Restaurants near Waimanalo

“Stopped in for some lunch with my wife. Excellent service, excellent food. Great place.”

“Delicious food (fries are amazing!), staff was friendly and helpful! Cute place!!”

“Wonderful and friendly. The waffles are some of the best I’ve ever had. The Kailua Pork Quesadilla was amazing as well. Manu was so friendly and after a nice conversation he gave a little speech and blew the conch as a blessing for our recent marriage.”

“Some of the best bowls I’ve ever had!! We got the açaí and pitaya and they were both so refreshing, especially after our hike at the Makapu’u trail. I’ve already decided we have to come back on our next trip to Oahu!”

“BBQ Porto Sandwich was amazing!”

“I visited for the first time in February of 2023 and loved it. We didn't have an agenda other than to relax. Getting ready to make our second trip next month. Is it fancy? No, but the peace is worth more than gold. If you're looking for a peaceful and relaxing stay....wait, why am I telling you all about this place? I'm sure you can find a better place to suit your needs and desires. This probably isn't what you're looking for. I hear that the military resort in Korea is nice. You should check it out.”

“Good food pretty cheap and filling
A real old dive for a day in driving from beach to beach.
Sweet people, meets or exceeds every expectation if you have realistic expectations.
Cute and fun.”

“a longtime established place great people food and karaoke..always a blast”

“Great spot to eat, drink, and hang out on the beach. Good food and drink choices, and service was great. Cool atmosphere with the restaurant, bar, pool table, couch and TV, rental center, and shoppette.”

“Really great tasting tacos but I thought they were a bit small. It’s a taco truck with low overhead so for $18 one would expect the portions to be more generous.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩 my family loves stopping by Dave’s Hawaiian Ice Cream after a day at the beach. Faves are the honeydew mochi, ube, and mint chocolate chip 🤙🏼 it’s true, the girl serving ice cream def has a ‘tude but very easy to overlook. The ice cream tastes great no matter who’s serving it.”

“The reason we went to Jack in the box is because, on 1st year anniversary, we were to Hawaii and we spent all of our money and the only thing you can afford for the last day, was he Jack in the box. So we decided to go back again for a 30th anniversary. I still love the tacos.”

“Good breakfast special but needs to add black tea to menu”

“The matcha latte at this shop is very delicious. It's the right matcha, rich and fragrant. The ice cream and soft serve are also very good. Very delicious as well”

“No waiting early morning dining! Great service! Yummo food!”

“Hands down my absolute favorite food of my trip to Oahu! Came back multiple times, absolutely everything on the menu is 🔥!!”

“These guys take creative to a whole new level! Well done!”

“A hole-in-the-wall place with a ~really~ good burger and fries. Probably the best on Waikiki, or at least the best I've found so far. Generous portion sizes, too. The only knock I can give is it's not "fast" food, like you might expect for a hole-in-the-wall place: Burger was (perfectly) made to order, so it took around the same amount of time to make as it would in a sit-down restaurant, but other than that, it was great. If you're looking for a burger you can grab and take to the beach, this is the place to get it.

Parking: Only parking is what you can find in the garages on Waikiki.”

“Don’t let the exterior fool you, this is no greasy spoon. We had a MARVELOUS breakfast here. All of the food was beyond compare, budget-friendly priced, and the staff is exceptional. Highly recommended. We will be back whenever we are in Honolulu.”

“Craving tempura, my husband found this highly rated restaurant, so we had to try it out. Located in Stix ASIA, one of several Asian restaurants in the basement of Waikiki Shopping Plaza.
Servers were attentive, yet not overbearing. We had fun teasing with our waiter, thankfully he was a good sport.
I ordered the Shrimp Tempura and the other two had the Kiki tempura bowls.
My husband thought his were greasy, but all were very good.”

“The food, wine, service, and atmosphere are amazing. I dine here every 2 months and I am always very impressed. Thank you for your continued excellence!”

“We RAN to Waffle and Berry after the zoo. We showed up 15 minutes before closed and they were quick to calm us. As long as we ordered by 2 minutes before close, we would be served. And then they showed up with a snack plate for our toddler. He absolutely loved it!! We absolutely loved our dessert. Crispy, warm waffle. Sweet ice cream and berries. Unbelievably welcoming environment.”

“TLDR: Melissa is AWESOME! But, if you are gluten free (ie no soy sauce with wheat) or allergic to mushrooms, you can’t eat here.

My husband and I combined have those allergies and Melissa was very kind to ask the chef if we could be accommodated. Unfortunately it wasn’t possible. Melissa was so respectful of how she informed us - aaaaaaand then offered us a complimentary cocktail (which was on point) and a reservation down the road at a nice restaurant that she knew could accommodate our allergies!

I don’t envy her for effectively having to kick us out, but she (and the entire staff) were so gracious to us. Thank you Melissa!”

“WONDERFUL Experience! A truly great time for the whole family. Last night was a fantastic performance enjoyed by ALL, from 6 weeks to 90! The performers really make you feel like part of their extended Hawaiian Family❤️👍👍👍”

“Our son took us there when we were visiting. Best coffee I have ever had. Never bitter”

“This coffee shop is a gem and quickly became the highlight of our trip! The owner was so welcoming to us and our baby, it has truly left such a wonderful memory for us in Oahu. We went back again and again, day after day! The Açaí bowl, Pitaya bowl, scones, cookie and coffee were all so good. The owner even came out just to say goodbye to us on our last day on the island, it was truly heartwarming! We will miss Pai Cafe so much!”

“Very good food.”

“The service was great. Busy spot with a bunch of good options nearby. The liliko’i pancakes is an absolute winner. The crunch stuff on top and the pineapple in the bites with the amazing passion fruit sauce was giving face melting”
