Amazing service and creative menu

The food is fantastic and it has a huge drink selection. Cool ambiance. I can’t recommend anything specific because I’ve liked everything I have tried so much. Not sure why someone gave them such a low review previously! It’s a speakeasy…it’s supposed to be hard to find.

Incredible Drinks

Easily the best and most creative cocktails in town. Love their atmosphere and my only wish is for more food.

A sensational speakeasy

Wild Orange:
A sensational speakeasy, reservation required, secret entrance. Fantastic service, along with interesting and delicious food and drink choices.
The venue was a great vibe for what it’s going for. The food was prepared expediently and was very presentable.
Prices were reasonable and the tastes were something worth going out to try. Here’s what I tried:

Hurricane Popcorn: simple, nice little twist as an appetizer/snack

Máneki neko : very sweet, delicious

Beet poke: very nice, good flavor, not an overpowering beet flavor.

Char siu tofu bao: light, fluffy, tasty

Spun musubi : if you’ve been to down to earth- it’s pretty on par

Strawberry coconut tapioca: also very interesting, sweet, light and enjoyable :)

This is a great place to reserve out with a group of friends. I really enjoyed my time there and the food they had to offer.

I give it an excellent 5/5 stars since it hit the mark it was trying to reach and exceeded my expectations. I don’t see any improvements, and this is a worthwhile experience that I would recommend to anyone (also good parking- bring $2 cash)

Pros: Service, Taste, Uniqueness

Coolest hangout spot 🍊🧡

Wild Orange is such a fun place with tons of delicious cocktails and vegan small bites. The ambience is alluring and they play Japanese hip-hop (the dude gave me their playlist on Spotify hehe) It’s a chill place to come hang out with friends, plant-based or not. My fave drink is definitely Hold the Boba paired with the tofu bao for a snack 😍🤌🏻.
The bartenders have been hit or miss over the years, some being weird & aloof and others lovely & super chatty!

Pros: The drinks!, The food!, Atmosphere/overall service

Incredible “bee-gan” bar!

Second time at Wild Orange! So impressed with their menu, wide variety of local favourites such as hurricane popcorn, “spam” musubi more all vegan! The server mentioned they were “bee-gan” as some of their drinks contained Honey but they’re able to swap it for agave so it’s 5/5 for me. Atmosphere is super cool, theres a hidden door to get in leading you from a local music venue to the coolest Japanese vegan speakeasy on Oahu! Cannot recommend Wild Orange enough - service, ambiance, food and drinks was all 5/5 for me! I’ll be back 🍊

Pros: Groovy Atmosphere, Menu variety, Amazing service!

Not worth it

Drinks are not worth it. Walked the block 3 times to get in. No one knew where "brains beach club" you have to go through a fitness center ( who would have thought a fitness center where you aren't dinged up at) I ordered a drink, 3 other people where at the bar, one bartender came out eating and one bartender made the drink, one mixed it and one garnished it, took 15 mins. Try the blind ox instead 100 better. Would have gone there 100 times more then this place.

Cons: Location

Exceptional Speakeasy Vegan Bar

What a find! If you can find it, and that’s part of the allure. Reservations are required, and the only way to do so is to text a request for the date and time you’d like to 808-892-6966. The bar has no website or instagram or any other social media presence. To get in, bring a nickel-you enter by putting the coin in a “soda machine” and pulling the knob. I’ll make it easier for you than it was for me:: To find the “door” go to to the second floor parking garage, walk into a hall off the garage into an establishment called HB Social Club, walk half way down and look to your right where at the end of a dark hallway lies the well-lit “soda machine/door.” No kidding-a nickel is required to open the door.

The food is absolutely exceptional, in a small plate format with options like kimchi potato salad, ahi tuna (tomato based), tofu Bao, mushroom Bao, cold ginger tofu, beet poke, hurricane popcorn, coconut/soy tapioca. But to say the food is the main course in this establishment would be god-awful wrong. This is a bar with phenomenal esoteric delicious drink options, distinguished on the menu by taste- savory, fruity, sweet, bitter, etc. And boy do those drinks present well!

While the food is completely vegan, a few drinks have honey in them. They are very amenable to removing it at your whim.

Service is exceptional, bar none.

Pros: Excellent creative all vegan menu, Creative esoteric drinks, Small, difficult to find speakeasy, great staff

Cons: None
