Located in Pioneer Plaza in "Cunha's Alley," it's next to Merchant Street and can be accessed up a couple of steps through a doorway and it's right there on your left. This sandwich bar has been open for years and owned by the sweetest and hard working Korean couple with another woman who is very good and fast during the busy lunch hour. The three of them make an awesome team and have been working together for a long time so they know how to get your lunch quickly, efficiently and correct! They also do great sandwich platters and lunch bags for your seminars, meetings, etc. Check the chalkboard for specials and soup of the day! Phone in the order and it's always ready - these sandwiches are good too with plenty of meat, fresh veggies and ono spreads. They also have cookies, brownies, muffins, bags of chips, canned juice/soda, salads, and breakfast! Loved their breakfast- scrambled eggs, bacon and toast! Put in your order at the counter then sit at one of the tables to wait and it's ready pretty quickly! This is my absolute favorite sandwich place on the island and been patronizing them for over 20 years for both my personal lunch or for our corporate events. Mahalo Heidi's Deli & Bistro! read more

I've been a customer of Heidi's since the 70's, at various locations around Honolulu. I've been an infrequent visitor to the Pioneer Plaza location but have returned for two items ... Heidi's Club and the Turkey Cranberry Wrap. I've gravitated to the wrap because it's low cal / low fat ... A Spinach tortilla is filled with greens, pieces of turkey and dollops of canned cranberry sauce. Real cranberry sauce would take this wrap from a healthy and tasty choice to a simply scrumptious choice. Oh well, one can dream. The wrap is now $13 ... Alas, prices have increased almost everywhere. There are very few places where we can get a tasty and filling lunch for less than $20. Yes, I know, if we complain about prices, we're old. Anyway, back to Heidi's ... their menu hasn't changed very much over the years ... You can still get sandwiches, salads, and soups from the friendly staff. read more

A great fresh sandwich shop located in Pioneer Plaza (on the Merchant St side). Staff is super friendly and helpful. All sandwiches are made fresh. Paninis are hot and delicious. I haven't had anything here I didn't enjoy...except maybe the Eggs Benedict which is served not with Hollandaise sauce but a Bechamel sauce....its not bad...just...different. Also, if you're not super hungry they offer 1/2 sandwiches and wraps for around $6 which is pretty great. It's definitely my go to place when I need a bite, but I'm also not really that hungry. read more

If you ever want to find the best salad wraps in downtown, I feel like you should make your way to the Pioneer Plaza where Heidi's Delis and Bistro is located. Its right next to the entrance of the building on Merchant Street. Heidi's offer a variety of fresh salads, soups, sandwiches and wraps. They also offer breakfast omelette and a variety of special that are displayed right in front of their shop. My go to is always their chicken Caesar salad wrap. Their Caesar wrap is so good that I could practically eat it every day. What makes it really good is their Caesar dressing. It so creamy and just had the right flavor that makes a Caesar salad great. And because it's in a wrap form, I can basically eat it in a wrap... get it? I don't have to hassle with finding a place to sit and eat my salad. I've also tried their pastrami sandwich. They give a nice amount of pastrami and it's tied perfectly with a nice amount of sauerkraut and cheese. The sauerkraut gives it a nice amount of acidity to the pastrami. Pre COVID, you were allowed to sit in the seats fronting the shop, but it does get busy during lunch hours as the seating are are shared with the surrounding eateries in the lobby of the Pioneer Plaza. The staff are quick when making your order so you're not really waiting for a while waiting for your meal. Definitely a great place to get a quick bite. read more

Heidi's Delis & Bistro - muffin tops - Delis Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My go-to lunch place for salads! It is too hard to choose just one salad, so I always order a regular size combo, and then I eat it for lunch and dinner! My favorite salads are the Cobb, spinach and seafood broccoli! read more

I love going here for lunch to get their spinach salad plus the service is very good.

Some good things never change-Heidis is one of them. I used to work at Starbucks Financial Plaza 16 yrs ago and would walk here for lunch sometimes. The one thing stands out clearly in my mind from back then was how delicious their salads were. I would order the greek salad quite often, and on other occasions the soup/sandwich. Fast forward 16 years later and I find myself still craving their salads when Im frequenting downtown on a weekday. The average cost for salads around Honolulu is around $8-24 depending on where and what kind of salad you get. The salads are normal/average in size and I keep wondering if theyre even worth it? Heidis salads are $9.50 for a meal size salad and if you get a combo, just a little more than that. On my most recent visit back here I ordered the large size greek salad and their seaweed soup. Their large size salad could feed me for 2 meals (lunch going into dinner) and their soup cups are filled generously. Its a serious bang for your buck deal that is hard to come by at other places these days. I wish I still worked downtown and near this establishment so I can make this my go-to spot again. Im lucky to have the opportunity when I do have to go downtown for business to stop here and still enjoy their delicious food and friendly service. read more

A few blocks away from my office and hidden in a little food alley in the pioneer plaza, I stumbled across this little shop serving soups, sandwiches and salads. My friend wanted to go here because she used to like their salads. I ordered their soup and sandwich special for under $8. It came with a tuna melt Panini. The bread was toasted crisp, with tuna, cheese and tomatoes. Don't expect a lot of filling but surprisingly, the Panini itself filled me up. I tried the clam chowder which was good but a little too watery for a chowder. I loved the chunks of potatoes in there though. My friend ordered her salad, half Caesar and half greek. She ate the greek salad and enjoyed it but did not care for the sour tasting Caesar. :-( All in all, it was a mixed bag. But if I were in the area again, I'd give them another try. The staff was friendly and very quick (I'd give them 4 stars). read more

If you're old enough and work in downtown Honolulu, you remember when there was a Heidi's in what was then called Grosvenor Center facing Queen Street and one in Bishop Square. The one in Pioneer Plaza is the last one standing. They offer sandwiches, salads and some baked goods like scones and brownies. I come here occasionally for a pastrami sandwich with sauerkraut and cheese. it's a savory, salty, sour mess and oh, so good! You can get a pastrami sandwich elsewhere downtown (like Aloha Subs and This is It Too) but this may be the only place to get it with sauerkraut. Enjoy! read more

Portuguese bean soup no Portuguese sausage no ham hock no ham shank no meat watery no flavor. Just Cabbage carrots

I remember about 7 years ago Heidi's were located on Queen and Bishop. I wish they were still open. This place is my favorite place to eat as far as SALAD goes. Their Chicken Caeser Salad is the only place I go to if i'm in the mood of eating healthy..hahaha..but anyhow, I enjoy a salad that is not drowned with dressing and with all that good stuff that comes with the salad. They give you a bonus by serving bread with your salad..mmm good...i've had other items on the menu but I choose to have their salad only, not that its not good, its just their salad is as good as it gets ;)! Pro's -Close to my job -Salad's are awesome -Friendly service Con's -A bit pricey read more

I ordered the sandwich soup combo. I got the tuna panini, despite sitting in the panini grill the sandwich was cold, cheese was melted. It was average at best. I got the clam chowder, which really should be advertised as potato soup with a hint of clam. Soup was bland and grainy (clams needed to be cleaned better) also I found a hair in my soup. Lastly the brownie was more sugar then it was chocolate. Also huge cockroach in the display, man tried to hide it from me as he removed it but I saw it. I know insects are forgiveable to a certain degree here in Hawaii but combined with my cold panini, hairy soup, and overly sugared brownie it was a bit much. read more

I just paid $8 for some lady to manhandle a roast beef sandwich with her bare hands, using costco ingredients, heating up the roast beef on a dirty reused ceramic plate in the microwave. Didn't even get any chips. Should of just went to Subway. Check out Mix Cafe if you are interested in paying $8 for a sandwich; they put thought and effort into selling a good product. read more

I passed by this place many, many times and it seemed like 10 years ago or more passed during that time. But, I never really stopped and to really look on their menu as to what they have to offer. They have some delicious sandwiches that is made fresh as you watch and wait for them to complete your masterpiece in a very short while. I paid for it and I decided to try it right away as it was hot and juicy! I tried it and it was good. It would be better if it came with a dill pickle as that would make it great! When I am in the area again during work time. I will try another one of their delicious sandwiches that they have to offer and I will see if they sell a dill pickle separately. Some places it comes with it automatically and some you have to purchase it separately. There is a lot of food places on the ground floor in the Pioneer Plaza building of 900 Fort Street Mall and there is a 7-11 added recently to here on the outside corner of Merchant Street side of the building. If you haven't been here already you are definitely missing out on a lot of good food places to eat at. read more

Heidi's Delis & Bistro - Friday August 9, 2019 - Delis Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I love deli's, so I can tell you when I find a good sammy! I've had a half dozen varieties of sandwiches here and some salads. I like their combo deals which are usually a half sandwich and salad. It'll cost you $7-9 bucks depending on what you order, but it's not uncommon for lunch downtown. I really like the roasted eggplant and grilled zucchini on rye and their turkey melt is pretty good. It's simply fresh bread with fresh ingredients. It's pretty quick to pick up and go. The sign is pretty hard to read, so pick up a printed menu to read through when you have time (it's pretty extensive). read more

I've had quite a few of their sandwiches and salads and for the most part, the food is average - I usually come here when I don't want to make the long trek to Cafe Grazi or Le Crepe Cafe or want more than soup and salad from San Francisco Salad Company next door. I usually get any of the sandwiches that have avocado in it ~ I tried the turkey pesto panini, that wasn't so good. I think mostly because they use regular bread for the panini and were pretty stingy with the pesto. The pasta salad is pretty good, just the right amount of dressing! Some of the ladies working there are nice, some might be stressed and don't seem happy to be there - but for the most part, they're cool with me! read more

Always passed by this place when walking Pioneer Food Court but on Monday I decided to try this place out. I only tried the Heidis Benedict because Ive been on a benedict vibe lately. The sauce is different... it isnt the regular hollandaise sauce and its a little lumpy looking even if it doesnt have any texture. It caught my eye on the menu because basic benedict only has 1 type of meat: canadian bacon. There benedict comes with bacon, ham AND turkey. Pretty large size english muffin too. read more

Seems like Heidi hasn't been spending a lot of time at her lunch counter. My overall sense was of a non-owner-present business operating too long on autopilot. I needed some comforting and Heidi's soup and sandwich special--- ham and cheese panini with corn chowder for about $7.50 --- looked like it would give me a hug. What's more comforting to a mainland New England haole than ham and cheese and corn chowder, right?? The servers were pleasant... but the corn chowder was bland and under seasoned, and the panini was well toasted on the outside but the cheese was still unmelted inside. The overall feeling of the counter is dated, they had a green health inspection "pass" poster prominently displayed, but the front of the microwave oven didn't look so great. Overall it was OK, but nothing made me want to return. read more

Love this place! Especially since it's a walking distance away from my work place. They have all sorts of sandwiches, bagels, paninis, salads and more! They also make really delicious homemade soup. My favorite is the corn chowder filled with lots of corn, big chunks of potatoes and carrots! I recommend ordering a combo which is either half sandwich (which are filling just by itself!) and soup or half salad and soup. Only downfall is that it's a little bit on the pricier side but the quality and taste is all worth it :) read more

I'm always there for a salad combo. It's pasta salad with either cobb or seafood. All heaven with little guilt! Can't beat the price at just over 8 bucks, not more. How is it that the veggies are at the perfect texture?? Too distracted to figure out why. I'm so engrossed at every bite right now. read more

This place is conveniently located close to my office. I've been here a few times and I have to say every time I've been here the customer service is terrible and the equipment and the people are dirty, they don't wear gloves!To top things off the prices are way too high... Not going back. I would recommend San Francisco Salads right next to them for a quick nearby lunch. Nicer and much cleaner!! read more

Love the LA Express. It was the first thing I got from there and now I have a hard time trying something different.

Had the Thai Chicken Wrap...it was awful. Meat wasn't even seasoned, veggies were microwaved & peanut sauce came out if a plastic tub. I could've done better making it myself. For $8, it sucked. No flavor at all. read more

The food and the service at Heidi's are both consistent and reliable. I use them for group lunches often and love that I can email them my order a day or so ahead of time and count on it being ready for pick up with the names printed on the items. They offer a wide variety of fresh made sandwiches and salads and everyone is always happy with their selection. I also appreciate that when they are going to be closed they make it clear on their website so I don't get stuck scrambling for a lunch meeting. Mahalo nui! read more

I visit Heidi's for lunch about every other month or so and usually order the Combo Salad with Chicken Caesar and Pasta Salads or the Panini Combo, depending on which panini is part of the daily special. The food here is simple. Sandwiches are all made to order and the Chicken Caesar Salad is tossed when you order. The prices are a bit high for what you get so don't get suckered into getting the garlic bread with your salad order. It's not a complimentary accompaniment. They also have an assortment of baked goods, including breads, muffins, cookies, and brownies. I am always tempted to try their baked goods as I wait for my panini get toasty in the panini press, but always decide against it. They look good from afar, but look kind of dry after a closer look. One day I should just try one before passing further judgment. All in all, I come here for lunch because it's convenient and the food is simple and fast. read more

Heidi's Delis & Bistro - Salad Combo: Chicken Caesar and Pasta Salads - Delis Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Heidi's is a big disappointment. I ordered the LA express. Which is a turkey bacon sandwich with avocado, sprouts, and Swiss cheese. They put one slice of turkey which I am not sure if you can really call it turkey, it looked more like bologne. They broke one piece of bacon in half. And that was it for bacon. The sprouts were nice but that was about it read more

Delicious vege-wrap. It comes with two wraps filled with vegetables and guacamole. Very good. Priced well and good service too.

It was my first time here. I got the L.A. Express. Nothing breathtaking. Very average food. The one thing I'm concerned about is that they don't use gloves when they make the food. read more

They have the best Cobb salad!! The portions are solo big it last me lunch and dinner for only 7 bucks. Ok, so the reason I'm only giving 3 stars is the service and attitude of the 2 ladies that work there. They always act as if there are 50 people in line and they are stressed beyond belief. Even if no ones around.. They are short and snappy with you. The man who works there however is very nice. read more

The lady who is always furiously busy making sandwiches should stop sometimes and wash her nasty hands and the knife she uses. Also be careful what she touches while she is preparing food. read more
