Restaurants in Kailua

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

“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.”

“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.”

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

“A must stop by. Excellent wine tasting. Friendly staff. We were greeted as soon as we arrived. Michael was outstanding. Michael would come by and let us know what we were going to taste. Very knowledgeable about the products. has outstanding customer service. Truly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend it!!!”

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

“Snapper was hard to eat. Lobster Bucatini was too salty and hated the gummy claw of the lobster. If I knew it was the claw, I would not have ordered it. Steak Diane and Ribeye & Lobster were great! Truffle fries were amazing! Waiter was nice but hard to understand. Finally, the creme brulle was the absolute best I've ever eaten. It's my go to dessert and this was handsdown the best!!!”

“9/7/24 - This place is absolutely beautiful and awesome. The owner and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. They all have great pride in their work and in the business. I have seen so many businesses in this day and age where the staff do not seem to care about anything but that is not the case here. This is one of those small businesses that help make a difference. I always feel great walking out of here. Our dogs really love it as well. They start getting excited when we are about a block away because they know where we are going. I simply cannot say enough about what the owner has built here. Great job!”

“We have been coming to Enchanted Lake Kim Chee Restaurant for the past 13 years, and it has become such a special place for our family. The owners are incredibly warm and friendly—they’ve watched our kids grow up over the years, and every visit feels like coming home.

Their vegetable bar is amazing, offering everything you could want, plus fun extras like pineapple and Jell-O, which the kids always look forward to. The seaweed soup is wonderfully comforting, and I can never resist their vegetarian bibimbap. It’s always beautifully presented, and every time I tell myself I’ll take a picture… but I end up diving in too quickly!

The kids always order the combination plate with chicken katsu, barbecue chicken, and fried mandu—it’s their go-to meal. The atmosphere is welcoming and fun, with video footage of the kitchen playing (it’s great to see them in action!), a fish tank that keeps the little ones entertained, and a playlist we absolutely love. The music always adds to the experience and makes our meal even more enjoyable.

After all these years, this restaurant continues to be one of our favorite places to eat. We always leave happy and full, and we’re so grateful to have a spot like this in our community!”

“When I was inside I feel the camels ? where outside waiting ?. This place definitely make me feel in a Middle East . In my personal opinion .

I like the decoration and the way the restaurant is setup”

“Great food great time, definitely would go back.”

“This bar is a good street side location, and has an excellent happy hour special each day of the week. You can’t beat the happy hour special prices, $12 for a draft beer and burger/tacos/pulled pork etc. depending on the day, the pulled pork is my favorite. Excellent draft selection of local beers. Dog friendly lanai. Staff are also very friendly. Our favorite place for happy hour in Kailua.”

“Everything!! Atmosphere is great wonderful staff & you get to make a lot of good memories there . I know I did in the past 3 years….”

“The sushi and nigiri were incredible in quality, arguably one of the best we've ever had anywhere. It is in an unassuming location, but the restaurant is definitely worth going to if you're in the mood for sushi.”

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.”

“Wonderful! I placed the order online, and it was to my hotel door in like 20 minutes. And it is delicious! Unlike other locations, they baked my pizza well-done without baking the cheese sticks well-done. A+

Vegetarian options: They have veggies and are very accommodating to all requests.

Parking: It's a big old parking lot shared with the main exchange and the commissary.

Kailua peeps come down and check them out ..”

“Happy hour pricing was quite reasonable. Three pizzas at $12.00 each fed 4 hungry adults. I was surprised that my wife rated the beer only 6 out of 10. Our server (Stephanie) was FANTASTIC.

Parking: Parking lot around back for multiple retailers.”

“Oh man, this is not real Mexican food. The place is very loud, food was lacking, please serve a good salsa with the chips.

“We decided to grab some coffee before a run, and wanted to do something (hopefully) better than generic Starbucks..what a great choice! The mochas were delicious and just the kick we needed, and the coffee cake was rich in flavor and so yummy. No better spot to enjoy than their comfy couches and chill vibes inside. Very fair price points compared to some coffee joints - and the ladies taking our order and preparing food and drink were simply delightful. Keep up the hard work y'all, you're killin it!”

“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!”

“Hot, fast and always ONO!”

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

“This is a better omakase than in NYC, and like many others commented it is on par with Japan. I very much enjoyed here every course, and I highly recommend it. I also appreciated that the premium course had abalone and abalone liver, because that also speaks to omakase traditions.”

“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.”

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

“Great food. Cool atmosphere. Awesome shakes.”

“Blue Dream Bowl is the best on the island and perfect before a beach adventure. Love the vibes, the mission, the story, the bowls. And yea, our daughter, Rowan, is obsessed with it.”

“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!”

“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”

“A small whole in the wall place in same complex as Cinamon's. Metered parking all around. They have tables inside and some outside seating as well. I had the Supreme Dosa which came with choice of chutney and a soup, was delicious reasonably priced but Dosa could have used more spices.”

“I love their food! I was in Kailua visiting family and I was really craving ramen. They have the best Chicken Katsu Ramen and the workers were super sweet. The food was amazing and I can't wait to come back here the next time I visit! Everyone needs to try this place.”

“Wonder little scones store, the Mrs loves scones and grabbed one of everything. The ladies were sweet and wonderful and what a nice addition to the community. Probably have enough scones to last all week.”

“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.”

“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!!”

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

“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.”

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

“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.”

“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”

“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!”

“This was our 2nd time dining and 1st time for dinner. They did not disappoint!! Friendly and helpful service! Food was delicious and delightfully presented! We were celebrating and it was the perfect evening!! Mahalo! Already looking forward to dining there again!”

“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.”

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

“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.”

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.”

One of the girls did gave us a free croissant for that. I don't know why the girl keep saying teh Tarik when I ordered Teh C, had to confirm again and again.kaya toast tasted correct though.”

Vegetarian options: Toast your veggie sandwich, AFTER, the veggies for a new taste sensation.”

“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.”

“HIGHLY recommend! Above and beyond my expectations, as ALWAYS ❤️”

“Wonderful bubble waffles ice cream, my new favorite ice cream shop!”

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.”

“There was a slight problem with my takeout order. But BCD employee Rara was very helpful to resolve the issue. She demonstrated excellent customer service in following up to make sure I was happy with the resolution. I'm happy to know that there are still people who care about their customers and do their jobs well. Mahalo Rara!”

“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!”

“The staff was really friendly. We got the wombo chombo pizza and Polynesian wings... really delicious! definitely recommend this place”

“Kailua location on Kuulei Road is horrible. Hardly ever get my order correct, drive-tru lines are crazy long. Always seems to be short staffed.”
