Had the most amazing experience of drinks In love with all the creations. This place is perfection.

An intriguing speakeasy tucked away in Hilo. The menu was both creative and fun, and all four cocktails we tried were good. The food was also impressive.

Spent Christmas Eve there with my Kid! Best evening out in a long time. Cocktails were beautiful and delicious. Service was fabulous. Such a fun little place.

Stumbled onto this place and loved it from the minute we walked in. Only had 2 cocktails but both were delicious and very unique. Service was great, and we got a lot of info about the area from our bartender. Highly recommend a stop in here, and we will be going back before we leave Hilo.

Excellent place. Austin is an incredible ambassador of the Hidden Nene. Every single drink we had was outstanding and even better than the last. Absolutely go out of your way to talk to Austin, and ask him his recommendations based on what you like. Amazing bar. Incredible service. Would go out of my way to go again. Thanks Nene.
