50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Waipahu

“my favorite is well all of it, Ahi poke bowl to pick one. nom“

“The Filipino deserts app has mold. Brought these to a party and thank God it was discovered by my guests at the party. Called to get a refund and below me off as a joke. Mind you my wife and I live one hour away and demanded that we bring back the product that was purchased back to them to inspect. I have been purchasing deserts from them for over 35 years and spend a lot of money. So sad and no accountability and glad no one got sick. I will be letting the San Bernardino health dept know of this crooked establishment not following State and court health codes.“

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

“Best fast kine breakfast i had. Huge portions. The bacon and corned beef hash is mean. The scrambled eggs is cooked perfect. Braddas super friendly and fast. And not that expensive either. Been going every morning last couple days since I been working in the area.“

“Today was the first time my family and I have visited this restaurant. With such great reviews I had to come check it out for myself. I was craving Chinese food and found this place on google. When we got there we were greeted by the kind owner and his employee. We got there a bit late but were happy that they still had manapuas,rice cakes and bentos. We most definitely be back because the hospitality was great and we really appreciated how welcoming they are. Thank you for the delicious food especially the tasty fried coconut mochi balls😋☺️.“

“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 arrived at 11 am and they were already sold out on all their food except for the beef stew, so I bought the beef stew with once scoop of rice and macaroni salad and green salad, which came to $11. The server was very nice in explaining about what she got left and she gave so much that I was barely able to finish and the food was very good. This is a definitely a hidden cheap eats gem in Waipahu.“

“Easy to shop!!! Good prices too !!!!! Loved it !!!!!“

“They have great Filipino food. Always ordered the Adobo fried rice omelet with chunky meat. Did order banana lumpias, but did not receive it. (Was not charged.) It is best to call in since plates are made to order, and you don't have to wait too long.
They do have a section to dine-in.“

“Such a good experience! The portion sizes are huge! Especially the Aji ramen bowls so it’s very easy to share. We brought our vegetarian friend as well and the staff made sure to make the broth safe for her to eat. The staff was very friendly and the food came out quickly.“

“The catfish is constantly good always have that when I go there“

“I’m beginning to learn that some of the best diners are located on a golf course. This one was no exception. The menu was quite extensive consisted mainly Hawaiian, Western, Korean and Japanese. I had the “seasonal special” of deep fried butter fish bones that came in a sauce akin to Chinese steamed fish sauce with Chinese cabbage and rice. It was delicious, the sauce was on point. It was better than other butter fish I have had on the island. The other dish we tried was the Waikele fried chicken with all dark meat. That was also very tasty as well. The service was very good and the sitting area was a bit dated, but still comfortable with a nice view of the driving range.“

“Really great food at great prices! A great neighborhood place to eat at or to grab a smoothie or milk tea! 😉“

“Yes did a take out 1st thought my red hat ladies would enjoy staff was friendly and kind. Everyone had a great time. Food was delicious.“

“Awesome Service helpful staff informative great place to eat in Pizza is bomb 💣“

“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! 🤙🏼“

“You can also eat in the store, but they give you food in disposable containers. After ordering, it was so large that I had no choice but to go, so it was convenient for customers. I ordered one serving of the special set and kimchi pancake, and 2 adults and a 3-year-old child ate it together. I packed the leftover rice and side dishes well and was able to eat until breakfast. When you order a dish, you can choose four side dishes, including kimchi, seasoned seaweed, stewed potatoes, japchae, seasoned bean sprouts, seasoned cabbage, etc. All four we chose were delicious and both the ribs and kimchi pancakes were excellent restaurants. It was the most cost-effective and satisfying meal during my trip to Hawaii?“

“Great waitress, very friendly! Also, wonderful food!“

“Came here with my family while visiting Hawaii from San Francisco. I have to say, the food is amazing, I've had all kinds of pupusas corn masa and rice and made by women from El Salvador. These are some of the most delicious and authentic pupusas I have eaten. The horchata is made in a manner that I have yet to come across in another restaurant. They make It the authentic which is with Morro seeds. The service is top tier, the host is very friendly. I visited in May and have another trip next week to go to Oahu. I have been thinking about this place like crazy and am looking forward to my visit.“

“You do need to go there early in the AM. They do run out before closing. Sometimes if you know what you want it is best to order ahead of time. My husband loves the chicken and oshi sushi. They do mix the type of sushi (rice) with either musubi, maki or/and oshi. The bento comes in two sizes. Check out their website for choices.“

“**CASH ONLY** Finally got to try this place in Waipahu since heard good things about them and WOW..... This place is one of the best on island for Puerto Rican food??

Located near the Waipahu Bus Depot, its a take out only restaurant with some outdoor seats.

Came when it almost closed so there waa no Mac salad already, so ordered the Hapa Plate that came with Gandule Rice, Pastele and Bacalao Salad. Food was legot and worth the price. Too bad the hours are tough for me to come more often.... Highly recommend if youre in the Waipahu area??“

“Great service and delicious food! ❤️❤️“

“The Spanish bread at this establishment is absolutely amazing—truly a must-try that makes the trip worthwhile! However, I was a bit taken aback by the atmosphere upon entering. The lively chatter of the local tita’s filled the air, yet I couldn't help but notice some side-eye glances directed at me because I wanted to take pictures. While I understand the desire to maintain a certain ambiance, I was hoping to capture the experience so I could share it and encourage others to visit your fantastic bakery!

Despite the somewhat unfriendly environment, the highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Spanish bread—it absolutely stole the show! However, I believe the customer service could use some improvement to match the incredible quality of the food. Overall, I encourage fellow foodies to make the trip for the delicious bread, but I hope to see a warmer welcome on my next visit!“

“They can customize their menu according to your wishes too!“

“Just beware that this place gets a CRAZY amount of orders on weekends and any holidays. You're going to be waiting like 30+ minutes and up to 40 minutes. They say it's because there are so many people making phone orders on those days. So you might as well get a drink or coffee and get ready to be patient. They are a small team and you can see they probably only have like 3 or 4 people cooking. The food is great and it is a nice place to relax and dine-in at. But just know you WILL be waiting a long time on weekends.“

“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.“

“I had a Baby shower on Feb 23 2025
For 135 guest. Held at Tech Park Mililani. Russel the owner is excellent to worked with. Any questions u have he gets back to u in a timely matter. He follows up and any needed adjustments he follows thru.We picked 5 main entree..noodles..garlic chicken..beef broccoli..shrimp tempura..and rice ..Mac salad..toss salad came with the entrees also included the paper goods. Because I had 135 guest I had free delivery with a server. They set up and breakdown in timely matter. Everyone enjoyed the food. Excellent service..would definitely recommend them“

“This is the only place in Oahu. I go for Thai food. I’ve been living often on in Thailand for the last seven years and this food is pretty close. Currys are very ono, the staff are very nice and take very good care. The Thai iced tea is worth the caffeine rush.“

“I have lived in Northern Thailand for over 15 years and my husband is Thai, so I feel its safe to say I have tasted some amazing Thai food over the years. Thai Village ranks right up there with the best of the best. The Larb Pork tastes just as my favorite street vendor made for me in Mae Hong Son province. Staff are friendly and the food is AMAZING. I definitely recommend it.“

“Hey gotta say I really enjoyed my butter garlic shrimp ramen!! Bok choy, bean sprouts, lotsa egg and even Kim chee!! And the shrimp was yummy! 🤤😋“

“Auntie was so thoughtful of our kids, super sweet and generous with the ginger! We've ordered delivery a few times, but I'm happy to know that going in is a great experience too.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space and a friendly atmosphere make this place great for kids. There are also little cartoon strips along the windows for kids to look at while they wait.“

“Is Soo good“

“My sister in law is How I've found this Small Cafe. They are Awesome!!! The Food is Fantastic and They are So Nice!!!!! The Only Reason Why I Only give 4 Stars is because it feels So Castrophobic when I go up in there. But other than that I'm their Customer for Life!!!!!!! ?????????????????????????“

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

“Always friendly help. A place to meet neighborhood friends for drinks and, for the athletic, darts. Service not the fastest, but that's the joy of that long time dining/drinking place. Been going there for the past twenty plus years.“

“I come here every time I visit Oahu. Food is absolutely authentic and if some of the other ppl in the reviews would have ever been to Thailand they knew. Would always recommend without a doubt - prices are ok, taste is great, size very good (for an European). Will be back ❤️“

“I chose take out, so I can only speak about the food itself, not the service. I ordered the vermicelli with spring roll. It was okay! I thought the nuoc Cham (sauce) was somewhat bland, and I added my own fish sauce at home. The vegetables were fresh and the noodles were a tad over cooked. The spring roll filling was tasty, but the wrapper was a little stale. It felt like it had been sitting out for a little. Nonetheless, the food was good! I would be willing to try the food at the restaurant or a different menu. :)“

“The catfish is constantly good always have that when I go there“

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

“My new favorite restaurant! I'm so happy to finally find fantastic Mexican food!!! I will definitely be eating here often!!! The chips and salsa are delicious!!! Chimichanga was perfect! Great staff too!!! #fatgirlhappy :)“

“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.“

“Got a little taste of home here while on vacation! Seriously worth the drive to eat here and can enjoy the outlets before or after. Nice seating area and had other food trucks. Keep in mind it's located in the back side of the outlets and you won't be disappointed on the food. Prices are perfect compared the other places with a lot of food!“

“I would recommend making a restaurant here in Las Vegas. Genki is a staple back home in Hawaii, and no sushi place here is up to par. I feel like you folks will make a lot of money, especially because of the amount of locals here.“

“So happy that you're open...awesome food..husband tried it for the 1st time today...he said hands down the best... Love the tacos♥️👍 We'll be back 😎“

“They never have lechon ready, had only a few dishes was around 730am never have to much selection and the employee that helped me had that look like hurry up and order not even a smile and she talked to the other employee about me because they think I don't understand the language . I ended up going to Elena's I just felt they don't need my business . I worked for a company, My self I away great people with a smile that why people come back , in the Philippines the service is good and they treat you well .“

“Great food, good service , comfort food“

“This was a take-out, so other than getting the right order and meeting the time they say would be ready for pickup. This restaurant has been in this location since they opened up in that location, but remember them located where Highway Inn is and them needing a bigger space, so there you go, another oldie but goodie food place.“

“Great food and prices. A must if your in the area. highly recommend if your in the mood for lechon and your other favorite Filipino dishes.“

“We stopped here to eat lunch after going grocery shopping. We ordered two hambuger entrees - the mushroom and swiss selection. I ordered mine without a bun and with a side of sauteed mushrooms also. The other had the bin and a side salad.

Our waiter was very attentive and checked on us for drink refills and if we needed extra napkins. Enjoyed our meal here.

This location doesn't honor the Chili's reward club points, so I wasn't able to gain any points for our meal or use a free drink reward that I had. Fyi.“

“Went before da lunch rush. Had the katsu curry special of day $12.99. Was big portions, but the curry sauce wasn't on the katsu (but they gave katsu sauce too). I asked the guy if can put curry on the katsu \\u0026 he did! It was the counter girls first day \\u0026 she didn't really have a trainer so took Lil long but I gave her a tip anyway bc she was just thrown in front \\u0026 trying. Was so big I saved half my plate!“
