Big Wave Dave's Bar & Grill in Hawaii

"Straight-forward beach town bar and grill with great food and drinks. The service was excellent. The bartender was also the server. She was so welcoming and friendly and great about checking on us, even though she had a steady crowd at the bar. Be sure to stop in when you want a quick drink or bite!"

"What a great place to grab a drink, have a bite to eat and have a good time. Welcoming and super friendly!!! Like Ohana. We visited twice, and would definitely be back. One of our favorite places on the island!!"

"This is a very cool little place. Lots of local history. Great food! Great staff. They surve food on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (we showed up Wednesday afternoon, but came back Thursday to try the food. We had the mushroom bombers (must try!) The shaggy roll (got to meet shaggy!) And the fish and chips (wahoo fish, Ono) Everything was delicious! The staff and the other patrons were very friendly. It's definitely worth stopping in when you are in Kapa'a. They also have karaoke, live music and dancing some nights! We define will be going back! Do yourself a favor and check it out!"

"Honestly just stopped here due to convenient location and so glad we did. The staff here was amazingly friendly and the burgers, fish sandwich, and fries were outstanding. Great local bar you should definitely go here."

"Stopped here on a whim after looking at the surrounding options and Lemongrass was closed. Outstanding food..I mean really, it was that good. Not only that, portion size was significant and dundundun, it's cheaper than surrounding joints. Whoever was cooking in the back, hats off. $100 out the door for 4 people and two appetizers(and two alcoholic drinks). Best teriyaki chicken bowl I've had, ever. Fish and chips and the burger were equally good. Edamame was delicious also. Stop in, you will not be disappointed. Seems like a locals place and I can see why. Outstanding with prices equaling the mainland but better quality."

"This place was so cool. The bartender made my day. Watched Monday night football. Great drink specials. You can have 10 people there and look busy. I will be back to see my bartenders."

"I popped in for a happy hour drink. Great deal on well drinks! Made from scratch Margarita was outstanding - I watched the bartender squeeze the citrus. No beer taps, bottles only. A few local regulars at the bar, and I felt welcome to sit. Didn’t get a sense for if there was food, but after about an hour I could hear that the kitchen was going. I ordered the Furukaki Fries, with the sauce on the fries, and they were amazing! I also had perfect fried oysters, and the cocktail sauce they came with was delicious. They played the Merrie Monarch festival on the tv. I love that they supported the hula participants in this ways. Restrooms were clean."

"We just stopped in for drinks and to watch the game. Great local hangout and best drink prices I have seen on the Island. The bartender was great! Very friendly and attentive."
