EASTSIDE KITCHEN

"Might I say; not so great. Also it was my idea me and my friends eat here. Oof. All of us, pretty hungry. Eastside kitchen, sounds quaint food looked ok from the pictures. Why not. I’ve definitely had way better food in an airport terminal. No beer on tap only bottles. Warm bottles of beer at that. And by the way there is no exterior sign for the eastside kitchen. Once you’ve entered the sticky cavernous strange bar you will notice eastside kitchens only sign, real punk rock you may be thinking. Sure, but the food does not at all back up the exclusive nature of a single interior of the bar sign for a seemingly stand alone restaurant. So with all that said there were numerous blushed apologies to my compatriots over a plate of flaming hot Cheetos encrusted corn and a taco that was mostly mozzarella cheese. items a drunken teenager may have assembled from his out of town parents fridge. I will say the service was actually pretty ok so I gave two stars."

"I don't like to write bad reviews and I really wanted to like this place but I'm sincerely surprised at its high rating. I ordered the chicken tacos with the 3-sauces. Very mediocre, basically greasy and flavorless. I may give the street corn a try. But really can't recommend this place."

"Disappointed. Expected same menu selection as Kaneohe. However Offerings were very limited and just pupu type. Small portions. Left still hungry. Table was sticky all over. Sign they don't clean very well. Yes, definitely bar atmosphere . Food tasted just passable."

"Please understand that this is a restaurant located INSIDE a bar. Not a place to bring kids. That said, the elote and tacos were fantastic and affordable. I would probably elect to skip the cheese salsa and sour cream next time for the tacos and only get the consommé, it’s fantastic."
