Staying local so decided to support the small business instead of corporate places. Glad I did! The ribbon fries hit the spot with the 3 crispy perfectly fried chicken tenders. The chicken quesadillas are on point to. The staff was very welcoming and quick service as everything was made to order. Its a small location with a few outdoor dining tables but I'd assume most patrons take food to go like me. read more

I have had their Birria quesadilla and the lumpia now (2 visits and I've lived here less than a week) great service and delicious food! Will definitely be stopping by again! They've got a cute little area to eat but I like to take it back to my place, probably tastes EVEN BETTER fresh! (Forgot to take a pic of the lumpia) read more

Sign outside indicates 24hr as does online but when we came in for cold brew she said they weren't open for 15 minutes at 6:18am. My brother-in-law stopped after us 15 minutes later and ordered cold brew and paid for it, but the staff just continued to talk about their day to each other for 5 minutes, as he was still waiting for his order to be started a small bug crossed the counter, he thought maybe a beetle. Then looking over at the container holding straws there was a larger bug crawling around on them, a cockroach, both were cockroaches . He walked out and left, his $6 drink still not started, and now unwanted. read more

I really liked this place, super close to where we were staying so it was our go to spot. Tiny inside with a couple of tables to eat outside. They have a good variety to choose from. They are from Argentina so they have argentina style empanadas, I ordered the chicken empanada and really enjoyed it could use some salsa or more flavor tho. Banana pancakes were bomb! They also have coconut syrup to make it even better! Loved the adobo plate and their custom ribbon fries were soo good! I was not a fan of the lemonade drinks, they were super sweet. Prices are pretty good being that it's in the prime of waikiki. Orders can take some time but the staff is cool. read more

Cute lil spot for quick and friendly service. Everything I've eaten here has been delicious. I usually eat breakfast here (burritos, croissant sandwiches, and spam and eggs over rice). Good bang for your buck! I recently had their bacon cheeseburger and that was well worth the money and calories Their burgers come with fries and those always seem to be cooked to perfection. They've got a variety of sauces including spicy mayo that's good in pretty much everything. They've also got quite an array of drinks... I've only ordered coffee there but I heard their boba tea was pretty good. This is probably one the cheaper options in this area but I think the food is pretty damn good! Come give them a try and support their small business. read more

Located on a back street you'll find it next to a very popular hostel. The owner operators are very nice, personable and easy to like. If I recall correctly they are from Argentina and that said you'd think birria tacos and empanadas should be one of their strong suits. They offer wide variety of items though. From burgers to fries, Filipino classics like lechon kawalli, pork adobo and lumpia! What did we order? - Bacon Cheese Burger: 3/5 Stars - Fries: 3/5 Stars - Birria Tacos: 2/5 Stars - Lumpia Shanghai: 2/5 Stars Run down: - On standard items like a bacon Cheeseburger that could easily be fixed with just bit more seasoning. The fact that they've not given that much consideration to the flavor has it fall short of standard expectations. - The lumpia was very bland, honestly had a flavor and feel of a poor quality frozen store bought lumpia. - The Birria tacos also victim of poor flavor and the consomé was the so far from the traditional standard of flavorful broth that if this were a persons first experience of Birria tacos, said guest would likely not be interested in trying one from another restaurant if this were the basis. Overall, if Hi.Shack gave a little more care to the flavor as they do to being personable, they could become a solid late night go to. But for now, it falls short, and I'd likely recommend McDonalds or Dominos to a friend verses a rec to Hi.Shack Kitchen read more

We were staying around the corner and came here for their flavored lemonade. They also sell burgers, sandwiches, fried food, and other similar items. The red guava lemonade we got on our first night was really good and came in a 24 oz plastic cup as advertised. The next day we ordered a mixed lemonade, specifically the Honey Gurl (honeydew & passionfruit) and it came in a paper 20 oz coffee cup instead. The mixed lemonade was definitely not as good. I would recommend the red guava lemonade but just wished there was some more consistency across their drinks. Both the flavored and mixed lemonade are advertised as being a 24 oz plastic cup on their menu read more

Ate dinner here at the HI Shack on Lemon Ave. Last night. We had beef empanadas fried Noodles and lumpia Shanghai. The service was counter order and a vibrator pager. The ladies were all friendly and accommodating. The ambiance is a hole in the wall fast food local restaurant. They are quick with great tasting food and offer a huge variety with great hours of service. Give them a try when in the area. read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. I don't know what unholy kitchen circus I ordered from, but somehow I paid $30 in tips and fees just to receive absolutely nothing but disappointment and existential dread. First they made me wait hours -- HOURS -- as if my time is some kind of complimentary appetizer they can serve cold. Then DoorDash hit me with the fees like it was a premium subscription to misery. By the time the food finally arrived, it looked like it survived a battlefield and lost. And the lumpia? I've seen paper towels with more crisp and integrity. The lumpia were colder than my soul after waiting. The taste was 90% melted garbage, 10% regret. And the meal I actually ordered? Apparently fictional, because it wasn't in the bag. I never got my beef noodles. For $30 extra, I basically tipped the driver for apologizing and paid a convenience fee for a cold lumpia funeral. This wasn't a meal -- it was a life lesson in suffering. At this point, I genuinely believe the kitchen is run by gremlins blindfolded, using instructions written in crayon. Save yourself. Save your money. Save your sanity. I would rather eat a microwaved gas-station lumpia that fell on the floor than ever order from here again. read more

The place is cute. The staff is friendly. There are many options to choose. The birria and consume had zero flavor. Garlic and seasoning desperately needed when creating your consume. Meat was dry. Try using Sous vide and/or adding water and root vegetables when slow roasting meat. I loved the vibe. I'll try something else to see. read more

They make the best fries here, just perfect and hits the spot. We had their burgers and rice with pork dish also. Those were yummy. Super friendly staffs and price is reasonable for this area. Nice little local spot that we love visiting regularly. read more

This place is always fresh fast and they're serving high-quality meat. Staff is typically pretty friendly. I've eaten there maybe about five times and I've never had a bad experience. This place deserves more attention. read more

Worst loco moco ever. Overcooked meat and eggs and the gravy was disgusting. Do you guys even try your own food?

HI Shack is a down & dirty, get it done hole-in-the-wall with good grub and no BS. Go elsewhere if you want, but don't blame me for not trying. read more

Food tasted decent but gave my wife and I some sort of food poisoning. Everything was fine but after we ate here, we both feel terrible and are having pretty bad bowel movements. read more

Cheaper food than many other touristy stuff. Kind of a hole in the wall type place which is what we were looking for. The workers were nice. They did get part of the order wrong but fixed it quick read more

Amazing burgers, taste like im back home during vacation. Felt a little rushed/unwanted but was still good. There was little space to sit but was served fast. read more

If you want your order to be wrong this is the place to go. Tried it twice on our resent trip to Honolulu and our order was wrong both times. Also have a sign that says open 24 hours which was not the case. It is cheaper than other option but as they say you get what you pay for. Look for other options. read more
