Hana Koa Brewing Co. - Honolulu

Food and drinks were creatively delicious and were delivered promptly and cheerfully by our wonderful server, Chris! Will go back again.

Great place for a pau hana. Variety of beers and tasty food. Recommend sitting upstairs if you want a quieter dinning experience.

I really wanted to love this place after reading some great reviews. My husband and I really enjoyed the beers but the food was somewhat of a letdown. The pickled onion rings were the best thing we ate. Marlin toast was decent but a bit rich and kinda just tasted like a diff take on tuna salad. I got the Korean short rib, it came out cold to the touch and well before we were even half way through our appetizer. The waitress very kindly sent it back and returned with what looked like a new piece of meat. I've had short rib many times and this tasted and looked a lot more like a marinated flank steak. The second piece of meat was better than the first and fairly hot but it still had a lot of fat/gristle pieces. The rice seemed like it was the same portion and it was still just as cold. My husband got the jerk chicken sandwich special. He said the flavor was good but it basically fell apart and the bun/chicken/sauce it was in smothered all together with the slaw and became mushy and not great to eat about 3/4 of the way through. Fries were fine but nothing outstanding. It's a very cute place and we were bummed to have this experience. If you're paying around $100 for a full meal and some beers I expected a bit better. The “short ribs” were $21 and def not up to par. The waitress was perfectly lovely and we had good service but food was a letdown.

The food was great, and the drink's delicious! We go there at least once a month.

Best craft beer in the island. Check this place out!
