    Tako with hearts of palm
    April N.

    Zach's food was fantastic. Everyone enjoyed it and it made our celebration special. Appetizers: -tako was impressively tender and the sauce had just the perfect amount of acid--great start -The best part about the bao buns w/seared duck breast was the spicy hoisin sauce. Soup: -everyone loved the lobster bisque and asked for more, to which he gave us all little bowls of it . Nice to have little chunks of lobster in it. Salad: -pesto vinaigrette in the salad was delicious. I liked that the feta was crumbled small--easier to get some in every bite. Seafood: -risotto was perfectly cooked-tender, but still some texture to it. Well seasoned. Nice sized meaty shrimp. Tad bit salty, but works with the risotto together. Everyone loved the ali'i mushrooms and I could taste the truffle which made it heavenly. Beef: -NY steak was just a little overcooked. It was medium well (could've just been mine), but still delicious. Great presentation: Dessert: -that was the best panna cotta I've ever tasted. It was like a cross between panna cotta and creme brûlée. Also, the compote was delicious--perfect amount of sweetness. Tastes fresh. --communication was a breeze and that's a big deal for most people. Zach got back to emails right away and answered his phone. Very much appreciated. --His price per person is very reasonable. Other private chefs are ridiculous. His prices make an experience like this accessible for the non-elite, and we really appreciate that. Definitely will be calling Zach again for future occasions!

    We hired Zach to cater our small house party (19 guests) this past November and we were extremely happy with his food and service! First of all the food... Appetizers: Mini ahi cakes with sesame ginger mustard sauce Oyster shooters with quail egg and ikura Sushi bar: Ahi & salmon nigiri, Spicy ahi handrolls (rolled to order) Caterpillar rolls Salad & Starch: Panzanella salad Pesto pasta with blistered cherry tomatoes Entrees: Garlic shrimp over truffle risotto and mushrooms Prime rib with au jus and creamy horseradish Desserts: Tahitian vanilla panna cotta Assorted macarons Everything was very delicious! Our guests were so happy and stuffed. We were especially happy to have the leftovers for the next couple days, haha. Service: Zach was very responsive and helpful in planning our menu. He arrived on time and worked very clean in our kitchen. He did a great job helping us utilize the space in our kitchen and dining room; turning our kitchen island into a sushi bar and found the perfect spot for a prime rib carving station. Zach was also very professional, friendly and easy to work with. We would certainly hire Zach again and would highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for a great chef to cater their next event!

    Ige's Lunchwagon & Catering

    (181 reviews)

    Two weeks ago, I saw a group on FB called 808 Best Lunch Wagons, Restaurants & Entertainments that…read moresomeone had posted the menu for Ige's and saw that Wednesday they would have baked spaghetti, my favorite going to school. Wednesday, had the internet fixed in the morning, picked up my cousin at 10:30 and she gave me directions to Ige's because all this time, I didn't know they were still in business. Oops. Ige's is located in the Waimalu area behind Goodwill on Kam Hwy. There's several small businesses back there and all these driveways, you can miss this place easily. On the main driveway, there's a bike path that crosses it, and an old guard shack. After this, you want to take the second driveway on the left. You know you're going down the right path when you see Guieb restaurant on the left, which I also didn't know was here. And drive all the way to the end. Ige's is the very last store on the left. You'll see the lunch line. They are only open for lunch from Tuesdays to Fridays from 9:30 am - 1 pm, so you should plan ahead. The regular menu differs each day and for now, the daily specials have remained unchanged. But to make sure, check out their IG @igesaiea. When you get there, they do have some grab and goes that are not advertised. As far as pricing, they are pretty reasonable, regular plates are between $13 - $16. However, the portions, let's say it's really heavy. My cousin got a mixed plate of chicken hekka and pork teriyaki. And I got the baked spaghetti, no rice, with toss and Mac salad. And the spaghetti filled half the plate with a good amount of height. Ige's is counter only, a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Therefore there are no seats. I asked my cousin if she wanted to grab a table at Neal Blaisdell park down the street and she quickly declined. So we drove back to her house for lunch. My cousin did enjoy her chicken hekka and pork. I'm didn't get to taste it because I was too involved with my meal. At first glance, it wasn't the brick, lasagna-style like school where there was a thick layer of cheese on top. However, without the cheese, it was still tasted the same from what I could remember. Because the portion is heavy, my cousin could only eat a fourth of her lunch while I thought I better tap out at 1/3. So she didn't need to make dinner for her family while I had dinner and lunch for the next day. Although the interaction was short, the counter person was pleasant and very helpful. As you look into the kitchen, you can see a lot of people hustling back there as they also do catering. I'll be away for two weeks but I am looking forward to picking up lunch when I get back and I am definitely brining family here, I just need to figure out a good place for a picnic.

    There are 3 related but separately owned and operated family catering food businesses on Oahu, and…read moreall are home-style cooking: * Ige's Lunchwagon & Catering (Aiea); owned/operated by Ron Ige since 1990. * Ige's (Halawa). Operated by members of the extended Ige Family, focusing on buffet catering and bento services. * Ige's Catering (Mapunapuna). Originally established by Rachel Ige since 1969, opening out of Masa's Cafeteria. This review is for Ige's Lunchwagon & Catering (Aiea). I remember years ago I once ordered pork nishime ala carte, and it was so flavorful and with the generous serving, it lasted for several meals! Because I don't live nearby, I lost track of following the Instagram/Facebook menu and the short weekday hours. Thanks to Yelper Sach T. for reminding me what Ige's has to offer! This Aiea-based business is known for its generous portions of local plate lunches, catering services, and Okinawan-style dishes like sweet sour spareribs and shoyu pork. It offers daily lunch specials and catering for events, with a reputation for large, affordable meals with leftovers. Their lunch menu for the weekdays include: turkey/chicken ala king, Korean fried chicken, fresh corned beef, meatloaf, pork tofu, roast turkey, chicken curry, checken hekka, pork teri, hamburger steak, Hawaiian plate, tripe/beef stew, long rice, bbq spareribs, shoyu chicken, roast pork, chicken fried steak/katsu, catch of the day. In addition, their weekly specials per weekday include: teri beef tips, sweet sour spareribs, curryburger stew, pork cutlet w/ gravy, shoyu chicken, baked spaghetti, fried saimin, fried chicken thighs, chicken long rice, turkey tail adobo, baked luncheon meat, fresh fish patties, pork nishime, chow fun w/ pork teri, baked rosemary chicken, and catch of the day. Plus, maki sushi and cone sushi are available. Plate lunches can come with rice. mac salad, chow mein, and pickled onions; but if you want all entrée, it's $1 more. It's astounding to think of what is available! Our recent visit included our ordering of: * Sweet sour spare ribs. This is exactly how I like my sweet sour spare ribs - vinegary, meat easily off the bone or tendon, lots of gravy over rice! Old-school cooking brings back memories of eating this when growing up! * Chicken hekka. Lots of long rice, chicken, celery, green onions, shiitake make this old-school cooking dish a winner! * Maki/cone sushi. Nice flavors to this sushi that are good for snacking! Great entrees to order in place of having to cook, as they lasted for several meals for hubby and myself! Items were pre-ordered over the phone to ensure that Ige's didn't run out of food and due to the short hours that they are open. Phone orders were done processed quickly, as they just asked for your name by friendly staff. There is a separate phone order pick-up area to expedite paying and receiving your order. Otherwise, you'll find a line of customers waiting to order in the regular order line. No dine-in, as it is strictly take-out. Hours of operation are short, Tues to Fri only from 9:30a to 1:00p only; Mon and weekends closed. Free parking available in large lot shared by other businesses in the complex. Staff works out of a kitchen behind Cutter Ford in Aiea in a "lunchwagon" style of services. Known for its delicious old-school local cuisine, extensive food choices, generous portions, affordable meals, authentic flavors, and friendly customer service, Ige's Lunchwagon & Catering in Aiea is a great place for lunch or dinner! And especially if you're too lazy to cook!

    Haven't been here since in a long time. Generally traffic makes it difficult to exit so I forego…read moreretrying. Today I decided to try picking up dinner since traffic was great! Luckily I had cash as there is a 3% credit card fee. Best to get set combo plates or food is charged by the pound. Forgot to snap a pick of the poke counter as the inside is very tiny and didn't want to block the counter. Poke looks fresh...maybe next time. Although it was nice to try, I found some of the items were a bit salty. Surprisingly I enjoyed a fish with mushroom offering that I thought was mushroom lasagna with white sauce. Lol no pasta in this dish. 4 stars for offering a variety of options. There is something for everyone! Support local and help keep small businesses like this survive!

    I haven't been here in years. Was headed to workout, so figured I'd eat something small. I…read moreordered a half pound container of stew, which was two small pieces of meat, a tiny piece of potato, and two small pieces of carrots. No rice. Just the stew. I was floored when the cashier said it was $14 and change. Everyone knows the 1/2 pound poke containers, and know how small it is. We're talking beef stew. NOT poke! So I'm figuring, they charge about $30 a lb? I can't believe what was in the container weighed even 1/2 pound. Cashier suggested the mini plate which was $13 and change. One scoop rice and about 10 chopped pieces of lettuce as the salad. Oh, and the stew dumped on the mini container from the half pound container. I should've went to Ige's down the street. The stew was salty. One good thing was the beef was soft and not tough. Cashier was nice too. This is the only reason for 2 stars. Hard pass on the prices here with average tasting stew. Paid cash to avoid any 3% service charge!
