The husband and wife duo is so nice and patient. If I had any complaint, it would be that I wish they still did rounds in the neighborhood so I wouldn't have to leave home.

When on da west side, this place can't be denied!" SERVICE: fully staffed n' accommodating, asked if the garlic furikake chicken could be half spicy (so my son could eat the chicken too) n' at first they said that would be a 3 item plate but then understood that I wasn't asking for more chicken n' were able to do in addition to the braised beef shortribs INTERIOR: good amount of seating, merch available for sale EXTERIOR: have shaded table seating WAIT TIME: ordered right away, 20 mins for food to come out PARKING: free lot in front with plenty of spaces OVERALL COMMENTS: A 2 meat combo plate can easily feed two people. The spicy garlic furikake chicken is crispy, saucy, n' brings the heat. Give a good amount of pieces. The braised shortribs are so juicy, tender, n' flavorful...a must order. To add even more flavor, the chili peppah watah makes everything next level with a slight kick n' tang. The egg Mac salad is a nice balance to the whole meal. If you're looking for somewhere to eat in Kapolei, this is it!

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile, so when my colleague suggested we go for lunch, I…read morewas excited! This restaurant is super casual, where you order at the counter. The food ordered shows up in plastic containers and every table has a huge bottle of Chili Watah... staff is friendly and quick. In terms of food I went for the Garlic Furikake Chicken with a side of Mac salad. The portions are enormous here, enough to cover a couple meals! Taste was great, especially when you add some of the Watah to it. I ate as much as I could, but probably ate only three quarters of the dish. Later in the evening I was still full, skipping dinner. It's a good spot to go in Kapolei for some Filipino-Hawaiian Grindz!

I really enjoy Camille's Hawaiian Food, besides Hawaiian food, Camille's has local foods too! The…read morestaff is really friendly and there's entertainment here too! Its feels like eating at your friend's grandma's house, will this is how I feel, home comfort food vibe whenever I grab take out or dine in. Camille's Hawaiian Food is tucked all the way in Waipahu at Westgate Center, there are many shops here and it blends in but look for the wooden board out front with the daily specials. The prices at Camille's are reasonable and the portions size are great too, you really get bangs for your bucks here. I like they have the options of mini and regular plates. I've been here a total of 3 times, first time we tried the Hawaiian food, got take out, and most recently dined in and luckily we got some entertainment. We enjoyed the Hawaiian food, but I have to give credit to the other local foods we tried so far I got the pork chops with mushroom, garlic shrimp, crack chicken and smoked meat fried rice. Everything was tasty, really enjoyed it but just the crack chicken may be on the sweeter side, I would request for light sauce. The macaroni salad was fire! Rice cooked perfectly! There are many goodies in the fridge, pistachio cake, Ho'i'o salad, dried Aku, Opelu, Smoke Marlin, pickle onions, smoke tako, dried shrimp, drinks, and even Dubai chocolates! There are T-shirts, snacks, candies, chips for sale in front of cashier and towards the back of store. I love the color green and had to get a slice of pistachio cake, ($5.) what a treat, its been awhile since I last had pistachio cake. It was a huge slice, shared w/the hubby. It was yummy, so refreshing and moist. When I had my last bite, it got a little too sweet means I need to stop eating. hehe. Check out Camille's, support local. Oh I remember that the business is named after the owner's daughter.

We usually cater from Laverne's on NYE but my husband wanted to give this place a try. We had eaten…read morethere once so we trusted that our catering experience would be as good. Big mistake! We ordered 8 pans which came out to $842.00. A price we don't mind paying IF it was worth it. Lau Lau: Tiny, didn't see any fat and leaves were undercooked, taste was ok Squid Luau: This was the most disappointing of all! It had this weird watery taste, didn't see any squid and not much coconut milk. Pan was tossed. Rice: This is a no brainer since we are in Hawaii, unfortunately some of the rice was hard and brown at the top (looked like it was scraped from the bottom of the pot) Macaroni Salad: Very bland, had to add salt Kalua Pig: Taste was good (only winner) Smoked Meat: Only my husband liked it Chicken Long Rice: Another huge disappointment, it was really soupy, basically more liquid than noodles and chicken Hoio Salad: Some of the fern shoots were so tough and I found myself spitting them out Overall: For the price we paid, this was NOT worth it and we felt embarrassed for our guests. Back to Laverne's we go. You know that saying: If ain't broke don't try and fix it.

Mexican food on wheels! Although this place does catering, they also have a food truck!…read more Last night I noticed a truck up the street from where I live. I then noticed it was back again this morning! I looked up the name on Instagram and found out they were serving up Mexican food! My hubby loves Mexican so we had to try it out. First off, the customer service was amazing! They talked story with us, asked tons of questions about what we wanted in each order since everything is made to order. Here's what we got: 1. Beef Nachos: we ordered the small portion but this was HUGE! It has cheese, choice of beef or chicken, onions, cilantro, & sour cream. My hubby loves nacho cheese so he loved this! There was a generous portion of beef on top too. 2. Cheese Quesadilla: this was actually a kids quesadilla but it was definitely a regular sized one! It was simple with just cheese & tortilla but, they did not skimp on the cheese. It was THICK! 3. Chicken Burrito: this was definitely the star of the show! It was HUGE! Hubby and I shared it and couldn't finish it. It was stuffed with pico, flavorful chicken, cheese, sour cream, beans & rice. It was messy but sooo good! Highly recommend! Overall, it's dangerous how often and close they are to where we live! We'll definitely be back!

HOH TALK ABOUT MAYJAHHHHH!…read more First time here but was told these Braddahs come to Ho'opili every Thursday. I was kind of skeptical from ordering, since most restaurants In Hawaii that serve Mexican food, kind of give less than what it's truly worth. So I asked the local braddah "is it a lot?" And he assured me that if I'm not satisfied he would fully refund me. So I waited..... when I was called he showed me my order- carne Asada fries, and let me tell you... it can feed more than a family of 4. I never got his name but my bro, for serving great customer service along w great food.

I didn't even get a photo of them all there's a whole shelf that I missed with stuff that wasn't cold and custom boxes. Place was extremely clean well kept and organized. It was definitely nice that they had an outdoor area as well as an indoor area with the bar. Plenty of seating bring your friends. Was happy to sit with the manager and the bartender and chat! Place was great. We would absolutely come back again next time we are in the area.

My buddy and I stopped by here specifically to get their smash burgers, but unfortunately, the…read moregriddle was down, so no entrée items on the right side of the menu (sandwiches, burgers, sausages) were available. Our server informed us that it had been off and on for the past week, but went down since Friday. Not good for only being open for a year. They only had appetizers and salads, along with their bar, which offers a wide range of beers and wine by the glass, along with cocktails. Since we were technically "working", that had to wait for another time. Our server, Erin, was so nice and apologetic, even tho it wasn't her fault. For obvious reasons it was fairly slow, for a normal Sunday lunch crowd. Since we were pressed for time, we ended up just ordering a couple of appetizers; the sausage bites and chicken. They were both tempura style battered, and served with sauce or mustard on the side. The sausage had a slight spice to it, which was nice, and it was served piping hot pot of the fryer. A fork would've been nice, but they were small enough to eat by hand, but be careful, because they're pretty tough to bite thru. The chicken bites were smaller and easier to handle, although they were a bit dry, so the ranch furikake dipping sauce helped. We were out within 20 minutes, so very fast, and I'm hoping the griddle gets repaired soon, so I can try their burgers.

Aji Ramen 2.0 New…read moreownership, but still excellent service! We were sad to miss the previous owners before their last day. They mentioned to us that they were transferring ownership, but on their last week of service, the business was shut down - I'm assuming - due to the crazy weather and loss of electricity. We loved that family. They were so generous and welcoming! I hope they are prosperous and happy throughout their next adventure! :) Thankfully, this new crew who took over hold the same spirit! We've been in 4 times since, and the staff has been consistently friendly, welcoming, and very attentive. Everything moves quickly & smoothly, so we remain impressed with Aji Ramen. The service is fast & efficient from start to finish without feeling rushed, even during peak hours. Major plus! The restaurant itself is still clean, well-kept, and nicely organized in the front of the house, which makes the whole experience even more comfortable. The food comes out fresh, hot, and really delicious - definitely comforting food at a great price point. What more could you ask for? :) One small tip: bring a jacket! It's pretty chilly inside. This is perfect if you're enjoying a hot bowl of noodles, but for those who aren't or who run cold, you might be shivering. Haha Oh and their free dessert is so addicting! On all 4 visits, the end of our meal came with a large bowl delivered to the table. It's like shave ice with condensed milk, brown sugar boba, with 2 mini boba jelly (sorry I'm not a boba connoisseur lol!) - strawberry and passion fruit flavor I think. Anyways, it's delicious! Go check them out!!

We visit the seafood cartel often. The food is always good. Staff is pretty nice…read more Our last visit was on Friday, May 22nd and I just wanted to give the cooks recognition. The food was the best we've ever had there. The guacamole was well seasoned and delicious and my tostada was fresh and yummy. Look at the presentation! Whoever was cooking/prepping that day really cared about what they put out and did a fantastic job!

I wanted to like this place but I just can't. Starting off with the environment, the place is chill…read moreand overall good vibes. There are just so many mosquitoes and flies... I understand the restaurant can't control that. The seats and tables are feeble and some of the chairs are bent and falling apart... y'all are telling me that they have so many customers and they can't afford new seating arrangements ? Hmmm ok ... people were literally sitting on warped chairs... Now the food... my husband and I ordered a ceviche, two tacos and salsa. Salsa was fine, there was honestly nothing extraordinary about it. The tortilla chips were good. The ceviche when given was like warm.... The shrimp was still grey... I understand how ceviche is made but the shrimp was still so raw and GREY... the fish tacos were solid tho but I wouldn't eat here again... the place is kind of dirty

Two words: WAFU STEAK!!…read more Its been nearly 8yrs since I've been to this hidden gem in Ewa Beach. Management changed but their WAFU steak is exactly the same. The sizzling and aroma of the steak makes my mouth water every time. Hands down the best steak I crave for when I go back home. I dont know of anyone else that does it better. The other stuffs on the menu is ok but my sole rating is just for the WAFU STEAK The service was ok. We had a big group so I can understand the service. The place is not big and it's usually 1 or 2 people working the place. If you don't like their Wafu Steak then your mouth is broken. I hope they stay open for a long time.

So you can imagine the pure joy I experienced when I walked into Gina's and recognized the banchan, size and char on meats, the smell, being surrounded by local families and friendly faces behind the counter. My heart leapt for joy seeing that I could have both fish jun AND kalbi and if I wanted I could've gotten a third choice. My eyes spotted a familiar side dish of seasoned potatoes, which I left it for the next person and got the daikon, perfectly seasoned not dry at all jap chae, and kim chi cucumbers. When I took my first bit into the kalbi, life was made good again. It was reset and welcome home I needed. It was a perfectly cut and marinated kalbi. The fish Jin was seasoned so well I barely needed to dip it into a sauce. The portions could have fed 2. I asked if they were related to the Gina's in Market City. Bro, this is the OG Gina's!! The owner said they sold the other one and his mom helped him start this one. It looked like the whole family was behind the counter. I wanted to cry. Not all things have changed in Hawai'i! Some things got better! OG Gina's being in Kapolei is one of em.

Their portions and prices are insane... in a good way! Their specials change weekly Monday-Sunday. The lunch specials from 9:30am-2pm are $10.50 and after 2pm is $11.75. All day specials are $11.75. They always post the specials menu on their IG, so you can check there before you go - @garden_island_cafe :) The chicken katsu was crunchy and yummy! They cut their pieces a bit wide though... but the portion was filling! I had leftovers. The gon lo mein was tasty and had lots of flavor. They loaded it with lots of BBQ chicken too! I also had leftovers of that. The lady at the counter was very friendly... she said I came at a good time before the crazy lunch rush. I always like to call in my order so that I don't have to wait and I can just pick up and go. They do have a few tables to eat on if you'd like to dine in.
