We make the drive from Windward side because the food is consistently delicious and fresh, and the service is always friendly with a smile. Even when the food is great, I will skip a place with bad service. After all, who needs that? But these three young folks are friendly and respectful and take pride on serving good food. Impressive.

Love this place. Tired Paniolos for the first time in October 2023 after learning from my boss that its like the hawaii version of chipotle. Ive only tried the chciken bowl with all the fixings. The salsa verde was delish and the bowl its self hit the spot. Now I always crave for paniolos all the time but ive only had it on one other occasion which was a few days ago. The staff is also very friendly and i love that the fountain drinks are refillable haha. I think next time i'll try their tofu protein option. Oh and i love how they have a bench type seating outside, love to eat my bowl outside and watch the cars drive by especially on a nice day.

A great place for healthy eating. I had the bowl with brown rice, black beans, and steak. They have several types of salsa, cilantro, onions, jalapeños, cheese, lettuce, sour cream and guacamole. Portion size is good for a nice meal. Great service and friendly staff. I eat there several times per month.

The salsas are real good and make everything taste better. I appreciate that the food is healthy overall. Service is quick but higher quality than a fast food place.There are vegetarian options also. The staff is quite helpful. It's not expensive. The room is not very inviting. It's just for a place to eat when you're hungry. Only counter service.

So disappointed. I paid a pretty good amount for this paniolo bowl only to come home with it having HELLA soup it in bec the girl who made my bowl didn't drain the meat good. If you look close enough in the corner of the take out container, you'll still see some liquid. Did realize paniolo meat tastes like corn beef which I'm not really a big fan of. I really wanted to like this place but it's a no for me.

Just try to get extra salsa or salsa on the side so you can dip your burrito in it. Everything is good, but you just can’t taste the salsa when you have a burrito here, idk why.
Food was bland and everything looked old, like very old, like it was just sitting out all day. I was honestly kinda scared i would get food poisoning. Got charged $1 for an extra scoop of salsa. Definitely not worth the money and wont be back.

Friendly, inviting and cheerful staff as you enter who makes your order with items you select. The 3 meat tacos with lots of veggies was a delicious filling meal.Vegetarian options: You can choose many items and just leave out the meat. They do have tofu if you prefer.Parking: Part of Kapolei Commons so lots of parking. Location is about 15 yard from parking lot.
