    BBQ pork ribs
    Terrance Y.

    Well I was in the area and I finally had the chance to go to Miki's got the BBQ pork ribs and whoa the plate was steaming hot enough that I couldn't hold the plate and eat haha so I put it on the trunk of my car and devoured the plate the bbq pork ribs was good and the Mac salad was ok the service was really quick that the long line I was in went down pretty fast so you don't have to wait long parking can be a bit challenging if there is a lot of people trying to get food late at night but where other plate lunch places are closed there's Miki's! Hope I get to go again I want to try the Teri Meatballs.

    You already know...it's Miki's! The nostalgia this place is amazing! This is my high school years and a ton of late night hang outs! If you haven't been, don't let me gas it up. But if you grew up eating here. This is the spot! The roast pork is always tender! The go to meatballs are always fantastic! Almost everything in the menu is good! The corned beef sandwich is delicious! And you can't go wrong with a pbj! Don't overlook this place!

    Teri Meatball and shoyu chicken
    Brenda B.

    Man, I still remember coming here in college for a late night meal and coming back after so many years was nostalgic and so familiar. I ordered the Teri meatballs and shoyu chicken. Auntie in the front was so kind and friendly and the servings were just as I remembered, decent. There was a little wait for our food but it was understandable as this is a very busy eatery. Of course parking is a little tricky as it can get a little busy but nonetheless, still worth it!

    Tin foil strip in pastele plate
    Ciera B.

    I've been a frequent customer since I was in middle school & never had any issues! I'm normally eating at home in dim lighting (since it's night time), but I happened to bring my leftovers to work - where's there's fluorescent lighting, as well as sunlight. If I had demolished my food last night, I wouldn't have seen the thin strip of tinfoil sitting on my fork. I'm certain it's because the pasteles are wrapped in foil; but just grateful I didn't swallow it! Other than that, the food is ALWAYS on point. I would just suggest checking thoroughly when ordering pasteles.

    Pork Adobo & Teri Meat Ball Combo
    Keola K.

    Let me start by saying.......my old school favorite hole in the wall spot. If you want homey food with tons of sauce and gravy, you'll be in heaven. If you are looking for fine dining, pretty Yelp post type dishes, this ain't your place., haha. My favorite.......the oh so cheap, simple, and delicious meat balls. Soft, mealy, sweet goodness haha. Mr hey also make a good adobo (reddish sauce style), shoyu chicken, pastele stew......hmmmmm actually never ordered something. I didn't like. They are open only later in evenings and not in the day so plan accordingly......they aim for that party people with an appetite haha. I'll always come back when I am hungry and it's late haha.

    My mini beef stew. $7.50.

    This time around I had the S&S ribs combo with the beef stew and the stew was great the ribs had a lot of bones and little meat. I also found the ribs salty. Almost inedible. I was hungry so I ate it. Just hd to double up on the BP meds! Awwwrite!!!

    Mixed plate - teriyaki meatballs and roast pork
    Brennan H.

    Came back again when I had a late night craving. I love their roast pork - it's so tender and juicy. I love the amount of gravy they give as well. Definitely worth it for the price. The lady in the front is super friendly as always. Will be back when the late night cravings hit and nothing else is open but fast-food!

    A stop I usually go to if I have a late night craving while going out late at night. This place is literally a while in the wall. Hidden from many tourists, this is a local spot to get some good lunch plates. I usually order a mini meatball or mini lau lau. Their mini size is pretty hefty! I used to come here years back with my carclub crew so it brought back lots of memories. People that come here are mostly late night workers or random local people. I've heard instances people get mobbed here to come here being aware of your surroundings.

    Teri Meatball & Pastele Stew
    Shirleen W.

    ONE OF THE LATE NIGHT MUNCHIES YOU CAN GET IN AIEA! There's plenty of street parking and the price is very affordable. Not your typical fine and dine, but more casual and on-the-go kine grindz! You get the option of having one: -Mix plate $14.75 -Regular plate $13.75 - Mini Plate $10.50 It looks like they have rotating menus so they will always have different things on the menu! We got their teriyaki meatballs and spicy pastele stew and it was pretty good to satisfy the angry tummies that want food

    Mix plate - Pork Adobo and Teri Meatball
    Kaleo L.

    Idk if I just got the wrong things, but I was a little disappointed after eating here. It's convenient for late night and my food came out quick and hot. I got the mixed plate for $15 so I could try a few things and got pork adobo and teriyaki meatballs with Mac salad. Everything was pretty salty and bland in my opinion. Mac salad just tasted like straight mayonnaise. The meatballs were something you get frozen from the grocery store. The adobo was tough and oily. This is a locally loved establishment and I can understand why due to the convenience and options available, but for the price and quality I think I'd just go to the grocery store hot food section.

    Simple ono menu, about 10 minute wait for the food if you catch them on the busy hours. There were about 5 folks in front in line. Must get their pickled onion.

    Laulau mix plate with meat loaf
    Jenn R.

    It's been years since I've been here.. This place used to be my friends and I favorite local spot in the wee late night hours after partying and I remember their food was always satisfyingly good to sober you up and it's still good as I remember! Last night my hubby and I returned and ordered their meatballs & Laulau mix plate with meat loaf. So ono! Everything was fresh and delicious. I enjoyed it all. So much flavors.. and the rice with Mac salad, blend it together..Omg, kanacks attacks! Lol. Can't wait for the next trip back to try other things on their menu. Service was friendly and polite. The Filipino lady at the window reminds me of my aunty. So nostalgic this place. I'm glad they are still open and made it through Covid times.

    Mix plate: Kalua pork cabbage, Pork laulau, mac salad, 2 scoop rice. Mix plate: Pork laulau, Teri meatballs, 2 scoop rice.

    I used to go here all the time to get my filipino food fix. Unfortunately they closed the Kalihi…read morerestaurant and now have to make the drive out to Waipahu. If you have never been here I highly recommend you trying their filipino food. Portion size is good and worth the money but the main reason you're buying their food is cause it's winnahs. I did take out a few of their menu items. Their special for July is lechon Kawali, pancit, pork gisantes and pork adobo fried rice. It's good to get this or mixed plate with 3 choices. It allows to try more of their menu selections. While one is good 3 or 4 is much better especially if coming here for the very first time. You won't be disappointed. I called in to place my order and it would be twenty minutes which is fine cause that's how long it took me to get there. The food was hot and ready to go. I made sure my ac was off so I can enjoy a nice hot lunch. The place was crowded even at 1pm. People know good food when they eat it. Lots of parking. The lechon Kawali was good. It's nice and meaty with some nice soft fat pieces. Oh so good. Yeah if you are worried about cholesterol then this might not be for you. If not you gonna enjoy it. The pancit is good. The pork gisantes which is more commonly known as pork and peas is really good. It's like stew and you wanna mix your rice with it. If you like eggs over easy then you should have that over your gisantes. It's sooooooo good. Kinda like Loco moco except it's stew. When that yolk breaks and blends in with the gisantes hoo boy. Just really good stuff there. Then the main attraction is their pork adobo fried rice omelet. I believe they were the original restaurant that brought it out. I might be wrong but they make it just right. Every bite is so good especially when you bite into one that has fat in it. Yummy. Yeah not a good choice if you're staying away from cholesterol but if not you're gonna enjoy it. The pork adobo fried rice is not dry like some other places I've tried. Ok I admit i love filipino food. I had to get dinuguan. Chocolate meat. Another winner with rice and really good with over eggs on top of it. Nice tender succulent pieces of pork. Oh my God, it's so good. I also got Shanghai lumpia. This is da bomb. You gotta eat this one hot and fresh. If not it gets stale and soggy so I ate this first. You dip it into vinegar. I like a little heat so I add Tabasco to it. Great with beer. It's so good. I'm missing it already. Then the final dish i got was their sari sari. It's soup with mixed veggies, baby shrimp and lechon. The soup is delicious and comforting. It's great on a cold night or maybe when you're feeling sick. Better than your chicken noodle soup for sure. It's also great remedy for that hangover you got last night. Lol All in all you just gotta try it. Let me know what you got and how good it tasted. Enjoy and thank me later.

She seemed very concerned and worried about my daughter who found it in her mouth. Thank God my 1-1/2 year old grandson didn't swallow it because he was eating it with my daughter!! Sooo dangerous ! Melissa will investigate this. Thanks Melissa. This taught me a lesson , as well as having a phobia . ALWAYS check your food when buying from restaurants or fast food. I Love eating and ordering pans of food at Elena's but I'll be very careful from now on.

To assume all the food of the Philippines all taste the same would be to assume all food from China taste the same. That said, where this food draws its influence from is unlike mainstream Filipino flavors in Hawaii. For example, the pancit uses wide almost "Chinese" style alkali noodles stir fried in a dark soy sauce, a fermented seafood sauce, crispy garlic, colorful bell peppers, long beans topped with three well cooked, head and shell on shrimp and garnished with crab eggs, and chives. Tear off the head, squeeze out the head fat, squeeze the fresh lime wedge and mix into the pancit and it opens up a whole next level of seafood goodness. The chicken inasal is great eats. Beautifully marinated then grilled chicken hindquarter sat atop a bed of crispy shallot rice garnished with pickled cucumber. Shredding the chicken, mixing in the Chinese style ginger onion sauce, adding the accompanying soy based sauce and mixing all the pickles and rice together makes for one absolutely delicious concoction. Lots of other modern Filipino fusion dishes to try. Their version of mini lumpia bites are perfect for the meat lover, filled almost entirely with seasoned ground pork. Refrying leftovers creates and ethereal crisp outer shell making day two even better. Creative drinks available. None sampled yet. Food is made to order. Expect a 15-20 minute wait.
