Food: Ho-hum taste profile
In the arena of creativity, Shootz certainly shines with its fusion of Hawaiian classics, but taste and freshness leave expectations hanging. Bold flavors and unique combinations abound, but ambivalence rules the taste test with a hit or miss approach. Portions meet the adequacy marker while reported value lacks charm, with concerns around overpricing and limited variety suggesting a dubious return experience.
Very Creative
Bold flavors, unique combinations, perfectly elevates Hawaiian classics with fusion.
Okay Taste
Some found food satisfactory but not exceptional, price considered.
Bad Variety
Menu is limited, not enough choices for repeat visits.

Vibe: Unromantic settings
Shootz would need a revamp to shed its chaotic vibe, with high-decibel music and cramped seating casting a detrimental pall on the ambiance. Frequent decibels rise to spoil the date-night magic, making it challenging to communicate over candle-lit dinners. An understated buzz helps to a slight degree, but the chaotic ambiance subdues the impact.
Great Drinks
Handcrafted beverages introduced at Shootz; creative, sweet cocktails.
Okay Buzz
Good business, popular, but expectations set high due to social media hype.
Bad For Dates
Excessive noise and crowded space negatively impacted some dating experiences.
Perks: Gratifying noise levels
Perk-wise, Shootz has a mixed bag. Parking elicits headaches, and reserving a table might test your patience, but accommodation for large groups and quick service provide some glimmers of hope. Noise levels manage to strike the right balance, straddling between loud and unobtrusive, but the outdoor seating scenario is less than ideal, with uncomfortable chairs making their presence felt.
Great For Groups
Accommodates large groups with plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.
Okay Service
Service generally good, though can be slow when busy.
Bad Outdoor
Seats are small and uncomfortable but there are other options.
