10 Best Chicken Restaurants in Honolulu

“First time experiencing Jollibee. Food was good, wish I could have gotten more of a sampler of many things on the menu since I dont know when I will ever be around another Jollibee. My only thing is I was on a time crunch and the wait was significant. This seems normal because they had a question lines prepared just for people to wait for their food. Could be because of the quantity they are doing, but it was still a personal long wait time for me.
Would go again and tried a fried pie! You should too.“

“Absolutely phenomenal! I came through drive-through to pick up a mobile order only to find that they didn’t have any record of it in the system. However, the staff quickly assessed the problem which was that I had placed the order for the next day. Rather than turning me away, or asking me to replace the order, the manager quickly and expertly triaged with the Staff, and I received my food within minutes. The manager even credited my online order payment to the meal I received so that I wouldn’t have to go online to cancel and refund the mobile order. They fixed my mistake with impeccable professionalism and courtesy. The team at the Kaneohe branch demonstrates rarely-seen levels of customer service. Thank you!“

“Overload Burger lives up to its name — a delicious, generously loaded burger that hits the spot. Juicy patty, great toppings, and just the right amount of messy. Perfect for when you're craving something hearty and satisfying. Definitely recommend!“

“Today 4/23/2026 we ordered food to go (Kalihi location) via the APP. Fried chicken Sides: mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and biscuits. The FC was very good, crispy, tender/juicy and seasoned just right. We stopped going to KFC years ago because of poor quality. They don’t come close to JOLLIBEE! My order was ready pretty quickly around 1245p. Kudos to the staff who prepared our food. When I got home, the chicken was still very warm too.“

“This place has the best chicken wings I’ve ever had! The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. My husband and I both really enjoyed the wings, and I also had the chicken sandwich it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend Chicken University to anyone visiting the area. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Used the drive through. The service was quick, friendly and efficient even with a decent line of cars. The only downside to this Chick-fil-A is their minimal space causing the drive thru line to feed into the road. I wouldn't hold that against the staff here. Also, on the plus side if the line stays you can get back on the road fairly easy on the other side.“

“Slightly costly, but overall good flavor and a decent amount of food.

I did takeout. Ordered the boneless chicken plate, it was still crispy when I ate it later. Instead of Mac salad, it came with carrots, pickled daikon, ranch dressing over shredded cabbage and rice. I got the soy garlic sauce. I liked that they kept the sauce in a container separate so it doesn't make the chicken soggy.

No issues with service.

Atmosphere is pretty much the shared food hall, not too noise with good number of seats around the floor.“

“chicken sandwich was terrific“

“Excellent service. Chicken sandwich was great. Didn't like the fries that much. Dining was being renovated, so not much seating area. Music too loud. Overall good experience.“
