Been coming to hideout for 3 years now every time my wife and I visit Oahu and it never disappoints. The Hamajang Board is a must order. The pork belly Brussels are definitely my favorite and my wife ranks the ahi sashimi with some of the best she’s had. Vibe is always on point as well. Theres plenty of great food around Waikiki but many places in the area are lacking in this department so it definitely sets the hideout apart. Every live music act or DJ I’ve seen there have been great. We’ll keep coming back.

If you used to only think of Kalapawai for just lunches and sandwiches, they are far more than that. Their dinner servings are sophisticated, delicious and quite reasonable for the serving size and creativity. The atmosphere remains very casual since seating is either outdoor (along Kailua Road) or in the back area of the cafe. Noise levels can get a bit high as the night gets busier and I really appreciate Kalapawai keeping the restaurant music-free. Don't get me wrong - - I love music - - but unless it's a concert, I prefer comfortable dinner conversation over having to yell across the table to my companions. One of our friends does not eat meat and he was impressed and thrilled that he had so many options available for him. Service is stellar and every single item we ordered on a recent visit was delicious. - traditional bruschetta to start - nice mix of fresh and sun dried tomatoes - lamb stew - - rich and tender - ahi with scallop & shrimp - lobster sauce was beautiful - portobello burger - - yum - Beyond Burger burger - - just as yum - apple crisp for dessert - - with cherries ala mode - - I could have had this for dinner alone Added plus that not only was our server great, but you can tell that the staff all like each other too and work well as a team. I've been in the service industry for my entire career, and from a workers as well as a customers perspective, if you have a crew that gets along, they always work better together and that automatically transfers to a much better customer experience as well. This was our evening and a few nights later we went back. Our cooktop went out on us that afternoon and we were forced to ditch our plans to cook at home. My husband immediately said he could go for that lamb stew again so we called in an order for that and for the mushroom bolognese. They did a beautiful job packing these up for take out too.

Really nice meal. Tried the Lamb Ragu Pappardelle and was very happy with it. My father-in-law had the miso glazed pork chop and he was really, really happy with it. He liked it so much he gnawed off the bone to finish it off. A choice we made to avoid the cold temperature for inside dining, we did ask to sit outside and had to listen to the buses and Harleys. BUt was better than the cold insdie.

Wonderful experience with food to match. We loved the fried fish , calamari, prawns, and Kalbi. There is nightly music which is also a plus.
