    Where to go for a late dinner or snack on a Friday nite, especially when it's also Halloween? Fortunately they are open til midnight. Some eateries are closed or will be by 10 p.m. Geared to local's tastes, it's popular if groups are willing to wait 32 minutes or try the take out order counter. On a busy night like this certain items like chicken had a long wait too. Wise move for the weekend diners that Zippy's stays open til the stroke of midnight.

    Love that they offer fresh mashed potatoes as a starch option to your entree. Mister and I enjoy this location. Easy parking, friendly service, clean restaurant.

    April special. Rice, chili, Korean chicken, and salad which my mother requested because the promotion had corn instead.

    The staff at this location is wonderful. Our hostess (I forgot aunties name) was so sweet and so was our attentive waitress Sarah. She checked on us often and refilled my cup before I asked lol. Offered us dessert but also didn't make me and my mother feel rushed. I have a Velcro dog as well in her bag and she asked if she needed anything. Very sweet. Food was was quick and piping hot and most importantly completely correct as my mother and I both had modifications. Recommend.

    Menu at Zippy's.... They have so many choices and such great pics! April Deal: Korean Fried Chicken and Chili Mixed Plate

    Service was great. The staff were really friendly and accommodating especially with all 4 of your little kids coming in like a wrecking ball. Got the ZipMin and French fries. Fries are always the best because they are crunchy and soft on the inside.

    It's a Zippy's! What can I say? First the cons: 1. Egress Ingress poor planning; exit right turn only 2. Parking stalls small- they took they minimum size they needed 3. A/C not working too good (dining room side) Second the pros: 1. Food quality is under control 2. Service good 3. Ordering system- upgraded 4. Seating system (restaurant side) QR code accepted Reason for my visit? Meeting my client and Waipio was the half way point for both of us. I had a straberry jello cream cheese dessert. When in doubt; head to the desserts. I would go back here only for convenience's sake!

    I was craving s in nothing sweet and I love me some ube! Thankfully, they had ube ensemadas in the bakery shelves!!! Fast service and Rodnhe was very personable and professional!!

    The chicken katsu portioning for a regular plate is nuts. I appreciate the 2 katsu sauce packets, but that's more katsu sauce than chicken brah. I don't ever yelp but that's skimpy af.

    The large bowl of saimin was $9.35 and was so worth it... mmmmmmm, delicious! 6.15.25

    For Father's Day, both my brother and I are empty nesters, so he and his wife and I decided to go out for lunch instead of making a cook-out like we usually do on special days. Yes, Zippy's Waipio was NOT our first choice, as we were planning to go to a popular chain pancake house in Kunia... So off we went, reached there about 10:15am and gasped at the amount of people waiting outside for a table. We all said the heck with that, and went back to Waipahu to our back up, Zippy's Waipio. Told my brother to make a reservation on their website as we were driving back to Waipahu and he did have confirmations, but of course the wait time was stating 40-60 minutes... Well, we all knew it was a special day so we decided to be patient and wait. As my sister in law has a recent disability and requires the use of a walker, once we got our seating after just about 20 minutes (whew... thank goodness the wait times on the website were optimistic), the host walked us to the left upon the host desk and to the booth just past the small service area so that she could put her fold up walker out of anyone's way and she could seat comfortably right by that service area. Wow, this is just about 11 25 am and the crowd in the dining area was packed! The nanas who waitressed and the two male helpers were really busting their ass and inside of myself i was congratulating them for their hard work and still keeping a happy and smiling cheerful face! I ordered the large saimin and mini-plate of korean fried chicken, hoping that this combination will be enough to satisfy this big man (aka: blalah, haha) appetite. I asked for toss salad and brown rice to go with the Korean fried chicken plate. We waited and talked story... but funny as our waitress brought only my two dishes first. I felt bad to eat so I did not until they also received their dishes (a chili loco moco, a regular hamburger loco moco and a small bowl of saimin). Yes, their meals came about 12 minutes latER but i have to take into the consideration how busy it was... I could see through the pass way the kitchen help also busting their behinds as they cooked the meals for both the restaurant and take-out sides. You could see them wiping the sweat off their foreheads as it was hot (i know as I used to work in the restaurant industry decades ago). I also realized our smiling waitress made an error and gave me white rice which of course i did not eat, so she came back with a small plate of a scoop of brown rice and apologized to me for her error. Man, the large saimin had so much toppings and were generous with it! I hate the social media bashing by those vocal who say 'zippy's not the same like before', 'zippy's too expensive now and no put as much foods', etc, etc. I have to tell you, that large bowl of saimin - sorry the picture of my bowl has about just 2/3s of the soup as i have ALWAYS love their broth and IMHO, their saimin brother betters all places that i have tasted saimin here on Oahu.. again... my opinion... I had no complaints of the large bowl of saimin--- oh yeah, forgot to mention but don't they automatically supposed to give me a small bowl of Chinese mustard so i can mix it with the shoyu? It never came... hmmm, maybe it only comes if I ordered the Won Ton Soup??? As for the mini plate of Korean fried chicken - i was soo surprised as to how much was on the plate and I was telling myself??? That's a MINI???Oh, baby... the flavor of Zippy's Korean Fried chicken just slaps!!! sooo delicious!!! their toss salad with the ranch dressing was delicious and i did not feel guilty eating the brown rice....! We were full as we were not in any rush (but as to where i was seated, I could see clearly the led wait time board which showed that the wait times had increased to 50-75 minutes... For sure, we were glad we did not come later for lunch... Though there were the longER wait times and a few minor errors like giving me white rice instead of brown and the odd times their meals came out about 12 minutes later after mine had arrived...I still feel the rating should be a 5 instead of a 4 that I wanted to give...as I took into consideration that this was Father's Day and it was packed! Oh, btw i did see early on the menu that our bill will be charged an additional 2% for the kitchen help... which was fine as it was clearly stated and not hidden like in 'fine print'. Kudos to the wait and kitchen staff at Zippy's Waipio! Of course we would LOVE to come more often to the dining area for lunch or dinners!

    Hungry spot... Shopping is definitely cardio as I came to Waipio to the Hawaii Okinawa Center Craft Fair and parked right beside across ZIPPY'S the open lot dedicated for the craft fair overflow parking and decided to walk over and shop and did so on the return and decided to stop and ZIPPY'S. Very nice location with signs very easy to read and loved that Napoleon's Bakery was open and operating so that I didn't need to wait in the takeout line to make my purchase though I did that anyways lol! Not feeling anything fried since I got some Andagi as well it was the Spaghetti plate with meat sauce. The service is very nice and yes they asked for my Zipster number which is very nice as I always forget to do so and waited for my order at tables which was nice and clean and a easy spot to rest and recover after a long day. The vibe here is nice and calm as I sat and looked over my purchases and enjoyed my dinner it's a place you don't feel rushed which is nice and as I unwind reorganize my day. Thank you!

    Worked a long day and decided to get a burger and fries and a Mac salad for dinner. I online order so when I drive there it will be ready. I put it in at 7:47pm. I get there around 8:05 and no text that is ready. I sit in my car...at about 20 minutes I go inside and sit down and see my name still on the board that they are making it....50 minutes later, I get the text that it is ready. The fries are cold, the burger is cold, and the Mac salad is room temperature. All for 50 minutes of waiting and 16 dollars. For extra funzies I guess I had to get a spoon there cause I ended up eating my Mac salad with the lid. I'm going to start to go to the Pearl city one instead even though I live in Waipio.

    Food was excellent! Service is exceptional. Ambiance, comfy and inviting. Parking spaces are tight so leave your big vehicles at home.

    Is dine in open? Went last week Saturday employees said it was closed with no reason.?

    don't have the definite answer, but very likely due to Omicron variant being so highly contagious, there would not be enough staffing to provide the for waiters/waitresses and clean up.

    What does the color "dot" on the pie mean?

    The colored dots help ensure optimal freshness of our pies for our customers.

The drive through lady today - Thurs 8/13/26 - when I went around 11:30 am, was very patient and helpful. Very pleased with her customer service. Will be back for more.

    On August 10, 2026, I ordered a taco salad. When I arrived home, I found the salad brown and wilted…read more(see photos). I was going to do a Yelp review then but decided not to, thinking this may have just been a one-off incident. Today, August 31, 2026, I ordered through Wendy's app, 2 ten-piece nuggets and a taco salad for drive-thru pickup. I arrived at the store 15 minutes later and was told by the drive-thru window person (a younger Asian woman) to park at the front of the store and that my order would be brought to my car. Watching numerous cars being served and after waiting for almost 15 minutes, I walked into the store. As I approached the counter, the same young woman who told me to park, looked at me. I asked her how much longer my order was going to take, but she turned away and started to work on filling drinks, ignoring my question, and avoided looking in my direction. Instead of assisting me or asking another worker to help me, she simply turned away. A few seconds later, another worker approached me asking if I needed help. After explaining what was happening, she spoke to the first girl, who again didn't appear to be concerned and continued doing other things. At tis point, I flagged down the manager, Solo, and told him that I was still waiting for my order for now, almost 20 minutes. He checked the computer for my order and asked if I had already gotten the salad. I told him I hadn't received anything, so he began to fill my order. He apologized and told me I could get a free meal on my NEXT visit. Sadly, I told hm I didn't think I'd be visiting that store again. Checking my order when I returned to my car, I found a single box of twenty-piece nuggets instead of 2 ten-piece nuggets (the nuggets were for two people at different locations, so I had to divide them evenly, keeping 10 in the box and dumping 10 into a package. Instead of the taco salad, I got a Caesar salad. Frustrated and irritated, I decided against going back into the store and just kept the order. We've been long time repeat customer at this location (Waipio Store), but after going through this ordeal, I'll drive the extra miles and visit a different Wendy's. This Wendy's store lacks proper customer skills and serves subpar salads. I will also be sending this to Wendy's Corp through the app.

    Can't go wrong with Raising Cane's!…read more Stopped in twice yesterday - once for my son, then a second time to grab myself a bite while he got his haircut. I guess smelling it after school hit a nerve because I couldn't resist! Service at this location is pretty top-notch. The workers are friendly, prompt, and always seem to have a smile on their faces! I appreciate that they're a fast-food spot, but they still make the effort to greet each customer and provide that extra bit of hospitality. Gabriel helped me both times yesterday, and it was pretty funny when he thought I had a doppelgänger haha! He even tried to remember my name, which I thought was pretty awesome. The food options are minimal, but let's be honest - you go to Cane's for the chicken tenders, so that part is pretty much settled. One nice thing to note is that they'll discount the combo if you don't want the drink, which is always a plus because I usually only drink water. Overall, another solid Cane's experience! Good food, friendly service, and a crew that clearly puts some personality into what they do. Definitely a spot I'm happy to swing by when that Cane's craving hits!

    Raising Cane's is probably one of my favorite fast food joints!…read more I always like to get their box combo with an extra side of cane's sauce. Their chicken tenders are tender and moist and it's an absolute must to eat it with the sauce. I also enjoy their coleslaw since it adds some freshness to the meal. The texas toast is nice and buttery and you can dip it in the sauce too! I like how you can get an Arnold Palmer there (half sweet tea/half lemonade) as a drink! When you dine inside, it's pretty big and spacious and they keep the place clean. The food comes out fast! You can't go wrong with Raising Cane's for a quick affordable meal.
