    Went right when they opened at 2 PM and were seated immediately. The weekend prime rib completely blew me away.. it was the most tender and best prime rib I've ever had. It honestly puts restaurants that specialize in prime rib to shame. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. The seafood pasta was also excellent. You could actually taste the seafood in the sauce instead of it just being tomato sauce. The interior is a little dated and the seats aren't the most comfortable, but the food more than makes up for it. I'll definitely be back anytime I'm in Haleiwa and highly recommend you try the prime rib (only on weekends Fri- Sun).

    Excellent service, super casual ambiance, and good food. Our server Phalakone was so very nice, fast with the orders and the food. She's the epitome of a great human being. We ordered the Tuna poke bowl and the Thai wings. Both of which we're good, filling, and a lovely late afternoon snack. Seating is both indoors and outdoors so find a good place to sit and enjoy time with your friends or family while getting some good grinds.

    Prickly pear margarita and taro pork slider

    I first have to give a shout out to Silky are waitress/ bartender! Her recommendations were so on point, and her service was impeccable! The pork slider on a fresh taro bun to die for!! the shrimp and rice absolutely the best even better than the shrimp truck I usually go to! Not to mention her drinks were fire! The ambience were in Hawaii need to say more?! definitely recommend anything on the happy hour menu because we tried it all!

    Kalua pig slider + pot stickers (1 missing bc I ate it)

    Happy Hour daily 2-6pm (food + drinks) Everything I got was less than $10 except the shrimp plate, $16. Their fuji apple highball is a light, sweet premade mix from a japanese can. A refreshing treat after a long morning of hiking and 'āina work. . Staff here give solid service with easy going north shore vibes (: . keep the country, country aloha \m/

    Chowder
    Kristen A.

    I came to Oahu two years ago for work and we happened to stop here for lunch. We planned a trip this weekend for my husbands birthday and I told him we could do whatever he wanted but we must stop at Uncle Bo's for their Kalua Pork Sliders and local beer. The service was fast and friendly, we shared the sliders, some pot stickers and a bowl of chowder. Everything was hot, fresh and flavorful and the prices were fair. Also loved sitting out on the patio in the nice spring breeze listening to music that wasn't too loud

    Shrimp pasta and SOS
    Jenna S.

    The food here was not good, and definitely not worth the price. The only good thing about this spot was our waitress, she was super nice and even took the nachos off of our bill. Bottom line: Haleiwa offers tons of good fresh food, most of the food trucks are better than here. I do not recommend especially if you are here visiting/on vacation. Spinach dip: dry and lacked flavor. Nachos: very weird. The Kalua pig is sautéed in a tomato sauce and the sauce pools on the bottom of the dish (making chips soggy). They also throw in chunks of ham? And load it with mozzarella cheese...overall the sauce was SWEET and the flavors just did not go well together. Thankfully the waitress was nice and understanding enough to take it off the bill. Crab cakes: large but the crab was mushy not chunks. SOS: good but not $40 good.

    Quite possibly the worst loco moco I've ever had! The hamburger itself was good. However, the gravy was thin (demi-glacé) and the rice had hard bits (probably not enough water during the cooking process). Also, the utensils weren't very clean. There was dried food (?) still stuck on the fork (pictured). Overall, service was lacking. The fork wasn't addressed with the server because we were mostly ignored. The Uncle Bo's restaurant in town is preferable to this location.

    Loco moco

    Arrived shortly after opening and was seated right away. We were able to watch football on the tv screens. Ordered the favorites: loco moco, dynamite shrimp, Boca rota with extra bread and kids grilled cheese. Everything was so YUM!

    Gluten sensitive menus as of October 2025
    Cody-Ann I.

    Gluten sensitive mom+ kiddo and wanted to share the menu. Within 20 min of consuming gluten I get a migraine behind my eye and no migraines from Uncle Bo's in Haleiwa. I ordered the kalua pig fried rice. It wasn't as spectacular as the reviews, assuming the gluten version is much tastier. But it was enough to tie me over until dinner. I ordered online and it was very simple. There's an option for GF and I also added it to the notes just to make sure. Easy peasy. I'm must note I do not have a gluten allergy so I didn't inquire about cross contamination.

    Dinner time

    This place is locally owned which is nice and has a variety of menu options. They have inside and outdoors Seating. Service is great staff is very attentive. We got there 25min before HH ended so were offered the HH menu. Good choices of wine and appetizers on the HH but it's the same price on their normal menu. We got our food out very quickly surprisingly. All food lacked flavors and didn't come out fresh! Something as simple as Spicy Ahi Poke was so blend. Dynamite shrimp came with rice infused with garlic. Thai chicken wings were chewy, pot stickers were ok. Overall service was great but food quality lacked.

    Kalua pork sliders
    Michaela S.

    Went for happy hour and enjoyed it! The spicy garlic shrimp was yummy! $16 for 6 shrimps seem a little overpriced but it was not your usual garlic shrimp. Very delicious! Also tried the kalua pork sliders which tasted like bbq pork sliders, but on a taro bun. Delicious and decent deals. I wouldn't say it's the best happy hour, but definitely decent deals!

    Pizza sticks or bites
    Kaay G.

    I went for happy hour , it was pretty empty but I think because the restaurant had just opened . I just got the pizza from the happy hour menu. And it was perfect for a quick snack after the beach

    Sean Y.

    Food was good, service was extremely slow. We were there for almost 3 hours. If the service improves the food was good enough to be back. Lots of parking and the ambiance was worth it.

Can't really complain because I believe the sour drink with alcohol in. It would've tasted very good lol but we opt out for alcohol and ask for mocktails. We tried the calamari, which I enjoyed way more than my entrée. The garlic shrimp was OK. I liked that it had a lot of sauce and flavor. Can't beat the garlic shrimp trucks, but it was pretty good. The local mall was also really good different. I wasn't too much of a fan of it. Overall experience was great. The service was nice. The parking was easy to find the ambience was beautiful outdoorsy love that. Definitely gives that beach house vibes for sure.

For drinks, it depends on taste and preferences. I was bummed on this one. Mainly looking fwd to the drinks and it didn't satisfy my tastebuds. It was too twisted, fusion, modified etc. i prefer a mai tai a plain old fashioned mai tai without the fixings. The orange foam was too strong it overwhelmed the dark rum im used to and prefer. So i decided to try the ube rey instead which was much better but still not as much to my liking/preferences. Went back to Aulani a but bummed and decided to get another at Aulani the next day instead and I will say, i liked it better as it followed the more traditional way of making it. So if you prefer traditional ways, this may not be for you and if planning to drink, simply keep with the simplier generic drinks, wine or beer. If you prefer to try different ways and flavors, then you will love this. Service was great and our server was attentive at all times. Thank you. Ambiance was good but outdoor seating may be a bit of a nuance due to flies swarming around you often. The swinging table fan helps but are still annoying plus the tropical heat also didn't help.
