    Hawaiian chop steak made with ribeye.  Very good.

    I enjoy finding new places to eat for lunch and I'm glad I found this cute little lunch wagon located right across the Kapalama post office in Kalihi. So I came here on two separate occasions at a little after 1pm. On my first visit I ordered the hawaiian chop steak which I really enjoyed. I'm glad I was able to try it at a discounted price during their Super Bowl special cause now I know I would definitely buy it again at their regular price. They use ribeye steak so it was really tender, not chewy and hard to swallow like the ones they serve at other fast food places. Not many places use ribeye for their chop steak. I love the flavors and the steak and veggies were cooked just right, not over cooked. On my second visit I knew I wanted to try their steak and shrimp plate. So I called in my order and the lady asked how I wanted my steak done so I said medium rare. I arrived in about 10 minutes and they had just finished packing it. When I opened my plate I was kind of disappointed cause the steak was more like well done. But again, they use ribeye so it wasn't too bad. It was a little dry but still easy to chew and swallow and the seasoning was just right. The garlic shrimp was flavorful, not overcooked, and I appreciate that it was already peeled, which is my personal preference. It comes with 6 good size pieces. Most places give 4 or 5 with a steak combo. So overall this plate was still decent enough. I would order it again but hope that next time the steak is cooked to my liking. I'm sure I'll have more visits here. I really want to try their pot roast pork, hamburger steak, and fried chicken! And FYI cash only. Very friendly staff!

    This place in aktion, nice family awesome service ...... Well worth the trip to Kalhi

    Are you still in business? Haven't seen your wagon at the N. King St location in awhile.

    What cut of steak do you use for the steak and shrimp?

    Hi, we use ribeye steak.

Vince took our order and was patient with all our questions. Finally landing on the Combo plate with Korean fried chicken with dynamite sauce, and a huge piece of ahi tuna. It comes with a scoop of rice and we picked the macaroni salad. They also offer a lettuce salad. All for $19.95! The business model currently is carry out only, You get a text when your order is ready and out comes this generously filled clam shell of food. So much that they use a rubber band to close the container!

When the food is ready, you get a text, pick-up is on the kitchen-side, backdoor. We'd heard good things about their steak, dynamite chicken, and ahi katsu so we wanted to try all three. There is a chicken + meat combo that allows you to upgrade the meat to ribeye; we ordered this plate with all green salad. Then we ordered the King Kam ahi katsu with rice and upgraded the side to imitation crab salad. If you love sauce, this is for you. Their fried items are nicely cooked, the ahi katsu had a nice rare center and the boneless chicken was still juicy, but both lost their crispness under a mountain of seasoned soy sauce, Kewpie mayo, sriracha aioli, and sweet chili sauce. With the additional garlic, katsuobushi, furikake, and green onion, these are flavor bombs. The ribeye had a nice char from the grill. It's served with a side of crack sauce which has a vinegar, fish sauce base, plus chili, garlic and cilantro. The heat from the steak and chicken withered the bed of green salad underneath, so we didn't eat it; serves us right for not getting rice and mac salad with a plate lunch. At Kingz, more is more. If you are looking for a new plate lunch spot, check them out.

I was surprised to see the place pretty empty on a Friday night around 7. I went to the bar to order take out and the guy working was really nice and took my takeout order. I will say it smelled amazing in the restaurant. Food took about 10 mins to come out. The catfish was great, two pretty big pieces very well seasoned. The Mac and Cheese and Yams was also pretty good. I will say the Mac tasted better than it looked and I only say that because at first glance it didn't seem to have much cheese but I was wrong. The corn bread tasted good but was dry. I warmed it and added some butter and that didn't trick. The only thing I personally wasn't a fan of was the greens. They weren't necessarily bad but like Keith Lee says I don't know if I'm their target audience. They tasted a bit sweet and there was something else in the seasoning that I wasn't a huge fan of but couldn't quite put my finger on. I almost forgot the plate came with "yellow seasoned rice" which is under the fish on the Mac side. Honestly it's a free inclusion so not super fair to judge it. Everything in the picture was about $47 bucks. In my opinion that's a bit high and I'm guessing that's because it's in Waikīkī. I definitely plan to go back especially to try the Happy Hour, and I'd like to dine in to see how that goes.

We were right there, so I ordered a Smoked BBQ Rib plate. It came with 2 sides. We chose Baked beans and Green beans with smoked turkey. Service was very friendly and efficient! I believe that they worker said, "I appreciate you!" Wow! That's very nice of him! We took the plate home (it was too windy to sit alongside the busy sidewalk) and discussed the tasty ribs, sweet (molasses?) Baked beans and yummy green beans with smoked turkey. Mmm! I would return and get the catfish plate, Po Boy sandwich, and walking tacos!

I constantly pass this obvious gray truck quietly parked right along Mother Waldron Park in the early hours like a silent nudge for some early morning fuel to start my day...no sign...no service window its like a secret club grinds. Assuming he used to sell Managua sadly none is to be found here but what you'll find is a great assortment of budge friendly items like donuts, pork hash, musubi, chicken and fried noodles. As I approach for my selection a gentleman was a delight ordering two pork hash 2/$1, fried noodles $3 and chicken $2...all was $6! Parked along the park you're able to take advantage to an impromptu picnic though we all basically take it togo as I did to work and fueled my morning for a productive work flow lol! The noodles are plain no cabbage or any veggies not even green onions just some sliced char siu and it was a bit dry but satisfied a hungry appetite, and the pork hash was a tiny single bite size tease and the chicken is similar to a chicken fried steak as it's boneless coated with mochiko it was okay and I was just happy to have a budge friendly choice to start my day. Thank you!
