We absolutely loved this place! We tried their Mongo beans, dinuguan, Kwali Lechon, local breakfast plate with Portuguese sausage, pinakbet, pinapaitan, longonisa breakfast plate, sisig fries, and pork lumpia. Then, we had the banana lumpia with Ube ice cream. All of it was delicious! This is better Filipino food than in L.A. and Vegas. The owner, Ron D, was so friendly and gave us a small bowl to try the Bichol Express. That was also delicious. We loved the food so much that we plan to come back before we leave back to the mainland. My cousin heard about this place from an Instagram influencer saying this is the best Filipino food to eat on the island. My brother also heard from his coworker that this place was excellent as well. If you want authentic Filipino food, go to Shay’s.

5/14/2022 Walked into Shay’s 10 minutes after they opened because we were craving Filipino food. Hubby had heard about this place from his co-workers but we both had never tried before. He had Bicol Express and Lumpias and I wanted to try the Fried Bangus.

Went there as soon as they opened at 10am. The music was so loud but they eventually turned it down. The server is nice but doesn’t seem that friendly. The food was pretty good! Came here for the Ube pancake but I loved the fried silet too! The longganisa fried omelet is not too bad. I was looking for more tastier longganisa tho. I was with my friend. I will take my family next time.. We wanted to eat here during the lockdow but the wait took forever. We waited maybe 2 hours or so but too hungry so we decided to go somewhere else. Looking forward to a better experience next time tho…

Fantastic Filipino Foods! Hot, Fresh, Tasty and Huge Portions at very reasonable prices! Even a military or senior citizen discount for those 55 and older. Pork Adobo, Sari Sari, Bicol Express, Lechon Kawali and Pork Adobo Omelet were all excellent! Pork and Banana Lumpia were all delicious too! For a limited time their Ube Pancakes were wonderful. Now our favorite restaurant, we will definitely be back.

Called in an order for pick up – lechon kawali (NO onions) plate lunch w/pansit instead of rice, squid adobo, and adobo pizza. Squid adobo (no photo) was tasty but chewy/rubbery instead of tender. Best thing: Adobo pizza does not disappoint Worst thing: Lechon kawali was not crispy/crunchy AND had onions; I emphasized that the dish had to be remade, onions could not just be taken out because my cousin is allergic, but that is EXACTLY what must have happened because when I opened the container at home there was a slice of onion! Thankfully, my cousin didn’t suffer serious adverse reaction.

Both the service and the food was excellent. Great selection Filipino cuisine and the prices were affordable I had the lechon kawali with mini adobo fried rice. The flavors are exactly what I remember growing up. More than enough food to take home the extra. I even ordered take out of the Ube pancakes.

Possibly the best Filipino cuisine in Oahu. Their pinapaitan is the best I’ve tasted. The Kari-Kari is a must. Service is good and friendly. This place is a favorite with my friends.

I called the worker right away. The first words she said, I will give you 10 percent on the pancake and walk away. Make the story short, went to the cashier and paid for the bills. And told the worker I swallowed part of the plastic and the manager voided the pancakes on the bill. They worker are very helpful! But bad experience on my end

They have really good mouth water chicken adobo fried rice omelet. When you get this ask for a side of adobo sauce, it just makes it so much better!
