   The food was OK but nothing beyond that. The fries were good, seasoned, and hot. The pan roast (combo with all types of seafood and sausage) was mostly soup. Also, if want actually spicy, be sure to order the "very spicy" level. Otherwise it won't have much spice in it. The proteins in the soup weren't plentiful at all. 5 or 6 shrimp, 4 or 5 clams, a handful of tiny scallops, bits of crab and lobster, not even very much sausage. It should have had about twice as much seafood and sausage. Really not worth the 65 dollar price tag. Service was OK, and the pan roast included rice and two rolls if you want those. Also it has terrible acoustics, so even half full it was too loud to hear and understand my wife talking right next to me.

   Celebrated life of friendship & family over 50 years. We wanted to eat the pan roast combos as we did in Las Vegas years ago. We were not disappointed!!!. The appetizers were ono, calamari, portabello fries, & lobster sliders. The heat level on our pan roasts were perfect, just enough kick for four happy tummys! Compliments to the chef & our waitress. We will definitely return !!

   Wow! The atmosphere was phenomenal, and the layout of the restaurant was modern sleek and stylish. The food was rich in flavor and taste. This reminded me of something from New Orleans or a juke joint in Mississippi. This place definitely is a MUST VISIT!! You were able to see what it look like inside the kitchen as the chef made the food. Moku, provided a great explanation of how the restaurant started. You could bring a large crowd there for gatherings and special events. The only Drawback was there was very limited parking, so we had to make a couple of circles around the block to find parking.

   We had a great time for Mothers Day at Hook’d. The service here is exceptional, the food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect…casual and clean. The parking is a little tricky but we went on Sunday early so we scored. Street parking and I think about 4-5 stalls in the front. Its a very inconspicuous white building. Don’t park in the building for Doraku and Chai. We enjoyed the fried calamari, crab wontons and oysters on a half shell for appetizers. My kids has the fish and chips and buffalo wings for dinner…they enjoyed it. The buffalo wings are spicy. The fish and chips were fried to perfection. My husband and I ordered the pan roast, I had the sausage combo and lobster and he had the hook’d combo. We both got mild and it was delicious. Still a little spice but nothing to cry about. Its like a tomato based paella, very rich and yummy. Next time I think we can share one because it’s large. Anyway even my kids agree (which they normally never do) we will be returning for more deliciousness.

    This was our first time dining here. We had reservations at 5pm and the restaurant was empty because we were the first ones. Feom the time we were seated to the time we left, our experience was a memorable one. We had the restaurant all to ourselves for 45 minutes. Our server, Macelino, was the best servers we've had in a very long time! He is a rare find in a server! He made us feel very welcomed to dine in at the restaurant! He brought our appetizers & main menu on time. He also made his specialty margherita for my Wife! My Wife called it "the Mace Special"! The food we ate was also very delicious and cooked to perfection! We had the fried calamari & portobello fries for our appetizers and our main dish was the seafood pan roast. So far the fried calamari is the best one we have tasted! The portobello fries was also very delicious! I never knew that it could be fried that way! Finally our main dish, the seafood pan roast, was super delicious!!! By far the best bouillabaisse We have ever had! We ordered it medium spicy but I think we could have gone a little more spicy. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends and family. We will be going back soon!

    Went with a few friends to try something new. There are 3 stalls in front of the building and street parking along Kapiolani. Sadly, no clam chowder (only available weekends.) Server was super nice and funny. You have a choice of sitting at the bar or tabletops. Multiple tv’s throughout the restaurant. Got the hook’d pan roast (mild) and it came with rice and a bread bun. Good flavor and had a kick to it. Crab wontons were a tasty appetizer- comes with 6 wontons.

    We had a really nice dinner. I do think for the price it’s very too casual of an atmosphere ie board shorts and T-shirt’s. Cocktails were great, the service is outstanding. We ordered a lot of items off the menu however I say stick to the pan roast and dip the grilled cheese in it. Sooo good.

    Finished a great dinner with my daughter and her bf for her birthday. I saw Hook'd Pan Roast on a TV segment (I think it was Living 808 on KHON) and it looked tasty and something different than our usual dining places so that "hooked" me Easy to find on the Makai side of Kapiolani, right after Doraku Restaurant in the Pacifica bldg. They only have a few stalls right in front of their restaurant but there's street parking in front. The entrance is on the side, entering from Kapiolani. I was surprised how spacious it was inside with both tables and booths and counter seating as well. The counters allow you to watch the cooks actually make your dinners and get served right there. They also have a small bar with some seats as well. There are QR codes at every table and you can actually scan and order online from there. The codes are linked to your table number and then you can actually pay your individual tab online as well. Since it was our first time there, we just waited for our server to come and we ordered "old school" The menu is focused on the variety of pan roast selections with the appetizers and side dishes complementing them. When you hear "pan roast" you might automatically think "pot roast" but you'd be totally wrong. This is more like a gumbo or a seafood stew in a creamy, savory sauce. They offer four heat levels of spiciness; mild, medium, spicy and extra spicy (for those who have cast iron palettes and plumbing ). We went with the medium, which to me provided the right amount of heat and flavor without going overboard. You can taste the seafood and enjoy the sauce by dipping the accompanied taro rolls in it. It also comes with rice or you can order the grilled cheese sandwich and dip it as we did... delish! As I noted earlier, the apps and sides are really designed to complement the pan roast sauce. They offer different sizes of pans and combos. We ordered the Wild Ones Combo that is made for sharing. There were three of us and we figured it

    This restaurant was beautifully made. The ambiance was great. So I had a lot of expectations. Obviously, I wanted to see if the famous Pan Roast would come close to Palace Stations one, but I was lil disappointed. We had ordered the Wild One to split as the portion size was huge. I was expecting it to be steaming hot with some crab chunks but it came out luke warm and hardly any crab. It was missing some flavor. Although I wasn't completely disappointed, I did enjoy the Portobello Mushroom Fries. That was definitely something I would go back for. We also tried the Grilled Cheese, Clams, Calamari. They were tasty but the Mushroom fries were the best. If your taste buds are curious, I would recommend you trying for yourself. You might just enjoy it. I was just not impressed because the temperature of the Pan Roast wasn't up to par. It was on the cold side.

    Their signature pan takes forever for them to cook. The menu is very limited and you have nothing to do while you wait for the main dish. The waiter and waitress are very nice, but their services were overloaded as 2 of them serving 12 tables. At last they have QR code for ordering and paying checks, but the waiters come to do anyways. they should learn some utilization from Chengdu Taste
