Lucky Strike Honolulu

Had a fun time, definitely more for adults and older kids than younger kids. Lots of games to go around. The prize/ ticket redemption area was okay, not that much good things and you need lots of tickets just to get a plush. We had lots of fun playing a few games so we'll definitely be back.

If you want a bowling alley to yourself, go any time at night. If Saturday was dead, I'd suspect weekdays to be dead-er.Upstairs is the alley with a little bar. We went about 2-3 hours before closing time to bowl. Front desk dude had a bit of attitude but I ain't mad atcha because I know you're not making money (it was dead for a Saturday night and worked for my crowd-hating friend).They only have two lanes and oddly, the pins don't quite fall so "easily". Tables were a bit sticky, and the couch vinyls like to remind my thighs that a skirt wasn't the best clothing option to wear tonight. Be careful of sitting on these couches, my tiny friends: they were so sunken in, if I wasn't a thick girl, I probably would've been swallowed whole and ended up half way Francistown, Botswana (Oahu's antipode fyi lol).Downstairs is the gaming area. Looks like a Dave and busters and Las Vegas casino with the bar tops and big screens upon big screens showing sports. Not super loud, but it's definitely "that type" of atmosphere. I was surprised that a Saturday night wasn't banging; there were more young people (like kids? Or am I just old?) than older crowds drinking and playing. Their prize area seemed decent. Their alcohol selection is standard. Good cider. Lots of parking. Not busy. It's ok.

Great for families with kidsHowever, the food was subpar, few bites here and there, ended up going to Jack in the Box. Service could use some work, numerous times our server passing us up without noticing our empty glasses.We're from Vegas so we are VERY used to bright lights, lots of noise and bustle, this was a nice stop off for the kids before heading into Waikiki.

Yes we are back on the island!.Of course we had to came back!..Enjoying playing the various games,Then of course enjoying the good food n refreshing drinks,The atmosphere n the staff was awesome!!.So friendly n attentive!..love this place!!.Will be back soon definitely!.

If you're a serious bowler, Lucky Strike may not be for you. However, if you're into playing arcade games, do a little leisurely bowling, and enjoying drinks, bar food, and talking over the loud arcade atmosphere, Lucky Strike might be for you. We ended up here twice in the past two months because we frequent Ala Moana Center. The first time, we went close to closing time and enjoyed playing games. Like many arcades nowadays, games are played with a reloadable card that you swipe at each machine. The games were dirt cheap and only realized that games were half off because it was a Wednesday. Sound familiar? Yes, one of their major competitors in the area also has Wednesday specials.Our second visit started with a meal. Chauncey was our server and provided us with excellent customer service. He was friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. He made sure to check on us frequently, but not hover. The food? Meh. Typical bar food. I had a spicy ahi bowl. It was spicier compared to most other spicy ahi bowls I've had. The kiddos had pizza and sliders. My son devoured his sliders, but the kid's pizza looked and tasted mediocre. The regular-sized pizza was ok. The burgers looked good, and from what I was told, were decent tasting, but not the best.Will I return? Sure. Most likely. I don't think I'll go out of my way to make another trip to Lucky Strike but it sure is convenient when you're at the mall and want to enjoy drinks and games.

Wasn't quite ready to end my day of drinking so our night continued here at Lucky Strike. They are conveniently located at Ala Moana which was a quick uber ride from our hotel.I didn't check out the bowling area since we had just bowled earlier that day, but it was a great spot as the kids had free reign on all the arcade games while the adults could continue to drink. Win win situation if you ask me, haha! I mostly sat at the bar the whole night. It was relatively empty for a holiday weekend evening which was nice. They had a lot of fun drink names and the bartender was friendly. She whipped up our drinks quickly and checked on our needs regularly. The drinks were on the pricier side though, but tasted good! I got a couple of Moscow Mules and a blue drink (can't remember the name).I, of course, tried my hand at the claw machines, but no luck and it wasn't as fun as other arcades I've been to. The claws didn't have any grip at all and the prizes weren't all that great. The kids had a good time playing games though and got a few prizes at the end of the night.

This little joint reminds me of Dave and Busters in California. It's essentially a video and gaming arcade with a large sports bar that holds about 12 fifty inch TVs and a huge screen TV -- all of which show the different sports that are being televised.What's awesome is you let your kids play while you sit, relax, enjoy some eats/drinks and watch your favorite sport.They are on a card-based system of credits, so you pre-pay for a gaming card and it loads it up on points. Each game varies in how many points it costs to play. I spent $100 on two gaming cards and it lasted my 9 and 11 year-olds about an hour and a half. Meanwhile, I enjoyed their juicy chicken tenders and a cocktail. The Caesar salad I opted to barely touch as it was drenched in sauce and I could barely eat it. The service was average and the ambiance, while loud, allowed me to relax while soaking up the high energy.

We walked in for a party of 15, the staff was able to accommodate us and join 2 tables. Our server Tristan was so awesome! Food was decent just not the fish tacos it's not really blackened ahi. The kids had fun with the games and the drinks were great.

Lucky Strike was the perfect place for a good time! After a full day of shopping at the mall we came to grab a bite and play some arcade games with the family. We ordered the loco moco, sliders and a boozy blue island iced tea. The food was delicious and the portions were fantastic! Our server was very nice and brought us extra ranch and buffalo sauce to try with the fries. The little ones missed having more selections on the kid's meal but they were happy to see sliders on the regular menu. The fully loaded arcade never disappoints! Overall a great experience for the family, we will be back!

Came here on a Wednesday evening with a reservation in the bar dining area. We were seated right away. It wasn't too busy when we got there. Tables are spacious with lots of room. We had a party of about 10 people. Once our whole party arrived, we were able to order our food and drinks. The food came out within 15-20mins, so it gave the kids enough time to play a bit. The kids really enjoyed the arcade games. The kid's order of tenders and pizza was a good size for them, they said it was pretty good. The steak my husband liked, and he especially liked that he was able to request to have it without the butter. The Kalua nacho were alright. We said extra sour cream, but it wasn't a lot still. It was also very scarce the Kalua pork so we didn't have pork in every bite. But I mean it was fine.The service, our waiter was good. It appeared that there were only like 2 waiters at the time, plus a hostess, & then like 2 bartenders. So the service was a bit slow. He didn't even check up on us to see if we needed water or anything. Then when we requested our check, it took like 10-15 mins wait just to get it, then like another 10 mins to get it back to sign. It was kind of irritating because we just wanted to leave already. Would've been nice if they were quicker with service.
