Had lunch there today. I read mixed reviews below but my visit was positive. Nice "beach shack" atmosphere as it is right across from Kailua beach park. I had fish burrito (very good), my wife had fish burger which was Waloo (also very good), check $30 with 2 soft drinks. Would eat there again if in the area. BTW, desserts... more

Buzz's is down the street and across the canal from my home. Such a lovely setting on Kailua Beach and a killer place to take someone for drinks and dinner. My wife once told me "honestly Eric, do you have to judge every restaurant by it's food?" I guess not, and that's the point of this review. The food here... more

My girlfriend and I went here for lunch on a weekday on the advice of some local workers. It was a pleasant, shack-style place with healthy food and a relaxed atmosphere. On the downside: it is far from the beach and expensive, however the food did taste nice and fresh and the outdoor area was cool on a hot day.... more

My husband and I recently relocated to Lanakai and we were really looking forward to adopting Buzz's as our local hangout but when we showed up with our infant daughter they wouldn't let her in with her stroller! She is too young to sit up and our tiny stroller was actually smaller than the large high chairs they tried to... more

I was visiting a group of friends who live in Kailua, and we went together for dinner at Buzz's on July 17, 2009. The locals will tell you that the food is -- in their words -- yummy. And, in my own words, I concur, it is YUMMY! We received great service, and I thought the salad bar (although it... more

My wife and young son (now 4 years old) eat at Buzz's at least 5 times every time we vacation in Kailua. For us, we prefer lunch as the prices are reasonable, portions are large, and desserts are awesome. Dinner is a bit pricey and the restaurant tries to serve food which is a bit too classy for the atmosphere.... more

Across the road from one of Oahu's prettiest beaches, Buzz's always seems to be crowded. If you do manage to find a parking spot, you may find yourself waiting a while for a table. Mostly it's your usual reasonably priced "pub grub" but the calimari steak in breadcrumbs and lemon butter sauce is definitely worth trying. more

Had a native to the island take us there cause he grew up there and he said it was great. Honestly it was ok. Seemed like a bunch of hype. I did not try the steak cause it seemed overpriced so I stuck with the Ahi Poke and side of white rice which was really good. My wife had the... more

I grew up on the Windward side and have spent many dinners and lunches at Buzz's. Unfortunately, I found the quality of the food to be slowly declining. If you stay with the fresh fish, you should be ok. Some of the appetizers are excellent as well...calamari steak...mmmm! A little crowded inside and pricey for what you get, but worthwhile... more
