I went here for a baby shower and it was so great! The lounge is clean and AC was cold. Definitely worth booking your next event!

Graduation Celebration in Honolulu, Hawaii...Remember the good old days when we used to go to Ryan's at the Ward Centre and enjoy each other's company?Well... You can create more happy memories at the former Ryan's...Consider BSIDE lounge + venue for your next event! My sister is a fantastic party planner! She just needed a venue to make her ideas a reality!She heard of BSIDE lounge + venue by word of mouth. Her caterer, decorations team, and set up crew were all in place and ready to go!Good points:* Free covered parking, but low ceiling for taller vehicles* Clean, convenient restroom* Efficient bartender also operated the sound system * Two security guys at the door carded guests, applied appropriate wristbands, didn't let minors go in and out without their parents, and helped us clean up* Servers were efficient and helpful. They removed used plates and wiped tables down when we were leaving * Lots of tables for receptionists, gifts, supplies, cake, party favors, etc* Spacious enough for our party of about 150 people, but can go up to maybe 200?We arrived at 3pm to set up for the 5pm start time. The numerous tables in the front served as our assembly line to create the unique centerpieces. We were able to place the centerpieces on high top tables for two, low coffee tables, and long tables for groups. The variety of seating areas accommodated couples and families alike!The competent bartender doubled as the sound system guy. He turned out to be the manager - and also the guy who unlocked the door for us when we arrived. Sam is the jack of all trades!The food station was manned by my brother-in-law, some friends, and my nephew. They refilled the Hawaiian cuisine from the warmers. The food was catered by Kanak Attack Two. They provided all of the serving spoons and tongs. If you don't have a caterer, BSIDE will give you a list of suggestions.Burt Kawasaki is the gracious and friendly owner of BSIDE lounge + venue. He, his wife and children stopped in to congratulate my niece on her accomplishments!Thanks to Burt and his staff for a very successful Graduation Party! My family and I highly recommend BSIDE lounge + venue for your future party needs!Note: we brought our own tablecloths, party favors from Paradise Kettle Corn, utensils, foil, ziplock bags, napkins, takeout containers, and paper plates.

Our Xmas party was recently held there and it is a great place to hold any type of venues there. It's very spacious and would highly recommend it. They even have any area for a bar and a corner for a DJ. I would definitely suggest to my friends and family and even for my self to host a party there. You can also cater your own food to be delivered there.

I attended my friend's baby shower at this venue. The servers were awesome, and there was plenty of space for kids to run around. They even have a stage area perfect for performances. The daytime view was amazing. Conveniently, the bathroom is located inside the venue, and there's a smoking area just outside on the lanai with a beautiful Aloha backdrop, ideal for taking pictures.

Located in Ward Center on the 2nd floor, this place was rented as a party venue to accommodate about 150 people. Cold AC all throughout, clean restrooms (total must have for me), and lots of parking. Super spacious! All the guests, tables, & chairs and it was not uncomfortable to walk around. Ample stage for bands and a dance floor. Food area could be upgraded a bit but it was good enough for us with counter & storage space and a little sink to wash hands. Bartenders were great. The view of Ala Moana Beach park was just gorgeous at sunset!! One of the best venues in town for sure. I can see this place being a go-to for our family.
