Hawaiian Restaurants near Wahiawa, HI

“Your typical plate lunch establishment, lots of different options to choose from.

I like to grab platters and pans of different dishes from them. Larger portions at more reasonable prices compared to other restaurants nearby.“

“We’ve been taking out from Islander Drive Inn for many years. Its not a fancy place, just a simple, hometown spot, but i gave them 5 stars for 5 reasons.#1 Consistency - What i ate many years ago tastes the same every time we went including today. Im not left scratching my head figuring they changed cooks again. If they did, I didn’t notice. What makes me so sure? I eat the SAME THING every time.#2 Accuracy- They have never messed up my order. Nothing different, nothing missing, I get what I ordered. Utensils too.#3 Hot Food- I paid higher prices at places 5 minutes away from my house that left me feeling cold. Literally. Not here though.#3 Communication- They answer the phone quickly, I understand what they are saying and they understand me. Pleasant.#4 Convenience- Fast Service. Good location. Good parking. I always need medication picked up at Longs so picking up a meal at the same time makes it easy.#5 Local Business- Always support local.My personal favorite is always the Honey Garlic Chicken plate with all white rice. Nice,Sweet Honey sauce with perfect amount of garlic, not overpowering and Crispy juicy Chicken. Very flavorful. Good portions. My husband enjoys the homemade hamburger steak with onions and requested gravy all over everything. Fries are crinkle cut. They are decent. Good selection of other different plate lunches as well with pictures. If you haven’t been, we recommend this humble spot in Wahiawa.“

“A hidden gem! Super friendly people, great food with large portions! We are here on vacation from Alabama and this ranks as one of our favorite finds on the island!“

“Pretty low key, great history, decent prices, stunning flora.“

“Great food and friendly service. Don't let the location or the outside appearance scare you off, this is an excellent place for a quick and cheap meal. We fed an adult and 2 kids for breakfast for $14 total. Can't beat that anywhere in Hawaii. We'll be back.“

“Great food but I guess there's a rice shortage. Before it was more rice then meat now it's wheres the rice. Prices really have gone up and so has the food. Quality food is there at a price one of the oldest restaurant chains on the island still has some of the greatest island cuisine

Parking: Parking is a little tight especially for longer vehicles like full sized trucks

Kid-friendliness: Has a kids menu and also they offer the standard crayons and paper

Wheelchair accessibility: 2 designated parking's a little tricky but it's something“

“We are total tourists and stopped here because we wanted Poke and it was close to the USS Arizona. The staff were great with their recommendations. I had Poke nachos and my wife had the Poke bowl. Don’t think you would go wrong eating here.“

“It is everything and then some. Great experience“

“Enjoyed a fantastic evening at Toa Luau!! Very informative and fun; beautiful dancing; loved the whole atmosphere!! I can’t recommend it more highly!!“

“I found a great local place serving fantastic local food! The menu is great, I've been eating my way through it. The staff is very friendly. So if you're looking for a true taste and atmosphere of Hawaii! This is the local business to support!! I've loved every dish I've tried, but I always come back for the Lau Lau!“

“Great local place! You know it's gonna be good when it's mostly locals there that the owners know.

Our favorite dish from there were the peanut butter buns. This cannot be missed! If you like peanut butter - please don't leave workout trying it from here. Gooey delicious and divine.

The garlic shrimp were yummy. Loco moco was above average. Kalbi beef was great.“

“EVERYTHING! Was greeted and sat very quickly. The server was nice and friendly“

“Best luau we have ever been to! The entertainment, activities, and food were amazing. The traditions honored were evident. Blessings to you Mauka Warriors!“

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

“Convenient , tasty, and fast. You can't ask for more.“

“We had stumbled on Camille's Restaurant and we fell in love with the food and the owners. Recently our Mom passed away and immediately Camille's came to mind for the catering because their food feeds the soul...they cook from the heart and it translates into the flavors of the food. Everyone loved everything ...we had the Lau laus, kalua pig, BBQ chicken, and the smoked meat...everything was cooked and packed with so much love and care it was touching and it overwhelmed our hearts!!! THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!“

“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.“

“One of the best Manapua place in Aiea. Had to preorder a day prior to get the big Chicken Katsu Musubi 😂 just to prove my family and friends it’s worth the wait. After a day of wait I got it and showed it to my fams and friends and they were like ima preorder right now 😂. The other food selection is great and the workers inside were friendly and thankful everytime I come in to buy their food 🤙. Either this spot or the Manapua place in Waimalu shopping center there my favorite Manapua place in the Aiea side. Keep it up“

“AAAAAAAA+“

“would I recommend Kehau's kitchen!?!?! hell yah!!!! they are awesome people and the food is ONO!!!!! You will definitely leave super full and satisfied! my all time favorite place to eat Hawaiian food ❤“

“First time here and food was so good. Definitely recommend banana pancake and katsu curry chicken. Service was excellent l, so friendly. It’s a small place so you have to wait in line outside to get in but the line moved really quick. Would definitely come again on our next visit.“

“This is a charming location in converted old gas station. We each had a 24 oz smoothie (coconut, mango, and a couple of mixed combinations) to start while waiting for our food outside on a picnic bench. The food was one of the best we’ve had on the islands: Kahlua pork, Kalbi ribs, Teriyaki chicken, Furikake Ahi, squid luau, fresh caught fish, fish tacos, macaroni salad, tossed salad and coconut cake with pineapple for dessert. Highly recommended!“

“Hands down best food we had on Oahu. Fresh, beautiful, balanced flavors and unique menu options. We’ll be back for sure!“

“Stopped by Aloha Shrimp and it did not disappoint! The lady working there was so sweet, and the food was absolutely delicious. We tried the spicy garlic shrimp, and it was incredible. The next day, we checked out Giovanni's Shrimp Truck because of all the hype, but honestly, Aloha Shrimp was way better!“

“I went to get an ice cream the other day. Service was great and prompt. I got one scoop of mint ice cream and it was a pretty big scoop which was surprising in a good way. The only thing that I didn’t really like was the fact that I couldn’t see what the flavors were any where and I had to ask. It would be nice to be able to see the flavors without asking. It was also kind of inconvenient to get to because of construction but that isn’t the snack bars fault. Other than that no complaints and would definitely recommend!“

“Best Poke on the whole Island!!!!!!! I had the Ahi Poke Nachos on the first day of our trip to Oahu. Best poke during the whole trip!“

“Me and my family have supported this place for years.we moved to ewa this year and we still find our selves going here.i am pleased to see that they have renovated their restraunt.food is awesome and we have never had a problem with their service for over a decade.

Parking: Ever since longs closed(I AM STILL HEART BROKEN) there has been plenty of parking avilable.

Kid-friendliness: They have a lot of meals small enough for your kids.the atmosphere is kid friendly too.“

“Usually stay away from Zippys as prices have gone up and portions have gone down but finally decided to go down here on Wednesday night as late night choices are very limited here? and this was 830pm at night....

Had to use my $5 coupon so decided on a Zip Pac Deluxe for $18....but came out a little over $15 when using the coupon so wasnt bad. Had a couple eating their food in the dine in area self serve and other than that it was just me waiting for food. Only took 5 minutes for my food so that was a positive. Food was the typical zippys... Though the chicken got smaller and the teri beef looked rather slim and tiny too. Im glad the Las Vegas Zippys is doing well since I feel post covid that this local food chain is failing.... 4 stars.“

“I always do takeout bc they're not exactly located in a great area they do have some tables and chairs but again do not recommend eating there take your food home the food is good the staff is always friendly and they're open late“

“zippy's tasty food and very clean dining area“

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

“Stumbled upon the food trucks when we were in the area. Decided to try this one out, which turned out to be good. The special was a steak dish and also had the pork/chicken combo.
Everything was pretty good, however the menu song doesn’t let you know everything you are getting. I didn’t know the chicken was with noodles, the special didn’t specify the sides, etc.
In any event, enjoyed it all (even though the Mac salad is like 45% mayo)
Would definitely get the kalua pork and absolutely would get the steak special again. It was my favourite.“

“Just go there and get it.“

“Awesome zippys team. One of my go to locations for some ono grinds🤙“

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

“Jillian or Gillian was AMAZING. She was so sweet VERT accommodating the meal was cost efficient and an overall good time. Great place to go if you're into getting away from the tourist part and go to the parts where Hawaiians spend everyday life.“

“Nice selection of traditional Hawaiian favorites at reasonable prices and generous portions!“

“Great food and great service!“

“There's not much I need to say,this place has perfect food,perfect atmosphere, and perfect service.their menu is huge ranging from hawaii to American to English.you can cater here and the prices aren't to high.

Parking: There are plenty of parking spot but it could be hard to find some during happy hour.(lunch)“

“Nice local comfort food. Take your appetite with you, plenty good grinds!“

“I was over-charged by at least $10, but by not contesting cost until three weeks later, manager(?) denied bilking me. Went to eat with friend, and was too busy to think about questioning cost. Manager tabulated items separately, unseen; however, three weeks later, cost was rung up and available to be reviewed. Both times, no tabulation of items bought presented, just the charge. Yeah, my bad.“

“Only place yet I’ve felt the need to write a review for. Genuinely amazing and great price manapua and it’s my favourite food so I’ve tried many. Their haupia and fried spinach mozzarella manapua are actually addictive. The owner is also so sweet and generous and seems to truly enjoy sharing his food. He gave us three free samples and they were all amazing. All the options, of which there are many, are a great choice. God bless this establishment!!! Infinite well wishes! <3“

“Food was good, staff was polite and straight to the point. Can't complain and definitely would go back. Can't beat L&L for their prices and huge menu listings.

Parking: Front parking has a timed limit during the day at least.“

“The drinks, The Catch of the day(Marlin) The views, the ocean breeze, the service. ALL 5 STAR.“
