Outlet Stores. Need I say more? 12 minute drive. Great open air feel. Mid-day can get hot, late afternoon is better when sun is lower.

Sports Bar
Excellent sports bar if you are looking for a place that is sure to have the game on, with tons of TV's, a great selection of food and drink, and only a mile or so down Kapolei Parkway. Also, they categorize it as a 'Korean Restaurant' but it is much more akin to a Sports Bar atmosphere. Although they do have some Korean Bar type food and drink choices. Interesting fact: the DB stands for 'Duck Butt' after their original location in town.

Food scene
Excellent Italian Eatery. Great vibe, great menu, great wine choices. Excellent choice if you are looking for a place to just have a nice dinner with your special someone or your family that isn't a tourist hot spot. The breezeway immediately adjacent is a great spot for waiting, and also houses the entrance to the Kapolei Commons Movie Theaters.

What's better than cooking your own Japanese wagu steak? Awesome family fun experience with a taste of the famous Japan Steakhouse that allows the family to sit around a grill in the center of the table and cook all types of delectable treats. Beef, Pork, Poultry, Shrimp, Fish and Veggies. They've got it all, with a parade of sauces to make anyone's mouth water. Cold Beer on type as well... if you close your eyes you can imagine you are in Japan... with all the smells and tastes of a Japanese Standard.

An excellent 2021 addition to the local favorites... Chef Chai is a local celebrity chef who commissioned this under one of his students, and the food does not disappoint. The Prime Rib is to die for. Great vibe, staff that goes above and beyond and a nice walk around the outdoor mall afterwards is a great way to spend an early dinner.

Live music, Hawaiian Breezes, Amazing Food. Arrive early or get a reservation. Easily the most popular eatery in Ko'olina, so make sure you call ahead to avoid the crowds. Worth it! Oh, Sunday and now Saturday afternoons around 330PM or so, you'll see the original Hawaii Railroad cars up-close and personal as they make their afternoon stop at Ko'olina for Coffee or Ice Cream at the Creamery next door to Monkeypod. Great experience for the kids.

Arrive early. A somber reminder of the travesty that is war, and a moving experience to pay homage to those that died for our country.
