Rivals

★★★★☆ 3.8 (263) • $$

"....every other spot was closed or their kitchen was and we were so desperate for food lol. Stumbled across this inconspicuous gem and loved it so much we've gone twice in one week! If you don't know it's there you may miss it because the door isn't on the street. There's clear doors that open to a foyer area and once you walk through that, then you arrive at the entrance to Rivals. It is visible from the street but it almost looks like a hotel entrance so unless you happen to look down the hall you may not notice it from the street. But if you're starving like we were, we were leaving no door unsearched lol. We were immediately greeted and seated which we were impressed with. I asked a server as I was walking to my seat, impatiently lol, "do you guys serve food???" She told me honestly yes but they were very busy and short staffed that night and it could take an hour or so to get our meals. Although that could've been viewed as horrible, under the minimum optioned circumstances we appreciated the honesty and decided to stay. We were pleasantly surprised that our server confirmed the potential wait very humbly but offered drinks and options that may be faster to help lessen the wait. We actually decided to just order what we wanted and accept the wait but the food came out rather quickly! We ordered the chili cheese fries & wings (not pictured due to how quickly we started eating and I forgot to take a pic lol!) and pizza. All verrrry tasty as well as reasonably priced! And hot!! Our server, known as "Angry Dave", was more than hospitable. He was very accommodating, friendly, and personable. We were pleased to see he was available to serve us when we went back for our second visit! This bar/restaurant will be frequented during our stay here. Absolute BB referral!"

Anyplace Cocktail Lounge

★★★★☆ 4.2 (142) • $$

"First of all congratulations on the new location!This is my OG of OG and gosh how cool and spacious is their new spot though on the flip side parking is now the biggest challenge. I totally love the vibe here as it's super huge in comparison of their smaller former space it's incredible how many tv's they also got as there will never be a fear of missing out no matter where you're sitting.As soon as you step in there's a white board filled with specials and the one that caught our eyes was the Laulau plate...yum! Their regular menu is filled with all things we love like Spam & Egg, Fried Noodles, Kal Bi, Lechon even Vienna sausage. We did order the Laulau plate along with Garlic Soybeans, Chicken Wings, and yup Saimin!Everything was super good and just how I like it feels like home and comfort foods. The staff here is just so friendly and constantly checking up on us and all the tv's was just a great disconnect to a forced conversation lol!Nice and spacious to brings groups of all sizes to enjoy whatever the occasion brings Anyplace is the the place to be!Thank you!"

Camelot Restaurant & Lounge

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (10) • $$$

"Camelot is one of the Korean hostess bars on Sheridan Street. It's located across the HMSA building in that mini strip-mall slew of hostess bars. Parking is rather tricky, but valet is available. I'd much rather valet than drive in circles looking for street parking... But if you prefer street parking, your best bet is near Walmart. Perks: + Cute Korean girls - they have better looking girls than a lot of other Korean hostess bars + Average prices + Valet parking + Bar-Hopper friendly - Camelot sits next to two other hostess bars. Bar hopping made easy!Yelp 365 - #076/365"

"Came by on a Friday night in early January to check this place out as the videos and photos online look cool and I saw that it was a newer club. Not having clubbed in Hawaii before I did not know what the scene was like so it was interesting to check it out. When we got here around 11 PM there was no line outside and it was actually pretty quiet. It's located downstairs from Barnes & Noble so at first it took a while to find the entrance. When we got inside, they checked ideas as well as did security before taking the elevator downstairs.Once we got to the main entrance, they gave us our wristbands, and we were able to give the place a look. It was honestly pretty empty and we were surprised that for a Friday night that there was no one there. There was a few people but really, it was pretty empty. We asked around and they said that Saturdays are a much better day to come. The facility itself is really nice and open which I really liked. And the decor and concept is also pretty cool, maybe I just need some time to pick up traction and maybe Saturday would be better. We didn't get the chance to stay long, but hopefully next time we come, they'll be a larger crowd. We also do not have to pay to get in, so that was also nice."
