good too. All ages in the bar and a good turnout for the trivia
This place is amazing. I discovered it by happenstance while waiting for a local business to open. It was around 9am, and football was on. The barman was a white dude with dreads called Michael. He was cool. So was the bar. Can’t wait to come back!
Its the spot. Speaking from military influence. If you like pool good times and and good drinks. Champs. Dont wast your time elsewhere
The place just got a new manager and he has made a great difference to everything. Everything seems more inviting and fun. Live music and DJ Friday nights made it a party.
