Bonsai Restaurant + Lounge

Great service. Food is awesome! Super happy hour place for pau hana Friday.

It's seems like Bonsai has been around like forever and I never even heard of this place until our good friends suggested a "Happy Hour" get together.

Our group of 10 came in at 5:00pm when they open their doors and had a table reserved for us. First thing I noticed was the sticky floors? I seemed like they had taken off old carpet or something..Not a problem except that you can hear yourself walking!!

I must say that the Happy Hour Menu Prices are really great! <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bonsai-restaurant-lounge-honolulu?select=htJlbtpWiof5dg16RE3SJw#fZXugx0g2raNuyUfzh01SQ">http://www.yelp.com/biz_…</a>

We came here for a wedding shower & were impressed at how nice this place is!

The food was more of a pupus style, but it was enough for all of us women.  The spread included tossed salad, spicy karaage chicken, kalbi meat, spring rolls, gyoza, vegetable crudite, edamame & a couple other items.

We sat upstairs & had the whole place to ourselves.  Being that we got pretty noisy at times, that is a good thing!  Staff was pretty attentive at clearing our plates from the tables & checking on drink refills.
