Parking Garage Nightmare

Hey guys, looking for some advice. We went to a show at the Hawaii theatre last night (Saturday) and the parking garage locked and closed down with our vehicle inside. We took an Uber back to our place and then back this morning to get our vehicle. Parking garage is still locked, there’s no contact information whatsoever and not sure what we should do. Were locked up on Bethel St. any suggestions on what to do? We leave for home Monday

*Tourist* Where to buy 7-Day Bus Pass?

Hey everyone,

Apologies if this is the wrong place to be asking. I’ll be travelling to the beautiful island of Honolulu next week. I’m wondering, where would I be able to purchase a 7-Day bus pass? Is there any places in HNL airport, or within walking distance that may have the passes to purchase? I’m aware that I can’t bring any luggage onto the bus, but I’m trying to plan out my transportation for after I’ve dropped off my luggage. Also, are there any bicycle rental shops in the area around the airport, or a bike-share type of system?

I appreciate all the help! I’d also be grateful if anyone could recommend some restaurants or food stalls that deserve more attention! Anything is greatly appreciated, as it’s my first time travelling to Honolulu.

Thank you,

hey everyone! i’m visiting Waikiki for about two days and i’m looking to play basketball during the evenings. can anybody give me the lowdown on what the safest basketball courts are around Waikiki? Sorry if this doesn’t make much sense, i just want to avoid as many sketchy characters as possible :)

Ala Wai Community Park seems to be the closest courts to my hotel, but if those get sketchy during the evenings im definitely willing to make a drive to some less sketchy courts. Lemme know if you have any thoughts or recommendations!!

Review of Arancino Di Mare

Review of Arancino di Mare

My husband and I booked a reservation for Friday night based on all the wonderful reviews. We’re here for a couple days from another island where we live and we’re excited to have good Italian.

The waiter was nice but would disappear for 30 minutes or longer, didn’t refill waters, and would forgot to bring us drinks we ordered.

Okay. So not bad. They’re so busy- it happens. You might be thinking the food will be worth it.

My uni was slimy, very bad smelling, and so gross. I thought maybe it was just me, since I haven’t had it before but if it was any other seafood I would have thought it was bad.

Well. Yep. There’s a reason I only had a few bites…. high fever, severe stomach cramps and vomiting have ensued. But the uni wants out. The doctor said at urgent care it’s definitely food poisoning and that’s really the only thing I ate that my husband didn’t also have. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but then again maybe not.

So would I go back? No.

What's a good place to donate yarn?

Still cleaning out MIL's house. She was a prolific knitter and had several large bins with yarn. Many still packaged up. Where can I donate these? Are there knitting groups that might want them?

Trying to find someone

I know someone who went missing a couple years back. Last I knew they were primarily homeless around Laie. Is there anyone to work with to find individuals who are homeless in the area? My hope is to get the individual the help needed and get them home to family and friends.

Best omakase other than sushi Sho

What would you pick if you can’t get in at Sho? Many of the other posts asking similar seem pretty old (3-5 years) so wondering if the landscape has changed at all. Prices comparable to Sho are fine.

Muay Thai in Honolulu?

Is there real Muay Thai in Honolulu?

I know there’s a ton of MMA and BJJ but I am more interested in pure Muay Thai, as in clinchwork, sweeps, knees, elbows, etc.

not watered down “Muay Thai” which is basically kickboxing with some knees.

Similar beaches to Lanikai Beach?

This beach has me enamored, it is so beautiful and peaceful. Everything about it has me feeling on cloud nine.

It has truly captivated me to say the least!

With that said, I'd be eternally grateful for any similar recommendations.

Please and thank you of course!

Best furniture store for space-saving?

I found a unit I really love, but it’s super tiny. I really wanna make it work. Can anyone recommend a store where I can check out to see accommodating furniture? With so many tiny units in town, I imagine I can there’s gotta be something in town…

Above Ground Swimming Pool

Aloha, Long time lurker of Reddit.

I'm trying to get my family one of these INTEX Ultra XTR 18' x 9'. Actual size is 18' x 9' x 52"

You can find on Amazon pretty easy however none of them will ship to Hawaii. A problem we face alot. Ship to Hawaii is expensive too!

I was able to find a different site that allows me to ship two of them to the islands with free shipping.. however, I don't need two. Anyone want to jump in and split up the overall cost? Your cost would be right around $850. I've got a truck that I can help drop off with if necessary.

Each bugger weighs 275lbs though!

Let me know if anyone is interested!

Any bar/restaurants to watch soccer matches?

Hi still pretty new to the island. Looking to find the soccer community that watches matches that are on at reasonable times, like champions league tomorrow! Looks like Giovanni Pastrami is a good option but parking in Waikiki is rough. Any other options?? Feel free to meet at Giovanni’s otherwise tomorrow at 9am 😁
