Hale ‘ikena - Honolulu

Hale ‘Ikena was Excellent Venue for a Forum. Facilities Spacious and Service Superior.

You can have a catered private party there. There is Polynesian lady (don't know her name). She did a great job in creating a welcoming, accommodating and enjoyable evening.

If you're thinking of getting the Christmas Eve dinner, I would say DO NOT do it. The prime rib was overcooked, dry, and sliced thin. The green bean had no flavor, the mash potatoes were OK, and rolls were regular. The only good thing was the apple pie.

Locations is beautiful, however they need to update their policy to state that they can pick and choose who has priority and remove the first come first serve basis currently written on their policy. They also need to state that the 4 increments does not include weekends... and not say that 's what they do . If that 's what you do then it should be clearly stated in your policy. If the room is available and hasn 't been paid for then it should be fair game. It look like they 're allowing people they know to have priority. Saying a military member requested and you 've been coordinating for months is unfair, since I 'm also a military member that 's coordinating 9 months out and able to pay deposit immediately.

Facilities were great, lots of parking, and a bar. Food was great also. Lost 1 star because sadly the bartender did not to cocktails. Lots of choices to choose from, but mixed drinks (alcohol and soda) is the only cocktails available.
