    If you're looking for authentic home cooked Filipino food, North Star is the place to go. We used to frequent their Kalihi location on School Street, however, after 40+ years in business, the "uncles and aunties" finally decided to retire this past October so only the Waipahu location is still in business. One of their popular items is the chiicharon, a crunchy skin on the outside and that tender juicy pork on the inside. Yummy! For those that don't know, it is basically a Filipino version of Chinese roast pork. They also have other favorites including pancit, pork adobo, pork quisantes and pinakbet to name a few. Options include a mini or regular plate lunch or by the container (small, medium or large poke-sized plastic containers). This Waipahu location appeared to be bigger than their old Kalihi location. It is also a Filipino grocery store. Tip, if you are planning on ordering sausage by the case, it's best to pre-order. Northstar is located in the Waipahu Professional Center in the rear building, just diamond head (east) of Servco Toyota on Farrington Highway. There is ample parking as there are a number of other businesses in this strip mall.

    Longanisa
    Maricel E.

    Small Filipino store! They serve snacks, plate lunch, dessert, and their famous longanisa $13 each. Service is quick, grab what you need and head to the cashier. I can't wait to taste the longanisa.

    Came here for the chicarron, pig skins( bag used to be bigger!!), ebotebo(sp?), and stikko wafer sticks! Yum! No customer service, just get in, ask questions, pay, and get on your way. 2 stalls in front of the store, 1 of them is for handicap. Lots of snacks imported from the Philippines.

    Wish l could give NO . Will not return. They don't know how to calculate and ring up customers. They charged me $7.75 for somebody else's plate. Terrible.

    Came here one day because I was craving the ilocano version empanada. Also, their longanisa is bomb here.

    Empanada with fly topping

    Disgusting! The empanadas I bought from them has a fly inside. Ughhh I almost finish it. Don't buy their empanadas

    This is a place to go for some crunchy chicharon! $4 for a quart sz ziploc bag. It's use to be like a $1 cheaper.

    You gotta try the chicharon here! You can eat it as a palutan aka snack or with rice, either way it's yummy for the tummy!

    The best Chicharon in Waipahu
    Gene G.

    The best Chicharon in Waipahu, as quoted by my nephews.I would have to agree with them.They have been customers there for many years and have always bought Chicharon here or at their location in Kalihi.A small tiny grocery store/deli has great selection of deli items for parties and special meals.Freshly made and great quality. ***** Friendly service and helpful staff. *****

Odd, as nothing really needed to be "cooked" very long. I noticed immediately that a majority of the tables were disgusting and there are flies buzzing around. In any case, I still decided to order my food as "dine in." I did some shopping while I was waiting, and of course, while I was standing in line (almost 20 minutes later) my beeper went off. You cannot silence it, so I ended up abandoning my place in one of the three cash register lines. Since there are only 3 lines, they do not move quickly. This is prime time on a Saturday, mind you. I went to turn in the beeper and get my soup. The soup comes in a flaming box with a bowl shaped opening with feet, where the stainless seet bowl sits. Now, I get that the flaming box is meant to keep your soup hot... However, WE ARE IN HAWAII. The ambient temperature isn't going to cool down the soup dramatically. IN FACT, I HAVE BEEN SITTING HERE WAITING FOR THE FLAME TO GO OUT, BECAUSE MY SOUP IS TOO HOT TO EAT. Additionally, because the bowl sits on feet, the beef bones weight keeps spilling the soup off one end. The soup is delicious, but this is the stupidest execution and presentation of something meant to be delicious and simple. Also, if the bowl is too hot to hold and drink from... soup spoons would be awesome. ‍

For a change of pace we came here today and had a blast, why? Aisles are wide and clean. Merchandise is different. Their meat and veggie selections were varied and what I'd cook.

The garlic fried chicken looked so yummy but then I saw a fly on the tongs. Maybe another visit. Total at the register was $167+. We had a nice grocery shopping adventure today.

They had 5 choices to choose from: Char Siu Pork, Miso Chicken, Spicy Pork Bulgogi, Smoke Meat and Teriyaki Chicken. These selections come with rice and your choice of Kim Chee, pickled onions or pickled cucumbers. I ordered the Char Siu Pork, Spicy Bulgogi and Teriyaki Chicken bowls with either pickled onions or cucumbers. After we all started eating, I realized I forgot to take pics of the food. I was bummed because I wanted to show how much food I got. All I can say is...for $6, they gave choke amount of food and it was very tasty including the side veggies! The following is what they're offering: - Monday: Kalua Pork Burrito - Tuesday: BBQ Bowl - Wednesday: Loaded Nachos - Thursday: Noodle Bowls - Friday: Kalua Pork Bowl, Mini Bento, $6/lb. Hot/Cold Bar, Select Sandwiches The 2 guys that were serving the food was very nice, helpful and friendly. Not sure if other days have more than one choice like today but I'm definitely coming back to try something else.
