50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Honolulu

“Quite possible the best piece of fish I've ever eaten. I ordered the Miso Butterfish Plate (Black Cod) and literally every bite was heaven. The skin of the fish was cooked so perfectly and melted in your mouth with a perfect sauce to accompany it. The furikake rice was excellent and was all the better as it soaked up the extra sauce from fish as well. Outstanding.“

“Fresh made to order Masubi“

“Texas toast tastes like a hot dog bun that hasn’t been cut in half- 1/10 French fries are soggy and way too salty- 2/10 Chicken is juicy and tender with a decent amount of crisp. If you’ve never had the back room chicken tenders (the puritan) they’re pretty good. If you have, they’re mid- 6.5/10 The sauce although has a decent flavor it has a weird spicy tang that goes away almost immediately- 6/10 Overall value I’ll give a strong 7. 13 bucks with a drink from a “fast food” joint is pretty cheap although I could eat 3 of these combos“

“Wonderful and inviting hole in the wall! Service is fast and the food is even better! You can sit or just as easily take it to go. The Jun is to die for. If you’re craving some homestyle deliciousness Korean food you absolutely must come here ❣️“

“I would eat here everyday if it were practical. The best spot on the island. Quality is top notch, that of a five star diner. Portions are always large and everything made fresh. Family run business, always kind and always gracious. Love this place. You can’t go wrong.“

“Another Hidden Gem here in Kalihi at K&M Drive Inn in Kalihi next to Alicia’s Market.

They just recently opened, but they are slowly gaining many followers. The Oxtail Soup is loaded with 4 nice-sized Oxtails and for the $15.95 price you can’t go wrong. Love the strong presence of Star Anise and love the Veggies and Mushrooms throughout the Soup. It comes with freshly grated ginger as well.

The Fried Chicken Plate which came with 7 pieces of Chicken Wings with Rice and Mac Salad for $10.95. It was good at a reasonable price.

They do Take Out or Dine in. Love the vibe here and the service was very pleasant.

The only negative on this place is not the place itself but the limited parking situation.

Give this hidden gem a try.
Support Local Businesses.“

“The quality is the best, one of the best milkshakes I tried ever my wife said. It's not the perfect service because you have to wait more than usual even when it is almost empty... But people were just kind enough. The perfect plan is just enjoy your milkshake sitting on the tables outside and admiring the beautiful views and architecture alongside the street.“

“食べるスペースが無くなった“

“Delicious!!! This was a life saver before my families evening flight. Just the right amount of food and it stayed nice and warm while on the plane. Great dinner and I will be back!“

“Love Zippy’s every time I visit I always stop at Zippy’s before I head anywhere else and I always order Korean chicken with extra Mac my favorite.“

“It's cheap anyway!
I'm happy to be able to eat pizza,
It's convenient because you can come from the beach in your swimsuit and eat.
Anyone can pass from the beach, even if they are not military personnel.
You can use the store.“

“Chicken is very crispy ,light, not too oily and sauce is not strong special taste. So I think this store chicken is veey healthy soul food!“

“A burger from the heart . Blue cheese and the Teriyaki burger were awesome… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My first Raising Cane’s experience was when I was with Kuuipo. She was so excited to let me know that there were chicken tenders! Last time, it was their way of saying hello and welcoming me. I thought the food was really tasty at first because she validated the touch from when I looked. Sounds like a great food to order for take out. I’m taking my time thanking her all the way through.“

“Some people rate this restaurant like it's Roys. Me and my Mom love this place and love the customer service. 💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙“

“the food and customer service was amazing“

“Just Great Chicken and the sauce ain’t bad either. GEAUX GET CHA SOME“

“Fastest drive thru service ever! I love how the workers use your name, have great eye contact, and have professional and friendly demeanors. Food was excellent as always. Deffs my go to for an elevated drive thru option. Chick fil AAAAAA!!!“

“It’s all about the flavor 😋😋😋🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🎯💯‼️“

“After seeing other reviews we checked it out. They had the vegan breakfast burrito (sold all day) and they had some fruit bowls but when I asked about the chickpea sandwich and the other items I’d seen in pictures they said they’d changed their menu. But great breakfast burrito.“

“Great food and a big variety“

“It was great customer service and the food was delicious!!“

“These burgers were pretty tasty. I actually ended up just getting the Keiki meal with the cheeseburger, which was still pretty flavorful. My husband ordered the Hawaiian Kai, which he liked a lot. The employees were helpful and kind. It took about 10 minutes to get our food which was expected given the type of food they were preparing. We were there around lunch time so the dining room was a little busy, but we were still able to find a table to sit at. The drinks are self-serve with refills as long as you are dining in. There is no public bathroom.“

“Something about these piroshki is so good. I really enjoy the beef and mushroom and the chicken with mushroom.

Prices are still very reasonable as well.

Tip- Always call before you head down. I've dropped by a few times when they were supposed to be open per their sign but they were closed.“

“Need to sell maybe as a side, cranberry sauce--jellied or the berry version.“

“It’s a hole in the wall, total hidden gem. Food was fresh and hot, service was quick and friendly and wasn’t too expensive either. I got the garlic shrimp, it’s got a nice spice and they’re cleaned well so you can eat without peeling and not worry about cleaning the back.
I’ll be returning frequently I think.“

“I'm from Philly. A hoagie shop should smell like a hoagie shop. Jersey Mike's is the real deal. Used to go to 1in Columbus Ohio. Looking forward to the 1 opening on S. King St. in Honolulu.“

“The Food says it all. You gotta get the B&B plate...YUMMY!👅“

“They’re open until 01:30 AM now and thank goodness, because we skipped dinner to go fishing. Their fried chicken is crispy, succulent, and well-seasoned with a nice kick to it. If you’re a fan of the spicy chicken at Jollibee, this is the leveled-up sister. And their mala tang soup…drool worthy. I love spicy soup but they were sold out of spicy beef, so they offered to make their original beef spicy for me. You can adjust the spice level and I asked for mine to be “spicy spicy”, and they didn’t disappoint! There was a nice dose of chili oil and garlicky mala heat, but not so much that it drowned out the flavors. The broth itself has a rich, nutty flavor, reminding me of a wilder version of tan tan ramen. They use saimin noodles and top it with fish balls, meat balls, thinly sliced meat, sliced potatoes, and quail eggs. I didn’t get any pictures this time because I couldn’t resist inhaling my meal, but I’ll be back for sure!“

“This is one of my lunch spot when I worked in the university. Wednesdays they had kare kare and it was always so comforting. and bilobilo, when i need some warm sweets during rainy day it's just the best. also i do not like bitter melon but their pinakbet i would eat.
During lunch hour there's a long line in the restaurant so it may feel weird to dine in. but I always grab it to go.
this is one of the spot that I miss the most after i moved away.“

“I dream of their garlic chicken. It’s my first and last stop when I visit. I just can’t figure out how they make it!“

“Delicious!!! This was a life saver before my families evening flight. Just the right amount of food and it stayed nice and warm while on the plane. Great dinner and I will be back!“

“I think they work great as a team and their people persons“

“Our group had a craving for pizza and we stumbled on Lewers. The person working the storefront accommodated our half/half all meat/pepperoni pizza and it was ready in about 25-30 minutes. The crust was floppy but the cheese and toppings were flavorful and not too greasy/oily. It was a pleasant find.“

“Good neighborhood spot to get some Hawaiian classics on the fly. We tried the spam and eggs and the loco love. Both were delicious and got the spot!

The interior of this location was a little dated and rundown but the food was good. The service was confusing because there was no clear spot where to order and they were taking orders from people behind us in line.

We ate on the fast food side before realizing there was a seated dining area in the back. Service may be better on that side.“

“Flying in from San Francisco, one of my 1st stops us always Zippy’s Casual friendly atmosphere. Delicious food. Love Portuguese soup and clam chowder. The corn bread fried and buttery. For a delicious taste of Honolulu, run to Zippy’s. I do!“

“I Love 💙 Jack in the box.“

“Located in the Makai Food Court. Fast service and accurate order. We had the Angus Deluxe Burger + Fries w/ Pineapple Quencher & 3Pc Chicken Tenders + Mashed Potatoes + Ube Pie. It was the first time I ordered fries, but next time I'm ordering mashed potatoes! The Angus burger deluxe with the lettuce and tomato was so worth it!“

“The rice balls and pork soup are delicious. The spam rice ball with perilla leaves was surprisingly delicious. Iyasu Yume's rice balls are moist and wrapped in seaweed, while the Korean restaurant next door has crispy rice balls wrapped in nori.“

“Located within the Maunakea food court. The food court, itself, is rather sad and decrepit looking.

I ordered a Lao papaya salad and Lao sausage with the very nice owner. She asked me for my spice level and I replied “the authentic way you eat it.” The salad itself was definitely spicy and I enjoyed every bite. Only criticism would be I wished the papaya was crunchier. I also like peanuts in my papaya salad but there were none in this version, I don’t know if the Lao version contains peanuts. The sausage was meaty and tasty.

I’d return to try their other authentic Lao dishes.“

“Filipino food at its finest in the heart of downtown Honolulu. Clean facility and friendly service. Don't be late 'cause by 5pm, they already have few recipes to offer. So whatever they have left is all you get. If you're craving for dessert, they also have the famous halo-halo. If you're not watching your diet, you can never go wrong for this place's delicious food. Try it, to believe it.“

“Server was great working alone… wish they would hires more help, I saw couple of families in lined and left when service was slow. My wife and I visiting the island and this place was our hang out, busy then and still popular with the locals.“

“The food was good and it was quick! Minimal wait time and good portions.“

“Grateful for Ryan best drive through cashier there was definitely lots of employees here working hard with a great attitude Ryan was working drive-thru and definitely giving 100% Taco Bell always tastes the same but the employees make the difference Mahalo I am never leaving Paradise so many loving people on the island“

“I really like the Chow fun they make, but sometimes I get the noodles instead. I come for the Kung Pao Chicken because it's honestly the best one I've tasted.

Vegetarian options: Mixed Stir Fried Greens, Eggplant Tofu, Fried Rice“

“Neat McDonald's! Unique decor. Good food in McDonald's fashion.“

“My kids and I really love the french fries...😋😋😋 freshly cooked and available anytime👍👍👍👍“

“Good $$ and the burger was good“
