Food at Aulani

Monkeypod is good if you are only ordering off the happy hour menu and expectations are such.

When some of you mention that Monkeypod is loud, what is it loud from? People talking loudly and club music is different than loud ukeleles to me. It's different enough that I will either go to happy hour there or totally avoid it. Also, I won't get the chicken.

They often have live music and the type of noise is going to depend on the genre of the live music that happens to be there that day. I've definitely never seen anything like "club music," and the atmosphere is definitely family-friendly if that's a concern.

People are comparing it to places like Mina's Fish House which is fine (albeit casual) dining, it's a silly comparison in my opinion.

Totally agree with all this.

We had a dinner at Monkeypod during our last trip and it was fine. The food is definitely nothing to write home about, but was fine. I find it lively. That can be loud if you want a quiet dining experience, but I didn’t find it loud.

I’ll likely visit again on my upcoming trip.

I've never eaten at Monkeypod. Anytime I walk by there to go to ABC, Starbucks, or Mekiko, I can hear the loud music, which tends be typical overplayed radio music or a person playing a guitar singing the typical overplayed radio music.
