Bar Leather Apron Honolulu Reviews from The Last Year
TL;DR: Drinks are mediocre and expensive.
I'd skip it. I have been to quite a few bars on the World's 50 Best list, and I was excited to check out Bar Leather Apron. However, I am rather disappointed by my experience here. A lot of people have complained about it being nearly impossible to make a reservation here. It was fully booked for the days we were in Honolulu, so we decided to try our luck with walk-ins. Their last seating is at 10:30pm. We came as a party of 2 and they told us they weren't sure whether they'd be able to seat us that night, which was fine and we decided to wait anyways. It took about an hour for us to be seated. There was another girl who came by herself and got seated right away. So, you might have a good shot if you are coming alone. We ordered a total of 4 drinks. These drinks, while conceptually interesting, did not deliver on execution. I was drawn to the novel and unique elements that made their drinks theirs, but I could not taste the matcha in "matcha", or the sesame in the espresso martini, or the strawberry and tomato in the el umami. They all just tasted like drinks I could have gotten elsewhere (for cheaper), and it felt as if they wanted to attempt novelty but were scared that they'd turn people away. I think they indexed too much on the drinks being pretty/instagrammable rather than being tasty. I can name far better bars with more interesting drinks and lower price points, easily, off the top of my head. Lastly, I echo someone else's review that they weren't as busy as they seemed to be. It looked like they were holding back tables. If you still want to try your luck with walk-ins, the bartender recommended coming between 7-9pm because they are busiest before and after dinner.
A1 craft cocktails!!!! Has the best mai tai on
A1 craft cocktails!!!! Has the best mai tai on island! Everything on the charcuterie board pairs well together and the bartenders are amazing. The venue is super intimate... kinda reminds me of someone's decked out 'man cave' or a cigar lounge (smoking is not allowed here). I would not recommended for large crowds or anyone hoping for a sports bar type feel. If you're looking for a setting that seems sophisticated paired with amazing craft cocktails ...this is the place!
Outstanding service and knowledgeable staff.
Every drink you order is an experience with detailed information about how and why the Bar picked the ingredients. If you come here, ask questions and enjoy the experience and skills of the bartenders
Not much food choices, but that's NOT what they're known
Not much food choices, but that's NOT what they're known for! Get their AWARD WINNING MAI TAI and you won't be disappointed!!! If you like an experience with your drink this is the place to go! Even if you don't want one of their mixed drinks, there is a plethora of choices if you want a fabulous whisk(e)y or bourbon! Service was above and beyond anything else! Knowledge is everything and these guys have it! You have a question about a drink or whisk(e)y, they can most likely answer it!!! It was a small place, but I loved the dark ambiance. Definitely going again!
New favorite bar in Hawaii! Jason provided a fantastic
New favorite bar in Hawaii! Jason provided a fantastic experience through his knowledge of the various drinks--top tier (top shelf?) bartending. I had the shisho highball and the Imperial, both great but preferred the highball fasho. The place feels low key but high quality, and the food seals the deal. The onion and scallion, plus smoked salmon, were both tasty. Shoots
Pretentious establishment in a weird office setting.
Pretends there is a line when it's actually empty. Drinks are okay but overpriced.
Probably one of the best bars I've ever been to.
Definitely the best bar in the US that I've ever been to. Each drink is handcrafted and absolutely delicious. The owners/bartenders take the time to craft the drinks in front of you and explain why they chose each element of the drink. Great ambiance too. It was such an intimate location. 10/10 would recommend and definitely will be back!
Nestled in the heart of The Topa Financial Center, Bar
Nestled in the heart of The Topa Financial Center, Bar Leather Apron is a Honolulu haven, channeling Tokyo's intimate bars through the expertise of Justin Park and his staff. This six-seater joint is whiskey nirvana, offering finely tuned cocktails that dance on your palate. The bartenders, true storytellers, unravel the whiskey world's mysteries, turning your visit into a liquid journey. But here's the twist - it's not just about the alcohol. At Bar Leather Apron, you can savor the artistry in their mocktails, proving that you don't need booze to relish finely crafted flavors. This downtown gem blends craftsmanship, character, and a slice of Tokyo for an exceptional experience, whether you're a whiskey aficionado or on the mocktail bandwagon. Cheers to an unforgettable time!
Best cocktail bar I've ever been hands down.
The mai tai is a must try! The office building vibe is a little strange but once you're in it's amazing.
One of the best bars in the country.
Excellent service, great attention to detail (glass wear, ice, setting,etc.), knowledgeable staff and excellent drinks.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
|
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
|
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
|
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

Idk if this is related to the unsold listing % rule but I have listed 6 reservations and sold 5 of them and my unsold listing percentage is ~45%. For some reason the unsold listings have not been converted into sold ones. Does this happen only after the payment is released following the booking or is it an issue that needs to be addressed?

Give the best answerHonest review of AT and advice to new joiners
Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
After putting in about 40 hours of work, I’ve made about $750 sale on this platform but gotten paid $0. Take this with a grain of salt.

Hello All,
I don’t know what else to do as I can’t transfer my cleared funds to my bank account. Customer support is close to non existing and not helpful. How can we keep selling here if we can’t withdraw what we have worked for. They say I have to wait 180 days. This is ridiculous!

Am confused about the payout restrictions. Have nearly $1k sitting, wanted to withdraw some and am surprised to see I can only withdraw $50. If i have to do this everyday I’ll end up paying over $90 in fees just for withdrawing via ACH which doesn’t make much sense to me. Have opened a ticket regarding this, but any input or advice would be appreciated

Give the best answerAny seller support?
Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch

Give the best answerRestaurant Bought/Canceled Their Own Reservation
I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.
