24 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Hilo

“First time there. Got the Ahi Katsu special. Pretty good though the fish was just a little on the dry side. I wish the fish was flash fried and on the rarer side. Portion size was good, a big ahi steak. Sauce was delicious and helped. Batter was nice and crispy. I will go back and try some of their daily menu dishes.“

“10/10 I highly recommend a quick crunchy, savory and sweet bite at Mr Cows! What a treat after a long shopping day or even a mid day pick me up. The corndog I got with its sweet potato crust, and half mozz half hot dog center was everything I wanted just now. So crispy-crunchy, mildly sweet, oozey cheese, and juicy dog! Not gonna lie I expected it to be smaller but for what you pay I definitely feel the taste and quality meets those expectations. Man I cant wait to be back and try more of their awesom corn dogs...thanks Mr Cow! 😋

Ps: no pic because I was too eager to eat it all lol“

“Friday afternoon , chocolate shake and cheese burger - great meal - lost perscription eye glasses at your picnic table at 3;30 PM . if found call at 808-885-7508 . thanks in advance Mike H.“

“Pricy American Mexican food. Slow drive thru at 4:00 p.m.
Good black bean grilled burrito. Nacho chips with guacamole - small. Bean burritos, just o.k., a lot smaller than in the past. Soft tacos definitely smaller than in.past days.

Vegetarian options: Grilled black bean burrito is really good.“

“To be candid, I'd pretty much stopped going to McDonald's because the food wasn't that great. This time was very different. I arrived to this location with no trash to be found in the parking lot. I was greeted at the door with a smile and asked if I needed any help. I ordered via the kiosk, but couldn't recall how to use my code and someone jumped right in to help. The food was ready in about 3 minutes and the order was correct even with my special requests. The dining room was very clean and the temporary out of service signs were gone from the soda fountain. I watched as staff looked under tables and swept the crumbs from prior guests as they left. No one said anything to them, they just did it. I must say, I am impressed. I'm sure I'll be more willing to take the kids the next time they ask.

Kudos to the manager and staff.“

“Love it Cafe 100 having my usual Loco Moco sloppy & Sunnyside eggs and even if didn’t have Mac salad this morning, I will always return especially for the Chicken Hekka and daily specials #hukaonorono“

“Love everything ❤ Beef patties handmade every a.m. Loco moko & SWISS ? burger 'ono, biggest laulau w/ choke lu'au“

“pineapple twist....and reasonably priced“

“Breakfast/lunch spot. Kawamoto was closed so we found this place nearby. I'm glad that we discovered this place as well. Since it was our first time, I asked the server to pick whatever for us and she took her time and listed each item and explained what it was. We went later in the day so it wasn't as fresh but still very delicious.“

“The best pizza I have every order from the Hut. Kinoole location you rock!!! Glad I chose to travel the extra few miles. Almost turned down pizza because the only time I ordered from the Hilo location (since their move) I not only got bad customer service but the pizza was nasty. The pizza tastied like garbage with a doughy texture like wet dog. As long as the Kinoole location is around I will remain a customer.“

“We go there for our ICE CREAM CRAVES❣️😜We have ice cream dates every Friday or as much Needed like tonite👍🏼Also after school with the gkids for the chicken snack pack“

“Taco Bell Hilo is the best one on the island. For veg options, no meat/cheese/sour cream… you can order “fresco” style & they substitute pico de gallo.

Thank you for being open & having great customer service. (Unlike kona side)“

“I really like this restaurant! You can choose the plate size and see all the options. If you’re not sure, ask to taste . We usually get a bigger plate to share for $14 – such a good deal. The orange chicken and Beijing beef are a must. It’s a fast option, and they have parking too.“

“I have always wanted to try Zippy’s after finding out it is Jason Momoa’s favorite restaurant in Hawaii. And just as he said, it truly is the ultimate comfort food. I accidentally ordered from their takeaway counter instead of the sit-down restaurant since it was my first time there, and I got too excited seeing all the food that I did not even notice the sign.

I ordered the Chicken Trio Platter, which comes with white rice, macaroni salad, Korean fried chicken, chicken katsu with sauce, and their original fried chicken. The food was fresh, hot, and incredibly tasty. Everything was perfectly juicy and crispy, and I finished it all even though the portion was quite large. I was so happy and full by the end of the meal, and I completely understand the hype around Zippy’s. It is one of the best fried chicken fast foods I have ever had.

I also took away their ensaimada, which was super fluffy, soft, buttery, and not overly sweet. It was absolute heaven. The prices are reasonable too, and I cannot wait to come back.“

“Good Local Food. Hot, Reasonably priced. Good Aloha Spirit! My Go ,To For An affordable meal! Great Floats. Loco Moco.“

“Good pizza … for traveller like us, just arrived in Hilo by fly, we want eat something in hotel because we were tired. Good pizza, good sauce one pizza without cheese and both were overall good. The order by website was very easy and the the delivery girl was kind. The delivery was perfect in time as indicated in the delivery app.“

“Panda Express in Hawaii is absolutely amazing! The food is incredibly delicious — easily the best Chinese fast food you’ll find on the islands. The service is impressively fast, making it perfect for a quick meal without compromising on taste.

The prices are great value for money, not expensive at all, especially considering the generous portions they serve. The restaurant also has proper seating, so you can comfortably dine in. Car parking is available, which makes the visit even more convenient.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming, and takeaway options are also available for those on the go. Overall, Panda Express Hawaii delivers top-quality food, convenience, and great service.

Highly recommend!❤️“

“honestly this McDonald's should be shut down by Ronald McDonald himself! McDonald's is supposed to be a charitable organization but yet this specific location is anything but charitable or compassionate or even employed by decent people. previously I have been rudely forced to unplug my phone from the outlet at this location when I was trying to load my McDonald's app in order to earn my points or even redeem my rewards. secondly there is no other way to log into my McDonald's account considering I was not allowed to charge my phone to login to my McDonald's account. now just to top it all off as I was walking by I noticed the drive-thru was blocked off and people were forced to reverse out of the drive-thru so I simply asked the employee outside what was going on and if everything was okay I was ignored but yet this specific employee could talk to everyone but me and I honestly believe it was because I am a foreigner to Hawaii because this specific employee answered everyone else who just happened to be a local or of the same ethnicity as them. the majority actually I can confidently say all of the employees are of Filipino ethnicity and I believe they would not hire anyone else of a different ethnicity. do not go to this McDonald's as I can confidently say they are prejudice and racist if you are not Filipino!“

“Yummmm! I ordered the Pepoer jack cheese. It was coated with a corn dog batter and its ooey gooey goodness was fried to perfection! I also got the strawberry lemonade and it was delicious as well!

The staff was super accommodating and very welcoming. I will definitely be back.“
