Patty Melt
Ashley J.

Tried the cherry coke float and it was alright. Also ordered the patty melt and it was nothing special. I should have tried something else. I give 2 stars for our waitress who was amazing and gave our kids a free little toy.

I wish I got our servers name, but he was amazing. The kids just wanted to get a quick bite to eat along with some shakes. We went in as a party of 8, we had to wait a little to be seated as there was birthday party just finishing up and they didnt have a table that could fit our family. We didnt mind waiting as the kids were playing games while we waited. our order was taken quiet quickly and our server was very attentive to each of us. 5 stars for their service, but I want to say 3-4 stars for their food. Their chicken strips were super dry (which I dont have a picture of, sorry), the fries were crispy, their nachos were perfect serving size and the shakes, well the kids drank up all, so I guess it was delicious, LOL... FYI: these pictures that are posted are super old, I guess I never finished my review from when these pictures were posted. Sorry....

My brother is home for the holidays, so we were hanging out one day at Ka Makana Ali'I and decided to get some lunch. He happened to notice that they have a Johnny Rockets on their property and suggested we go there. He had visited their location on the mainland in the past and loved the nostalgic feel of an old time diner. This particular location is quite fun because it's not just a restaurant. It's a Johnny Rockets Rock n Fun because there's also an arcade with games and a redemption center to win prizes. Lots of noise going on in here, so if you're looking for a quiet meal, this is not the place. I ordered the Route 66 burger that was made of Swiss cheese, grilled mushrooms, caramelized onions and mayonnaise. My brother got the Philly Cheese Steak. For our drinks, we had to get into the diner feel so we both got shakes. I got the Strawberry Oreo Crumble shake and he got the Strawberry shake. We also ordered a full order of onion rings and he got an order of chili cheese tater tots. The burgers do not come with fries, so if you want fries, you'll either need to order a side order of fries or order a full order like we did to share. First off, I couldn't believe how long it took for our food to arrive. I think it took about 30 minutes for the onion rings and chili cheese tater tots to arrive and then another 10 minutes or so for the burgers to arrive. It was not busy at all, so we were quite surprised by this. When seeing other customers get their orders later on, they received theirs much faster. There was never anything said about what was taking so long or some kind of update about how much longer it would take to get our food. The strawberry shakes were pretty good as there are actual bits of real strawberries in them. If you've got a sweet tooth, I'd recommend it. Go with the Deluxe Strawberry Oreo shake that costs a little bit more, but is worth the addition of Oreo crumbles in your shake. The onion rings were also good. They currently have regular onion rings that have the crumbles on them or the beer battered onion rings that have a smooth exterior. I'm not sure if they usually have beer battered ones because there's a special Christmas menu that they are on. I personally like crumbly coated onion rings, so I went with the regular. These are worth getting as they are pretty hefty/crunchy and don't just wilt on you within minutes as some places can do. Everything else was just alright. Definitely not worth the cost and the long wait. Service was super friendly. There was only one server, but man was he a bubbling ball of energy and delight! He even gave us a peppermint ball at the end to wish us a good day. Just for his friendliness, I gave another star for this review. Had this place been busy, I honestly don't know how he would have been able to handle it all, though. We took a quick tour of the arcade before we left. These machines don't give out tickets (as I think most arcades don't these days). You just swipe your card and if it's a game that would produce tickets, then it just adds the amount of 'tickets' you won to your card. There's a good variety of video games, 'ticket' producing games and a merry-go-round ride. Quite honestly though...with all the other food options at Ka Makana Ali'i, I wouldn't choose to come here again. If it was just a restaurant, I don't see how they would manage to stay in business. I think the arcade is the draw with a food establishment in it.

My diet coke and my boyfriend's lava flow
Maritess C.

My boyfriend and I are here for lunch. He ordered the hot wings and I got the Philly cheese steak sandwich. It was good. I tried my boyfriend's wings and it was good also. To drink I had a diet Coke and he had the lava flow. This drink was good and you can hardly taste the alcohol. I would definitely like this to drink next time. Service was good although our server forgot to give me a refill before we were about to leave. Overall it was pleasant. Ambiance was nice. It's attached to a game room. I also noticed a bar in the middle of the game room. Pretty cool if you want an alcoholic drink. I would come back to eat here

Terrible food. Terrible service, Milkshake was good. Ambiance is quasi epileptic. Awful experience. Don't come. After we both ate one bite of our burgers, we looked at each other and said, "This is disgusting," and, "I'm not eating THIS." Then we told the waitress. She gave a 15% discount but made us pay for the inedible food. Bad. Bad. Bad. Poor service, I had to go into the kitchen to get our own silverware after calling for help loudly for 5 min after our food was delivered. Burgers served on a plate the size of the burger. Literally, a tiny plate, like a coffee cup saucer. I just cannot express how awful this eexperience was for us both.

Came here with a large group. I had no idea you could drink here! But hey, fun for adults and children! Junk that they don't serve individual pizzas. Only while pizzas and this flat bread that I turned into a pizza. The sauce on it was really disgusting. Tasted like tomato paste. The burger was very delicious though. Nicely cooked and put together! I really enjoyed the burger. Chicken strips and fries were pretty regular. What upset me was the price is ridiculously high! Customer service was good but they did lack employees and needed help with tending to customers and keeping track of people coming in and going. But they did their best with the little help they had and the amount of people that was there. The games were also very expensive! $50 was gone after 4 games! That's crazy to me! Please make the games cheaper since the food is already so expensive! It is loud in here with all the games and children but that's expected. Fun place to go with kids and friends. Just be prepared to spend a huge chunk of change!

Kid's (kieke) Mini Cheese Burgers with Fries.
Francisco R.

Took junior to play some games and grab a quick lunch while we were there. The price for his food wasn't too bad and it came with a drink, that's not pictured. Considering, the last time we got food here was shortly after they just opened and the food was not the greatest but decided to give it a try again, so he could eat and continue playing games. Surprisingly enough, the burgers and fries tasted good, and he loved it. He loves burgers and fries. But i didn't realize you had to pay extra for cheese on his burger, which I don't have a problem paying for but they didn't tell me, I had to pay extra when they asked if I wanted it like the picture. I gave it 4 stars just because I had to clean the table before we sat down. Like most places, they don't have the staff to keep up with everything going on there. Will be back for more games and a snack in the future.

The Original Burger: comes fully furnished; I added mushrooms for a little more - ono!

FPO and I had just flown in from the Big Island (Hawaii Island). It was late for us (around 9:00…read morepm). The fam asked if we were hungry. Next stop Zippy's. After hearing about their experiences at this Zippy's (not great) I was a little surprised that they picked it. I guess the service is slow and food expensive. I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, Zippy's has gotten greedy in last several years but everyone's prices are crazy, insane, high these days. It was busy Saturday night and the place was pretty full. Still we got seated kinda quickly. Donavon was our server. He was friendly, efficient, and funny. The food came out fast, it was hot. I haven't been to Zippy's in a few years. It was the same as I remember, and that was comforting.

The waitress' name was Sandra and she asked what would we want to drink. My son and I both got iced water for the time being. We looked over the menu and my son got the Zippy's omelette with fried rice and a side of hash browns. The omelette was loaded with Portuguese sausage, spam, veggies and cheese. I had the veggie omelette with white rice and a side of hash browns. We then ordered 2 Orange Bang juice. Was ono! Dining area was clean and orderly. Bathroom as immaculate as well! The waitress was very polite and courteous. We hardly get to eat here but when we do, it's an amazing experience. Just have a pic of the aftermath, Lol... Next time we come back, we're gonna dismantle some Napples. Aloha Zippy's Kapolei!!

The vibes are good with live music but the music is LOUD so be prepared you have to talk pretty loud to hear the people at your table. The gluten free menu is available but it is limited. The server was fantastic about answering questions and honestly she was the best part of the meal. I ordered the edamame and shrimp fried rice my mom ordered the Caesar salad. The portions are LARGE plenty for 3-4 people to split let alone two. Caesar salad was standard and good from what my mom told me. Edamame- I probably would not order this again. It was fine, but I didn't love the seasoning blend on it personally there are other things I would be interested in trying. Shrimp fried rice- I was really excited to try this and I was really hoping that it would be excellent and it was OK. The shrimp was cooked well and the fried rice just felt like it needed some more butter and it was lacking some of the things that make fried rice, fried rice like a fried egg so overall not my favorite dish. The gluten-free menu was pretty limited on options for me to try so I would probably go to somewhere else to try and get fried rice in the future.

Hostess said, I'm sorry I don't have you on our wait list. She asked if it was 2 adults and one child, and he said no as it was under the same name. She just said, it might have been someone on the inside that took us out of the wait list. She said sorry and my boyfriend said nevermind, we'll just go somewhere else. I asked if we could go back on the wait list, but she said yes, but you'd have to wait again and thought it wasn't worth it. She said Happy Father's Day to us. I said Thank you.
