20 Best Chicken Restaurants near Pearl City

“Heard about this place and was curious to find out for ourselves! It’s all that! Prices and service exceptional. One man show but he was able to deliver! Oh! The huli huli chicken is fire! Tasted a little hint of jerk chicken in this version! It was bomb!!!! I recommend and definitely will be back!“

“Inside of food hall of H-Mart. We tried the honey garlic wings. They were very good compared with similar eateries in California and here. The chicken was not doused with over abundant of sauce and the chicken remained crispy until the end. The service wasn’t bad, but the young man could be a bit more awake. The eating area was clean and had plenty of seats.“

“Food is delicious as always. The disappointment was that I couldn’t use their app to get rewards OR to use rewards… I can understand it if it’s just not a thing at this location, BUT they are advertising the Rewards program on their windows… and yet they “don’t have a scanner” to scan the codes…“

“I am a stickler when it comes to smoked meats and this restaurant is absolutely a staple on the island. Everyone driving the coast should really consider giving this a try. All you need is a whole chicken, cup of dipping juice and something cold to drink.“

“So good! Driving up to the North Shore from the airport we wanted something local. Family owned. No frills just awesome chicken. So juicy. We all had sandwiches and the pulled chicken is more like chunks with some pulled. Not overly shredded. And not doused with sauce. Just a nice enhancement. We had the melts and they were delicious. The bread is crusty but soft inside. An easy bite. And my son loved his Cajun fries. Off street parking in the rear.“

“First time experiencing Jollibee. Food was good, wish I could have gotten more of a sampler of many things on the menu since I dont know when I will ever be around another Jollibee. My only thing is I was on a time crunch and the wait was significant. This seems normal because they had a question lines prepared just for people to wait for their food. Could be because of the quantity they are doing, but it was still a personal long wait time for me.
Would go again and tried a fried pie! You should too.“

“Absolutely phenomenal! I came through drive-through to pick up a mobile order only to find that they didn’t have any record of it in the system. However, the staff quickly assessed the problem which was that I had placed the order for the next day. Rather than turning me away, or asking me to replace the order, the manager quickly and expertly triaged with the Staff, and I received my food within minutes. The manager even credited my online order payment to the meal I received so that I wouldn’t have to go online to cancel and refund the mobile order. They fixed my mistake with impeccable professionalism and courtesy. The team at the Kaneohe branch demonstrates rarely-seen levels of customer service. Thank you!“

“Look, it’s jollibee. The burgers are decent and it’s fast food. The spaghetti joy does seem a little less “I’m gonna get the betus” but it’s good. Honestly, every time we can, we always smuggle back yumm burgers, those things are awesome!! However, it is Hawaii, so here it is a tad expensive.“

“Today 4/23/2026 we ordered food to go (Kalihi location) via the APP. Fried chicken Sides: mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and biscuits. The FC was very good, crispy, tender/juicy and seasoned just right. We stopped going to KFC years ago because of poor quality. They don’t come close to JOLLIBEE! My order was ready pretty quickly around 1245p. Kudos to the staff who prepared our food. When I got home, the chicken was still very warm too.“

“Great food and very clean.“

“This place has the best chicken wings I’ve ever had! The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. My husband and I both really enjoyed the wings, and I also had the chicken sandwich it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend Chicken University to anyone visiting the area. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Used the drive through. The service was quick, friendly and efficient even with a decent line of cars. The only downside to this Chick-fil-A is their minimal space causing the drive thru line to feed into the road. I wouldn't hold that against the staff here. Also, on the plus side if the line stays you can get back on the road fairly easy on the other side.“

“I’ve been on island (Oahu) for 31 years now, I’ve been to all the 4 and 5 star restaurants, this is easily the best customer service experience I’ve had anywhere, ever.! Food was excellent, establishment clean - fantastic and customer service even better. All the staff at this location are fantastic, the cashier and server, Chanel, a complete and total professional and a first class lady!“

“Good the chicken🤙🤙🤙outstanding service“

“seen this place on tinytvs Instagram. so me and my other half went to try it out. omg best fried chicken wings ive had on island , hands down!“

“My family and friends love Popeyes 🍗 chicken because of the taste and flavor that is best among the rest. Most of all it is highly recommend to all friends and families alike.“

“Slightly costly, but overall good flavor and a decent amount of food.

I did takeout. Ordered the boneless chicken plate, it was still crispy when I ate it later. Instead of Mac salad, it came with carrots, pickled daikon, ranch dressing over shredded cabbage and rice. I got the soy garlic sauce. I liked that they kept the sauce in a container separate so it doesn't make the chicken soggy.

No issues with service.

Atmosphere is pretty much the shared food hall, not too noise with good number of seats around the floor.“

“chicken sandwich was terrific“

“Popeyes is so darn good...
They've got indoor seating area that they share with burgerking. Kind of like a small food court, gets really busy around 12:00pm on the drive thru so I would recommend going inside around that time.
Drive thru starts clearing out around 1:00pm
Very empty on weekends.“

“comfort food at it's best“
