Ate at location in HLN while waiting for flight I had the Hawaiian dot long my daughter had the bbq ribs. Both were great
Makai Plantation in the Honolulu Airport is a sit down and grab and go spot with a full bar, sushi, poke, sandwiches, burgers, and coffee. It’s handy for a quick bite or a last drink before your flight, with a relaxed vibe and plenty of variety. Just remember, like most airport spots, prices are on the higher side. The staff was friendly, and it’s a solid spot if you want something quick but still good quality. They have sandwiches, sushi, and a little bar, so it’s easy...read full review
The food is just okay. They don't have printed menus, make you scan a QR code. Doubt this is ADA compliant.

Makai Plantation offers a pleasant ambiance and excellent food, making it a nice spot for travelers. The staff is kind and accommodating, providing great service with a smile. Menu highlights include the delicious loco moco and well-cooked burgers, although some reviews mention that the beef patty can be dry and chewy. The BBQ baby rib has also received similar feedback. Despite this, the fries are noted to be really good. The restaurant features a variety of meals, including the teriyaki chicken rice bowl with fresh vegetables like carrots, onions, and green beans, and a furikake crusted ahi salad with spring mix and cherry tomatoes. The ahi tuna is often prepped earlier and simply heated, which can result in a less crispy outside, but the vegetables are fresh. The lilikoi mango cheesecake is highly praised for its tart and sweet flavor, with many enjoying it as a perfect dessert. The restaurant provides a relaxing setting at Honolulu Airport (Gates C), with options to order via a QR code for convenience. Customers appreciate the friendly staff and the ability to relax before a flight, despite some feeling that airport prices can be high, especially for items like beer and ahi sushi poke. The space is clean, and the atmosphere is comfortable, making it a good place to wait for a flight and enjoy a meal.
