Great little hidden gem. Everyone in our party ordered something different and we were all very happy with our meals. Highly recommend.
Excellent food and entertainment. Haven't been 2 another pub/bar with the same ambience. Looks are deceiving at 1st but once your in the dim lighting adds 2 the mood and barman is the most friendliest guy. Great conversation about varieties of beer and his recommendation of the Californian Anchor Steam beer topped off my night.even better it's literally next door 2 my hotel. Been here 3 days and visited each day and will b visited a few times more before we go👍👍👍
This place is a hoot! Think 70s with a lounge club singer and equally nostalgic decor. Once you adjust to the dimly lit interior just sit back and enjoy. This place has a salad bar (yes, it still exists) that’s pretty good with your ranch dressing (sorry hipsters). The prime rib and steak offerings while not cheap (not much food is in Waikiki) were flavored well and cooked to order. The staff were equally pleasant and made the overall experience even better. So if you want to go back in time and enjoy a pretty good steak this is the place to go in Waikiki.
Let’s start this out with WOW! This is a hidden gem that needs to be exposed. The atmosphere and food were all top notch, but what really made this experience incredible was the staff. They really take care of you and it is just all around awesome service here. The food was great and the live music really sets the mood. Come casual and enjoy a fine meal. This is Hawaii at its finest. Will definitely be back here.

Old school local restaurant! Loved the dark atmosphere with all the quirkiness!
Had a short wait as we arrived right before it started getting busy.
When we called there was no wait, then about a 20 min wait when we got there 15 mins later- Almost missed the entrance!
They Do Not take reservations.
1st come, 1st served.
Ordered Blue Hawaiis at the bar and shortly had a table. All entrees come with a soup/salad bar and fresh bread.
Hubby had steak and I had one of the specials, petite filet with scallops, all cooked as ordered, medium on steaks.
Before I heard the specials, I was going to order the prime rib with shrimp. Unfortunately, I didn't find out till the next day they are known for prime rib, might have gone with 1st choice.
Still, the place is very casual, very comfortable and had quite a few items to choose from.
Waiters and drink servers were all pleasant and that night we had the pleasure of having live music from a lovely pianist.
It reminds me of some of the old restaurants we have in Vegas. Very nostalgic, full of wonder, great food and atmosphere!
If you love the 60´s and 70´s this is the place to go. If you´re not looking for a great dinner that is. Food is mediocre. Had a Surf N´Turf and the meat was...well.. not great. Fish was overcooked. Salads bar (!) was worse than a school cafeteria. However - what totally saves this place is the atmosphere and the bar! Great service. Funny bartender and cool drinks. Everything breaths 1970! Also the live band was a nice bonus. Come here to drink and hang out.
Great little lounge downstairs! Yummy mai tais and great music. We had a lot of fun here. Friendly staff!
Atmosphere was very nice. Live music was great! I'd rather go here for drinks and the atmosphere and skip the food honestly. My amaretto stoned sour was perfect! Food was ok and it was really pricey. I had the Petit sirloin and ordered medium rare. Steak was more medium and pretty tough. Mashed potatoes tasted like instant, kind of smooth and had that watery flavor mixed with real garlic. They did have a nice salad bar that came with the meal.
A solid steak house in Honolulu. The salad bar is cool but not huge. Steak (prime rib) was excellent and their forte. Service was good and quick. Couldn't quite give it 5 starts but was quite good.
The prime rib is really good, lots of flavor and it melts in your mouth. They also have really tasty crab legs, super soft shell and the meat is very rich tasting. Friendly staff as well, and the atmosphere is nice for dates.
Here on vacation really wanted a lobster dinner Chuck's cellar did not disappoint! Certainly not some Michelin star steakhouse but it doesn't need to be! With it's casual attitude and nightly live music it's a must stop steakhouse in Waikiki a few steps away from the beach.

Chuck's Cellar is a moderately priced steak house. It is not quite on par with the higher priced restaurants like Wolfgang's and Morton's, but it was a pretty close runner up, and given the price difference, it was a much better value. The meats were tender, flavorful, well seasoned and cooked to perfection. The items on the salad bar were fresh and crisp and the steak soup was hot and delicious. The mud pie and key lime pie desserts were scrumptious and the portions were abundant. We shared a great bottle of wine from an extensive list which was moderately priced. Coffee was fresh and hot. The servers were pleasant, friendly and did a great job. All in all, it was a great dining experience. We will definitely be back and highly recommend it.
