Paige CJanuary 8, 2015President Obama eats here every time he visits Hawaii. We got to meet him! The food was delicious - don't miss the salad bar!
Rachel SullivanJanuary 28, 2013Waitstaff can be great *if* they think you're a local. Calamari steak can be ordered off-menu as an entreé (2 steaks), and is DELICIOUS. Salad bar w/ unusual offerings like seaweed salad and avocados.
LindsayJune 11, 2013For dinner, call ahead for a rezzie. For cocktails and pupu, try to snag an outdoor table. Do not miss the ahi poke - "Freshy" cocktail (instead of Cuervo, upgrade to Patron) - "Chinese style" fish.
HONOLULU MagazineApril 26, 2012Perfectly situated across from Kailua Beach Park sits this retro-styled restaurant that takes you back to the good 'ol days of Hawaii. This place is known for fresh fish and great steaks.
Alex BaezJuly 20, 2012Coming from NYC in a place we pretty much have every kind of food. The food here is delicious I had the calamari steak and fish burrito along with a Mai tai and b.f.r.d drink food here is sooo good.
Bianca SwanepoelJuly 22, 2014The Jack Daniels burger is sensational! Best burger I've had in the States.
Mia FerrerApril 18, 2015The steaks are amazing, rivals any overpriced pretentious steakhouse. My husband and I love love love the wood char flavor and it is perfectly seasoned. With a beer😋mmmmm
Calamari is the best, don't expect to be able to put in a to go over the phone. 95% of the time they'll refuse, even if it's not busy. I recommend going straight to the bar if you want a togo order.
Kids plate was only 10.95, teri steak (or chicken), rice, greens, and salad bar! The salad bar is amazing, try the sour cream dressing smothered on avocados :)
Cristina CostacheJune 21, 2014Calamari "steak" is the best! The artichoke was an unpleasant surprise and the burgers are amazing! Be aware: BFRD is still very strong!- Maxwell Da SilvaMarch 1, 2021Calamari steak for appetizer is a must go. The Jack Daniels burger or the open side crab sandwich are fantastic.
Ivy EscribanoMarch 22, 2016Their calamari is the best I've ever had. There ribs were to die for and enough for 2.
Greg StephensonApril 29, 2019Great service, great food. Highly recommend the ribs, sirloin or any of the market fish dishes
Sarah RodegheroFebruary 24, 2013Try the gazpacho - very tasty & refreshing on a hot day :) they are very generous with the drinks too!
Sherry Lin-BrownApril 12, 2010Great Hawaiian beach vibe and right by one of the most beautiful beaches in Oahu. Mai Tais are dangerously strong so get the FBRD instead if you need to drive! Kids-friendly for lunch.
Jason LeeSeptember 2, 2010For those wondering, the Mai Tais are basically three types of rum with just a hint of mix. They have a less vicious version, but why would you do that? Steak was tasty and vegetables fresh.
Jon PetersJune 9, 2012Service was atrocious. Nearly everyone, save one bus boy, had major attitude. Walked up at 4 to be made to wait outside in a tiny, hot area of the outside deck until dinner at 4:30. Steak was good tho
Sandra BaezJuly 21, 2012Calamari steak then say yes to the bread they offer after to dip into that sauce. Noms!
Nim OrnilloOctober 26, 2011Great beachside shack in Kailua. Stiff drinks, delicious pupus, chill vibe.
LaLa SAugust 18, 2011If you like picturesque views while eating s*%t and being s*%t on by the terrible waitstaff then check out Buzz's. :)
BadAttitude TravelsNovember 29, 2012They have a "President's Table" where Bill and Hilary once ate at.
Amy AlstonFebruary 1, 2011Kailua Passion, artichoke surprise and fresh sashimi...perfect for after the beach!
Daniel GutenbergFebruary 9, 2010Try the artichoke surprize or the calamari if they happen to feature poke then thats whar you want !
Jimmy JohnsonFebruary 23, 2012Avoid the open crab sandwich. The burger wasOK, we weren't quite digging the smoky taste from the wood.
