Lanai

I thought I wouldn't like this place since it's no longer Mex but I might even like it better now! The drinks are good and strong. The Blue Hawaiian is my recommendation if you're into tequila. The bartender is friendly and the atmosphere is chill. I love how open it is now. Only bar on East & Alexander I love. The outdoor seating is great too

We went there for some quick drinks and happy hour snacks. We had the pleasure of talking to the owner behind the bar, it was great to hear the history of how Lanai was started. We just had a couple apps but they were absolutely incredible and I can't wait to go back next time to try their full menu and have another slushie!

We shared the Poke, the Kimchi Rangoon, and the ManaPuas. The food was tasty and the service was decent,save for our server forgetting we also ordered scallion pancakes. In the end what we split we were full from, so we didnt need it. $40 all told not bad. The cocktail choices on the menu weren't particularly my favorite, but then again I'm not interested in those so much.

Delicious food and great service. I'll admit I was a little tentative to try some of the more unique dishes like the tuna poke or Korean poutine, but everything was made very well and the flavors paired perfectly. If you chose one of the dishes that's only $8 or less, I would recommend trying two if you're hungry.

I've only been here once but it was a very positive experience. We went on a random weekday night, so there were only a few tables besides us. They have tables on both floors and a full bar on the first floor. Decor is adorable. Bright and clean looking. Someone greeted us as soon as we walked in. They had an entire vegan menu for myself, and a regular menu for my friend. I ordered the tofu bulgogi and a margarita. The margarita was ok. But the food was absolutely delicious. The sauce on the tofu had so much flavor and was just the right amount of spicy. My friend ordered the chicken version of my dish and he also enjoyed it thoroughly. The server was attentive and nice. I look forward to coming back and trying more from the vegan menu!

This past Friday we had my dad's surprise 60th birthday party in the back room. Although this was Lanai's first party, they handled it perfectly. Chris and Rico were so helpful and it couldn't have gone any better. They were not only accommodating, but they went above and beyond with the food, personal bartender and even helping to plan the surprise. Highly recommended.

Had a great frozen mixed drink here. This is a new place but they seem to have everything together, good service and atmosphere, clean. The restrooms were decent. I enjoyed it there. I think it will do really well during the summer as they have several 'slushi' machines that they make drinks like Pina coladas in. Very tasty.
