    予約していたにもかかわらず、当日、お店は閉じていました。外の照明は点灯してましたが、シャッターは閉まっており、中から電話に着信音が鳴り響いてました。しょうがないので近くの別のお店で食事をして帰りに近くを通ったら閉まったままでした。

    The service was unbelievably poor, even for “island time.” The overworked hostess had to take our orders as our server, Jordan, never made it to our table once to even greet us in the first 30 minutes after we sat down.

    Slow service, They were out of a lot of options for sides (no fries or onion rings) said they had potato wedges, ended up with tater tots? Seems like they’re having issues stocking the kitchen. Main came out without the spinach.

    I made a reservation through Open Table and checked hours on Google Maps. Arrived after a 16 hour day of travel to find the restaurant was not open.

    We chose ABays because we had a great breakfast last year. We have food allergies and they have made great accommodations in the past. This year not so much. I booked and outside seating, but they put us inside where it was so loud that we had to ask to be moved. The only option other than two eggs was loco moco without gravy. The meat patty was tasty, but I missed the corned beef has that was available last year.

    Always one of our favorites on the BI!! We love the breakfast and the dinner. Great spot to watch sports, find a beautiful table outside (or inside), great beers, great foods, and always the best service!

    We arrived on time and were TOTALLY IGNORED! No one greeted us, seated us, or seemed to care. So we left and went to Kai’s which was fabulous!
