“Best BBQ spot in the area.“

“Ordered the Mahi katsu. Taste delicious, value for cost, excellent. The plate was just under 14 dollars and there were 4 count um 4 full sized pieces of fish. They have many side dishes to choose from as well. If you are a fish lover, this is the plate you've been looking for.“

“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.“

“We had the seafood combo, the teriyaki steak bowl, double cheeseburger deluxe, chicken sandwich and two orders of fries , 3 fountain drinks and a coconut water. Steak bowl was small but it was very filling. Burger was huge and so was the chicken sandwich. Seafood combo was delicious. Definitely recommend“

“I ordered the korean fried chicken knowing it has a 25 minute wait, so worth it. I ordered the spicy one with a side of 3 scoops of rice, I ordered the half chicken the picture is the half I didnt eat yet. For the the price you can't beat it.“

“Awesomeness!! Have you moved your location??“

“Best burritos BY far in all of Oahu! Highly recommend!!“

“Friendly staff and yummy food.“

“We went and got food here after the big storm and everyone without power. They were the only food truck that stayed open well past 11pm to help feed everyone. They were so kind to stay open to make sure people had food! It was delicious and we appreciate their sacrifice and their aloha spirit!“

“Ate there today.. best BBQ pork I’ve had here on Oahu. Hawaiian sauce was wonderful and baked beans were simmered with tiny pieces of jalapeños, had a slight delicious kick. Wedge salad… heavenly. i“

“This is the perfect hidden food place that locals go to. Good food, good prices and the service is practically non existent. Meaning, it's 99% take out. There is a small table outside but that's why it's cool. No nonsense food at a good price. I highly recommend the Bento #1, the Katsu and the fried chicken.

Parking: The parking is hard to find but if you wait for a few minutes someone will leave.“

“100% Super delicious foods 👌😋😍“

“The owner makes sure she gets your order right and is very friendly. The portion sizes here are great. My husband and I were able to eat off one combo plate while also sharing an appetizer. I highly recommend the korean fried chicken plate. Absolutely would visit this location again.“

“Fabulous food!! Best in Waikīkī!! The food truck across the street from the convention center. 5 stars!!!! They have a restaurant too!!!“

“Amazing BBQ: the shrimp wrapped bacon was succulent and flavorful. The pork was pork belly, juicy and intense smoke flavor. The chicken was cooked to perfection!!! Heading back soon.“

“Always great tasting fresh food and they change their specials every day plus large portions make my opu really happy every time I stop by! Totally recommend this place! 🤙🏼“

“Military only ..Was not able to eat here but don't want to ruin ratings. If you're not in military, don't go to this restaurant. You're not allowed to enter... Don't go through the gate, turn around before- unless you have military ID, otherwise you will have problems.“

“If you're looking for some roast pork, chicken or duck come here. It's a pick up and go place so don't expect a place to sit unless you find some outside in the plaza. If you're looking for simple, great tasting roasted meat on rice or crispy noodles this is the place. It's simple and delicious. The menu isn't extensive. Other than those roasted meats there's also ginger chicken that I particular love.

The cost of the food here is a great value as well. Each plate I got was enough to feed 2 or 3 people. I would recommend getting a mix of the meats and share. It was all good.“

“Just go there and get it.“

“Was a nice change of scene. Celebrated Alex 10th Birthday per his request. Most of our family is tall, at the end of the round of golf 2 peoples back were sore from bending down a lot lol.
Also, felt pressured with people behind us being that we were a party of 6, but couples and families were nice enough to skip the hole and go ahead of us.

1 different colored ball and 1 club assigned per player.

Next time we’ll try their BBQ. It was a rainy day so we left after our game.

Would we go back? On occasion.“

“My auntie used to take us here all the time when we had sleep over on weekends because the food is awesome and large portions and affordable. She would order two of the special plates and good enough for the four cousins. The small restaurant is in a 2 story building on the street behind Times Waipahu so parking is not an issue.

Today, the quality and taste stayed the same, with a fully loaded and worth the price. It included a good size strip each of meat jun, kal bi, BBQ chicken, BBQ beef, 4 veggies and rice for under $23, good enough for 2 meals. The owners are lovely and friendly. The kimchi here is authentic. Also the Spicy Beef Soup is fire.“

“This food is EXCELLENT. Got #20: chicken and beef, with sides of seaweed, noodles, cabbage, bok choi, rice, gyoza. It was DELICIOUS. If my stay here was longer, I would be back for sure. The owner was so nice. He gave my sisters and I complementary mango drinks which were so fresh, real and delicious. Support this awesome business!“

“I usually go before they close at 8:30 PM because I don’t noticed that if you do go right before they close, they’ll give you a whole a lot of food lol but I love the portion that they do give their sides are amazing. I got that barbecue chicken special with the four piece Mando for $2.99 extra and in the photos I showed you all sides they also have catering. The tables are limited. You can only fit up to four people per table. It can get crowded during lunch hours. I would prefer to do takeout because even with my medium sized body have a hard time squeezing in the booth lol but overall I got a man do plate and my total was about $48 total. I’ll say it’s totally worth it. One of the best barbecue cases you can eat at. I know there’s other locations like in Alamoana and Kahala but this is my favorite one. I would also recommend phone call orders cause that would be faster. There is a lot of parking and it’s inside of the Waipahu shopping center right next to the new Hope Church.“

“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!“

“Spicy Ahi has been our go-to Friday dinner spot for many years, and for good reason! Their ingredients are always fresh and high quality, making every meal consistently delicious. What truly sets them apart is their careful attention to takeout packaging—everything is packed thoughtfully to ensure the food stays fresh and intact by the time we get home. Whether dining in or taking out, Spicy Ahi never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Great value for the food! Good customer service too! 😄“

“Amazing Huli Huli chicken and BBQ ribs. I recently found this food truck after living in Honolulu for many years. I highly recommend these guys. The service was excellent and the portions were large. I liked everything I ate, chicken, ribs, pork, and the sides. I will most definitely bring my Family and Friends here.“

“Now I get l&l is cliche and everywhere with somehow varying levels of constancy on and off the rock I'll admit Mauka is prolly in the conversation for best one I've had. For what it's worth the portions haven't changed a bit since they opened and crispness of everything is always welcome in my house! My problem as with most places boils down to rising costs. Again while understandable it turns places I and I assume others would rely on for a decent meal should we not want to cook or have a craving but again turns into a welcome treat/luxury. Overall still a place I'd hit up again and like how quick everything comes!“

“Amazing food and service. Been around a long time and still great“

“Yummy Korea BBQ at Pearlridge Mall is one of my go-to spots when I’m craving something flavorful and filling. What really sets it apart is how clean and well-kept everything is—you can tell they take pride in how they run the place. The food always tastes fresh, from the perfectly grilled BBQ chicken and kalbi to the crisp, well-seasoned sides. There’s a depth of flavor in their BBQ that you just don’t get at most other food court places. It feels like real care goes into every plate. For a quick bite, it’s surprisingly satisfying and always hits the spot.“

“Being from Texas, Brisket is a food group. The brisket was really good and just fell apart. The homemade sausage was good as well. Actually everything we order was great.

They were not selfish on the shaved ice! Definitely get one. Four can easily share it.

The service and hospitality were excellent.
We would definitely come back again.“

“I had kimchi stew and pork belly and it was really delicious! The ribs were especially soy sauce-based, perfect for Korean tastes😆 And the portions were really, really big! For those of you who are in the news, please order one to share.. The unfortunate thing is that eating outdoors can make you food for mosquitoes..ㅠㅠ Everything else was good!!“

“I like their chicken wings/drums adobo. And the pinakbet is good too. Lastly, Empanadas 😀“

“Food was amazing !! Definitely one of my favs and will be back 👍🏻☺️“

“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.“

“I can't go during the day. Newton's is the best because they're open late and you can avoid the sun. Seem laid back about 420. Can't smoke because of my job but they didn't have a problem with me having a few drinks.“
