Large Saimin modding first bite....
Pat F.

I'm biased as we have no Zippy's at home but adore this business! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's two sides of service as you walk in. Fast food style service at the counter and similar seating to the left side. And a host station seating diners in more comfortable booths and tables to the other side[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I think some items are just slightly more expensive in the full service side? Think the Dennys of Hawaii which my great server agreed to when I told her how excited I was to be there. They have great breakfast all day I think, fried chicken, signature chili(like Nalley's canned only more "Zippy" with seasoning) , and plate lunch style offerings. Some people like their baked goods like malasadas and some cream puff types of things. This isn't the best version ever of these foods but a very reliable quality and portion size at very good prices for Hawai'i. Often more locals than us Haole tourists. We ordered the special Korean fried boneless chicken and rice with a scoop of corn and chili with beans for 13.99$ and I got a large Saimin with char su pork fish cake and choy sum. The noodles was very generous and great broth. A little sparse in the pork but a lot of goodies for sure! My wife kept dipping into my broth..... Her combo was good and she could only eat half. Snack for later!! Again not the best ever if these dishes but great friendly service and big portions at a fair price. If they brought one to Seattle I would be there a lot during work days for breakfast or lunch!! I insisted on getting my last meal and last anything again later that week on a Sunday night going to the airport(nearby) and it was backed up with locals waiting to order takeout on one side and sit down in the dining room!

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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Zippy's itself is quite large. There is a lot of seating and a big parking lot, which was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was pretty clean, but nothing special.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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.

Vegetable omelet
Michelle N.

When entertaining out of town family, this is a must go to place for good local service and food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]With friendly staff and a comfortable atmosphere, it's a great place for a relaxed dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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.

Spam and eggs, I thought we only had this in Texas, I was wrong. Delicious

We searched up Zippys on our vacation and it was filled with locals so we knew we were in for a treat. Breakfast was the time of the day but, I found out you could order lunch as well so I was excited to try a little of everything. The portions are huge! So I hope you're hungry. We had spam n eggs, moco loco, Korean fried chicken and more. We wanted the full experience since it's not everyday you visit paradise. The service was good, we were well taken care of with refills and friendly smiles. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience was relaxing and enjoyable and filled with happy local residents.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were probably the only tourists that day. I would highly recommend driving a little out of the way to grab some delicious food and bring an appetite because it's a lot.

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!

Helen Q.

Best description is, Zippy is The Hawaiian version of Dennys/IHOP. Staff are friendly. Food is tasty. Stopped by here on a Sunday before heading to the airport. @ 9:40 am this was pretty much the only place opened nearby besides McDonalds. I ordered their Kokua Pac, which was special priced at $11.75 for the month of May. Can easily be made into two keiki meals. Also ordered the 3 piece friend chicken with fries and corn. Lots of fries and corn, option was also to get it with mac salad instead. Definitely need to be a big eater to finish the entire plate.

Zip Pac® Deluxe (No Spam extra Hoki)
Losa F.

May 30,2026 - Saturday Next Stop, ZIPPYS! Upon your arrival you must scan the QR code to join the waitlist. The Host (Auntie Lisa) will call your name and then seat you at the available table. We decided to eat out tonight and here is what we ordered. -Zip Pac Deluxe (Substitute the spam for extra Hoki) Chili on the side -Oxtail Soup Total came out to $68.99 for these two orders. Service was quick, like we just ordered and everything came to us within or about 10 mins. Our server was definitely on it & was really nice, did check on us 3x. Sorry I didn't catch our waitress name :(. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It looked like a lot of families were dining in so we did have to wait a little but wasn't that long.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Bacon and eggs.
Todd M.

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.

Oxtail soup comes with rice and grated ginger
Bev M.

Second time here. Got seated right away, must've been good timing! Wife got the zip pac deluxe (sub spam for hoki): 9/10 I got oxtail soup: 9/10 Service: 10/10 -Food came out quick (10 minutes) -lady checked up on us often (but not overly checked up on us which I like) Food: 8/10 -oxtail had about 4 big pieces, broth was slightly not seasoned but after a good mix overall it was good -wife said her food was good because it was at a good temp and it came out fast. Taste was also good. Or as what she said "exactly how it should".

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). [[HIGHLIGHT]]And I like that they had a full service dine in section and an order at the counter/seat yourself section.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place was clean with a lot of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Chili Moco
Cindee P.

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.

Jiliza N.

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! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's very much a family-style diner vibe, nothing fancy, just good food[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is big.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cleanliness was okay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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!

Unfortunately the chicken was breaded, deep fried, and too greasy. I got it to go and just threw it away.

Is there gluten free options available?

Yes, ask your waiter

Anyone try their furikake miso salmon katsu plate yet? Would love to know how it was please.

I don't think they have this on the menu

I am a resident of Oahu but currently residing in Florida temporarily. For curiosity reasons, why is Kahului Zippy's the only one allowed to remain open for dine in at this critical time?

Aloha Gina, I was working on Maui last week (before the state ordered lockdown) & also went to Zippy's to buy food.… 

Are there any milk/cream/butter free entrees?

Hi Malia, may we ask that you contact us at customerservice@zippys.com so we can better assist you with your inquiry? Thank you.
