Elevated local plate lunch with Japanese influence. They give out good portions and I haven't been disappointed with anything I've tried yet. Faves are the Garlic Ahi, Salmon Katsu and Furikake Garlic Chicken. Parking is easy, but limited dining space. Perfect for takeout!

I cannot say enough great things about this place. Hands down my favorite food on Oahu so far. We loved it so much we ate there two nights in a row. Everything was extremely flavorful and delicious. The front staff were two very knowledgable, friendly and welcoming young adults. They shared with us their favorite spots to check out and gave us great local recommendations. We dined in both nights. There were two tables (a 4 person & a 6 person) so if you plan to dine in, I recommend calling ahead to make a reservation. However, it was the perfect spot for grabbing and going. All the food was well packaged for easy transport. My favorite was the Teriyaki Chicken with chile aioli on top. If you’re in Mililani do not miss out! Make sure you stop and enjoy some truly delicious cuisine.

I thoroughly enjoyed Rice Box Cafe. The teriyaki chicken was hot, fresh off the stove, and delicious. Makes a great takeout dinner.
The staff was also very friendly.

We tried Rice Box Cafe and got the Furikake Garlic Chicken and the Dynamite Chicken. Both my husband and I loved the Furikake Garlic Chicken—it was flavorful, crispy, and totally hit the spot. The Dynamite Chicken wasn’t quite for us; it had a fishy or seaweed-like taste that just didn’t match our preferences. That said, we still ate both plates and would definitely come back again.
The service was quick, kind, and efficient—we only waited about 5 to 10 minutes. The place stays consistently busy with people coming and going, which speaks to its popularity. There are only two small tables inside, so it’s definitely more of a takeout spot.
There are so many other things on the menu that look amazing, so we’re excited to come back and try more!

My husband is in Hawaii for work right now and has been trying out a lot of different restaurants.
Yesterday he went to this restaurant. It’s clean and well lit and the staff was very nice. They were polite and gave some great recommendations.
My husband ordered the salmon katsu. He said it was very good. The portion was plenty full, and it was very flavorful.
If you’re looking for something authentic in it, local eatery, he said you should definitely check this place out.

We ordered Furikake chicken, nishime and Miso salmon. Everything tasted so yummy! Best I’ve had in a long time! Must try if you’re in Mililani!!
Wow! Quality food & service! Hard to find a place as locals we want to return to, but this place is our new favorite 💘

Food was really good, pricey but worth it. I had the shoyu pork, my son had the teppanyaki steak, and we also ordered the dynamite chicken. First 2 were really good, dynamite was chicken was just okay.
Great food, good service.
