“I love stopping here:) my favorite dish is the panko crusted mahi with lilikoi tarar sauce. So good! Great vibes too. Lots of seating, generally nice service. Love the title too?Kid-friendliness: Kid table and a place to read books while waiting for food! Love bringing my young niece and nephew here for a loco moco:)“
“A must stop if you're on the North Shore! We weren't sure what kind of shop we were looking for, so we passed it up and missed the parking across the street, but there are a few parking spots right around the corner with a path that leads to the shop. We purchased the chocolate chip and mochi loaves. They were both really delicious; the mochi was super moist. If we were to go back, I would definitely get the mochi loaf again. I may have to check out their shipping options.“
“Ordered the Lilikoi(passion fruit) and Lychee with mochi, sweet cream, li hing mui powder. Came out to $6.50(it's pretty cheap). Service was amazing, friendly. Their card reader or something wasn't working, so they only accepted cash today but that's definitely fine. The customers before us seemed to be giving the workers a hard time(at least in my opinion) but the workers were amazing. Their shave ice was delicious! Soft ice, natural not-too sweet syrups, Delicious mochi balls, and the sweet cream is a must have. They had a quant seating area both in the front of the place and in the back. The back overlooked the river so it was a nice vibe out there. Overall will definitely come again to try out more of their flavors and toppings!“
“If you are looking for a quick bite and an authentic example of poke, this is the place to go. Here we tried not only your typical Ahi poke, but also the vegan Poke. Both were truly exceptional and I highly recommend this place to everyone.“
“We weren't particularly hungry but had been craving burgers. After reading the reviews, we stopped and fell in LOVE! We HIGHLY recommend both of the burgers we ordered. For those who enjoy guacamole in their bugers, Shem is the one with delicious crisp bacon at every bite. The Paniolo burger was a beautiful balance of the sweet and savory with two onion rings perfectly stacked on top of a pineapple slice with melted cheese. Mouth watering! We shared their Crazy fries, which reminded us of animal fries from In and Out. Grilled, caramelized onions, their house sauce (Mayo, mustered, and ketchup with a slight kick), melted cheese on top of fries.Mahalo Seven Brothers!Parking: Next to Longs Drugs“
“north shore's favorite açaí spot! locals along with tourists know that hale'iwa bowls is a must-have when going to north shore. from the fruits to purée's, everything is so refreshing and tasty. the base itself is always dense, and topped with the perfect ratio of fruits and granola. the bowls are never skimpy and in my opinion, the small is enough for even 2 people the place is pretty small, as it's a walk-up type of service so i'd say it's pretty easy to miss! but it's such a nice place to stop by for a quick refreshment. there aren't a lot of seating outside, so feel free take it to the beach or walk around! @haleiwabowls overall: 5/5 order: - two (2) small, hapa açaí bowls parking: - in back lot behind the building - street parking nearby“
“We drove north in a rental car and ate shave ice. It was crowded, but the rotation was good so it didn't take long. It would have been better to get the large size and add red beans, mochi, green tea, and condensed milk. That's all I failed, it was fluffy and delicious.Mr. Matsumoto was also at the store.Parking: I was able to find it right awayKid-friendliness: There were a lotWheelchair accessibility: There is a large parking lot in the back“
“The shrimp was excellent! The rice was good. They made special accommodations for my son who cannot have any dairy products to cook his shrimp without dairy products when we talked to them about his food allergy. I love that they went above and beyond to accommodate him. The only thing I would have changed it that the shrimp came in the shell and the seasoning was on the shell. You lose the seasoning when you remove the shell to eat it.The parking is a little crazy there. It's shared with several other food trucks and you can only park there if you're eating at one of the food trucks. Also, bathrooms in the area are very limited and it's hard to find a public restroom. There is a port-o-potty in the parking lot but it was bad!!! I would put it in the second worst bathroom I've ever been in. It hadn't been serviced in forever and the waste was all the way up to the toilet seat lid. The smell was horrible and it was disgusting. I didn't let this affect my review because it is a food truck area and I don't know who is responsible for the bathroom and it didn't directly affect the food truck. Thankfully, the food truck provided hand sanitizer because that was incredibly disgusting and there was nowhere to wash my hand afterwards. It is an emergency only bathroom!!“
“For one, the burgers are delicious. I almost went back for a second one.There's plenty of seating. Go next store to the supermarket for a beer or bottle of wine, and you're all set to watch the sunset while muching on some great eats. Just lovely!“
“First time here and will definitely be back when I come back to North Shore.Everything was fresh tasting, flavorful and delicious. Prices are great too. You get plenty of food! Would definitely recommend!Dietary restrictions: Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options!“
“Surf N Salsa has the best tacos hands down! Located in Haleiwa.I had fresh caught Mahi taco and shrimp taco. Make sure to get a side of their guac and chips. The 8 oz is way too much for two people.I had their Cucumber Lemonade. It was great!“
“Really dig this place! They have gluten free options like homemade bread for sandwiches and cookies!! Loved their monster cookie and also got a pina colada smoothie. The girl who worked there was also super sweet. Highly recommend Waialua Bakery!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options!“
“My family and I really enjoyed our experience here. I have always been one to stick to places that I really enjoyed in the past. This way, I know I will get great food and service. However, one of my daughters insisted we try Aoki's Shave Ice, so we agreed. This was the first time for most of my family, and all of us really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this spot! The shave ice and toppings are amazing, and the price is reasonable.“
“I had the pork chop rice and plantains, it was all cooked to perfection! The service was friendly and they have a nice little outdoor dining spot with plants surrounding. Also indoor seating. Lots of great drinks like the kola champagne india. This place is a gem!“
“Excellent food and vibes! Cute little outdoor patio under umbrellas and a big tree. Mini poke with spicy garlic tuna was hands down some of the best poke I’ve ever had! Takoyaki was delicious too ? workers were super friendly and nice. Ingredients were fresh and you could tell.Parking: There’s no parkingKid-friendliness: Environment very kid friendly :)“
“I had a wonderful experience with Malai Thai. I had the garlic pepper shrimp. Very generous portions for the pricing. We also got an order of the basil fried rice with chicken which also was fantastic. Got multiple meals for the two of us from these two orders. Some of the best Thai food I’ve had since being in Thailand. Very fresh tasting and they cook it all fresh. They give you a little buzzer so if your group is at a different truck you can sit and wait for your food there. Definitely check them out after a long day on the beach!“
“The food is good. I wish the ice cream was throughout and not just on top. The flavour would have been better. The crepe is very neutral. For a dessert crepe, it could have been sweeter. Despite this, they are the best crepes I have had on island so far.“
“The taste of my dad shedding tears of emotionNumber 4: Spicy Garlic. It's so delicious that I order it all the time, so I haven't tried the other menu items yet.Depending on the season, there may be a lot of flies on the outside chairs.“
“Since we went during Christmas season, the owner was gone some days/opened later. So after 3 tries, we finally went when it was open!! My husband chatted with him in Portuguese and he was so friendly! Everything was pretty good; we of course got feijoada and stroganoff! Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a unique lunch amongst the Kahuku food trucks!“
“and! A great restaurant with steamed hamburgers! Needless to say, the thick patty and taste are definitely Hawaii's number one! I've tried Paradise and Teddy, but this is the best for me! ? The atmosphere of the store is also clean... I ate a lot from the shrimp truck on the way up, so I ate without even feeling hungry, so why was this? It's so unrealistically delicious! I highly recommend you visit this house!“
“We originally pulled into this driveway because of a sign that said Sweet Corn.But ironically, we ended up getting everything but sweet corn!This Kula Shaved ice stand is next to the Kuilima Farm.We were contemplating trying this place when a customer told us it was sooo good and that her local friend told them to try this place. And she added they use real fruit to flavor the ice. That hooked us and so we tried it.Man, I thought Island Vintage Shaved Ice was my favorite place, until I took a spoonful of this shaved ice.The flavor fills your tastebuds and it is just amazingly delicious!!! We tried both the Lilikoi and the rainbow mix of Strawberry, Mango, and Blueberry on another day. All flavors were amazing but Lilikoi is my personal favorite.Pricing is high at $13 (Island Vintage is $11) and this one doesn’t come with mochi toppings for free (we never got toppings). But the flavor is unmatched and they also add frozen yogurt inside.Parking is found anywhere in front of this stand or the other fruit stands.There is bench seating all over.I highly highly recommend this place as the best shaved ice I have ever had on the island!!!!“
“The girls at Pupukea were friendly and fast! Our meals were prepared perfectly and were actually the BEST food we ate on a week vacation with restaurants running up to $200 a meal! We’ve decided finding the right taco truck is huge in Hawaii and THIS is it.“
“Stopped by after a visit to Pōkaʻī Bay Beach Park. The woman that helped us with our order, Noi, was so warm, friendly & patient with answering all our questions. I loved that you can pick 2 bases - I picked tossed greens & fried wonton chips. The poke was great. I ordered the Hawaiian stew for our daughter, and that was ono too!“
“It's super delicious and reasonably priced!The plates are large and filling, and the famous chocolate haupia pie is delicious!Even though it's cream and chocolate, why isn't it so boring? ! I ate it the next day too ^_^And we also got breakfast bread and malasadas!Everything is delicious! If I had to say, I was a little disappointed that there was no latte! That's all! !“
“5-26-23 since we were in Wahiawa I asked hubs the driver if after my brows appointment if we could come here. A car was parked right in front and the back parking was full. You might need to find street parking.So glad we came. There was a bunch of people enjoying theirs on the outside side bench and a family of 3 before me.I ordered two regular sized with honey dew, strawberry and vanilla. Very pretty colors and equally delicious and refreshing afternoon treat.The taste is like happiness. Still reminds me of guriguri on Maui. Not boldly flavored but just enough to give your tongue and roof of your mouth a happy dance.Can't wait to bring Doc here so she can enjoy this cold treat too.“
“This place has great food and cool atmosphere for the perfect winning combination. Stopped in with a few friends visiting Oahu for the first time and what a difference it is getting away from the hustle of Waikiki. Sat and enjoyed some music by LAVA and awesome food. U need to check this place out“
“It was a calm, cool Friday night. Something Mysterous was lirking in the mist. Air of antisapatioin, exitement filled Haleiwa. A Ship was docking @ Stonefish Grill. That Vessel christened " GHOSTSHIP" Dropped achor & unloaded the goods for all N. Shore to enjoy. Thank You Stonefish, staff ,security,all who made 3/15/24 the night to remember!!! WiTchDokTa Mr Ghost, Donny Fingazz, The Da Markzman, Mr DJ."Keepn Da Kuntry Fun(K)"“
“Right in the beginning of the north shore or at the very end depending on which route you take. The ladies handling out samples of nuts and coffee are nice and pleasant. The fam and I walked over and got an acai bowl and it was cool and tasty.“
“Konos Restaurant is truly amazing! From the moment you step in, the warm ambiance welcomes you. The staff's genuine friendliness adds an extra layer of charm to the dining experience. The menu boasts an array of delectable dishes that cater to diverse tastes. Each bite is a delightful journey of flavors, leaving you craving more. Konos is not just a restaurant; it's a delightful haven where excellent food and lovely staff create unforgettable memories.“
“[Ray's KIWAE BROILED Chicken] Haleiwa specialty! ? Deeply flavored and juicy furifuri chickenIf you come to Haleiwa, try Ray's Furifuri Chicken! ?It's no exaggeration to say that I went to the North Shore for this reason.I'll be there as soon as it opens, but I'll have to wait about 40 minutes for it to be baked.・Whole Chicken Chopped $16.00With a very strong flavor and smoky aroma, this is definitely drinkable. Chicken is tender and juicy. Grilled chicken is definitely different! ?After returning to the hotel, I will of course have fun with alcohol.I want to eat bueno chicken lol“
“PAPAYA SEED DRESSING. I'm just going to leave it on that........ If you are ever craving a sandwich and you're heading to the North Shore, stop by Storto's and get yourself a big filling sandwich with Papaya Seed dressing in it. NO REGRETS. They also have a shop in downtown so if you're craving and don't want to drive out that far, there's a closer one. I've been to this location before and let me tell you, I feel so content afterwards. Parking can be a little hard during peak times. They have maybe like 3 stalls in front IF people park nicely. There is a table outside where you can enjoy your sandwich. Luckily the last time I went, we had the whole table to ourselves and with a chicken as well. If you're not sure what you want, you can always ask what they recommend since they know what ups. They only take cash. If you have a big order or if you don't want to wait, you can always call in ahead of time.“

“Tasty Jerky Hawaii, located in the Mililani Shopping Center near 24 Hour Fitness, is a definite hidden gem for crispy beef jerky connoisseurs. We've been enjoying their wide selection of onolicious delights for quite a while but our absolute favorite is the Hawaiian jerky. If you like it hot...the Korean BBQ style sizzles with savory chili pepper taste. We also enjoy the popular black pepper, teriyaki, and char siu flavors. With its friendly service, convenient location, and wide variety of seasonings, your family and friends will definitely welcome these tasty treats any time of the year. In fact, you will love the treats so much that you'll probably become a regular customer like me! Hope to see you there soon!“
“My favorite food is Thai Chicken Fried rice and I've been meaning to try this place for a while. Finally went today for lunch before work and I love it! The portioning vs pricing ratio is great, flavor is fantastic, and there are so many added toppings. This is definitely top 3 on the island for me now, will be coming back! Customer service was great as well, the lady that greeted and served me was very friendly!“
“Banh Mi & Boba Cafe is a little hole in the wall type of restaurant. I had the pork Banh Mi, Spring Rolls and a Taro Boba.The Banh Mi was pretty good, a decent serving size and the sandwich tasted pretty fresh. The spring rolls were made from scratch and were awesome.I would come back here for sure to try out the lemongrass chicken.“
“Dropped in on Friday night for a pizza which they ran out of the large (16") sizes. Good thing I wanted the Detroit style. It looked like there were only two people working so it did take 5 minutes or so to be greeted and have my order taken but they were decently busy and the pizza was great. Worth the wait and I'll definitely be back. Also, I went with the Hangry Hawaiian which was perfect since I enjoy spicy foods. Highly recommend if you like spicy pizza.“
“I like to think of myself as a smoothie connoisseur and the Aloha smoothie is so GOOD plus the chocolate chip banana bread was great too. Lines get long so be patient! There is also a sitting area where you can relax before heading to the beach, read a book, or if you just finished a morning tour.P.S. bathrooms are located on the right side of the building keep walking and you will see a restroom sign!“
“What a spectacular food cart! The crepes were absolutely delicious and the gentleman working was so friendly and personable. The prices were very reasonable and the portion size was huge! He really loaded it up with fresh fruit for us! Thank you for giving us such a great start to vacation!“
“Haleiwa Seafood & Grill impressed me with their seafood platter. The coconut shrimp, fried mahi, and calamari were all incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right. I definitely recommend trying this dish if you're in the area. The service was friendly and quick, which made the whole vibe even better. And I have to mention the Hawaiian Sun smoothie—it was excellent and added a refreshing touch to the meal. Overall, this food truck is a must-visit and I’ll be back!“
“So delicious, and not nearly the wait for the "must go to" place next door. No comparison, H'onos is SO much better. The garlic shrimp is my go to, and you can get 5 extra shrimp (same flavor) for 3 dollars. Accepts cash only.“
“I've always wanted to visit this shack. They have fast and friendly service, and their acai bowl was delicious. A size small was the perfect amount for 1 person. Parking is pretty much road parking. Many people park across the street even though it says no parking, and carefully cross the road. Would stop by again next time we're visiting the North Shore.Parking: Side of the road parking, no lotKid-friendliness: Area for games and to hang out“
“What a quaint bakery in North Shore. Reminds me of being in my childhood large eat in down home country kitchen in North Carolina watching my Mom make crust, homemade butter, breads and so forth...The aroma was captivating in Hi Pie, took me to my childhood.When i walked in, I saw on 1 counter the prepping of individual size pot pies with homemade pie crust and pie filling and on another counter a quiche that was being sliced. In the small showcase there was a PINEAPPLE CREAM PIE, carrot sheet like cake with lil coconut on top, blueberry cheesecake and a few other things. I was extremely surprised and full of smiles. Just a really feel good and clean place. The lady who helped me was wonderful and appeared to be kind.... again adding to the atmosphere of my childhood and happy place. I ordered a slice of PINEAPPLE CREAM PIE and a chicken pot pie.I was so in the atmosphere of Hi Pie that i forgot to take pictures. When i tell you this place reminded me of being in our country kitchen full of everything homemade and happy!!! Hi Pie is the place!* PINEAPPLE CREAM pie: umh umh umh... delicious just simply delicious. The slice was overly generous, the taste was outstandingly amazing. The crust is beautifully buttery without being a mouth full of oils... the cream is fluffy and leaves a toasty pineapple taste that makes you smack your lips. (Only have picture of the pie after i ate 2/3s)* Individual size chicken pot pie: heated it up for 20mins on 350. My hubby loved it. He said the crust was flakey and flavorful. The pie filling was seasoned well and yummy. (Only have picture of the uncooked pot pie because my hubby started eating before i could take pictures).I belv Hi Pie is now my favorite bakery in Oahu!A must visit for every visitor to Oahu!“
