Family and I decided to try their breakfast and it was the best food and service our entire trip! So good we had to come back the next morning and bring more family to experience it themselves! Plus two hour free parking lot was convenient! So no need to go drive circles searching for a spot, pay, and then trek! It's clear their work culture values charismatic and attentive service because we received exceptional service not only from Maya, but also another server the next morning (I wish I could remember his name! So sorry!) Servers exerted wonderful energy, drinks never went empty, they made sure food requests were accurate, pre-bussed the tables, and checked on us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Maya even referred us to additional recommendations around the island when we asked. Thank you guys so much! Will certainly recommend to others and be back the next time! read more

Maybe a controversial take, but beastside has my favorite garlic shrimp on island. Unlike Giovanni's, Jenny's, and all the other Haleiwa shrimp trucks, Beastside fries their shrimp without breading so that it's super crispy and flavorful. You can even eat the skin! I've returned here time after time, and in addition to the shrimp being great, the staff are always very friendly, all of the food is delicious, and they sometimes have live musicians. Highly recommend if you're on the East side, and worth the drive for good garlic shrimp even if you aren't. read more

My husband and I decided to go to Beastside Kitchen because the reviews were so good. Yelp never steers us wrong and Beastside was no exception! It was absolutely worth the hype. From the warm and friendly service to the delicious Hawaii local beers, we were impressed. When the food came out, we were blown away. We started with the Pork Belly Bao Buns...oh my gosh, we could have made a meal out of just those! The pork belly was juicy and soft and with the sauce and fluffy bao buns...they will be something I dream of when we leave Hawaii. We then shared the two choice platter with the Guava fried chicken and Umami Garlic Shrimp. It was soooo good and the reviews were spot on. We were full and completely happy by the time we left! I will be recommending them to all our friends that visit and live in Hawaii. read more

Located in Niu Valley Shopping Center where The Sty used to be. Plenty of free uncovered parking. At 8:00 pm we were Welcomed warmly by hostess/server and made sure we chose where we wanted to sit and be comfortable. They had a big party going on so those booths/tables along wall were taken. There are also high top tables but we chose to sit at the bar. Restaurant is chill with booths, tables, u-shaped bar. Great food, full bar with specialty cocktails and love it because pure local vibe, plenty chee-hoos and aloha spirit with no rude patrons. Lots of regulars, plenty from Nalo side so it's good fun! Menu is classic local and love all the choices for pupu, main, and even desserts. This time enjoyed their Teri beef burger which comes with either crispy delicious fries or green salad and choice of dressing- I loved the oriental one. Burger is on warm soft bun and chock full of lettuce, tomato, cheese so ono! Our bartender was Amanda and she was awesome! Concocted some great martinis for us having to sub items but we had a great time because despite the bar being busy she made sure we weren't parched lol and made sure we had what we needed. Other bartenders also checked in with us - and made sure our plates were cleared, had more water, refreshed our drinks. If you're looking for a quiet place around 8:00 pm, don't come here. The place is very loud with music and people laughing and enjoying themselves. You may have to shout your order to be heard. Then at 9:30 the DJ comes on and dancing happens. It's a small dance floor but still fun! They post a bouncer at door to charge a cover. Kitchen closes around 10:00, but Amanda was nice to let us know a few minutes before incase we wanted dessert. They close at midnight on weekends. Mahalo to owners for maintaining a good place to enjoy very reasonably priced ono food and served by our peeps on the side of island that needs more places like this. read more

I recommend even getting one of everything OR you come by frequent enough to try everything once! Came with family, food was quickly served and noted to be super fresh. Cant wait to be back! read more

I've heard good things about this place so I got takeout on the way to the beach. The guava bbq chicken seems to be a favorite but I was feeling more like the ginger scallion chicken so I got that. I chose kimchi as the side instead of macaroni salad to be healthier. The person up front was friendly and inside the restaurant looked like a nice place to dine in. The ginger scallion chicken was a "hot" version meaning it wasn't cold like the usual way. It has a subtle different taste being marinated in the guava bbq sauce. Overall it is what you would expect it to taste like. The kimchi was pretty good and in between fresh and sour. Another person got the shrimp and bbq chicken combo and that looked good. They were happy with their choices. I'll try the bbq chicken next time! read more

This garlic shrimp is one of theeee best plates for garlic shrimp. It has light coat of oanko and deep fried to perfection. That fresh garlic sauce in the rice it's super good - not heavy - just right. My hubby at my left over rice cause the sauce was on point. Service was friendly and quick for take out. It's a restaurant and bar style with live music on special nights. The feel was local casual and comfortable. read more

Lunch is between the hours of 1100a thru 200p. Ordered online via Local by Toast...dining app. My burger was on the counter 20 minutes later. I requested Beastside Kitchen's Makapu'u Sunrise Burger. It could be renamed Sunset ( you will drown if you go in the ocean after consuming this Beast ) as it is a hefty sandwich: 1/3 lb. Wagyu patty, fried egg, bacon, and cheese, with aioli on the side. It didn't need the aioli as it was quite flavorful. Patty was medium-rare. Also, comes with a side...I chose kim chee to cut through the oil and fat. Newly built bar is sitauted at the front right of the dining area and stage is back, and center. Live music ( usually ) performed Thursday-Sunday evenings. read more

Beastside Kitchen - Hawaiʻi Kai Stopped by Beastside Kitchen in Hawaiʻi Kai and had a great experience overall. I ordered the Pastele Nachos, and they were really solid. At first glance it didn't look like a ton of chips, but it turned out to be the perfect chip-to-meat ratio--every bite had plenty of flavor without feeling dry or overloaded. It was a bit on the salty side, but honestly nothing a cold beer couldn't wash down. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the space is great for groups, whether you're out with friends or family. They also offer happy hour from 3pm-6pm, plus late-night hours Thursday through Sunday from 9pm to close, which makes it an easy choice any time of day. Overall, good food, good vibes, and a solid spot in Hawaiʻi Kai worth checking out. read more

Always wanted to try this place but never really in the area so since we were on that side this afternoon we decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed! We were seated immediately, ordered quickly and the food was brought to us so fast! The restaurant was almost full too. Food was amazing, my favorite was the pork belly bao and the shoestring fries! The pastele stew was good too but I do wish the meat was chunks of pork butt or belly instead of ground meat. Flavor was spot on though. I can't wait to go back though the menu looked so good we had a hard time figuring out what to choose. We want to try the whole menu! read more

Food is bomb. Service exudes aloha. Love that they bring in local musicians to play live. Can get loud at night cause of how crowded and lively folks can be. That just points to their popularity. But did you know they serve breakfast too? It's quiet in the mornings and food is still yummy so definitely a hidden gem. read more

Went here on a Wednesday right before lunch to do takeout. The staff were very helpful, especially since they knew it was our first time there. We got the garlic umami fries, pastele nachos, the big pua'a moco, -n- the furikake ahi katsu. Food was delicious! I loved how they have a calendar of events. I would love to go back for the live music -n- next time definitely eat in. read more

Came here for the first time with my friend. I ordered the 3 choice combo plate (pork belly, umami shrimp, and bbq guava fried chicken). It bit pricey, but the plate is packed. The pork belly was super tender and tasted similar to Big City Diner guava ribs. The umami shrimp was super delicious and garlicky. The bbq guava fried chicken was probably the best entree. It was very crispy yet packed with flavor and juiciness. I didn't really taste any guava flavor, but it was more on the Korean Fried Chicken from Zippys taste. The staff is fast and friendly. Lots of parking and lots of tables to dine at. read more

If you're seeing this, you should absolutely go to Beastside Kitchen! We came in on a Friday night at 9:50 and were told we could order, just couldn't get anything from the grill. We got the shrimp, pork belly, and guava chicken and none of them disappointed! Garlic umami shrimp is soooo good and flavorful. Waitress said since they deep fry it, you can eat the shell of the shrimp. Definitely try it, half our table liked it better w the shell on because more flavor. My friend reallyyy enjoyed the pork belly as well. And the guava chicken was so so tasty! So much so that we came back a second day and brought my friend's mom. And speaking of coming on a Friday night, we came in and there was a singer on stage with a really engaged audience. It was a good time with a good meal and that's really all you could ask for on a Friday night! They had a schedule full of events including an old school night. I'll definitely be back on my next trip! read more

So good we went twice in 1 week!! Go during happy hour (3-6). The waitresses are super sweet and everything comes out FAST. So much garlic umami goodness in everything we ordered. Their guava bbq fried chicken and garlic umami shrimp are the most popular items for a reason!!! Trust! My fiance loves their oyster shooters too, there's 2 types but the beast side shootah is his fav. We also tried the pastels nachos, they're good but a tad salty. There was a drink I had, I can't remember the name hit it had lilikoi sorbet in it and it was SO GOOD. If you like fruity and slightly sweeter drinks get it. It had a nice refreshing taste and it was pretty strong. They also have taco Tuesdays, the pork and fish were both really good! Kinda not super authentic tacos (they added shredded Mexican blend cheese instead of cotija, and the toppings were nothing special) but they satisfied the craving just fine. Their margaritas are YUM and cheap during taco Tuesday. It is a littleeee on the pricey side if you're not getting HH items but the portions are big. Go with a group and share everything. Wanna go during the live music sometime, both times we went there wasn't any :( I think they said it music starts at 7 pm read more

Wonderful service and great food. Definitely coming back. Was busy at the time but they still did great

Pretty frustrated with this experience. It was a busy Friday night, and by around 10 PM we still hadn't had dinner. We checked Yelp and saw that this place was listed as open until midnight. We also looked at the menus on their website, and the dinner menu specifically says it's served from 3 PM to close, so we drove about 25 minutes expecting to be able to eat. We were actually really excited to try it based on the Yelp ratings and reviews, especially since several items on the menu -- like the pork belly -- sounded great. When we arrived around 10:30 PM, though, the restaurant looked closed. We double-checked the posted hours and decided to go in anyway, only to be told immediately that the kitchen was already closed. It was disappointing to drive that far late at night based on the posted hours and menu information, only to find out food service had ended much earlier than expected. read more

It never fails. Each time we come here, we love the service and food. Today was exceptional! Shyla-Ann and the other servers who helped were terrific. Shyla was friendly, courteous and fun.

I kept telling my husband that I was so happy! I kept looking around and was impressed of the decor and that it was clean! Thank you for your ONO food and the awesome people working for you! read more

We felt a little lazy yesterday so we decided to get takeout from Beastside Kitchen. This place was recommended to me by a family member, however, I had never tried it before. I was very excited by the photos and menus online. We called to place an order, and our food was ready for pickup in about 20 minutes. I don't like to start a review negatively, but I was very disappointed because they forgot our poke. I had been craving it all day, and it was the first thing that we ordered on the phone, so I was sad to see it missing. That being said, the other food was still good. We ultimately got the shrimp plate with kimchi and mac salad, the kimchi tofu, and the garlic umami fries. I don't usually like mac salad, but this was the first place where I found myself reaching for seconds. The tofu was yummy, and it was very seasoned and flavorful with the kimchi. My favorite was the fries--they were so crispy, even though we ordered it takeout. The fry sauces I recommend ordering on the side; I think it helped preserve the crispiness. Plus, the fries themselves are already very seasoned, so I didn't even need the sauces. Overall, it was a good experience. Maybe I can come back and try the poke another day. But if I come back, I will definitely be reordering the fries! read more

Food was excellent with ample portions. Service was attentive, not imposing! Would give 3.5 stars if I could. Furnishings of restaurant were old and needed renovation.

However, food was so good, I still would go back there, lol. read more

Come on!!! A place shouldn't be this good. I honestly don't give many places high ratings but this place is different. Worth driving away from Waikiki to have aunty serve you. You can feel the love. It was actually the 2nd day of their breakfast offerings but it tastes like it's been around for decades. I got the big pua'a moco ( ps. the pork belly on it was THE most tender and disintegrates in your mouth with huge savory flavor... it was more tender than any ramen pork belly I've had), adobo fried rice (The OG) , and they let me get Kalbi ribs on the side! I wanted to gate keep about this spot initially. But it's just that good. read more

One of my family's favorite places to eat on the island! We were only here for two days left when we came here for the first time and it was so good we decided to stop by again before we left. From the two instances I've experienced dinner is much less crowded than lunch. We actually stopped by for lunch and they had closed the kitchen bc they received a large order prior to when we arrived. We were bummed but the owner gave us a coupon to redeem the next time we came (which happened to be later that night). Lots of food for the price, service is good and fast, plus there was live music that Saturday night. - Garlic Umami shrimp: 5/5 my family agreed it's the best we've ever had - Guava Chicken: 5/5 a little too heavily fried but the flavor was sooo good - BBQ Pork Belly: 5/5 the meat was so tender and basically fell apart on your fork - Mac Salad: 5/5 special acknowledgment for the Mac salad bc dang it's good read more

Good comfort food with huge portions and reasonable prices. We enjoyed their adobo fried rice (enough for four people) topped with an egg to your liking. We also enjoyed their kalbi and tater tot fries. Each 5 stars. Their macadamia nut pancakes were ok (2.5 stars). We had room for their guava smoked fried chicken which was a winner! 5 stars.

Went photo shooting on the east side of O'ahu on Saturday and needed a food break. I always have a problem figuring out what I'm going to eat and where to get it. After driving all the way to Kaimuki and not wanting to get in any of those crowded parking lots I ended up back at 'Aina Hina Shopping Center. Not feeling it. Got on yelp and saw Beastside Kitchen (Niu Valley Shopping Center). Checked out the menu and called in an order. The woman that answered the phone was soooo pleasant and apologized for putting me on hold cause it was busy. No worry, beef curry. No, I didn't order beef curry. I ordered a Loco Moco. Da classic kine. but, to my surprise. It wasn't classic it was, in my words, Supa dupped. With the crunchy fried onions on top and everything. Patty was cooked perfectly. I ordered it medium. The mac salad was kinda weird when i first tasted it alone but along with the gravy and burger. SHE GO! So, this long story was just to let you know that the Loco Moco at Beastside is to LEGIT TO QUIT! yup, Im old. Go get um. you not gonna be sorry. ola, out. read more

I've been moving away from greasy food lately but this place had great ratings so I decided to give it a try. The food was greasy alright. I ate so much I went to bed with a stomach ache.
