Restaurants in Kailua

“We visited Easyque recently and I’ve been craving the food ever since!! Absolutely everything was delicious! 😋 😍”

“awesome food, quick courteous service, friendly, good prices, busy but organized, could see the teamwork and they all danced in unison 5.0 stars”

“We were lucky enough to get one of their limited edition rainbow scones and promised the shop that we would post an insta because it was BEAUTIFUL. But..my son ate it before we got home!!!! 😭

We ordered half a dozen and got a good variety, and EVERY scone was perfect. The flavors came through on every single one and the consistency of the scone was on point. Highly recommend. Having a scone in hand definitely made my Costco trip more enjoyable :).”

“Best drive thru coffee on island! The service was spot on and quick, even though we wanted to stay and chat because the aloha is all around this place! Can’t get enough of their cold brew, it’s got something special in it!”

“Went to the new location in Kaneohe and the brisket and pulled pork was anazing! I'm giving them four stars because the wait was an hour long wait and my elderly parents were tired and famished by the time food was ready.”

“Hot, fast and always ONO!”

“very filling. yum. like the salmon bowl.”

“Steak noodles are amazing. Get with extra steak and don’t forget to add the sauce. Got the chicken thigh plate as well… would recommend the steak noodles over the chicken.”

“Everything is made from scratch. Excellent broths. Nice selection of meats, dumplings & veggies. Vegan option too.”

“I eat here frequently. Best coffee and food is always so delicious. My favorite is the garden omelet and their waffles are the best. Love taking my laptop here to work. Great place!”

“This place has such good ramen I’m making a second review for the second day in a row I visited!! 😂 I wanted my last meal in O’ahu to be something really really good and I just had to come back here so putting this place on BLAST 🗣️🗣️SUCH. GREAT. RAMEN!!!! Also the staff is seriously so kind too : )”

“Fresh seafood prepared how you like it! Delicious and a must if you are in Maui. I had the Ono in white wine,garlic and butter. Served over Cajun rice. The portions are very generous.”

“This restaurant is not a typical Indian place serving regular dosas, it is a modern take on the famous Indian preparation. We tried the dosa with avocado, cheese, tomato and another with potato masala, spinach, cheese and liked the former better. Did not like the filter coffee and chai, wouldn't recommend if you are looking for authentic versions. The vibe and service of this place are a bonus!”

“Been crushing Bob's for years. Can't be beat.”

“I went to Lilikoi Kitchen with a dear friend for brunch over the weekend and was very pleasantly surprised! We were immediately greeted by Laura who told us about the history of the restaurant and the chef’s dream of owning a cafe, and then introduced us to all of the staff there at the time. She listened to my dietary restrictions and helped me select something that I could eat and would love. Everything we ate and drank (PSL was so good, much better than Starbucks) was exceptional. If they started offering mimosas they would be the perfect ladies brunch locale! We will definitely be back.”

“Their onion soup is the only one I'll eat! Their appetizers, sides and main dishes are great! I had one the rigatoni bolognese and my friend had their portabello mushroom sandwich which she really enjoyed too! Don't forget the desserts! Their brown butter cookie is yummy warmed up with ice cream. Try their other baked goods too!”

“My husband and I visited over the weekend and we had such a great experience! The owner, and the other man that waited on us were both soo friendly and personable and we had a great time chatting with them. The wine was absolutely delicious to top it off! We will definitely be back! We took home a bottle of the limited edition root beer wine and can’t wait to crack it open!!”

“The Gnocchi, Caprese, and the Tiramisu!!! Great wine selection too!”

“Great food very friendly and cost wasn’t bad either will be back for sure highly recommend”

“Great ambiance! We had the tomahawk steak, and it was cooked to perfection. There is no sign informing you of the resturant, its in a pub. Parking is horrible as is what's expected in hawaii.”

“Very convenient after a haircut. Tasty, nice people, fast service.”

“Romantic , food was ok ! Butterfish was amazing but the garlic shrimp was only three pieces of shrimp on doughy cheese balls I expected more shrimp or veggies ! Noise in the afternoon not bad ! Presentation good Would have to try more of the menu but will never order the shrimp again”

“First time in Hawaii but Buzzes is a great restaurant that has great food and drinks. The staff is outstanding the are really nice and caring for there customers. I will definitely come back to buzzes. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone that comes and visits that ms never been to Hawaii.”

“I had originally ordered a delivery through DoorDash, but some of my order was missing. I called them and he was so kind and willing to help make sure I was happy.He helped me think of ways to make the problem right, even if it had been on DoorDash, and not on their restaurant. I went to pick up a replacement item and he was very understanding and totally wanting to help make me satisfied. Very friendly staff. And amazing food!”

“We were two and took a salad, tempura, sashimi, a mixed sushi , everything really good, they have exllent wine list too. Place amazing outdoor where we were but saw indoor very nice too. I recommend it!”

“Came by for some roast pork at dinner time. Staff was efficient even on a busy night and people were being helped quickly. Roast pork had good flavor but wasn't quite as crispy as I like, I think they get a pass for being so helpful on such a busy day. Looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu.”

“Really awesome place we came here to eat and had some awesome drinks .we met the executive chef Luis Axalan he was very nice explaining the concept and he was very helpful explaining the food items . We also tried the Chef’s Special salmon crostini was the best we ever had. The pork Bao buns is to die for!!!! 10/10 for all the food . The drinks were very good also . We will definitely come back . Kailua peeps come down and check them out ..”

“This was one of the most perfect restaurants I have ever been to. Absolutely lovely atmosphere, great tunes, spacious seating area but doesn’t feel sparse, very tentative staff who had our food and drinks ordered and served within minutes. The food itself was outstanding; I can honestly say it was some of the best food on our trip! Would highly recommend!”

“Tourist coming into town to explore the island. Locals welcomed us and showed us THE Hawaiian hospitality. We loved it and canceled our uber and dinner plans! If you want to have the authentic small Hawaiian town vibe this is the place to go!”

“A local recommended this spot, and I’m glad they did! I ordered the Garlic Chicken and Katsu. Both were solid choices, but the Garlic Chicken stole the show. Now I see why it’s their best seller: flavorful, crispy, and addictive. The Katsu was also really good, just a bit overshadowed by how great the garlic was. The mac salad was creamy and tasty too. Definitely a spot I’d return to for a casual, satisfying lunch.”

“Our son took us there when we were visiting. Best coffee I have ever had. Never bitter”

“Pretty much perfect: vegetarian options (not much vegan), really nice people, and super comfy seating (we chose the couch). I got the Life Is Good bagel with hummus and egg. All came on reusable/ceramic plates. Love this place.”

“Best fresh chicken sandwich I’ve ever had! Every time I’m on Oahu I make time to get a bite to eat here!!”

“Ummm best pancakes ever! Great service also. Thanks 😊”

“The Food Company is amazing in that it offers an expansive menu, PLUS the best service and kindness in working with special current food restrictions. The food for our recent party with guests from our islands, plus mainland cities and Australia, called for varied tastes. The Food Company offered perfect selections, getting raves!! Everything was delicious. Fair prices and excellent value!!”

“Aloha. Stopped by & had some awesome java & water(for our Pittie girl🐾) & sat outside talkin story & peeps watchin🤙🤙🤙🤙”

“Love this place. There’s parking, seating, awesome açaí bowl/coffeees, and friendly staff! What more can you ask for? 😍 also it’s next door to bob’s pizzas (giant slices!!!)”

“Food was Very Good. Price was Reasonable. Muchas Gracias from Us.”

“It tasted different from FLORIDA.but other wise it okay”

“Love this place! Staff are friendly the place is neat and clean and the Acai bowls and smoothies are delicious! The prices are very reasonable, too! A negative is not just having to pay for parking, but actually finding a spot in that area.....it is def worth the time and money!!! My new favorite place in Kailua.”

“awesome food especially mahi burger, better than the one at the restaurants. truffle fried were overcooked.”

“I love love love this place, went yesterday for the first time, I came in with the big wagon n my puo Potato inside. You have so many choices, when he gets bigger, I will def have to come back and buy him a trucker hat, lol. You will be my go-to for his 1st bday cake in Novembrler. This place also has a painting center and a ball pit for the pups.”

“Great food. Cool atmosphere. Awesome shakes.”

“I absolutely loved the fresh food and the staff was awesome Friendly and made you feel welcome Will definitely return to this establishment”

“The food portions are amazing and the food is excellent This is a family owned restaurant and they are such wonderful people Recommend this place to everyone”

“Most intimate delish, fresh, unique dining experience ! Worth the time and money. Come from a massive culinary town. This place is way better than anything I could ever ask for. ❣️❣️❣️”

“Little hole in the wall by the beach. We shared a combo chicken katsu and BBQ chicken plate. It came with rice and macaroni salad. Everything was delicious!!! Service was nice. Sat outside. Inside small area. Would definitely check this place out.”

“The phos were decent and the meat quality was good. The stew beef rice dish wasn’t the best I’ve had, but it wasn’t that bad. The service was friendly and fast.”

“First time here and I love the vegetable bar. Spot on kimchee, I wish i could take a whole jar home. Got the Mahi Katsu and the Meat Jun. For the price and the AYCE Vegies I will definitely be coming back.”

“This is a solid takeout spot with good poke. There are spots to sit and eat outside. Make sure you ask about their ingredients. I discovered peanuts in their Thai basil poke after I started eating it and sharing with my son who has a peanut allergy. We had to rush to get some allergy meds afterwards so be careful.”

“Had a couple beers. They were very good.”

“This place is a dive. However, this place is quite delicious, I had the BBQ mix, and it was very good. The variety of meat was very delicious. The only complaint I have is that the place needs to be a little cleaner to be a 5 star.”

“Aloha: this is a great , clean and organized Panda location. Staff is great with interactions as well. Bring a sweater the AC just got changed out so a bit on cold side in the evening but keeping the standards up.”

“I order through the app to pickup at the restaurant near my home. The app is super easy and my food is always packaged and ready to go when I get there. The restaurant is super-clean, there’s lots of parking, it’s a great place for in-and-out great food. Definitely will go back 👍🏼”

“Leilani & Will of Leilani’s Island Tacos catered my daughter’s wedding last evening. Our guests raved about the food and excellent service! We are from out of town and Leilani was so great to work with, arranging everything by phone & email. I highly recommend them! Mahalo Leilani & Will!!”

“Great small sushi shop. No public bathroom go use Safeway's. 4 small tables.

Great $15 roll sushi and small bento boxes

Parking: Safeway parking easiest in and out”

“The food here is delicious. I love the lunch or dinner plates which gives me a variety but I’ve also had their wor gau gee min and the pork and abalone soup. All were very good. The people here are very nice and once when I can in for min the cook kept refilling my bowl with broth. It was so yummy!!”

“Wonderful experience, Korean Steak entree was amazing and Fresh Fish entree with macadamia nut pesto was delicious. Excellent service and vibe. Highly recommend.”

“I literally had the best tacos ever. Ordered 2 birria tacos and they were amazing. It’s true it’s kind of expensive 6.5$ for a taco but don’t buy if you can’t afford. Definitely a treat. They guys were nice too”

“I never leave reviews for anything but after experiencing all of the aloha and tasty goodies from Kailua Beach’s Kalapawai Market for the past 6 weeks, I had no choice but to chime in. My husband and I loved our weekly trips for coffee and fresh bakery items, but even more so we appreciated how much community we found in this adorable little beach market. Everyone was so kind and attentive every time we visited. We specifically had the great privilege of getting to know and love Brayden, Lindsey, and Stephanie during our visits. They were all so so incredibly kind, attentive, and always slayed my iced lattes. If you are in Kailua and craving some amazing fish tacos, a little sweet treat, or a life changing caffeine boost, don’t forget to add this stop to your list. You won’t regret it.”

“아사히볼 맛있어요 !!”

“The Elderberry syrup is the absolute best I’ve had and the cocoa immunity elixir was magic mood boosting mylk that I’m still thinking about weeks after drinking it.”

“Boba shop with a multitude of choices, a claw machine, and merch in the back that adds to the fun of being here.The staff is helpful and friendly and the Bobas we got, Mango Pomelos Sago and Midnight Tea, were delicious. I liked the brulee cheese foam on the Midnight Tea.Definitely coming back here.”

“Lovely little place. Delicious food and smoothies. Yummy dessert options too. They do charge you extra surcharge to sit with a group more than 5 (even though there’s no table service) which seems a bit dodgy!”

“Good food! Great staff. I nice family diner. Very hometown classic feel to the place. LOCO MOCO AND THE FRIED RICE! DA BOMB!!🙂🤙🏿🏝💯💯”

“breakfast of Champs! go get some!”

“This is hands down my favorite burrito ever! The beef is especially amazing—so flavorful and juicy. The portion is generous, but it doesn’t feel heavy. Super friendly staff and great vibes. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Enjoyed the pastries we bought. My wife loved the spinach bread. I love supporting locals and will continue to come here when I'm in Kailua. I just wished they didn't sell out so early.I had the chocolate donut which had the perfect chewy consistency and the chocolate was nice and rich. I'd definitely eat a few of those the next time.Support local and swing by this small bakery that's been around since the 90s.”

“Great place for cheers and fun! Very much a family!”

“One of the best gluten free sandwiches I ever had !!! Went back here TWICE during my one week trip to Oahu - the sandwich is so refreshing and to die for!! Amazing to take with you to the beach as well 💗💗🍞🥙🥪”

“I don’t normally write reviews but the food here was really good. I’ve eaten a lot of Vietnamese in my life and I will say this is some of the best I’ve eaten. A little pricey for someone that has travelled the world but for Hawaii I guess it’s ok. These are new owners so give them a chance.”

“Ono poi. Looking for Kulolo.”

“Love this place. The ladies in the morning are awesome. They know a lot of customers by name and their drinks. The vibes are very inviting and happy no matter how busy they are. I love the turkey pesto sandwich there. They also can make a mean latte. ❤️??”

“We had the best pizza from Kailua Dominos last night! The management was so kind too & worked had to spread Aloha when we had to wait some extra time for our carryout pizza! Sometimes it's not this good, but last night, it was great & management is Always the best! Mahalo!!”
