Restaurant + Full Cocktail Bar Under One Roof in Side

Yes — Hawaii Restaurant in Side old town is both a full sit-down restaurant and a proper cocktail bar under one roof. Pair a wood-fire steak or pizza with 30+ cocktails, beer or wine without switching venues. Open daily 10:00–02:00, with free pickup from selected hotels.

One venue for dinner and drinks in Side

Plenty of places in Side old town do food well or do drinks well — few do both properly in the same room. At Hawaii Restaurant & Karaoke Bar, on 512. Sk. in the heart of the old town since 2000, you can sit down to a full meal and order a genuinely made cocktail from the same table, from the same team, all evening. No walking to a second bar after your plates are cleared. Starter, main, and a round of drinks all happen right here.

That matters more than it sounds. When dinner and the bar are separate errands, one of them always gets rushed. Here you can take your time over the menu, let the grill do its work, and keep the drinks coming at your own pace until closing at 02:00.

The food: wood-fire grill and stone-baked pizza

The kitchen is built around a wood-fire and charcoal grill, which is where the steaks and grilled dishes get their flavour. If you're here mainly to eat well, that's the draw — a proper char you can taste. We've written more about the grill in our guide to the best steak in Side, and if you'd rather share something casual with your drinks, the best pizza in Side pairs just as happily with a cold beer.

On the honest details that matter to families: all our meat and chicken are halal (halal slaughter). Pork is only prepared on request, in a separate area with dedicated equipment. We are also a bar, so alcohol is served — this is a place where you can bring the family for a halal grill and the adults can still order a cocktail or a glass of wine. No overclaiming: halal meat, family-friendly, drinks available.

The bar: cocktails, beer and wine, made properly

The other half of the roof is a full bar with 30+ cocktails. That means the classics done right — a Mojito or Raspberry Mojito, a Cosmopolitan, a Long Island Ice Tea, an Espresso Martini — alongside our own Hawaii Martini and Hawaii Special. Fruit-forward drinkers can work through the frozen Twister daiquiris and a Strawberry or Pineapple Daiquiri; there's also a Moscow Mule for something sharper.

Not in a cocktail mood? The fridge runs to Beck's, Carlsberg and Corona, plus wine by the glass and lighter mixes like white wine with soda or sprite.

Every price lives on the live menu — we don't quote figures here so you always see the current one.

How to pair a plate with a pour

Because both sides come from the same kitchen and bar, pairing is easy. A charcoal-grilled steak sits well next to a short, strong drink — an Espresso Martini or a Moscow Mule holds its own against the char. A stone-baked pizza to share is happier with a cold Corona or a glass of white. And if you're settling in for the night, the Twister frozen daiquiris are the crowd-pleaser to keep the table going. Our dine-in experience guide walks through what a full evening here looks like.

Karaoke, sport and Happy Hour

Being one venue means the night doesn't have to end with the meal. There's karaoke if the table's in the mood, and live sport on the screens — football, the Premier League, the Champions League, Formula 1 and hockey. Happy Hour runs 19:00–20:00, a good window to start the drinks before dinner settles in. It's the sort of place where a quiet dinner can turn into a long, easy evening without anyone having to move.
