Insane Happy Hour at eleven44

Hawaii Mom Blog was recently invited to eleven44's Insane Happy Hour.

Insane Happy Hour takes place every Tuesday through Friday from 5pm-8pm.  $3 Three Olives martinis in a variety of flavors ($5 for supersized), and $5 Hangar 1 martinis are offered during the Insane Happy Hour.

Rene and I were fortunate to be treated to some Martinis and Tapas during our first-ever visit to eleven44.

Lychee Martini

Watermelon Martini

Raspberry Martini

Since I was the designated driver, Rene got to indulge in some of the martinis.  She truly liked them all - the Lychee had a nice, light flavor; the Watermelon's flavor was very prominent; the Raspberry was her favorite, with a pleasant balance of the alcohol and raspberry flavor.

eleven44 also offers a variety of cocktails, wine, and beer from their regular menu, but how could you pass up a $3 martini?  What a deal! 

In addition to a wide variety of drinks, eleven44 offers a Tapas menu, from which we got to try a few items.

Vegetable Samosas

BBQ Chicken Lavosh Wheels

Warm Spinach + Artichoke Dip, House-made Lavosh Chips

Both Rene and I declared the Vegetable Samosas the favorite dish of the evening.  The bite-size fried pastries were delicious, and the curry, cucumber, cilantro crème dipping sauce, had a little bit of bite. 

The spinach and artichoke dip with the lavosh chips was also really good.  I personally loved the lavosh chips.  They were crispy and seasoned well and just so addicting!  They were great by themselves, but even better with the spinach and artichoke dip.

The BBQ Chicken Lavosh Pinwheels were yummy, but a bit difficult to eat, and it seemed like the fillings were a little inconsistent (in one pinwheel it was mostly only chicken; in another pinwheel there were more of the other ingredients).

It did take while for the food to come out, but everything is made to order - and so worth the wait!

Rene and I both loved the decor and ambiance.

Great place for a girls night out!

The sophisticated space is perfect for a girls night out!

On the night we were there, PaintNite HNL was holding one of their sold-out events. Definitely something I want to try!

They also have Blowout Thursdays (makeup beauty bar, complimentary Champagne cocktail); Elixir (every 1st Thursday of the month with massages, hairstyling, live entertainment); and many other special events that take place frequently.

Rene and I were impressed with eleven44 - the Insane Happy Hour, the food, the space, the service.  I'd highly recommend eleven44 for pau hana drinks and pupus, a girls night out, and even a place to grab a quick drink and bite before heading to a show at the nearby theatre.
