What Alyssa Mendoza Peralta doesn't like about South Side Shaka Restaurant Bar:
Can’t give a rating on food because I didn’t get to actually eat. Walked in at 2pm, there was only one other group there and no one actually working in sight. A sign said wait to be seated but like I said no one was actually in there to help us. We waited 10 minutes and still no one came out so my review is based on lack of service View all feedback. What User likes about South Side Shaka Restaurant Bar:
Had a wonderful meal with my wife and our best friends. I had the fish and chips the fish was Ono and it was delicious. My wife had kanua pork with cabbage, my friend also had that they both loved it and my other friend had Shaka doodle doo, and also loved it. So we had a great meal and are planning on coming back in 5 years for our next wedding vows renewal. Parking: Additional parking in real. Service: Dine in View all feedback.

Bar for locals that is the southern most watering hole in the USA. Stop in, buy a drink and take a pic. Cool Hawaiian vibe.

We came in on a Monday night when only the owner was working. He had 5 separate tabs open and served everyone with aloha and pono. If you expect Kona, go to Kon...

I would leave no stars if I could. This place is not hospitable and was not busy ...to the extent that you...as a customer...would be ignored. I was doing a loo...

I loved the traditional lau lau which is made in house. It was my first experience with REAL Hawaiian cuisine, and an experience I'll cherish.
