This Underground Restaurant In Hawaii Is Like No Other Place You’ve Ever Eaten

From oceanfront spots to those situated in the jungle, the Aloha State has it all when it comes to remarkable restaurants. And while we love sky-high, luxury restaurants like Top of Waikiki as much as the next person, sometimes it’s nice to experience the opposite — cozy, underground eateries perfect for a relaxing dinner. Located in the heart of Waikiki, this steakhouse serves up some of the most mouthwatering food around... and it's all found underground. Welcome to Chuck’s Cellar: let’s take a look around.

From the outside, Chuck’s Cellar doesn’t look like much.

When you happen upon this location on Kaiulani Avenue, you’ll find a modest sign, painted black door, and menu posted to the side.

When you enter, however, you will descend a set of stairs to this underground establishment that will blow you away with its vintage steakhouse vibe, complete with leather booths, dim lighting, and plenty of wood finishes.

As a sister restaurant to Chuck’s Steakhouse, the cozy cafe specializes in serving up quality, USDA grade prime steaks. The prime rib is a specialty, but you’ll also find a variety of other cuts and marinades.

Of course, because Chuck’s Cellar is located in the heart of Hawaii, it’s no surprise that the menu is full of phenomenal seafood dishes as well. From mahi-mahi and surf n’ turf to seafood pasta and even whole lobsters, you’ll find something for everyone at Chuck’s Cellar.

If you’re craving something lighter, why not opt for the all-you-can-eat salad bar?

Did we mention the scrumptious sides you can order, too? This steak is paired with a delectable baked potato, but you can also order mashed potatoes, steamed jasmine rice, or a bowl of homemade soup.

Don't forget to order one of their signature cocktails to enjoy with your meal!

What are you waiting for? A comfortable, welcoming atmosphere, reasonable prices, and live music await at Chuck’s Cellar.
