The lanai tables were for reservations only so we had a great view. Our server, Cliff, was attentive and friendly. We had the strawberry mochi waffle, eggs Benedict with Portuguese sausage, link sausages, coconut espresso martini, Irish coffee, and island smoothie. Everything was delicious.

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.

Food and service was fantastic. There was 3 of us dining and it is served family style (shared). We had Black Pepper Beef; Orange Chicken; Fried Rice; Chicken Won Tons and some Decadent Chocolate Dessert. Plenty of food — no leftovers. Will definitely go back.
