Hey, it's Zippy's, so everyone knows it can sometimes be a hit or miss, iykyk! But this time, it was definitely a total hit! I ordered the chicken trio plate along with a side of chili. Everything was spot on for this visit. The fried chicken pieces were nice and crunchy, the katsu was perfectly golden, and you already know the rules: two massive scoops of white rice and a solid mound of mac salad. Of course, I had to choke the rice and chicken in the chili. When you need that quick fix and they nail the execution like this, nothing beats it. Glad to catch them on an awesome "hit" day! read more

Zippy's Ewa - Chicken Trio Plate & a side of Chili. - Diners Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I arrived around at 9:00 am.l, 6/14/26 (Sun). I ordered takeout (Chili Rice & Korean Chicken). People were friendly and rushing with call-in, takeouts, and inside dining. My rating is low...didn't bother because of disappointment. I ordered the Korean Chicken using the app, but ordered Chili at the window. They had to delay my Korean Chicken by 10 more minutes...total of 30 minutes. However, my chili came in 10 minutes. I did that because I was hungry. But disappointment came with the chicken. No Korean Sauce. If I wanted just plain fried chicken, I would have told them. The front people are on it, but back crew need reminding or don't sell a product if you ran out of sauce...false advertisement. A guy was standing in front of me in line with 3 plates chicken with no sauce. He left disgusted. It's happening more often at night. Come on Zippy's?! We pay good money for that! However, I called the manager. She said there's a protocol and need to address it with Sunday night team and offered a new plate. I accepted since the plate was not complete. I hope in the future...it's better. Ciao! read more

Food was alright but waitress put in the tip herself without letting me chose how much to tip her she just inputted it on her own and without me knowing got extremely piss cuz how you just gonna make your own decisions for me smh do better read more

The chicken katsu Curr was average. Ate a few pieces and chose not to finish it. My wife ordered Salmon. Two large pieces of awfully smelling salmon arrived. It was dry and white. The smell was so terrible it nearly turned our stomachs. I couldn't believe they served that. Our hostess was very and accommodating hence the reason for two stars as opposed to one. We've visited Zippys before but this was by far our worst dining experience there. read more

I stop by this location when I visit my mom. It's at an accessible location, but the parking can be tight. There's a restaurant section on the right and a to-go counter on the left. It's not a super clean location and the service isn't as friendly as at some of the other Zippy's. But the food is good and consistent and that's really what I'm after when I stop by. read more

I got the chicken trio, everything was good the only complain was the fried chicken was tiny. Not sure I'd seen a smaller fried chicken from them than this. They're also $4 a piece! 3/5 read more

Zippy's Ewa - Chicken Trio - Diners Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

Checked in for a party of 6. We had to wait a bit because of the table we requested for needed to be cleaned. Upon arriving at the table, our party wanted to switch tables. The Host did not get upset and lead us to a different table that we wanted to. As we sat looking at the menu, our Waitress Jadelyn A. asked us if we wanted to order drinks. She took our order and left. After a few minutes, she returned with our drinks. I noticed that she had alot of other tables to take care of. She returned as quickly as she could to take our food order. Maybe 10 minutes later, our food arrives. It was hot and correct. She would check on us from time to time. The only hold up is when we were waiting for our bill. This was expected because of all the takes she was servicing. Overall, our party was happy with our foods and the service. I can't hold her responsible for the wait times, so with that being said, I do give her 5 Star rating. read more

Happy National Chili Day... Yup that's today along with National Strawberry Day and a special recognition for me as well with meeting up with a friend for lunch made it kinda special day and as I drove around like a mission needed to be done I decided to stop at Zippy's and this Ewa location does have a special place in my heart. With a much needed break this I stopped here since they do have lots of free parking and super easy access from either direction you're coming from and the vibe here is relaxing as the dining room is nice and clean, the service here is just so friendly as I jumped to order my regular chili on white rice and it was beanless for me (they have vegetarian as well) and the special was 25% which is huge and who could you some savings...me! You can enjoy their famous chili in so many other ways as mine is on top of spaghetti, but there are Chili Hot Dog, Chili Burger, or just a Chili Plate whatever your cravings they can do it and am so happy to have the lucky timing to enjoy this famous chili on their special day. Thank you! read more

Zippy's Ewa - Receipt - Diners Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I'll love zippy's till the day I die, but just a suggestion for whoever's in charge of Zippy's Ewa: maybe teach your employees that if there's a customer holding up the drive thru line, for whatever reason, for 25 minutes, maybe tell them to go wait somewhere else and service the customers who's food is ready and pulled up when the text told them to. I work in food so I understand shit happens, but let's get it together, huh? Lesson learned: picking up food at the drive-thru is risky. Don't be lazy like I was and just pick up your food inside, unless you like go home to lukewarm food and you gotta warm em up cause you was forced to twiddle your thumbs in the drive thru for almost half an hour. read more

To me, Zippy's is all about comfort food. I don't know if it's the greatest. I know that the quantities have reduced, but the flavor is the same so it brings back a lot of memories. This location and beach is close by so it's easy to swing by and they have both takeout as well as a dine in. The dining room is very cold so anybody who is sensitive to it being a little bit chilly because of the air conditioning bring a jacket as usual. The service of the waitresses are always very good. They always keep your waters filled if you get water. All in all, this is a good example of a well run Zippys read more

I got a fried chicken plate for my son and it was horrible. The chicken was so dry and cold. It was probably sitting out for several hours. He was so hungry he still ate it. Poor thing. I wish this establishment would put more pride and effort into their food. I don't plan on wasting my money here again. read more

Zippy's Ewa - Fried chicken plate - Diners Near Me - Ewa Beach, Hawaii

When you have a hard time deciding where to eat, you can never go wrong with zippys! Love their meat sauce spaghetti and zip pac. Roast pork was a little tough but gravy was good. Ordered through the app, it's fast and easy; so convenient. You even get zip coins that you can later use to get free stuff, unfortunately the rewards expire if not used in a specific time frame! read more

Waited over 20mins for a Zip min and it's not even busy. Fried chicken came out before the zip min. What's in the zip min that will take over 20mins to cook. It only has noodles, won tun and shrimp tempura. Unbelievable always think Ewa Zippys will improve but always their service is so slow. read more

What's going on ZIPPY'S? I had the chili Frank plate, expecting the Miller Hot Dog, only to receive a Soup of your chili on a plate with two red hot dogs?I ordered it without beans. No Meat? Gravy Chili! Wife had the Chili Moco. The scrambled eggs was great, hardly any Chili with Beans, and your Hamburger Patties were really harsh! Unbelievable! I have a relative in Las Vegas who wanted me to check if the local ZIPPY'S are still good. He's right! Your consistency and quality is going down the Toilet!? Don't go down this Road. You know the locals will not follow you any longer. Bring it back! read more

Why does it take 30+ minutes to wait for our food in the drive up line? If our food is ready to be picked up, why are cars waiting so long? Make it make sense! read more

One thing you can unfortunately count on at this location is that your order likely won't be ready on time. The service tends to be consistently slow, which can be frustrating, especially when you're on a tight schedule or expecting a quick pickup. Because of this, I've found myself choosing to drive into Waipahu town instead of returning here. I hope the team can improve efficiency and better manage order timing, as that would make a big difference in the overall experience. read more

We had the fried chicken and Korean fried chicken with Mac salad and fries. The chicken had that delicious crispy skin but moist chicken on the inside, yum! The fries were just fries but we liked their Mac salad the best out of all the ones we tried. We ordered delivery and the Door Dash driver, Blake, was communicative and fast. read more

Terrible service. I work at another Zippys and it's just terrible in comparison to others. Older lady at the drive through didn't come back to help me with just a single plate, a younger gentleman had to ask if I had been helped. Waiting over 20 mins for a single plate I had placed on my way here. read more

food was amazing & fresh. Brought back childhood memories. Customer service was a1. Much aloha read more

Wait time here is ridiculous. Seems like they don't know how to manage this location. Not to sound dramatic but worst Zippy's on island. Currently waiting for almost an hour for my online order. Zippy's corporate do something about this location. read more

Thank you, Dominic Manager for helping me fix my order. Please put on the app that if you want to separate your food, you will be charged $.30 extra. This way eliminate any type of unnecessary long conversation. Other than that, I am very grateful for your help. Have a blessed day. read more

Updated menu, same local food. Happy to see they brought the Clubhouse back & now they serve the full breakfast menu ALL DAY! Service and timing was actually great last night, but it is hit or miss, unfortunately. This location always seems to have their AC at full blast, so just a tip if you have no insulation like me, BRING A JACKET! Enjoy :) read more

The food is what you'd expect from Zippy's; local comfort classics that hit the spot when you're craving something familiar. But the dine-in service at this location is consistently slow. Every time we've tried to eat in, we end up standing around waiting to be seated with zero acknowledgment from the staff. It feels like they forget anyone's out front. Most times, we just give up and order from the takeout counter instead; which is much quicker. If you're hungry and in a rush, skip dine-in and go straight to takeout. You'll get the same food with a lot less waiting. read more

This place is a hit or miss. When it's not busy food takes forever to come out, but when it is busy food is out quick. There are times when you get the best service, no problem and other times it's like whaaaat? Like most occasions when we come for last minute dinner, the hostess has the most unnecessary attitude. You get told to scan QR code to get on the dining wait list (already tried) but if you have a party of 7 & more you have to talk to them and let them know, as per what it says on their QR site. Yet you just get "but did you scan the code?" Like obviously if I did, I wouldn't be talking to you!? You literally saw me walk in with a whole party? Do you not know what it says on your own QR site? Another miss; their Korean fried chicken. Why does it always come out raw in the middle?! It's not only this location too! So disappointing. Even at times their fried chicken is dry! read more

Been here countless times and my experience has always been better than average for this location! This last time was a 5-star experience! Bf and I came in after a long day of travel. We wanted something quick and decided on a Zip Pac for me and Zip Pac Deluxe for him. It was NYE and we felt terrible coming in 30 min before they were closing the dining area at 3 pm for the holiday (We didn't know until we got there). We decided to chance um and checked in with the hostess. She was so kind about accommodating us. We were impressed with the service - no attitude or sassiness as I would have understood given we got there at an inconvenient time. Then the food! Given we were there last minute I was expecting maybe some of the food may have been sitting around already but everything was fresh! The fried chicken and mahi mahi were piping hot out of the oil, not greasy or dried out. Generous serving with the rice, teri beef. Our zip pacs hit the spot having travelled that day and was a perfect meal to start off this trip home. And even better was the Zippy's Ewa team for accommodating us with so much aloha on NYE. Mahalo! read more

Don't EVER use the app to order Bakery items. Ordered a 6" round cake online for pickup in the ewa restaurant,NOT COMPLICATED. got there 10 min later and waited almost 20 min to get my cake order. Waited for my name to clear the in progress board, while others walked up to the cashier and Bakery, ordered and left! In fact I would never use the app to order anything. Never got the update text, had to finally ask about my order. I told cashier it was ordered 30min ago and my name is still on the "in progress" list and I still didn't receive any text updates, she got the cake and and said "have a good one" no thanks for waiting, or so sorry for the wait. Oh by the way, no receipt attached to the bag and finally a text update 7:51pm already in the car.. ordered 7:16pm. ONE ALREADY MADE CAKE. read more

Never been to this zippys before.. I heard it is the busiest location and I dont doubt that...we got here around 9pm on a wednesday night and the counter and dinning room was busy and I can see why we had to wait a good 20 minutes . THe food is always good (prob taste better when you have to wait lol) Anyways of course dinning room and bathroom clean food is always good and prices always on the high side and value is ok but alot of other places with better deals. Its Zippys Doh!!! read more

YUCK! I went only because I "heard" it is a popular spot with the locals. I am local now, moved here this past summer, not a place I would return to. Place is dirty, old, food is like cafeteria food! The steak burgers with gravy were cheap premade soy burgers, with raw onions on top, gravy and potatoes that did not taste homemade. Gross! It might work for a person who was out all night in the club and drunk. Not even that cheap if you ask me. I would compare it to maybe a village inn or even worse. Not going to return. read more

Can you believe it's my very first time checking into Zippys? It will probably be my last time also. This location is huge. Parking is plenty. So much room at the bakery side. The restaurant side is also clean and spacious. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Most of Zippys entries are fried and fried some more and loaded with carbs. Definitely gotta try it. Don't get me wrong, I loved mine. Hot dogs, slice of spam, Korean fried chicken and thigh. Smothered with chili and rice to balance. Not to forget mac salad. My party ordered kids' milk and a few soft drinks and ice tea. Each of them were $5. Yes, $5 for each. Not too happy about that. At least, I can say I have been to Zippys. read more

The new ordering system is frustrating. I called in to preorder because I only had a 30-minute break. When I got to the window, I was told I still had to go inside and wait in line since I was paying cash. That completely defeats the purpose of preordering. It would make a lot more sense if cash payments could be handled at the window instead of adding extra steps. read more
