Food Stands in Honolulu, HI

“So fortunate to have family in Hawaii, and super fortunate to be able to visit Oahu once in a while to eat food that you just can't find anywhere else like this amazing vegan hot dog cart! Onolicious! Once upon a time, I used to feel sad that I couldn't find vegan local kine eats, but the future has arrived. Support local businesses and seek out this place.“

“I tried their sampler. From left to right, i got:

- Holy Krab
- Tacobella
- BAE
- In & Out
- Let’s Avocuddle

The rolls were the perfect balance of a crunchy shell on the outside with softer wrapper layers on the inside. The rolls were not too oily either.

The Holy Krab was amazing. It was like a creamy crab croquette in a roll. The Let’s Avocuddle was also a stand out. I like my meat, but this vegetarian option was surprisingly good.

There was also a cheese(?) sauce, sweet chili sauce, and salsa. The cheese sauce is literal crack“

“Food was excellent. I’d recommend getting there as soon as it opens to avoid lunch rush since it’s the only place in the area. We walked a little past it for a picnic in the grass. We paid about $60 for 8 people to eat, with 6 drinks as well. Service was quick and friendly as well as patience since we took a while to decide what we wanted and order. Chicken and gravy was delicious and the fried rice had great flavoring. Spaghetti plate was large enough for multiple meals.“

“The Zoo itself is a great way to enjoy seeing all the animals, beautiful habitats, creative art and fun facts/history around the zoo! Jess and her co-worker in the Gift Shop were friendly, fun and very helpful! 5/12/25 Each trip to Oahu, there is always a visit to the zoo!“

“This place is delicious and the staff is extremely friendly. The lemon tea is so good you will want more and the food tastes really fresh. The kalbi I had never had before, but I really enjoyed it.
We shared 2 plates with our 1 and 2 year old and they couldn't get enough. We were surprised how much they ate of it!
So it's family friendly for sure!“

“Best veggie dog I’ve had hands down. It’s also inexpensive for those who are wondering.“

“Very good food! Drove back home 15 minutes and it was still hot 👏🏼 Kinda tricky for first timers to find the pick up spot, but will definitely be back for the taste! Loved that they toasted the wrap’s bread, it was nice and crispy instead of mushy like it usually is, when you get a wrap somewhere else! 5 ⭐️🌈“

“Our first authentic shave ice and it blew away our expectations! Delicious, fresh, and the best sweet treat!“

“hotdogs are fiyah! i got the jumbo beef and got it johns way which is exactly how I love to make my own. They use a great quality hot dog too.“

“Fresh coconut juice, available with pulp option. Also fresh sugarcane juice with local lime. Incredibly tasty and refreshing! Buy both drinks and share amongst family members if you don’t want too much sugar. Convenient Waikiki Beach location! One of the few places in Honolulu where you can get these drinks aside from the farmers market. Highly recommended!“

“Best place ever. So delicious icecream:)“

“Swung in just ten minutes or so before closing and snagged a 9 buck bento. The staff are so friendly and it truly is a little hole in the wall quick takeout spot. I tried the shrimp Tempura bento which was the perfect size for me and I loved the variety of vegetables and sides! Their sweet potato mochi is also phenomenal even at end-of-day. Looking forward to trying other daily bentos! :)“

“Amazing food. The quality and consistency of the food is top tier every time I come. Friendly service and great prices. A staple of my visits every time im in waikiki.

All vegetarian food but you will never realize without being told.“

“Stumbled on this place right off base around lunch time. This “shack” is no fast food joint. Everything is made to order, so it takes about 10 mins to get your food after ordering. But the wait is well worth it!

We ordered the pangang curry and Thai boat noodles. Both were flavorful and fresh! For $12-$13 per meal, this was a large helping. I will say, the Thai boat noodles did have some chunks of lemongrass, cloves, and other sneaky flavor bombs that can get intense if you aren’t careful to pick them out.

I will come back again for sure!“

“Although they did seem mostly sold out by 10am, I was quite happy with what I got.
I will admit I didn't expect to find an entire strawberry inside the strawberry one 😂
Needless to say that it ended up being breakfast which I wasn't unhappy about!“

“Was greeted by a kind gentleman behind the counter. He saw us looking and opened up the steam basket to show us more options but wasn't pushing us to by his food. I was already full but decided to get the fried pork dumplings. I'm so glad I did. Omg it was fresh, hot, crispy and the filling tasted just right. This place costs a lot less than where I'm from for dim sum. If I could eat more, I would've ordered more.“

“I wonder why they serve human food but have the name “fish food”? hm, the world may never know. anywho, i had the spicy ahi bowl (?) that came with rice, some fish, and 2 pieces of gyoza with sauce. the fish was good and had the spiciness of a 3.5 on the caucasian scale of spicy; has a little kick but won’t make you cry out for jésus or anything. the convenience of having poke on base was amazing but the portion size was not! $15 or so for a small bento sized meal is a little pricey as poke bowls at foodland are about $5 cheaper and they give you more fish and rice as well.For the size of fish food hawaiis spicy ahi, i have attached a pic to show the size with an ice breakers ice cube gum for a scale (didn’t have banana for scale)“

“a must visit in Oahu...Sammy has the Best Grinds/ and Now has the Best Cocktails Poolside @ the Bamboo Hotel on Kuhio .Donnie Roxx serves up your Fave Drinks..great Tiki bar experience!“

“Best Bagels on Oahu, without any close competition. I grew up in NJ where bagels are a religion, and had sort of given up on the idea of having a good bagel since I've lived in Honolulu. But I went to Tali's for the first time today and Holy S--t! The bagels are fresh, with a perfect bite and chew. The inside is light and full of real bagel flavor. The outside has that medium level of resistance that makes biting into a bagel so rewarding. The cream cheese schmears are delicious and spreadable. I also hit the OG lox sandwich that was so good, I think I cried a little. On top of al of that, the 2 people working there were so nice and helpful! Highly recommend!!!!!“

“Absolutely Delicious and authentic. They grill the meat in front of you. Fast, good price and delicious!“

“This place is a must when going to Ala Moana Center and you are craving grab and go Korean food. For such a small food concession they do offer a lot of variety. It is perfectly laid out to easily spot what you want, order or grab, then pay without sending much time with the whole process. They got such a large assortment of freshly made Korean classics and more. There are little bites such as musubi or kimbap rolls and then there are little KFC - Korean Fried Chicken and even mini salads that you can just pick up on the fly. Need something more heavy, they offer ready made full size Korean bento assortments as well as build your own from the ready made food buffet that they dish out for you based on your picking. The place is very clean, everything freshly prepared and neatly packaged. Service is attentive and move quickly to get you on your way so don't waist your lunch hour standing in line waiting for your food. Check them out, I'm sure you'll find something that you like.“
