    Chicken Trio
    Abby B.

    Wanted to see Jason Momoa's favorite place in Hawaii, so I decided to give Zippy's a try before heading to the airport. I ordered a Chicken Trio: 1 Chicken, Katsu, and Korean Chicken ($20). It was okay. The chicken itself is good, flaky, juicy, and tender. The katsu is good for a grab-and-go style fast food option, but the Korean Chicken was alright. The portion itself is pretty generous, but this place is on the pricier side for takeout. Zippy's itself is quite large. There is a lot of seating and a big parking lot, which was nice. Inside was pretty clean, but nothing special. We ordered online, and it was ready quickly. I also got the lilikoi drink, which was really good. If you guys know what Jollibee is, I think that tops this place pretty easily.

    When entertaining out of town family, this is a must go to place for good local service and food. With friendly staff and a comfortable atmosphere, it's a great place for a relaxed dinner. Our one problem tonight was one of the orders we placed was wrong. A couple of yummy pancakes is not the same as a Belgian waffle, no matter how good. The affected family member chose to just go with it as the server, Rose, was a really nice lady. We also got the loco moco, the Korean chicken plate, the mini fried noodles, and a vegetable omelet. The portions are generous and all were delicious.

    Next stop Zippy's. Came for breakfast. Left happy and full. Service is always pleasant in the morning. They are all so happy to greet and seat you.

    Finally! Zippy's Kahului food tastes like Zippy's Food! Since they opened the food wasn't good at all. But today it was spot on! Love it. Burrito chili plate and fried chicken Mahalo to the amazing server Amie / Amy. Such great customer service!

    Zippy's definitely lived up to the hype when it comes to the fried chicken. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor -- easily some of the best comfort food I've had on the island. The portions were solid too. The only downside was the wait time. It took quite a while to get our food, and the line moved pretty slowly. If they could speed things up a bit, it would easily be a 5-star experience. Still, the fried chicken alone makes it worth coming back.

    Zippy's has become our new tradition when visiting. This location has been our best experience so far. The parking lot was full of cars (good sign). And I like that they had a full service dine in section and an order at the counter/seat yourself section. We chose to order at the counter, same food but you don't have to tip. We ordered: Fried chicken plate: we come for their fried chicken! Crispy outside, juicy inside. Well flavored. Always consistently good. Korean fried chicken: I don't remember seeing this on the menu before. Chicken bites were fried and sauced with a sweet, garlic sauce. Good, would def order again. Trio plate: came w fried chicken, Korean chicken and katsu chicken. All were good. Katsu was pretty krispy. Decent portion. Place was clean with a lot of seating.

    Chili Moco

    We tried twice to come here. The first night they only had one cook, so we didn't wait for a table. We came the next night and were apprehensive, but the food surprisingly came out fast. It wasn't amazing, but I would compare it to a Hawaiian Denny's. They never had malasadas when we were there. You can also order at the to-go counter if you don't want to dine in.

    Finally got to try the famous Zippy's aka the Denny's of Hawai'i & honestly? I get it. I had the Korean fried chicken breakfast... Chicken was perfectly crispy, came with eggs, rice, & spam! Made me super full is all I can say! My friends all got different things (classic breakfast plates, chili spaghetti, etc.), & everyone left satisfied. The chili spaghetti is apparently what they're known for & my friend really enjoyed it! It's very much a family-style diner vibe, nothing fancy, just good food. Place is big. Cleanliness was okay. Everything is at a very decent price, especially for the portions you get! If you're looking for a casual local spot, for sure check this place out.

    Loco Moco
    Sara C.

    I know it's a chain, but you HAVE to visit Zippy's if you're in Maui. Their Loco Moco was the best that we've tried on the island (and we tried a lot). Loco Moco is a sort of "comfort food" that is a hamburger patty on top of a bed of white rice, topped with a fried egg and brown gravy. It's like a hug in a plate/bowl, so you have to get this if you're anywhere in Hawaii, at least once! We even loved it so much that we used TWO of our meals in Maui visiting Zippy's and having Loco Moco. The interior design of Zippy's is very classic, like a grandma's house almost, with beige walls, and cute Hawaiian themed paintings all over. I'm sure they have lots of other items aside from Loco Moco, but that was the one and only thing we got there, so I definitely recommend it!

    Wun Tun Min
    Megan Y.

    Finally made it around to trying Zippy's after hearing about it on all my past visits to the islands! We came at around 9 am on a Sunday and waited a few minutes to be seated (it wasn't crowded but I assume they had limited staff to tend to all the tables). When we were seated, we placed our orders and got our food in probably 5 minutes or less which was impressive. The coffee was ripping hot, not the best but did the job. We got the April special which was Korean fried chicken and chili for $14-pretty good deal and a won ton min. For us, the won tun min was the real star. The broth was super clean yet flavorful, and the large had a ton of dumplings in it too! Service was nothing super special, but enough to get what we needed in a timely manner. The chicken was good too, but we did have a lot of fat chunks in our pieces which we weren't the biggest fans of, but perhaps just a personal taste thing.

    Chicken Trio
    Melissa N.

    Stopped by on the way to the airport at 4:30pm on a Sunday and initially turned towards the dine-in side which was completely empty save for two tables of people, and was told there'd be a less than 20 minute wait. Which I hope was true but our group of three decided to just go to the take out side and chose the dine in option. My chicken trio came out immediately but the other two dishes, loco moco and zip deluxe took another 10-15 minutes. Food once it came out was good, would say very average. My fav was the korean chicken. Was hard to find a clean table. My friends liked their food a lot.

    Chicken 3 ways
    Michael V.

    Zippy's is a nostalgic place for my girlfriend in Hawaii. So we stopped for lunch after taking the Maui pineapple tour. Zippy's is often busy and our trip was no exception. The monitor display for the waiting list wasn't complete, the hostess was using a different list and seated other parties that weren't on the monitor. But after about 20 minutes we were seated at a booth. Our server took drink orders and returned with the drinks to take our food orders. I had the chicken 3 ways, Korean fried chicken, chicken katsu, and fried chicken, with French fries. My girlfriend opted for the fried chicken. Both of our meals were good. Mine was too much to finish but I enjoyed all 3 styles of chicken. I snuck a few bites og my girlfriend's Mac salad. A trip to Hawaii isn't complete without some Mac salad imo. Service was good and the food was tasty. I wish that the waiting list displayed everyone waiting to be seated rather than just the people who used the QR code system.

    Fried Chicken

    This was one of our favorite meals from our trip to Maui! Unpretentious, straight-forward, and solid. Reasonable prices, quick and friendly service (shoutout to Sarah, our waitress!). This beat some of the other more "popular" places in Kihei in our opinion. This is a must try if you're visiting Maui! Edit: We loved it so much, we went again the next day and tried the Korean Fried Chicken Breakfast. It was 10/10. Coming from LA where we have Korean fried chicken places like Kyo Chon and BBQ chicken, we were very impressed. Our waiter, Kalani, was very quick and attentive. Visitors to Maui, don't sleep on Zippy's!!

Lots of seating, good for groups. You order then sit (I believe) as thats what most people were doing. They bring you your food (think pancake & Waffles) when it's ready and you grab your own condiments. I ordered The Bento because I couldn't make up my mind. It included rice, mac salad,1 slice spam, Mochiko Chicken, BBQ Beef, and 2 large pieces of Shrimp Katsu. Mochiko Chicken is light and crispy and the Shrimp Katsu was battered and huge. The BBQ Beef was succulent and juicy however the sauce wasn't overwhelming. Spam is spam. The rice was a tad dry however the mac salad was good. I did not eat any of the other plates however since all were empty, Im assuming it was Ono. Next to the register there is a display case with various desserts. The next day going home, we stopped by to grab some dessert. The Lava Rocks come in a pair at $5.50. Moist, soft and super chocolaty. The chocolate haupia bar was very nice and not overly sweet. The Chantilly brownie was very chocolaty with a hint of Chantilly and nuts only on top. Both bars were a Shareable size. Overall the staff is very helpful and friendly, the restaurant itself, very bright & open and the food was very Ono! Highly recommend.
