“Very good beer.. Rice Lagers are a favorite style and I’ve found lots of them on Oahu. Prices were among the highest on this trip but hey I get it we are in Hawaii. Knowledgeable and friendly staff and a good vibe from the other patrons. If we were local we’d be back!”

“Amazing food prepared by amazing people.”

“After my left knee replacement surgery in December 2023 I experienced a gout attack in that whole area of my leg. I was bedridden and couldn’t put weight on it. A decision was made to find a skilled nursing/rehab facility. I was able to get a bed at Aloha Nursing and Rehabilitation in Kaneohe.
From my 1st day the admin office, nursing, and CNA’s were Great!! The physical therapist staff were also terrific!! Love it there for my total of 20days! I was able to get a hair cut too! If I had do it again I would definitely go there hands down!! Plenty Mahalo’s to Aloha Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Kaneohe!👍🏽🤙🏽💪🏽💪🏽”

“Best burrito in Hawaii! And great margaritas to go with it!”

“Friendly staff, AYCE is awesome for $20!! My friends and I had a blast!”

“Affordable price for buffet lovers. Valet parking is reasonable... Lots of choices to choose from... all you can eat for a price you will never regret...”

“Adorable little restaurant here in Kaneohe with friendly service, and expert care for the food quality. I am fairly picky about my Thai and I t’s been years since I’ve found a new Thai restaurant with this much attention to the quality of their curry. :) go, you won’t regret trying!”

“We had a great experience and the food was 10/10. We took our toddler who was really needing a nap and they were so friendly and helped keep him happy. We had the king crab combo. Even if you don’t like spicy, this place has something for you!”

“This little food truck makes great shrimp dishes! This area has few sit-down restaurants, but there are quite a few food trucks, and Aloha Shrimp was one our favorites. I especially loved the Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp. Check it out!”

“My friend and I had such a great experience at Gyu-Kaku, and a big part of that was because of our server Karl. From the moment we sat down, he was welcoming, attentive, and genuinly kind. He also makes the best li-hing-mui margaritas! He checked on us consistently with out being overbearing. Karl's energy really stood out to us, and we told him that we'd only ask for him when we come back! If you're dining here, definitely ask for Karl!”

“Always happy to go here , food always great along with the service, son grew up going there, hopefully his children will also get the pleasure of doing the same.”

“First time here. Was delicious and surprised me that a good breakfast was right here at Windward Mall Ruby Tuesday. I had the deconstructed Loco Moco. The hamburger patty was spot on. Go try it out. Ask for Brandon. Unless you goin complain then ask for Nick.”

“The baristas(?) were friendly and immediately corrected an order error. I had the honeydew smoothie and a an iced caramel drink and they were both stellar. My friends were tickled by how much I enjoyed them. And they recommend the strawberry macron if you get one.”

“I met a friend of mine and her son for drinks. We both had the single serving ($42) and lychee soju. We had Da Mix sauce with the single serving of seafood and it was great!!! Highly recommend 💯 if you love seafood 🦞 !!

While the single was priced decently, other dishes were extremely highly priced. Our single seafood was $42, but to add a cluster of snow crabs was an additional $55 - more than our entire meal!! (which consisted of snow crab, shrimp, mussels, clams, and potatoes) I don't understand the reasoning behind this - it makes no sense at all.

Also the oysters 🦪🦪 were also extremely high.. we live on an island 🏝️, seafood should not be this expensive 🫰 💰.

Overall though, great food and customer service 🥰🏵️🌟”

“Love coming here after a long day at work to enjoy amazing drinks and food being served up by awesome servers that cater to you while you play bingo or just enjoying live music on the patio!!! Definitely me and hubby favorite spot always have a great time”

“The bartenders are very attentive and have great personalities. I was so happy we found this place and I am looking forward to coming back as soon as possible. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to have a good time.”

“All you can eat. They even have lunch specials. My son loved the BBQ chicken and their steamed eggs. I loved the steam eggs, salt n pepper steak, brisket and the mandoo.. it was awesome..”

“Totally not your normal sushi restaurant, it’s an amazing experience. Robot assistants to bring your drinks, conveyor belt trains to bring your food orders. So many great menu options, anything with the eel sauce is sweet and delicious. The tempura and fried rolls were delivered hot, perfect portions and artistically arranged on the plates. We LOVE coming here and will always come back!”

“Pizza hut was my favorite! But now it's Papa John's! Just because of the the fact that their pizza Is not oily like PIZZA HUT! But hands down the best pizza I ever ate was MAGOO'S PIZZA! & I'M A PIZZA LOVER! ????”

“My husband & I come here all the time because it’s close to us and close to the movies, and reminds us of home. We have had pretty awful experiences almost every time we’ve been as far as service is concerned, but we continue to go because of the food. We went last night and had the best service we’ve ever had! Our waitress, Nick, was the best! Friendly, smart, attentive, and speedy! And she was good at upselling. She was great and my husband and I kept saying it was the best experience we have had at this location. Food also came out faster than usual, which was awesome especially considering it was BOGO Thursday. :)”

“Great spot to grab fresh poke where the locals shop - we had a hard time deciding so the lovely gentleman let us try a few things. We left with 5 containers of the most delicious poke we ever had and ate it in the Botanic Garden nearby, highly recommend!!!”

“Found this place through a Google Maps Search. We were in the area and decided the try the Malasadas as a snack and so glad we did! My personal favourite is the regular original one (no stuffing) as it has a perfect balance between the fried and sweet level for me.

I found out later that their flagship in Waikiki is super popular with a permanent line up. Good option to avoid waiting!”

“Huli chicken plate, chicken was fantastic, I didn't like the Mac salad personally. To me it was bland with too much mayonnaise, like eating a spoonful. But the chicken was so moist and flavorful! Yummy”

“Food is amazing! Owner and the Ohana is great amazing friendly people. The atmosphere is very welcoming and they treat you like family. My family and I always come here regularly and we won't stop. 5.0 star all the way. Won't regret eating here.”

“Fresh catch is the best! Reasonable prices too”

“Everything on the menu is onolicious and what makes it even better is the ohana that makes you feel right at home. Well worth the drive from the west side. 😋😉 Don’t forget to pick up a tray of butter mochi too!!”

“TCS reminds me of the song from cheers. "Wouldn't ya wanna go where everybody knows you name and they're always glad you came." A SIX star operation”

“The beef curry is on point. They have a great variety of musubis to choose from and some very cool deserts as well.💯👏👏”

“Just Wow. We are a week and half into our honeymoon and this is what he best food we have had on the island, and honestly some of the best seafood I have ever had. The fish tasted like it was caught this morning. Will definitely be coming back. The prices were also very reasonable.”

“Drove here from Wahiawa and through a flash flood and it was still well worth it. I haven’t had a fresh beef patty since living in NYC. Beef and cheese was top notch! I’m not a vegetarian but the impossible beef was also too good to be a meat substitute. They have a sauce that adds a sweet heat and I highly recommend. They were sold out of coco bread when I went but I will be returning. 9.5/10.”

“Best cold fresh coconuts on the island! I tried two other stalls and this one had the best juice and coconut meat. They also sell bananas, papayas, and pineapple.

Also very nice that they accepted Venmo if you don’t have cash on hand.”

“Very good, hope is consistent in taste and amount for the price. Far today Tuesday Jun 19th sister Geri’s 85th an possibly last as in Hospice mould so God willing see Wongs Again. Next week. Mahalo & Aloha Uncle Wally 808”

“Friendly service, great food, wide variety - always hot and fresh.”

“Love their Papaya salad platters, Phö broth, Sandwiches, Vermicelli, plate lunch combos, Summer rolls, desserts and smoothies. All so fresh, tasty and delicious!! The owner is amazingly friendly and can remember your name and your order from previous visits. Miss the indoor dining.”

“The Food is Phenomenal – Get Here Now!
The food here was absolutely fantastic, but the service is what really sets it apart. You can always judge a place by its staff, and these guys were not only recommending everything I ate but bragging about the rest of the menu. They even let me sample a few things—it’s clear they’re proud of what they’re serving. They mentioned the grand opening is coming up shortly, so do yourself a favor and go eat here before everyone else finds out how awesome it is!”

“Simple, authentic Hawaiian food that really hits the spot. Casual setting, generous portions, and great local flavors—exactly what you want after a day exploring.”

“Great service and super friendly with great food! Made daily and great choices. Must try it and you’ll love ❤️ it!”

“Now called Javi’s. Food was great! The waitress was super nice and attentive. The food came out fast, hot, and fresh. I wish the queso dip wasn’t over $12, but the other dishes are reasonably priced. BYOB at the moment until they get their liquor license. There’s a market next door that might have alcoholic beverages. There’s parking lot is a little cramped, so massive trucks would be hard to park in there.”

“Great coffee! Great service!”

“Really enjoyed my visit here! The drinks taste amazing, fresh, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The boba was chewy just right. The place is super clean too, which makes it feel welcoming. Will definitely come back!”

“Great little hole in the wall restaurant with delicious food made fresh and friendly staff. This is obviously a locals favorite in the area and the locals aren't wrong!”

“Anytime my mom asked, “Do you wanna go get Ayame ramen?” my answer was always, “Yes! YAY, Ayame!” As a kid, this was the first place I ever had ramen that wasn’t from a cup or a packet, and it made a huge impact on my tastebuds and what I’d be open to trying for the rest of my life.

Their curry and ramen are both incredible. I still remember staring at the fish cake, wondering what it was, but loving the flavor and texture, and thinking the bright pink swirl looked so cool. I even started putting chili oil in my ramen at a young age because of this place, I loved the heat and the flavor.

This place left such a lasting impression on me, and I would love to revisit and experience that nostalgia again, especially with my mom. That’s the heart of what makes a great restaurant, when someone loves their food enough to share it, and it becomes part of your memories together.

Wishing your restaurant many blessings and continued good fortune. I hope the families who come in today get to enjoy the ramen as much as I did, because 20 years later, I still remember that first bowl.”

“Leroy is the man and his food is out of this world”

“Haven’t had better pho on this side of the island than Saito & Pho. Bahn Mi is great very good. They do it right with the spring rolls in that it comes with lettuce wrap and other accoutrements like it should.”

“Came to dinner tonight with my husband. He’s been craving good roast duck and this place was it for him. Clean, great service, delicious and generous portions!”

“Picked up party trays for a small New Year's celebration. The food was delicious and all our favorites: chicken katsu, gyoza, pork fried noodles, shabu beef curry. The curry can be messy in a tray but they double-wrapped it in foil to keep it from spilling. It is the best curry anywhere. Everyone at Sumo Ramen Kaneohe is always willing to do whatever it takes to make us happy. The prices are good too. They made our New Year special.”

“My fave Teri hamburger/namasu on da side... Can't forget the potatoe, Ohhh Yaaa”

“Their Panang curry was amazing! Small business thar deserves big kudos to their authentic taste. The staff are all very friendly, they worked their tails off to the last minute in lunar new years. Everything is ordered fresh, so make sure you get there before dishes run out. They sell out so quick. Going for the chicken satay next time.”

“Been loving their fried chicken since I was young. Just found out today my daughter LOVES their furikake chix. Will be spending alot here as my daughter is a very picky eater lol. Ty so much KJ's for the bomb food you been providing forever in kaneohe.”

“I just want to say how amazing Janine is! I was doing DoorDash and I had to pick up an order that unfortunately was after hours and my customer was waiting for a long time because there were no drivers but ever so gracefully she opened the doors to me to complete my order. We chatted while she made the order and she is just so awesome and I’ll be back here personally for myself. This location and company is so very lucky to have someone like this representing them! Thank you Janine!!! You’re five star girl!!”

“Just imagine coming from your car in Kaneohe walking into Chinatown that was what my experience was like at Penn's kitchen this morning it's kind of refreshing”

“The food was really tasty and felt healthy. Prices are about the same as fast food chains, but here you get fresh and nutritious meals instead. A great option if you want something more wholesome without paying extra.”

“Five star for a food truck! Ordered the spicy chicken stir-fry which included fresh vegetables. The sauce was awesome. Also the barbecue shrimp comes with rice and vegetables.”

“If you’re a true sushi lover, this place is an absolute must. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with warm hospitality that instantly feels like you’ve been welcomed into a traditional Japanese sushi-ya. The staff not only provide impeccable service — attentive, gracious, and prompt — but they also speak Japanese, adding an extra layer of authenticity that’s increasingly rare to find outside of Japan.

But let’s talk about the real star here: the sushi. The hand rolls are, without exaggeration, the best. The fish is impossibly fresh, the rice is seasoned to perfection, and the balance of flavors is masterful. Every bite is crafted with such care and precision that you can tell the chefs are true artisans of their craft.

What’s the catch? They close early — like, 3 PM early. And that’s honestly the only downside. It’s a bit of a heartbreak knowing something this incredible isn’t available for dinner. But if you can plan your day around it, you’ll be rewarded with a sushi experience that’s unforgettable.”

“Awesome ������ Best sushi, service, my kids and husband's and I favorite place to eat”

“Good service, calm atmosphere and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend to stop by if you're in the area! We'll definitely be back to try out more of the plates they offer.”

“My husband and I ate lunch here on our anniversary after shark diving. It was delicious! We sat at the bar with Steve and really enjoyed the conversation and his recommendations for food! 😋 Probably the best burgers we’ve had in a long time!”

“All the juices are so fresh and delicious! You can customize your drink with no sugar, which I love. And their bobba is very good and not too sweet. They have all the fruit juices, like chico, sour sop, dragonfruit, so many to choose from, I can’t wait to go back, yum!”

“I’m so happy someone recommended this location. My first place I went to was in Honolulu at Walmart. L&L and food was dry and burnt and very small portion when i orded regulat not micro.
This location was so delicious and cooked perfectly and great portion size. The macaroni salad was the best I’ve had in Hawaii. I have to say they did the next home job.”

“Great drinks & great honey toast”

“For Korean fast food, this place is a good choice. The quality, quantity and price point were just as good as any fast food place out there. The side dish collection was quite good and varied. Plenary of food court seats were available.”

“Good home-cooked food. If you just get tired of eating McDonald's, Wendy's, etc. My favorite is the fish burger, fries, and hamburger steak.

Miss you, L&R. I moved to Florida. See you when I come home for vacation. Aloha and Mahalo for your service.”

“The best Korean bbq in Kaneohe! The portions always hooked up prices reasonable and the sides are always fresh. Everything on the menu is good but my favorite is the kalbi plate.”

“In the center of Windward Mall Food Court stands Noods Ramen Bar. I've heard great things about this restaurant, so today we'll embark on another appetizing adventure.
The workers are cheerful, friendly, and knowledgeable about their products. They answer your questions in a warm, positive way.
We had dishes that had shoyu broth in one and pork based broth for the other.
As with any dining experience, you begin your adventure with your olfactory senses, then your vision, and finally your taste buds. With the cacophony of sights and sounds permeating through Windward Mall, it may take a different level of concentration to focus on one specific thing. Right away you catch the favorable fragrance, floating to you. My eyes were excited to see the picture of the simplistic, yet satisfying dish before me.
I had the Shoyu Ramen, and my son had the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen. The noodles were pleasantly robust. An excellently executed emulsion of flavors. Succulent, savory, satisfying. The broth was perfectly balanced. Not overtly salty, tempered to blend and compliment the other ingredients but not overshadow them as some broth has a tendency to do. The pork was cooked to perfection. It was soft and juicy, which added a subtle layer of unexpected flavor. The aji tamago, and menma completed the package exquisitely.
The Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen had a pork bone broth, so it was very savory. My son said it was very good. The pork was simultaneously soft tender and juicy. It was easy to chew, not rubbery and overdone as is the tendency of other establishments. Broth was very tasty. Immediately spicy, with no wait for the after kick. It was neither too oily nor greasy, rather it served to enhance the already palatable flavor that hit just right. Noodles were good, absorbing, and distributing each emusified taste into a delectable, delightful dish.
They have an amazing amount of options on their vegan menu as well. Overall, it was a very positive, pleasant, culinary encounter. I highly recommend this as an enjoyable eating experience!”

“Portuguese donuts... what is not to love. Eaten when they are hot, they are totally delicious. Melt in your mouth. Very different from normal donuts...more doughy ... normal ones I think are the best.”

“Take-out only. I got 2 banh mis: the avocado and tofu. But we're really good and super big! Very filling! I got a side of just pho broth which isnt on the menu but they offer & the taro tapioca.”

“CHINATOWN EXPRESS WINDWARD MALL FOOD COURT
Everything I have ordered from this restaurant so far has been great. What blows my mind is the amount of food they give. Very, very generous servings. The service is fast and always served with courtesy and patience. I’m a picky eater so I ask a lot of questions about the ingredients, they always patiently answer. You won’t be disappointed ENJOY!”

“I’ve been twice and I really love the Pretzels. I usually get cinnamon bites and I was kind of sus about the way they made it because it didn’t look like the cinnamon sugar got on every pretzel but was so surprised when I ate them all and they all had cinnamon flavor on it. It’s super yummy and the people that rung me up have been super kind. Really love it!!”

“the Teri chicken with cheese st8 🔥”

“Great spot if you like building your own pizza! I love how you can customize everything — crust, sauce, cheese, and toppings. The pizza comes out hot and fresh from the oven, and the flavors are really good.

The place is clean, service is friendly, and it’s a nice casual spot to grab a quick meal. Perfect for a relaxed lunch or dinner in Kaneohe. I’ll definitely be back!”

“As a puertorican picky eater I was skeptical but I was AMAZED! I ordered the cold noodles with Bbq Chicken and Sweet Chili Shrimp. Delicious, I ate everything on the plate. My family all ordered something different and every plate was empty. A must try place!”

“Food was terrific and the staff was very friendly.”

“This location is within the mall. The food was good as was the service and the atmosphere is that of an old-school diner.
Lots of families there so they can accomodate larger parties.”

“Get the huli huli chicken and the kalua pork! Both were tender and juicy! Huge portions, great value”
