12/2025 I happened upon this quaint, friendly and fast place by accident. Located next to Inkspot, people drive by for a really quick and onolicious pickup. They offer 3 simple bentos that offer a quick but wide variety of food. Drop by to get your quick fix to start your day. They open at 6am. D, one of the owners was really informative and helpful. And the food offerings is what attracts your eye at their prices. Not overly huge but very reasonable and economical portions in these trying times. A nice niche option just minutes from anywhere in town and the airport. Onolicious! 😉🤙✌️

Ordered through the window. This restaurant has a new owner and it once had a place where you could sit and have your lunch. Now, you just have to order it and go somewhere to enjoy your box lunch.
I ordered the deluxe and it was good. The portions were decent. (Take a look at the photo).

We loved this local spot in Kauaʻi! The people working here were so nice and welcoming. The food was very good and the prices were super affordable. Definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. Mahalo!! we’ll be back if we return to the islands!

DJ's is a take out only place. Orser at the front the window and off you go in a minute or two. Everything looked really good here, but we only ordered a couple of things. We ordered the regular and deluxe lunchbox, both were really good. The cone sushi is huge, but very tasty and good. The lunchboxes are like the old style my grandmother used to give me when going fishing. Everything in the lunchbox was good.
We will definitely ve going back when we go back to Kauai.

Box lunch comes with most items on the a la carte menu, depending on the size you get (small, regular, deluxe). We got the small and it was a good sampler of a lot of the items! Corned beef hash was my personal favourite, I immediately went back to order another one to eat. The spam musubi was also good. Overall, super reasonably priced for the food that you're getting.

Have you ever tried a box lunch in Hawaii? If you haven’t or are looking for the bomb.com food, I highly recommend DJ’s Box Lunch. You can order items individually, but a regular or deluxe box comes with the standard…chicken, rice, egg, salad, pickled veggies, luncheon meat, hot dog, teri beef, and a side dish…the deluxe comes with fried shrimp. Come hungry because I promise you, after you eat this box, you’ll be full! Side note..this is a take out order business only.

Very yummy! The beef box thingy was delicious! $10-$12 per person. Cheap, delicious, good service, what else do you want in a restaurant? They even offered to hold a musubi for me the next day!
This place is a local gem. Their service was great and is just outside the airport. The food is amazing and is super inexpensive. Come show them some love.

NOTE: I TRAVEL THE WORLD AS A FOOD BLOGGER ENTHUSIAST! This means, I try to eat as many places I can everywhere around the world and then give my honest opinion of everything I ate.
My latest visit was to the beautiful island of Kaua'i, Hawai'i.
The location was smack dab in the middle of the island in a town called Lihu'e. Ample parking in a nice clean parking lot. I was stoked to find somewhere that opened early to grab a quick bite (6 am! Even though I didn't make it there exactly at 6 am! It was nice to know they were open). The outside window was neat and clean with their menu and beautiful pictures of what they offered neatly arranged in a good, easy-to-see view for ordering customers and passerby's. I find myself still in awe of how neat their signs were placed. I ordered a Spam Musubi and a Deluxe Box Lunch as recommended by the patron who ordered ahead of me, as well as the little girl who worked the window. What was supposed to be a snack was my breakfast and then some. I devoured the whole thing! The food was hot and everything was delicious. The fried chicken was superb, the beef was cooked to where it melted in my mouth, the mac salad was not too wet or too dry, It was made perfectly! The Spam Musubi so so so so good! Amazing flavor that didn't overpower the musubi. I wish I had time to write about everything I ate from that cute white box. I ate everything before I left the parking lot. Good thing I got there when they opened for there was a line starting to form already, I sat there in my car rental satisfied! Good job DJ's Box Lunch!!!! I'll be back before I leave the island for more.
LOCATION: 4/5 (I wish it were an ocean view)! FOOD: 4.8/5 (I wish I had more)! CUSTOMER SERVICE: 5/5 (nice little girl working the window). ATMOSPHERE: 5/5 (neatly placed signs did it for me)! OVERALL: 4.925 / 5 STARS! GRADE: A
I will be publishing a more detailed review of DJ's Box Lunch in the Bloggers Post and The L.A. Times with pictures.

We got an opportunity to meet both of owners while we were there, meeting both D & J of DJs. The food was immaculate. It was fantastic have some local eats served by some of the friendliest people we've ever met. The food was not expensive and tasted great. We got our food and sat in our truck bed and ate under some beautiful weather. My wife and I are definitely going back before we leave the island! Thank you, DJ for a wonderful experience
