Walked up to order some takeaway...requested their Special Ribeye Steak Plate, medium. Hours are daily from 630a till 1100p. But that may change as they are ( finally ) expected to move to the new North School locale sometime this Summer, June or July. Wait was about 12 minutes...and the ribeye was tender and properly seasoned. It came on a bed of cabbage...different read more

Top for a quick fast meal but a bit disappointing result! Normally we love Bo's good meal fast and tasty but his time not so much. Garlic chicken- over fried - a bit hard and dry Hamburger & gravy - hamburger good gravy needs some work! Kimchee and Mac salad always very good! A little disappointed but we'll be back to try a different menu item. The people are nice parking always available read more

This place was in my Yelp bookmark for a long time. Was passing by and there was no line so good chance to give it a try. I ordered a regular Kalbi Short Ribs Combo with Scallops and my husband ordered a regular Hibachi Chicken. Heard about their Giant Fries so ordered that too. Looking at my food pic, we had a lot of carbs. As I was posting the pics, there was a sign that you can substitute the mac salad with kernel corn, toss salad, Kim Chee, cole slaw or rice. If I saw the sign or if they mentioned the substitution, I would've chosen cole slaw for me and tossed for my husband. Next time... There were 2 pieces of kalbi and 3 pieces of scallops with tartar sauce on the side with the price of $17.75. They put shredded cabbage under the kalbi so whenever places do this, I like to mix it in my mac salad...yum! The hibachi chicken came with 3 pieces for $15.50. Both plates were tasty and we enjoyed our food. The giant fries came with 5 pieces for $6.95. Thought it was okay but pricey for $1.39 a piece. The person who helped us was nice, they have LOTS of parking so it's very convenient and have a large selection of food so will be back to try something else. I heard they'll be moving soon in the old Tasty Chop Suey bldg. located on the corner of Gulick Ave. and N. School Street some time this year which is closer to where I live...yay! read more

In all the time I've lived on Oahu (well over a decade), I'd never eaten at Bob's. We decided to pick up some plate lunches while in town. Though the parking lot was busy, there were only a few of orders ahead of us so the wait wasn't long. They have a few benches that are shaded, but one was occupied by a couple of houseless dudes so customers were mainly waiting at the two benches closest to the window. We got the bbq mix plate and hibachi chicken. Plates had generous portions of protein and rice, and the mac salads were served in separate containers. Overall the food was alright; my mother in law noted that the kalbi was quite salty and husband thought the mac salad a bit heavy on the mayonnaise. I know it's out of their control who hangs out on their benches but as a woman, I would not be comfortable going here alone to get food. read more

Stopped by Bob's for lunch right before the rush. Seems like a lot of people just grab n go at this spot but my family and I hung out at the outdoor tables for lunch. I ordered the short ribs Kalbi and fried chicken. Not too bad. Pretty generic fried chicken nothing special. The kalbi was good with more of that burnt bbq flavor which I do like. Really loved the service, very accommodating. Overall 4.2/5. Would come back for lunch. read more

Stopped by this place to try some bbq. We got the super combo so that we could try a little of everything: beef ribs, baby back ribs, kalbi, teriyaki beef, and teriyaki chicken. It also comes with 3 scoops of rice and 2 scoops of Mac salad in separate containers. The portions seem generous and this combo was plenty of food for at least two people. While I don't normally get chicken, I thought the chicken was moist and very good. Probably one of the best items. We also liked the kalbi, but that's my favorite meat in general. The teriyaki beef was next best. As for the ribs, they were slathered in sauce so the beef and pork kind of tasted the same to me. There was a little bit of cole slaw underneath the meats, but it was drenched with sauce. It was good with the rice. Bob's is a bbq stand with about 10 tablespoons or so outdoors underneath a covered patio. It is not an ambient dining experience but a good place to get take-out or for a casual bbq meal. Plenty of parking available in the lot around the stand. read more

It's been many years since I've been to Bob's. At that time their malts and shakes were their popular items. Today went to pick up dinner. Parking was a hassle. So I dropped my wife off, while I waited for a parking stall. With the parking lot full you have to reverse onto Waikamilo Road to get out. I didn't get a malt or shake. Had the roast pork plate special. Three nicely slice pieces of meat and a good tasting gravy with two scoops rice . My wife said the service was friendly. Note: The Bob's building is an old wooden structure. You have to transverse two old steps to get to the counter. Be careful when going up and down these steps. Enjoy read more

This place never disappoints when it comes to delicious food at a great price. Just check out the photos--look at those massive portions! I got the special shoyu chicken for $13.50! My partner got the beef rib--I honestly forgot the price, but it doesn't matter to me. He really wanted it, and since I was paying, I just wanted him to enjoy whatever he felt like. The ladies working there are super friendly, and if you ask while waiting, they'll even give you free water. The area can get a little sketchy at certain times, and yeah, you might run into some weird folks. If that's not your vibe, you can always take your food to go. Personally, I just eat there--I'm kinda weird myself, and when I'm hungry, I'm not about to wait to get home. Will always come back here. Highly recommend! read more

Had my chance to visit this place during my trip and was very happy I did. The gentlemen that helped me was very nice and helpful and seemed like either the owner or sr employee. I had seen a few YouTube videos on the place and the food looked great. There was one group there that was eating their food that looked like locals and looked like they were enjoying their food. I asks the worker what I should try to get the good first experience and he mentioned the super platter. I was not disappointed. The place was kind of in da hood but I've found sometimes the best food comes from da hood. The super platter had two huge beef ribs, some pork ribs, some Teri beef and bbq chicken. It also came with a good amount of rice and some Mac salad. The price was very affordable for all the food you got and I'd come back again if I had the chance. read more

Was shareable for 2 people, and fed us till content when we were starving haha. Service: The service was fine. Staff called out orders as they were ready. Nothing unusual, so it was great!

Got the Teri burger and a malt shake for lunch. We did a call in order for around 11 am. We got there on a Friday, and it was decently busy for the lunch rush. It's a small shop, and a little bit hidden. We picked it up and they prepared our malts when we got there. The malt was delicious, $6 for a medium size, $7 for a large.The price is great for what you get. The burger was delicious and had simple toppings, wish it had a little more salt though. It was also $6.50 for the Teri Cheeseburger. Overall I would return again! read more

First stop after getting to Hawaii. Tried out the Chicken Katsu and the Teriyaki chicken. They both were really good. Very tasty and they came with a side of a pasta/ macaroni salad which was also really good. It all really hit the spot however the only complaint would be that there was a lot of flies while trying to enjoy your food and they kept landing in our food but I also completely understand due to the location. Would recommend! read more

Our beloved Bobs Bar B-Q-Que will be moving this year to the former Tasty chop suey this year. I didn't ask the staff when, but I know it's this year. The Bobs iconic soon will soon no longer be on Waiakamiko Street. All the food here is grilled so the burgers are yummy! I got the bobs meal today but sad that my patty shrunk, the fries was plentiful but nonetheless everything was tasty. Love their Kalbi too! Was tempted to get their old fashion malt but will visit soon for that! Service is great and a few tables to enjoy your food! read more

Don't ever go Bob's BBQ they fucking suck! Asked for a plate lunch size of chicken katsu, because a pan would be to much. I got charged $15 for 6 pieces of fucking chicken katsu! That's so wrong and disrespectful, never seen that before. Wasn't expecting the plate to over flowing with chicken, $15 for 6 pieces of chicken is so wrong. I was expecting the plate to at least be full and a good amount. So I definitely would not recommend anyone to ever eat here! read more

Hearty portions and friendly service are what I remembered from Bob's. It's located at a weird corner of a busy intersection, but it's a popular spot. It's fresh and affordable. The best thing I ate was the pork egg rolls. They tasted like big, fresh lumpia shanghai and are the best thing I tasted during my trip to Honolulu. It's not fancy, but it's good. Plenty of outdoor seating if you're hungry and like your food fresh off the grill. Don't forget to order the pork egg rolls. read more

Don't let the looks make you think it's not a good place, because it really is exceptional and clean in the kitchen . I like their fish, order Ahi dinner , Saba , short ribs combo and scallop , chicken everything tasted yummy. It doesn't get any better than this to see all the different culinary influences that have landed in Hawaii Parking is limited, but spaces open quickly.

Preordered and did an easy pickup. Lovely staff and not too busy on a Friday night. First time here and got the kalbi plate which was delicious. Normally look forward to having Hawaiian Mac salad but it was so so. Pork egg rolls were good and a great value. Last item was Teri beef saimin. Recommend either getting the plain saimin or the Teri beef on the side. All the meat here are charged on a grill so when added to the noodles, it makes the whole thing very oily and the charred extra bits permeates into the soup in a burnt taste way. read more

Stopped in and picked up a Teri Cheeseburger and fries and chocolate malt. Bobs has been located on the corner of Waiakamilo and Dillingham for as long as I can remember! It's a nostalgic place, no frills, a few open benches outside and a pretty yummy chocolate malt shake. Sitting on the bench eating my teri cheeseburger watching all the construction taking place with RAIL being built right in front of it hoping that this spot will remain through the chaos of change. The staff is always friendly and they know their regulars that frequent this place. Although prices have increased throughout the years, Im okay with my $6.50 Teri cheeseburger and $7.00 large chocolate malt, gotta support Local! Aloha read more

Bob's been here for a very long time, but I just recently started coming here and I enjoy it. Restaurant doesn't seem very clean, but it's an old place and they do have a green inspection card. Lots of outdoor tables available. Yes, outdoors, so don't expect it to be clean. The restaurant is busy. The cashier is very good at her job. Food is made to order and they have a huge menu. Good to see the variety of sandwiches as well. Very generous serving, enough to split with someone. My favorite is the combination, teriyaki beef/teriyaki chicken. Delicious marinate, meats are tender, best to eat it right away otherwise the teriyaki beef will dry out. I tried something different this time, and ordered the hibachi chicken. The marinate is a sweet ketchup based sauce, and understand this is a popular item. Although the chicken was tender, I don't quite care for this type of sauce. Mister likes the teriyaki beef sandwich, said the beef is tender, and he would order it again, good ratio with the beef. Must get the chocolate malt! So delicious!!!! Be careful driving out from the parking lot. It is located at the corner of a very busy location and cars driving in from every direction. It's very dangerous to try and make a left out, and there are cars turning right and would have trouble seeing you driving out from the parking lot. read more

I love Bob's you can smell it from down the block. Flame grilled to perfection. Idky but I haven't been here in a while. First and foremost, the I went a few days in a row. Chicken sandwich is my go to. Teri beef could have used a lil more meat but for the price it was def good enough. The Bobs hamburger combo is affordable. I got one of those and a giant burger. Let me just say this, if you are feeding 2 grown adults and budget is not an issue skip the combo. I thought to myself, we could share a drink and fries. Nope. My burger was a baby burger and giant burger is called that for a reason. I think the fries are a smaller portion as well. All in all, the price is worth it and the food is on point as long as you skip the value meal. Go Ala carte and drink your soda at home unless you want the soda and less food. Still one of the more affordable spots to eat out. Don't forget, you don't have to get Mac salad. Get the Kim chi or something else because the Mac salad is tiny. read more

As part of our recent vacation to Hawai'i, we stopped by Helena's Hawaiian Food to get a taste of…read moretraditional, authentic Hawaiian cuisine. Parking was scarce, but we managed to find a spot nearby in the neighborhood. It was a Saturday around lunchtime, and we were able to be seated immediately. We didn't really know what we were doing with the menu, so our server ordered whatever she thought we would like. She did a great job. We got the Pipikaula short ribs, kalua pig, lomi lomi salmon, poi, mac salad, and fried butterfish collar. Everything was so good! My favorite two items were the short ribs and the butterfish collar. The short ribs were so meaty with a nice firm texture and had a yummy sweet marinade. The fried butterfish collar was crispy and dripping with buttery goodness. Trying poi for the first time was such an interesting experience as well. I had always wondered what it tasted like. I had always thought it was going to be like a sweet taro paste dessert, but it's actually more like a starch and serves the same role as rice! Its neutral flavor allows you to pair it with your proteins. It adds a bit of texture and helps you feel full. I was really grateful for finally getting to try it and loved learning something new! I had a great time at Helena's. The food was delicious, and I got to learn more about traditional Hawaiian cuisine. I totally recommend it. Great vibes.

We went with what's recommended for first timers - laulau pork, you eat the leaves everything and it's filling and delicious - short ribs, some might say it's overcooked but I think it's just a different way of cooking and eating it, the pieces were thick and high quality, comes with 4 - Loki salmon, it's cured and this reminds me of ceviche or pico de gallo and salmon, it was flavorful, juicy and refreshing - comes with onions and salt to add to the complexity of the flavors - we ate it with poi, which they use as the starch to replace the rice. It's made of taro, I say give it a try for that unique and authentic experience - coconut jelly was yummy They accept cash and card Limited parking in the front, come in right before 5:30 on a weekday to beat the crowd Small family business vibes The experience lives up to the hype!

I found so many things that looked great on the menu, to include fried gizzards, boneless Kal Bi ribs, fully loaded fried rice, Mac salad and other stuff I can't recall!

The restaurant was a great place to go with a group to eat and watch sports! Our Waitress (I have to remember to get names) was a track star, she was running to and from several tables of groups to deliver food! I will go again if they reopen!

If you're visiting Hawaii with a big group, 100% recommend taking them here…read more We initially were a party of 16, and showed up without a reservation at 6pm on a Saturday. The staff was super nice about it and was able to accommodate us, with only a small request that we be out by 8pm since there was another big party with a reservation coming in. Absolutely reasonable. They sat us right away at three large tables, which gave us plenty of space for food and didn't force us to sit super close together. Menus, waters, plates, napkins, and forks were all brought out immediately, and our waiter was quick to take our order. We started with the prix fixe menu for 8-10 guests and were going to add other items à la carte, but a handful of our group accidentally went to the other Side Street location (make sure your group is all on the same page), so what we ordered ended up being more than enough. We left stuffed and with 5 boxes of food still. Edamame was nice and steamy, and large enough to easily pop the beans out with your mouth. Wish there was a bit more salt though. The farmer's salad had everything going on from citrusy to salty to crispy. Avocado had a little bit of oxidation but the capers, dressing and potato curls provided plenty of reasons to overlook it. The fried rice came in a hefty portion, with sizable pieces of bacon and sausage. The chicken I didn't realize was boneless based on the shape of the deep fry, but it was nice to freely bite into it without worrying about hitting anything with my teeth. Probably a bit too much on fried bits but still good. Pork chops had a better meat to crisp ratio in my opinion, as well as juiciness. They even came with ketchup on the side, which I love as a pairing but don't see much of at restaurants. My favorite meat item was definitely the sizzling boneless kalbi. The presentation on the sizzling plate with a side of kimchi was spectacular, and the meat was full of flavor. We also ordered yakisoba, which wasn't part of the prix fixe. Tasted good but nothing past standard expectations. We let the waiter know we had a 30th birthday at the table, and they brought a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream with a candle, and did a decent job getting the whole room to participate in the singing. It could also be the type of crowd this place attracts, since it seemed that everyone was so friendly and approachable. Thanks to the quick and consistent service, we were out in a little over an hour with no complaints.

The guava bar was delicious and flavorful and just crumbles in your mouth! Definitely one of the better guava bars I've tried. Love how crumbly it is. The salmon belly was delicious OMFG. It looks so simple and straightforward but that sht is so flavorful. It is crispy and yet soft on the inside. The salmon belly is cut into bite-sized pieces so I didn't have to worry about using a knife to cut it. I usually try salmon belly where it is usually seasoned lightly to bring out the natural flavor of the salmon, but Guava Smoked's salmon belly is just grilled in a way that makes the salmon sweet/crispy and still get traces of the salmon taste as well. It's definitely not your traditional Japanese-style way of cooking salmon belly but really just their own. I'd go back and get this again. Another thing too. I'd get this with beer. This would hit very hard with alcohol but because I don't drink I need a kombucha. The grilled salmon belly would go perfect with it. Cheers!

The owner was very friendly and took the time to recommend dishes for us, including the laulau and lechon kawali. We also ordered the BBQ short ribs. Overall, it was a good experience trying Hawaiian food, but it's just not really our type of cuisine. The laulau was quite dry, and the preparation felt more like meat that had been boiled or cooked in liquid, which isn't something I usually enjoy. The lechon kawali had a crispy pork belly texture, topped with something similar to a salsa, but it didn't suit our taste either. Unfortunately, the cabbage served with it also had some black spots, which was off-putting. The BBQ short ribs were the highlight of the meal and the dish we enjoyed the most.
