Comfort Food Restaurants near Kaneohe, HI

“Impressed by Pan's Kitchen yesterday! I ordered the fresh grilled ahi, and let me tell you, it was incredible. With the first bite you could tell just how fresh it was - perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Just a heads up, there might be small hard time understanding sometimes due to the owner's accent. But be patient, communication works out, and the food is absolutely worth it. Parking can be tricky - it's one of those places we only go to when we see a spot open. We got lucky yesterday with an empty space, but two trucks swooped in as soon as we pulled in! Despite the potential parking hassle, Pan's Kitchen is a hidden gem. Highly recommend it for the incredible ahi (and hopefully a parking spot)!“

“Awesome food. Brisket Melt I highly recommend! Great view“

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

“I went here after the Aeia loop trail and was looking for a dog friendly cafe for some coffee. I am SO glad I stopped! Though it was a little difficult to find, The food/coffee was amazing (I got an iced vanilla latte and it was great quality), the service was amazing, the waitress Chelsea was so friendly and kind. I will be coming here again and again and again. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars because I would.“

“Zippy’s is basically the Hawaiian version of Denny’s, with all the comfort-food classics and local favorites. I ordered the Lau Lau and Kalua Pork combo, which was one of their Friday specials, and it was such a satisfying Hawaiian plate. My husband got the Korean Fried Chicken, and it definitely did not disappoint! Crispy, flavorful, and really tasty. Zippy’s is a great spot when you want something casual, comforting, and authentically Hawaii-style. 🌺🍽“

“Caught them at Windward Mall this past Saturday, April 9. Best Shoyu Pork….Ever! Prime Rib was da bomb and sooo tender! Very friendly too!“

“Flying in from San Francisco, one of my 1st stops us always Zippy’s Casual friendly atmosphere. Delicious food. Love Portuguese soup and clam chowder. The corn bread fried and buttery. For a delicious taste of Honolulu, run to Zippy’s. I do!“

“A solid ramenya inside the Lanai at the mall. This spot offers a variety of ramen options. Prices are a bit on the higher side but the bowls come in larger portions. I went with the half size spicy tan tan ramen with char siu which was perfect since I wasn’t too hungry. Otherwise the regular size would have been the way to go. The char siu pork was tender with a light chew while the noodles were al dente though thinner than I would have preferred. The real star was the broth which was flavorful, balanced, not overly salty or spicy, and tied the whole dish together beautifully. Seating is limited at the counter but you can always use the Lanai food court area if you prefer.“

“In a strip mall next to Foodland, this is a family friendly diner with a welcoming vibe and nice staff.

Paniolo Chicken Salad and Loco Moco were favorites among the dishes we ordered. Next time we want to eat the Kim Chee burger.

Portions were a decent size, kids meals were awesome too. We plan to be back soon.“

“I had trouble using my Zipster Rewards that are given to a senior customer who formerly had the original rewards.Working supervisor Dan at Waipahu Zippy’s helped me figure out how to use my $100 credit before the end of 2023. Dan was very patient with this old lady who needed lots of help with the app on my phone. Many thanks, Dan.“

“Came in and ordered Teriyaki beef Saimin, mini Loco Moco, Salmon burger with a side of fries, and a mini Chicken Katsu. Very delicious, the chicken was crispy, salmon was cooked well, noodles in the Saimin were not over cooked, and the Loco Moco was great! Highly recommend stopping in here!
We dined in, the A/C could be a little bit colder inside.“

“Love Zippy’s every time I visit I always stop at Zippy’s before I head anywhere else and I always order Korean chicken with extra Mac my favorite.“

“Our family had dinner here where we ordered the ohana meals. We were blown away by the mac salad, the chicken katsu, Korean fried chicken were super good, and the dobash cake was incredible, not too heavy and not too rich/sweet. We ordered the noodles too, and those were okay, but the standout for us was the mac salad, chicken, and cake. It all fed our family of 5 with leftovers.“

“Yummy cheap food great view“

“Miss eating in the new way is okay I guess“

“Great food and a big variety“

“love service and everybody there. food is ono!“

“My first experience with this fast food.

I ordered the 6 PC set, and only had to wait for around 5 minutes for the food to be dished out.

The chicken fingers were crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. The dipping sauce was also fantastic and it enhanced the meal.

The fries were done nicely as was the slice of toasted bread. The cole slaw was also delicious.

Service was fast and efficient and the atmosphere was also great.

Definitely worth repeat visits to this outlet.“

“Lots of variety and choices...although nothing stood out as being spectacular. Weird that there was bits of chopped potatoes in my adobo fried rice omelet. i've definitely had better elsewhere but for a food court concession it was ok! Not bad! The country fries was a little over cooked but it was well seasoned! Good portions! i ate 3/4 od my plate and i was stuffed! 😁👍🏼😁👍🏼“

“My name is Mark. I lived on the island for a couple years 1979 to 1980 I used to frequent Gracies 2 to 3 times a week. The food was amazing. The prices were what I could afford. I will be visiting Oahu on a stopover before I go on a cruise in November and I’ve always told my wife about Gracie‘s. We put it on our itinerary for November 6th the late afternoon to take a cab to Gracie’s and try it again hopefully it exceeds my expectation. see you November 6th 2026 from Washington. My name is Mark. I’m excited.“

“Shout out to Giovanni Pastrami in Waikiki. First of all, they screwed up! Somehow our ticket was missed in the kitchen, and after we had waited nearly an hour for our food, our waitress came and told us what happened and that they were preparing our meal now. She was very apologetic and very professional. Then the head chef came out from the kitchen and personally apologized and told us we were getting a 25% discount for our extra long wait. The food was very good and we were quite full. But then, one more olive branch appeared in the form of a complimentary brownie/ice cream dessert! I never judge a business on their mistakes; shit happens. But I totally judge businesses on how they handle their mistakes, and Giovanni Pastrami gets an A+! Ron & Jeanne Lodge Wenatchee, WA“
