    I LOVE the ambiance here. The view, the music, the hula dancing are all sublime, and service is good, too! Food leaves much to be desired. My frozen Mai Tai was blah...very weak! My beet salad was very skimpy on the beats and the cheese. The crust on my pizza was so tough it was nearly inedible. If Copper Bar could improve their food, it would be a 5 star experience!

    Food was just Ok. Liked the open air setting but it was quite loud with large groups and families. We went at sunset and the building configuration completely blocks all views of sunset. If you’re looking for a quiet relaxing spot to view the sunset and have a bite, this isn’t it. The menu and views are better at the Westin restaurants next door for this.

    Most of the food was excellent except for the dumplings they were undercooked and wrapper was raw and chewy

    We go to the Copper Bar every time we are in Hawaii. We always loved the food and service. This time the food was just ok, not what we are used to. The service was not what Copper Bar service used to be either. Maybe it was an off night.

    Over priced bar food. Sushi had no flavor and calamari seemed frozen. Service slow. Will not return.
