• While there are many bars and night clubs in the Oahu area that are at street level or higher, there are also several popular clubs that are located underground in the basement levels of areas such as downtown and Chinatown. These clubs offer a range of amenities, such as dance floors, full bars, and even gourmet food. It can take an extra few minutes to find these places because of their locations, so be sure to get directions before heading out.
  
  

Bar 35

• This basement level club sits in downtown Chinatown and offers one of the widest selections of beers (over 150) in Hawaii. Live DJs play a variety of music most nights of the week, and patrons can sit indoors or on the outdoor patio. Gourmet pizzas are made to order by Valentini's Fusion, who hand-makes such pizza pies as the Smokey Heaven with smoked salmon, red onions, capers, and cream cheese. Bar 35 also hosts regular events such as Wii tournaments, 80s music nights and dance events.

Mai Tai Bar

• This club offers live music almost every night, and some nights will even play host to two different bands. They also offer a "late night" happy hour from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. for those who are looking for deals on drinks but can't go out right after work. They have a large mai tai menu as well as a full bar with both mixed drinks and beers. The Mai Tai Bar chefs prepare sandwiches, flatbread pizzas, and appetizer plates as ordered, some of which are included in the happy hour specials.
