The staff came up to us and made sure we had eaten everything we wanted and made sure to save a plate of pupus for us while we were taking pictures! Highly recommend Keneke’s!“

“This place is a hidden gem on lower Lewers Street. A pain to get to, no easy parking, and is up two flights of outside stairs. BUT THE FOOD is great, the atmosphere is fun, and the view from the balconey offers all of lower Lewers personalities you could watch!

Parking: take your best shot at all the ONE WAY street parking ;-)“

“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.“

“Good food and staff Great service“

“The hospitality from check in to service at the table is always consistently excellent and the recommendations from the servers, always so good! The macadamia nut crusted mahi and the taro hummus were amazing and we loved the refreshing the coconut lime sorbet for dessert. Can't wait to go back and try more!“

“Awesome food and cocktails“

“One of our favorite things when traveling is discovering some hole-in-the-wall restaurant that knocks our socks off....that was tonight #bestfoodever“

“Beautiful venue, fantastic and attentive staff, and amazing high-level food. Highly recommend! Having more plants dispersed through the space could warm it a bit more but other than that we wouldn’t change anything. Amazing all-around. Special thanks to our server, John C, who helped make our dinner experience there exceptional.“

“Never had I imagined eating a hot dog with Kalua pig amd onion rings on it or anything else as I eat my hot dogs with only mustard and relish! Decide to give this place a try and must say the hot dog I ordered called "common kings" was very delicious! Definitely gonna go back for more! It isn't a regular bot dog bun that they use either, which make this hot dog so tasty and unique! The only warning is that it is a little messy due to the size, but totally worth the mess!“

“Great dining experience and service“

“Thank you for delicious food and hospitality from three haole’s! Mahalo!“

“My first time here after seeing them on tv. So glad the worker tied the bag of my 3 plates tightly and that they use strong plastic containers. I took a sharp turn and my bag flipped to the side. My food shifted a little in the container, but at least it didn’t spill out or leak out of the containers. Love the hamburger steak with crispy onions! Omg, the special parmesan chicken was huge!! This was ono too. Will definitely go back there again. ❤️“

“Ono poi. Looking for Kulolo.“

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of place for my toddler to play and he loved the food we had coconut shrimp delicious and chicken fried rice both were equally delicious“

“One of my favorite places to eat. Always good service & great food.l“

“Very authentic Hawaiian food. We loved the owner who wasnt trying to sell things. When we were Going to order a special dish, he gave us some to taste first to make sure we actually like it and not waste it. I really liked this attitude. The prices are reasonable. The combination plate is a good choice to try out the different traditional dishes.“

“chicken katsu and all rice“

“A popular shop frequented by locals and businessmen in the area.
Plate lunches are affordable, filling and delicious!
Eat-in is also available.
BBQ chicken mini and beef short rib mini, 2 pieces were enough for 3 adults.
There is no parking lot, so I parked at a nearby Book Off.“

“Fish taco’s, moco loco, and mai tai“

“If you are REALLY HUNGRY, this place will serve you well. I ordered a bbq chicken dish, there three large chicken meat with some veggies, macaroni, two scoops of rice. Quality wise it was OK, not very special but not bad at all. Just a bit salty...“

“Great food, friendly staff, location, location, location!“

“Quite honestly it was one of the best food experiences of my entire trip to O'ahu, even though it was just an emergency dinner after a very long hike - I was very hungry. The place has a local climate attached to it with friendly people you can talk to and listen to their stories. Prices are really good for the amount of meat you get and its very tasty. Only the mac n cheese wasn't that great for me but I guess it's just not my thing.“

“Ono poi. Looking for Kulolo.“

“Value, amount of food for the money, is good, but the quality is uneven.

Service is outstanding: extremely fast from order to ready-to-eat.

Double cheeseburger deluxe (smash) and mixed plate are yummy. Fries (crinkle) are surprisingly good and generous. Soft drinks are fairly priced. However, I’d avoid any of the fried foods, saimin, and beef curry (pick beef stew instead).

The area gets somewhat sketchy after dark, so be aware of your surroundings.“

“This is a \\\"condensed\\\" or \\\"Express\\\" version of L\\u0026L with a limited menu. Their hours are 6:30am to 1:30pm. They're located in the First Insurance Company building on the corner of Ward Ave. and S. Hotel St.“

“Awesome 😎 Grinds will come back for sure and great service the Garlic Chicken was Superb 😋🤙🏽Can’t wait to try other dishes 🤙🏽💯“

“Excellent food and great staff“

“If you're ever looking to grab lunch on campus, I recommend checking out L&L at Paradise Palms. The food was mostly what I expected in terms of standard plate lunch, but the mac salad was especially great. The workers were also very friendly!“

“I like local restaurants and L&L is good with reasonable price. Chicken Cutlets is a little bit oily but Loco Moco is very good. Don’t expect super clean tables and chairs.The loco moco here is cheap, the amount is so large that you can't finish it (regular), and it's delicious. During lunch time (starting around 11:30am), there are a lot of locals working in the area, so it gets crowded, so the later hours are often empty.“

“Our numerous visitations/food orders from here are hardly disappointing. Food is prepped well with great menu options, poke is fresh & tasty, service is fairly quick and always friendly. We usually order the Saigon Crunch, pasteles or smoked Kalbi plate with extra large shrimps. They do not skimp on their portion size and their tuna-mac salad is excellent! Inside dining may be a tad noisy so we take out, find a table next to the water and ENJOY!“

“We got our food off of DoorDash, I’m a local and I am very picky with my Hawaiian style food. 10/10 with the laulau it’s not just pork it is real laulau with fish in it not too much kalo leaf I love the stem and they had that. Hot and ready to eat! My husband got the loco moco, now it’s his place to go next time we visit. He said it was the best loco moco he had in his life! My son is not a pork eater but loved the Kalua pork and rice. I’m picky with my chicken long rice I would say 8/10 cause it needs more ginger and green onion but it was still soooo good! We got kanak attacks after eating it. The poi just want to add in here is a bit too runny for me but still good. 👍🏻 and the last part the lomi salmon that one was a bit too salty but still 10/10 ! This is true local food and I will be back to try the other plates!!!“

“Wonderful experience, Korean Steak entree was amazing and Fresh Fish entree with macadamia nut pesto was delicious. Excellent service and vibe. Highly recommend.“

“They had a lot of things to add to my tofu poke bowl. The sauces were clearly marked and there were several options, and I loved being able to add wasabi, dressings, brown rice, crunchy onions and garlic, edamame, corn, onions, and more. It was a meal that I felt good about ordering and eating.“
