Larry Heim: Be sure to try Soul chicken and waffles. Decadent! Best chicken in Hawaii.
Harry Covair: The 3 LONGEST lines are at Fried Green Tomatoes, Big Island Abalone, and Kukui Sausages. They are located at one end of their respective rows.
Nathan Kam: Get here early for the best selection of produce. Don't forget to grab a bowl of delicious pho at The Pig and The Lady or some incredible fried chicken at Soul. Grab an Ono Pop while you're at it. :-)
nai nai: biscuits and gravy, available only on weekends. house-made & limited in number. devour em then pass out!
Darin Hagre: It's hard to go wrong with their incredible biscuits and gravy — with hearty bacon.
Megan Elizabeth: The scones are amazing. Vietnamese iced coffee is crazy. The richest, most intense coffee I've ever had. Was a bit much for my taste. The mac n cheese pancakes were good, but also super rich.

Kristen Ong: Cornflake French toast is an absolute must - crunchy outside, chewy deliciousness on the inside. Poi biscuits are skippable.
Ben Mackey: Excellent brunch spot outside of Waikiki. Dumplings of the day were the standout. If you like grits, get the breakfast congee.
Evelyn Lopez: Service was excellent and the Venison chili with cornbread was awesome! Will definitely return here during this vacation!

Kevin S Oshiro: Mixed Plate (teri beef, mahi mahi fish and fried chicken with 1 scoop of macaroni salad and 2 scoops of rice.) Along with the Mixed Plate lunch, I had a large Pepsi (or Coke) drink with it.
Bikash Mishra: A Hawaiian fast food institution. Get the fried chicken with gravy and the chili. The loco moco is solid too, get it with the egg sunny side up. The tater tots and fries left something to be desired.
Megan Anne: get the bbq or fried chicken!!! great value for those on a budget! 2 scoops of rice, meat, and mac salad ❤️
