This review is only for Dell's breads and musubi's. Visited Mio Pastalogy once and noticed something next door but assumed it was part of Mio. To my surprise, it's another restaurant that was just about to open. Went back and visited Dell's after opening. They have a wide array of Japanese type breads, plate lunches and musubis. We have only tried several bread types as well as their musubi. My son really enjoys the salt butter rolls - same one we had when we visited Mio next door. My kids also like the chocolate marshmallow. I've also tried the bacon shiso epi - also good! I'm sure I would like them all, I just love Japanese breads! Parking is ample right now as there is no dine-in for either Dell's or Mio. I'm not sure how that will affect the parking lot. I'm sure we will be back! read more

Ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry and was not impressed at all. Potato Salad and slaw both had a sour or pickled taste that overwhelms all other flavors. Prices are also high considering what you receive read more

Dell's Kitchen and Bakery - Haas hi beef rice. Special Corn soup. And the famous Japanese bread pudding. Knack attack - Asian Fusion Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Omg the French bread is so delicious! I like the mentaiko baguette and cheese baguette. So crunchy on the outside but soft inside! Fresh! Misoyaki salmon is really good too!! read more

Just finished the Chicken Penne pasta, hands down the best I've had in a while! Highly recommended, after months of eating the Loco Moco, which I also love, finally tried something different! Yes my tastebuds love me! read more

Can smell the amazing bread from outside. Got the curry pan, mushroom & cheese, blue cheese baguette & gyudon. Curry pan delightfully spicy and perfectly seasoned. Blue baguette like nothing I have ever had before and bread clearly just freshly baked. Well priced, only $23 for 3 baked goods & a freshly made Don. However I subtract one star for service. I had also asked for a ham & cheese pan but the young gentleman running the counter either didn't hear that part of the order or forgot. When I asked how his day was going, he said he was tired. *shrug* happy I stopped in. Deliciously tender beef in the donburi. Arigato nei Dell's for a sugoi nei well-priced lunch! read more

We've never been disappointed with any meal here whether from Dell's, the bakery or Mio Pastalogy. The bacon and shiso epi was crisp on the outside, pillowy on the inside while both the Natto Bacon Carbonara and Yuba Ginger Cream Pasta are always good. We also sampled the Fried Rice with loads of cubed meats and the Nori Shiso Chicken takes mochiko chicken several heights higher. Only wish they would serve the Natto Epi served as a special on Natto Day 2 yrs ago a regular item... read more

I rarely write reviews, but I just ordered a Frued Salmon Belly plate lunch special, and OMG!! Made to order, hot and delicious! I forgot to take a picture, but there were 5 good sized pieces of crispy salmon belly, cabbage salad with tomatoes and dressing, yummy potato salad and one scoop of delicious Japan rice (more than enough)! At $13.50 this was a bargain! If you haven't had lunch yet, hurry down! I also picked up two French baguettes and a half loaf of bread which they'll slice for you...I had them slice it thicker for toast thiết time! read more

I always have the homemade pastas. the chocolate melon pan was the best I've ever eaten, crunchy topping with soft creamy bread.

Sooooo good. Our new favorite spot. Could eat here breakfast, lunch and dinner. Custard pastry was perfect. Daily soup felt like home. read more

Food was very tasty, lots of flavors in side salads and the kale was really good. Portions were perfect for me. Would definitively recommend. Wish I came earner to try their baked goods. read more

I really like the plate lunches which the sides appear so healthy and refreshingly different from your usual Hawaii plate lunches. We love the large scoop of potato salad, pickled veggies, cabbage salad and fluffy Japanese white rice. Our favorites are the nori chicken, short ribs and even the Impossible burger patties. read more

Honestly, Excellent!! My friend and I grabbed Dell's Kitchen to-go for lunch. I couldn't decide between the Garlic Chili Chicken or their Homemade Gyoza..... so I got both!! Not a bad decision at all, let me tell you! (; The Garlic Chili Chicken is traditional karaage chicken (Japanese fried chicken), lightly tossed in a well balance, garlic chili sauce. The chicken is dressed very lightly, and compliments the flavors in the crust. The Gyoza was good, but not my favorite as a to-go item. When we got to our destination 20 minutes later to eat, they had already cooled off and got a softer texture. I reheated them later, but it did not do them justice. The flavor was delicious, and I would definitely order them again if I was eating on site or close by. The Salmon Furikake Katsu with Hommade Pickled Aioli got really high praises from my friend, and was so good I didn't even get a bite.... Guess I'll have to go back soon and let the people know how it is (: Every side on the lunch plate was packed with flavor. Good solo or mixed together, my whole pallet was doing a happy dance!! Going again soon! read more

I got a curry pan and a salt/butter roll! Both didn't make it home in the 5 minute drive! I will definitely go back for these and taste more! Also got a chicken katsu curry plate. It was good but I wish they used the same curry from the pan! read more

SOME OF THE BEST BAKED GOODS YOU'LL FIND IN HONOLULU !!! Awesome bread, pans and ready made sandwiches. There are savory as well as sweet pans so you can get a variety to take home or eat there (they will have a dining area available soon if not already). read more

Bread was very but the gyuudon was not it lacks richness in taste its was too bland Katsu curry was ok

Dell's is a hidden gem! We got the lobster bisque, short ribs, and chicken katsu curry all delicious! I can't wait to stop by!

Located at old Aunty's Ramen. A culinary upgrade. Choke parking out front. Got the Maui style short ribs, it's made to order so wait was about 15 min. One scoop rice and 6 pieces meat might be kinda small for $16.50 but the bugga was ono. Good char on the kalbi. The potato salad was sweet and flavorful and the carrots had a nice hint of curry flavoring. The vinaigrette on the tossed salad was a little watery tho. Tried the cream custard from the bakery for dessert. It comes on a bread roll so it's not as sweet and flavorful as a danish. Recommended to me by my barber. Thanks Hiro! read more

Lady at register was quite rude, being snappy and showing attitude, while leaving us no time to look at the bread before purchase. Little did we know the loaf of bread was literally expired. Absolutely ridiculous. What's worse is that we've purchased bread from here before that soon became moldy not long after. This is not only deceptive in practice, but quite questionable as not all the baked goods have expiration dates, and may be sold even past expiration. Do better, and stop selling expired goods. read more

Everything was excellent! The service & the food were perfect, from the Ahi Katsu to the Loco Moco, absolutely the best I've ever had. When I return to Oahu , Dell's will always be a mandatory visit. Thank you guys!! read more

In the same place as Mio pastalogy (one of my daughters favorites). We've been here multiple times just didn't have time to review before the food got eaten....kalbi is my favorite and salmon katsu is my husbands favorite...we've tried most of the menu and haven't found anything we don't like... Staff is very friendly and always make us feel welcomed. Thank you aunty lisa and staff! read more

I love their gyoza!!!!!! Had their napolitan spaghetti...reminded me of japan...been back 3 times since I first went there since july

After reading the reviews about the custard cream pan, made a trip on Saturday morning. Parking was wide open! Went in and made our selections. Fortunately the custard cream pan was there! Gotta say, this was soooooo good! The buttermilk pan was just as good and the salt butter bread stick was amazing! Took a bite and I was surprised by the butter running down my fingers! Cannot wait to get back there! Yum! read more

Dell's Kitchen and Bakery - Corn, custard, fruit, mango, melon and that super buttery bread stick! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The food is good--had the short ribs which really reminded me more of kalbi in taste and presentation. But my favorite is the multigrain bread!! It's pillowy and filled with many different textures-- it's even better with their egg salad. Nice atmosphere and decent parking. Would definitely return to try other things like the omurice which they don't have daily. Oh and buy more bread read more

I had a really hard time deciding what to eat. The selection is enormous. The staff was very patient and answered all my questions. I ate the gyoza plate. It was super delicious. I also tasted my friends nori chicken shiso. Equally impressed Im looking forward to trying their pasta next time read more

So convenient & delicious! I've been wanting to try something new for lunch instead my usual home lunch. So I yelped places near my work and Dell's Kitchen and Bakery came up. Decided to place an order online & I'm so glad I did (sign said food took 15-20 min when I went to pick up). A lot of parking, I pulled right up to the front during lunch hour. I ordered the salmon furikake katsu, which came with a scoop of rice, potato salad, pickled veggies, a unique slaw, kale & a bed of spinach for the salmon. It was so yummy! I also got some pastries that I couldn't pass up. The Melon Pan (which was recommended by the worker) was so good!! Easy parking, clean area, friendly staff, delicious food - I will definitely be coming back to try their other dishes & pastries :) read more

Friendly and fast service with convenient parking out front. A little disappointed by the overly salty chicken karaage. If you're a fan of having different small sides to go with your entree, they do offer quite a bit of variety in their plates, but if you're hoping to split your meal into leftovers for later, you might need to look elsewhere. Still, you get a fair amount of food for the price you pay. read more

Went down on a Sunday afternoon, doors chained up. Someone was inside, but nothing to say why they were closed. No one answered phone either. Been the there a couple of times before. Hope it's just an isolated incident. read more

There were plenty of parking & easy access. I heard this place was somewhat similar to Bakery & Table (now closed) and I had a high hope. I ordered Seafood croquette. They were falling apart when I tried to pick up to eat, not cooked in the right temperature (outside was very soggy). They were filled with imitation crab meat. Salad dressing was tasteless. There seems to be some effort to create Japanese style potato salad, but it doesn't come nearly as creamy. This store requires customer to wear a mask, however, one of the cook's mask was under the chin, so his nose & mouth were not covered at all. I asked him to wear a mask and being ignored for while, before he decided to wear it properly. I was very excited to find this eatery but It's really disappointing overall. Don't think I will come back. read more

We had a big office lunch order which we called in hours before. All the dishes came out how we had requested and nobody seemed to have complaints. We were going to order pasta but decided go for the plate lunches instead. Unfortunately they said that today the bakery had a big order so all their baked items were not available because they didn't make them. This will force me to go back to try the baked goods. Always nice to have fresh breads. The food was interesting. My soy ginger chicken didn't have much flavor and the Korean kimchee and pork was a bit bland but I'm also used to very spicy Korean spices. I think the prices are a little high for the amount of non starches you get. Since I'm not a rice eater, that pricier rice that's used is an extra cost to the consumer, in my opinion. My other coworkers enjoyed their lunches so I was happy. The place was clean and staff was busy and friendly and were efficient. read more

This place is awesome and the people that work here are extremely friendly. The food is delicious and the bakery goods are amazing for any day. Thank you as we were extremely happy with our experience and will def be a long term customer. Thanks for making me a happy joo! read more

When I go to bakeries in Japan, I like to buy the bread with salt and butter on it. I had always wondered why no place in Hawaii sold it, that is until I found Dell's Kitchen. Some time after Aunty's Ramen went out of business-- maybe it was the karma for that time she refused to sell me a bowl of shave ice and threw the container of toppings away in front of me-- new owners took over and opened up a bakery and separate make your own pasta bowl restaurant. I am proud to say that I like the new tenants exponentially more. The bakery side sells a combination of both baked goods and plate lunches. There is usually even a tray of onigiri out for sale. I've had a few of the plate lunches here including the hayashi beef and the boneless kalbi. Both were pretty good and decently priced. If you order between 3 and 5pm, you can even get 20% off and a drink, so that's an added bonus. The real star of the shop, though, is their assortment of sweet and savory baked goods. I can't say I've ever been here when the display cases were full of bread. In fact, on some days, I've come in and the cases were already completely empty. If you come in hungry, you might go overboard purchasing too many pastries, but you'll only temporarily regret splurging. One of my favorites is this bread with bacon and a thickly sliced potato. The custard bread is delicious too. And the pão de queijo. And the scones. And the...you get the point. read more

Good, and they are wiling to customize your order (Japanese food). I've admired but not yet tried the bakeshop. No bathroom! No bathroom for customers (we have to assume with the recent Board of Health crackdowns they have bathrooms and hand washing sinks for the staff.) Has some parking. Watch out for the craters in the lot ... someone may have lost a Mini. read more

We've tried many dishes here and love them all. Especially the ginger pork. The service is always good. Friendly and helpful staff every time we went there. The restaurant is clean and we love how you can clear your own table when you're done if you want to which we normally do. read more

Dell's Kitchen is Awesome. Dell's Kitchen (and the adjoining Mio Pastalogy) are my new go to place for take-out. What to say besides, It's consistently high quality delicious food at a very fair price. Delicious! read more

Excellent Japanese bakery and pasta. Sandwiches and lunch plates are great too! Go try you won't regret!

Okay I'm not easily blown away but.... WOW. Had the Tonkatsu Curry today and it's easily the best thing I've eaten in a while. The Tonkatsu was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender inside. And believe it or not.. the curry was the star! Best curry I've had in my life as it was uniquely spiced. The sides were complimentary as well. Will be back soon! read more

Dell's was a very good surprise. The service was good and the food even better. The four of us ordered an eggplant dish, a salmon dish and two curry dishes. They were all very good and fairly priced. At first, I asked to use the bathroom and they said the men's bathroom was broken, so I suggested that I could use the women's bathroom and they again said no. I informed them that restaurants are by law required to have restroom facilities for all patrons. Then the big boss came in and escorted me to their "broken bathroom." As it turned out only one urinal was broken and remaining were another urinal and two toilets. I am glad they decided to let me use their facilities, otherwise I would have had a bad accident. read more

Great food and friendly service. Priced a bit higher than other place with plate lunch, but the quality is worth it. Tonkatsu is better than any counter service place I've been to (lower than Tamaguji, but better than almost anywhere else). read more
