This was my fourth time here so it's time to review. The food is tasty and fresh. I've had the fish n chips, the fettuccine bolognese, the smash burger and the shrimp tacos. The quality is consistent. The service is also top notch. The servers are pleasant and very attentive. You can reserve a table online or walk-in. I've only walked in and the wait is never long, only a few minutes. I brought my Mom here twice and she loves it. I hope they remain open for a long time. This is an establishment I will patronize more often.
We hit up Happy Hour and leaned into the cocktails—definitely a highlight. But don’t let the drinks steal the show; the pizza is solid, but the ravioli was the surprise winner of the night. It’s the kind of dish that makes you slow down and actually enjoy the atmosphere. I liked the layout. Whether you want to be right at the bar to soak up the noise, tucked into a cubicle for a bit more privacy, watch the live music upfront, or catching the breeze outside, this place has a spot for everyone. {Note: Friday night can get crazy. A 15 min wait is closer to an hour... Nearly missed happy hour. Couldn't get nibbles, as we are now running late for our dinner reservation. 1 hour of happy hour lost...} Bring a group, grab a few pizzas and a couple of rounds, and let the live music handle the rest. Definitely a go-to for a casual but high-energy evening. And grab some "merch" to mark the occasion! EDIT 2026: Kiana and the team looked after us immensely! Ty. ♥️
This was my first time going and I made a reservation for two. Even if you’re a little early, they’ll have you wait for your time if it’s busy. The staff were really nice and welcoming. While we waited, we sat at the bar and ordered a few drinks closed our tab and were moved to a table. The restaurant can be really loud when there’s a bunch of people so prepare to speak a little bit louder. As for the food, my partner and I both got the smash burger with fries. The fires were great and the burger was extremely plain. We just added ketchup and that helped. We both ordered the ginger ale and let’s just say it was pretty spicy coming from someone who likes some spice. Overall it was mediocre based off what we had and i’d rather go somewhere else.
Although created in 1944 by Victor "Trader Vic" Bergeron in Oakland, California, the Mai Tai became synonymous with Hawaii because Trader Vic brought the drink to Honolulu in 1953 to develop the bar program for the Matson Line Hotels, including the Royal Hawaiian. Sheryl M., my waifu, told me I had to get he Mai Tai because that's what everybody loved getting at Moku's. Other sips we had: $8 Deschutes Black Butte, $9 Monkeypod Mai Tai, $14 No Kai Oi, $14 Bartender's Special, $8 Hop Island Beer, $7 Housemade Ginger Beer, $14 Pear Pressure, $14 Wahine Noho Mauna. $88 before tax. All drinks were amazing and the service was wonderful. They remembered Sheryl M. so this tells me this is the kind of place that takes time and effort to get to know their patrons. Five stars! I would have loved to try their food but we were having dinner afterwards.
The pizzas here are outstanding, with bold flavors and perfectly baked crusts. The mushroom pizza with truffle oil is a must-try, and adding chicken takes it to another level. Stopping by during happy hour is a smart move—it's the perfect time to sample a variety of small plates at a great value. Moku ended up being one of the biggest highlights of our Hawaiian trip. The food and drinks easily stood out as the best we had all week. Visiting during happy hour made the experience even better, with generous discounts that made everything feel like an incredible find.
