    Lately I've been in the mood for some fried chicken. They have a variety of flavors, crispy honey butter, crispy sweet chili, crispy snow, crispy fried, crispy shoyu, crispy seasoned, and crispy garlic. Placed my order here for 12 pc crispy garlic chicken. Took about 20 mins until my order was ready. Was served hot and fresh. The chicken was crispy and good but I feel like the crispy garlic lacked garlic flavor. I expected it to be more garlic-y. Quality itself is good with pretty big portions of chicken wings.

    Spicy "bone in" chicken with mini mandoo
    Leilani N.

    Food - chicken was yummy, just the perfect amount of spice. Corn was meh, tasted like it list came out of a can. The mini mandoo was good. It would have been better with a dipping sauce but it didn't come with any. Is it just me that love mandoo with dipping sauce? Well, I thought it was a mistake so I went up to the counter. The lady said it doesn't come with sauce and if I wanted sauce it'll be $1. Wait , what?! No, thank you. The cost of 2 plates plus tip came up to almost $30 and not even a small container of dipping sauce? -1 star Service- the lady at the counter wasn't too friendly. She just got off the phone taking an order. Maybe she was tired? An after thought for me, "I should have just ordered at the kiosk" to avoid the unfriendliness. When I went up to ask for the dipping sauce, there was no one at the front and there were a few people waiting. I could see the lady and another younger lady behind the curtain. No acknowledgment, no "we will be right with you", no "thank you for your patience" -1 star Ambiance- when you walk in from their "main door", it's literally an area for you to stand in line (if there was a line). The tables and chairs are shared in a common area with other food venues. This is all inside the Asian market. There's the Mexican place, which I want to try next time and there's also a Korean place. There were maybe 6 tables with 4 chairs each. There was a counter with 4 chairs. It was a bit warm sitting there, you can't feel the AC much. Out of their control so keeping the stars at 3. Would I come here again? Maybe. If I did, I'd come for only the chicken. $12.99 for a chicken plate with 4 bone in chicken pieces, rice, bland corn, and two mini mandoo without dipping sauce OR $17.99 for 10 pcs of chicken.

    I got 3 of the most popular ones.

    Service is good, the place is small just remember that they cook as you order. I placed my order and was told 20 minutes then found out my grandson and his friend was at the house so I ordered more food and that's another 20 min. Their chicken was good.

    CRISPY SWEET CHILI CRISPY HONEY BUTTER RICE CAKE FRIES

    My experience here is always really good. The food is amazing and I always get the honey butter chicken. The kimchi fried rice and the bottom chicken is not from here but from a Korean restaurant in H-mart. Make sure to phone order if you don't want to wait!

    Half order of garlic chicken and kimbap

    I went today to pick up half order of their Honey butter wings. I prefer their dry rubs and this one was so good! Truly hits the spot! It's mix between savory and a bit sweet! I also ordered regular fries to go too. Fries were ok but the wings were delicious!

    Wow. So good.

    Wow. Really great wings. Super great service. Located in HMart food court. Lots of tables. Clean.

    NEW PRICING as of 3/20/25
    Noelani C.

    Wings are always perfect. Our favorite is SNOW and GARLIC. Always call ahead because it can take 20+ minutes. Prices increased recently, so it's definitely just a splurge now.

    This is what I ordered.

    SLOW SERVICE!!! I placed my order at just after 5 pm. I showed up at 5:30 to pick up and I was told would be another 10 min. I could see in the back a huge pile of wings that needed only to be seasoned so I was surprised I needed to wait. Oh well no worries. 20 min later my order was still not ready. I live 5 min away so once I did receive my order I was shocked that my wings were cold. This was my second time having them. First time was amazing. I'll give them another try but at the prices they charge, I shouldn't have had cold wings.

    I have found my new favorite place for wings! This place imo has wing stop beat hands down! We stopped by tonight Wednesday, 3/9/2022 around 6:30 or so. There was no line and the gentleman behind the counter was friendly and helpful. I told him it was my 1st time there and he made a suggestion of their most popular item the #2 crispy shoyu wings. Sold!! I also wanted to try some other menu items so I ordered the regular mini mandoo, #6 crispy honey butter wings, regular fries, and radish. I was going to order a boneless chicken plate as well but was told that they were out of rice and boneless chicken, oh well maybe next time. Everything came out hot and fresh in about 20 minutes. The takeout container for the fries isn't ideal as there is no cover, it's simply a paper boat with aluminum foil inside and the fries on top. Honestly after tasting the fries I didn't ever care, needless to say they never made it home, lol. My husband and I devoured them all in a matter of minutes! They were so crispy and hot that when we were done I regretted not ordering 2. The chicken was amazing! I enjoyed both flavors but prefer the shoyu. The chicken is as the name states crispy and the inside is tender and juicy. The mini mandoo were also delicious and a great deal. I would definitely come back to try other flavors and get more fries but I just found out that they opened a location in Mililani Town Center, which is so much closer to home, so I might be writing my review for that location next hehehe.

He suggested Oh My Grill located in the Pearl Kai shopping center. My first time here I didn't know they have a big menu all kinds of local plate lunches . I ordered their chili plate w/hot dog it was ok on the sweet side . My friend got their seafood combo w/ BBQ chicken it looked good . Next time I'm going to try their fried Saimin it looked good .

We arrived there around…read more9:20pm, placed an order through the kiosk by 9:25pm, but the wait time for our food was over 30mins! We ordered chicken fried noodles, chili spaghetti, and chicken katsu curry. The food was not worth the 30min wait. It is the typical local food very similar to LnL or Loco Moco. We were disappointed because we were expecting really good food since this place was feature on cheap eats & a few other local social media creators IG pages. The price point is good for the amount they give. There are other locations on Oʻahu if you're interested. The vibe of this place is very laid back. It's very clean, bright interior, and lots of white furniture. It seems very cozy. There were some long tables and small ones too. It could be reconfigured to host large groups. The kiosk is easy to use and equally easy to make a payment.

Our server was friendly and the food came out relatively quick. We ordered the potato sampler and were surprised how crispy the tater tot's were!

We also ordered a cookie skillet sundae which was yummy. Happy Eating!

Service was atrocius and the food was fair. I've never had a rude server since Tao Restaurant in Las Vegas back in 2009, and this was the second time. I've never had a server shout at me with a frown on her face, saying "WHAT???" (it happened twice during our meal). I mean, come on, the music is loud, but don't yell at me from across the table with a frown. Also, do not say "Well as you can see, I've got my hands full!" when I ask for a refill politely. Also, do not walk past one of your three tables that you are waiting without looking down or making eye contact. It also looks bad when you are standing against the wall talking constantly with your co-worker instead of waiting on tables. Do not get the "endless" appetizers at this location as long as you have the waitress that we had, you will not get your money's worth, which makes me think this is Buffalo Wild Wing's ploy on cutting costs, which is a horrible idea, because destroying your brand by having poor service likes this warrants reviews like this. This was almost a two-star review until the service knocked it down into the dirt, especially since the last rude wait staff I've had was in 2009, which was 17 years ago. I am not generous with one-star reviews, so that should be revealing. Will not return to this location ever again.
