I absolutely love this place. Their food is amazing. It’s a Grab and Go spot so dont expect seating but get there before the rush because the food goes fast. EVERYTHING tastes beyond great. My favorite has to be the Pork Belly Masubi. This is the one place I’ve been where the photos match the food. The flavors are phenomenal and owners wife makes you never want to leave. I crave Filipino lemonade now. I love my new Chinese mom!

I looked up ‘good food by the airport’ and this place came up. I’m sort of disappointed they disrespected this restaurant with ‘good’… this place is GREAT, AMAZING, WORTH A TRIP TO HAWAII FOR! Ha! The food was fresh, super tasty and the service was phenomenal. Rose was so sweet… sharing her opinion about what we would like and even ran to the car to check to see if we liked it, give us a ‘palate cleansing tea’ and a chocolate chip ‘cookie for your flight’. Our ‘fish and chips’ was made with mahi mahi which tasted like it was swimming in the ocean this morning… bbq brisket bowl was delectable, sweet, tangy, melted in our mouth… everything was delicious down to the pineapple Cole slaw they put on top as a ‘garnish’. We also had. ‘Filipino lemonade’ made with Calamansi!!! If you want really really tasty Hawaiian/asian fusion without the frills – COME HERE! I’ve done Michelin stars when necessary but for me it’s the ‘hole in the wall’ ‘slap yo momma’ meals I prefer. I told my agent who took my bags and showed her pictures – she said she was going while on her break! Hahahah

This place is a quick drive from the airport, and it was our first stop when we landed! The service was great, and the lady at the register is so nice and welcoming. We ordered the Filipino Lemonade, Blackened Ahi Sandwich, Adobo Pork Belly Bowl, Spicy Ahi Roll, truffle fries, large Banana Poi bread, and brownies.

OMG, I just had the apple strudel at this place and it was just heavenly!!!! The lady who has helped me Rose, was super nice, I really enjoyed talking to her. Even the chef himself came out of the kitchen to say Hi. The place is super clean, it is easy to see that it is run by a true professional. Chef Ron really cares about the food he makes and he only accepts perfection. My apple strudel was so good that I am returning here to grab lunch for my kids! Highly recommend!

So very good! It was hard to decide what to order as everything is made from scratch and sounded amazing. I was going to have the Red Wine Beef stew, but it was sold out for the day. Chef Ron makes it over 2 days, nice and slow. The Filipino lemonade was the perfect light drink to complement the meal. Counter service only with no tables, but there is a counter you can stand and eat. Ample free parking. Chef Ron and his wife Rose were very friendly. Walk across the street after your meal and check out the Honolulu Chip Company for chips right out of the fryer.

This place is absolutely amazing. Every single thing on the menu is phenomenal and the ladies holding down the front counter have the best energy I’ve ever experienced from an eatery. I could go to this place with a full stomach just to be hyped up by the women’s enthusiasm as they describe the dishes and joke around with the patrons. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would.

While I was waiting for my car as it was being serviced at a local dealership, I search Google Maps for nearby restaurants. I am so glad that I decided on this restaurant! It was a little hard to find, but worth it. The customer service was great, and I was really happy with her recommendations. The Olena Burger is actually the best burger I’ve eaten on this island, and the truffle fries were so delicious! I was sad that my toddler ate all of it. I almost didn’t order the Filipino lemonade because I thought it may be too sour with calamansi, but the pineapple gave it the right balance.

Their website is up to date with really detailed descriptions of the menu items. There’s a fair amount of free parking and they’re right across the street from Hawaiian Chip Company! Service is out standing and the food is tasty and fresh!
