50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Pearl City

“My favorite location! Although I use the self-service option to order, the workers are very kind and friendly, always offering utensils, napkins, a bag, etc. They greet us when we enter and as we leave, and of course the cookies are always as they should be… delicious!“

“amazing shave ice!!!! Best owner!“

“I LOVE THEIR CURRY STEW, HOT SPICY AND SO GOOD! YOU GET LOTS OF MEAT POTATOES AND CARROTS. REMINDS ME OF THE OLD ALAMOANA FOOD WAGON. THAT HAD LINES EVERYDAY, THIRTY YEARS AGO. I WAS SO HAPPY TO FIND THIS PLACE!“

“Teishoku and the combination plates, fills you up at affordable prices.“

“I was told that the owners of Miki’s opened this business to serve food for all the people working graveyard shift or finished work late.

With that being said, this place has the best food anywhere in this time frame 12am - 3am. Miki’s is an amazing change of food choices for late at night.

-The plates are cheaper with big servings compared to other places.
-Lines get long but the wait time after ordering is never past 10 minutes.
-Parking is fun because it’s either on the curb or the side of the street.

People reviewing this place needs to realize this hole-in-the-wall food business is meant for people like me. Those who work late into the night, that’s my demographic. If you’re comparing this place to Zippys or anything like that, then go there shut up. This place makes all their food with love, that beats anything opened after hours to me, no 7/11, McDonald’s, no fast food place can compete that.“

“Always good customer service, professional and they get my order correct.“

“If you need to plug in your computer or phone don’t come here. They covered up all the plugs.“

“Thursday enchiladas are the best. All food is great“

“I always enjoy eating at L&L Hawaiian Barbecue. Even though it’s a chain, this location consistently has great food and does a really good job with the classics.

The katsu was cooked perfectly, the breading had the ideal crisp texture while the meat inside was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I also ordered the mixed BBQ plate, and everything on it was cooked well and tasted fresh.

The woman at the counter was also very friendly and kind, which made the experience even better. Great service always makes a difference.

Out of all the locations I’ve tried, this one is definitely my favorite. The food quality is consistently good, and it’s the spot I always look forward to coming back to.“

“I am a Miami to Alaska transplant and seek out great Cuban food and cafe’ whenever I travel. Castro’s is the real deal!! The Cuban Cafe’ is spot on and the French Toast with the Rum Sauce is off the charts!! Enough food to feed two! The owner is friendly & engaging as is the staff. Stop in, grab a Cafe’ and chill on the sidewalk seating while your breakfast is created..I say created because it is a true work of art…at least in my professional opinion.“

“The Best Rockstar place on Oahu!“

“Highly recommend! Great local spot of shaved ice.

10/10 natural syrup (no artificial flavoring), great fresh fruit, lots of parking, great service. Asian sweetness but they are willing to give you more syrup if you need it.

Will go again!“

“my favorite is well all of it, Ahi poke bowl to pick one. nom“

“these are the best gluten free waffles we've had! My husband is GF, I am not and both of us LOVED this food! He got their dogs and I got their special for the day. I only wish I had room to get 10 more! Really appreciate a dedicated space so he can feel safe to eat!“

“We celebrated a big anniversary at Pai and WOW - they made it extra special. We did the four course menu with wine pairings. The service was top notch. The food was inspired, creative, delicious, and locally sourced. Though the portions of each dish looked small, it was more than enough food and so delicious you wanted to eat every bite! The wine pairings were spot on, absolutely perfect with our chosen courses. The space has such a lovely vibe - clean and modern, but comfortable and well appointed. There really isn't another dining experience quite like this on the island. Justine and Kevin have created such a beautiful place with incredible food and service. Pai is definitely a must-try restaurant. We will definitely be back.“

“The fish was incredible, the hostess was awesome, and it was one of the best meal experiences of my life! Reserve a spot at their omakase and you will have the meal of your life!“

“Their sushi cake exceeded our expectations. It was so delicious and almost too pretty to eat! The 2 guys working when I picked up were awesome! Super friendly and one even took the time to show me the cake and gave tips on how to cut and eat it! Their customer service from ordering to pick up was exceptional!“

“Absolutely my fave coffee farm in island! We go there every year! Amazing atmosphere, cool little store and yummy coffee and treats!“

“First visit to Drip Studio. Everything is awesome but the standout is the mochi waffle with berry compote. Wow! Best waffle I’ve had in a while. Coffee was decent. Not my most favorite coffee in HNL but above average. The vibe here is Chinatown, downtown, bar meets cafe meets modern cool.“

“Going to Jane's Fountain felt like I traveled back in time to one of those old school diner places. On that day, I had the Hamburger Steak. It is one of the best on the island. My only complaint was that there was only one hamburger patty. I would definitely pay extra for the 2nd patty.“

“Best burritos on the planet!“

“Down to earth, great food, good prices, and friendly service.“

“Marugame Udon is one of my favorite spots whenever I’m craving fresh, affordable comfort food. The food is always made fresh, the line moves quickly, and everything tastes consistently great.

My go-to order is the Nikutama Udon with shrimp tempura and chicken tempura. It’s the perfect combo every time. The portions are generous, the prices are hard to beat, and it’s easy to see why this place is always busy.

The only downside is the parking—it can definitely be a challenge. But honestly, the food is worth it. If you’re looking for a quick, delicious, and budget-friendly meal, Marugame Udon never disappoints.“

“It was delicious. Go here. you won't regret it.“

“Absolutely amazing. Best brecky in Waikiki!“

“The Tropical tribe açaí bowl with power toppings keeps me coming back!“

“Food is ALWAYS delicious and the staff is so kind and attentive! Katsu-san creates the most beautiful sashimi platters and omakase sushi!“

“My husband and I had such an amazing experience really, everything about this restaurant is so Ono! Such a nice owner and his team are all on point. Food is so fresh and flavorful the drinks.... ohmygosh they are incredible really. Top level everything about this restaurant will bring you back trust me on that. We tried the wings with harbenero and it had a lil honey to just make them perfect, the fried pork belly was light and crispy we really enjoyed everything. Especially the staff they are so welcoming. We found our perfect spot for great grindz and cocktails the are top level....RJ makes a mean smoked Manhattan and we also tried the gum sour which was a variation on the whiskey sour made with bubble gum liquor i think... Definitely bringing all of my family and friends here! TY“

“Probably the best fried chicken that I have EVER had. If they were to offer a fried chicken plate, chicken sandwich, or just a bucket of chicken I think that I would eat here every day of the week. The fried chicken biscuit and gravy was delicious, but give me just the chicken. I can't rave enough about it. The service here was excellent, very friendly and thoughtful of the entire party. However, it was a bit slow. And don't expect your food to come out quickly. This is a small operation so expect freshly cooked for the table. Parking is the biggest complaint. That said, the headache of finding parking and the longer wait time is worth it for that chicken. An absolute must go for anyone.“

“I bought donuts that are really great! The best I’ve had ! All so fresh and delicious- You get to watch your donut being made- I would go back every day- My boyfriend said this- put the donut in your mouth, sip Kai coffee- then swish it around and swallow— enjoy for 15 seconds- then enjoy all the sugar and flavors around your teeth-then enjoy the flavors between your teeth-enjoy for 45 seconds- then think about going back for another!!! The service is impeccable! I’ll be back!“

“Franceska is wonderful and did such an amazing job on decorating a cake for my wife and sister-in-law. Cannot recommend her cakes enough for those who have gluten, dairy, and other dietary needs/ preferences. We had the double layered strawberry guava cake with coconut icing. Also added fruit and flours to the top. Such a treat :)“

“Only go here if you’re interested in kind of a fancy experience. The lunch experience is about $100 per person. Expect an automatic 20% tip to be added in your bill before you receive it.
Consider this place as your appetizer, but not your full course meal. If you’re really hungry, this restaurant is not for you. It’ll burn a hole in your wallet.
All that being said, they serve fish that I’ve never found in a traditional sushi bar. I was pleasantly surprised by some of the unique flavors that I don’t usually get when I visit Tokyo. The waitress actually explains everything you’re eating. Definitely make reservations, as this is a very small boutique sushi bar with one large table and about half a dozen counter spaces.“

“I highly recommend coming here - especially when Laura is working!! She is such a baddie💪 Highly attentive, VERY knowledgeable about their craft beer, and was super helpful/accommodating with food! We were there to watch a football game, and even though my team played horribly, I still had an amazing time, because of Laura’s hospitality and service❤️“

“First of all, they have to trivia on Tuesdays, which is a pretty cool vibe. I initially stumbled upon this place by going there for an Oktoberfest event, and I've been pleasantly surprised ever since.

The space is very clean, and the coolest part about this shop is their incredible selection flexibility. If you're not digging what they have on tap, you can select literally anything from their massive options in the refrigerators. They will charge you a nominal $2 corkage/service fee to put it into a glass for you to enjoy right there!

Another great feature is that they even have some hard seltzer options if beer and wine are not your thing. It's also conveniently located in SALT Kakaʻako, so the energy and atmosphere around the area are pretty cool.

Definitely a good place to check out for any craft beverage enthusiast!“

“There is seating and you can bring about four or five people per table. There’s also seating outside. It’s a really cool area of dying with family, friends or coworkers and also there is parking lots of parking right behind. It is literally connected within the storage building. literally it is located across McKinley high school’s football field. It is such a jam. They have really good fish there. The ambience is calm. It’s pretty quiet and next-door they have other high-end restaurants. This is a really good area to be in if you want to hang out with people visiting and or just bonding.“

“Best veggie dog I’ve had hands down. It’s also inexpensive for those who are wondering.“

“Had to go back for MORE! Delicious and such creative flavors, plus eye candy.“

“Make sure you triple check your oder. Today we ate at the Honolulu Bistro for the first time. The guy at the register claims he didn't rung us up for 2 sandwiches. At checking out he did say back our order. The recipe is not detailed either. The amount we paid was definitely for 2 sandwiches. We ended up sharing 1 sandwich and left.“

“Love their coconuts and the lady was really nice too! Anybody headed north should definitely stop here for a nice cold coconut“

“The wait was long and more crowded than I would like but it was worth it.“

“Superior classic burgers, great fries, friendly staff and wonderfully nostalgic setting. Highly recommend!!! 🙌🏼“

“Delicious turkey sandwich on artisan bread. The owner was engaging and friendly.“

“Stopped here because the children were getting antsy and it was a very smart move. The food is very good and they have a great menu and they grill outside on these large open grill grates. There was a local neighborhood dog laying underneath a shady bush who visits every day and being a dog owning family we like that.“

“Super unassuming at a public golf course when you walk up you think “am I at the right place” and you may look at the person you are with and think hmmm should we….you should the food was super good portions super solid and if I’m in this area I’ll go back for sure. Feels like a hidden gem and one that is worth a trip to the golf course for even when not playing golf.“

“Old school delicatessen located right in the heart of Kalihi. I bet youve driven past it as the location itself doesnt stand out, blends in with the environment but its neon sign against the early 5 AM hours should entice you to stop.
Simply pick your starchs, sides, meats to be put on a plate and wrapped for take out. Charged per serving, everything was fairly priced. Good size portions that fill you up for less than 10$.
Parking is on the street or in the residential and then you walk. Just watch for your surroundings.“

“Wow! Everything was 10/10. I love that they don’t use the normal torani or mornin syrup. I got a Iilikoi themed matcha and it was delicious. I also got a croissant sandwich that was really good. The sandwich was nicely cut in half (I hate biting into a whole sandwich) and had napkins at the bottom of the box. It’s the little things!!“

“Absolutely wonderful! Great food... outstanding service!“

“I meant to write this review a few weeks ago. However, the service was super nice. The two girls working were very inviting. The gelato is super good and creamy and has an almost stretchy consistency. The toasted marshmallow was my fave. Definitely plan on coming again.“
