One of the worst bars on the island. Food quality was unacceptable and had both hair and bits of plastic in it on my first visit before they removed the Smash Bros. arcade, but decided to give it another shot. Terrible idea. Besides unsatisfactory sanitization standards, the staff here have extreme anger management issues and will actually become violent with their patrons for simple things such as using the restroom while waiting in line to order drinks. Imagine forcibly opening the restroom door on someone while they are sat on the toilet using the restroom, for everyone in the bar to see, and then having them kick you out for no discernible reason while shouting "we choose who we serve" and threatening to call police. The staff here are probably racist, and if you support them then you are supporting the worst of Hawaii. These people have no Aloha, and they not only treat people lower than animals, but are quick to engage in physical threats of violence in lieu of reasonable conflict resolution. I was actually tearing up after this ordeal, I've never been treated worse by bar staff in my life. Do yourself a favour and go to any other bar scene on the island. There are much better options. We are in the process of reporting Osoyami to the BBB and have them conduct safety inspections, to ensure no one gets sick. The only redeeming quality of this place is they have vegan options. Eat here at your own risk. EDIT: In response to the owners statement. No, I am perfectly aware of what happened, and your account is inaccurate. Please provide video footage from that evening to back up your claims. 1. There was no "argument" about the bottle. I had zero issue with the 100% empty soju bottle being taken away the entire reason I went there was to get a 2nd drink for a friend I was meeting that night, and Osoyami was the nearest spot. 2. I took out my ID to be read by the bar staff, placing it in the counter, AFTER the female staff took my empty soju container. The female staff then decided for whatever reason to completely ignore me after taking the bottle, and she walked away instead - during this time, I noticed someone exiting the restroom and went to use it since apparently the female staff couldn't be bothered to check my ID despite asking to see it. 3. Any further escalation at this point was entirely uncalled for, and the owner here stating that I "picked a fight" with another customer looking to use the restroom which is physically impossible, since I was already in the restroom, [and didn't interact with anyone on the way to there] sitting on the toilet when the door was unlocked by a male staff member, for everyone in the bar to see, thus initiating the scene/public spectacle. The male staff then stood there looking at me on the toilet and said "wipe up you gotta leave", stared at me for about a minute, then closed the door while I finished. 4. After exiting the restroom, I attempted to reason with the guy who opened the door saying that what had just happened was very embarrassing/rude. He seemed reasonable for a brief moment, and then suddenly the same female staff from earlier walked behind him staying "we serve who we want here and you've got to go" -- which led me to immediate confusion, then the male staff became physically aggressive and pushed me out of the facility. Completely unnecessary escalation. 5. While outside, I lamented to another customer about what happened, he said "oh so that was you in the restroom? don't worry they Osoyami are just being a-holes", then a different female staff exited the building and started yelling expletives and threatening to call police, as if the confiscated bottle was the main reason for throwing me out when it wasn't an issue with my ID on the counter. It's an excuse for your staff to jump to insane conclusions. At no point did I raise my voice loudly. Nor did I get physically aggressive. This all could have easily been avoided if the staff checked my ID and took my order. The absolute bare minimum would be an apology. Accountability.
This place has a whole vegan menu! The burger was the best vegan burger I ever had. The staff was super friendly and attentive and the food came really fast. Only thing is that it's not a really chill atmosphere. Pretty loud and a lot of gamers.Food: 5/5
A great bar with great karaoke. They have Super Smash Brothers ready to go for a 4-player tournament. They also have many Dart machines as well as old school gaming cabinets with every game you could possibly want to play. Lots of seating and karaoke. Just head up to the bar to ask for a song request slip. We have lots of fun here
I start off with the food We got fried edamame salted however was not really any salt on them Mozzarella sticks- they are frozen but fried good so they least are average. Burgers do not come with fries which kinda does not make sense I got the swiss mushroom burger which was a pretty flavorful burger. My wife got the vegan western burger and said it was pretty good. We ordered a basket of fries to share and was extremely disappointed not salted & just the frozen fries almost like you find at a mcdonalds. Which was a huge disappointment as not to hard to do fresh cur fries and with a how good the burger was kinda took away from the experience of the burger as just frozen fries. The big thing we did not like was the smell, smelled like the have a drainage or sewage issue which. So i would recommend getting your burgers as takeout if that’s a option, skip the fries don’t waste the money. Vegetarian options: 4-5 different burgers 6-7 starters
Great vegan options. Delicious food! Awesome service. Small parking lot out front. Dive bar feel. Trivia night on Wed. Happy hour 6-7pm
Delicious food and drinks! Service is great and the vibe is fun and casual. Love that they have events every night.
Came here for an event a few weeks ago and the “complimentary” food was awesome. Came back to try the “real” food. Had a Truffle Burger that was pretty darn amazing. It was still kinda early when I got there so not too crowded yet but definitely a great chill place to hang out.
Pretty great food and drink selection; really liked the poke nachos and melon cocktail.
Best burgers I've ever eaten on the island! The video game arcade and serious dart setup is very nice! I normally go for the fighting game tournaments they host on Thursdays, some of the very best fighting game players come and play casuals before and after the tournaments. I'm not too familiar with the darts but know a few serious players that come to play there too. Perfect for a date for those looking. The bartenders, waiters, and owner Blane are some of the nicest laid back people you'll ever meet. Great service and great menu, I personally go for the burgers.
Worse thing is that the place stinks, since you cross the door, a very strong smell of sewer that’s probably from the bathrooms.Food: 4/5
