    Visited several times during the Obon season at different bon dances on the island. Lines can be long (at the bon dances), but is worth the wait. Andagi is served hot and fresh. Friendly staff and very reasonable pricing. Credit cards are accepted, but sales tax is added to the transaction. Definitely a must try!

    I'm surprised i liked this place! I went the Wednesday before X'mas and they were not there in front of Don Quixote. Then I went back before X'mas and they were there. There were 2 men frying up the andagi. Meanwhile the lady was collecting the cash. I wanted to buy a shirt but there was no merch available. CAsh only. Quick service. Perfectly crafted and not too sweet.

    Fresh, fresh, freshly made delectable bites of andagi (Okinawan donut). Guy Ujimori, is otherwise known as "Da Andagi Guy,". He and his family make delicious and tasty andagi. This spot is located at the Don Quijote Kaheka location. Da Andagi Guy is here only on Wednesdays. Service is always quick and with a smile. You really can't beat the price at a dozen for $5! You can order plain or with cinnamon sugar. It comes to you hot and placed in a paper bag. No real ambiance here because it's in a tent like booth with hot oil in a wok to cook the andagi. Keep your distance!

    They are located outside Don Quijote Kaheka on Wednesdays from 9:30am to 5:30pm and Don Quijote Waipahu on Sundays 9am to 5pm and Tuesdays from 9am to 5pm. I'm in town, so I visit the pop up on Kaheka on Wednesdays from time to time. Their andagis are excellent. They fry it on the spot, so it's hot and fresh. For me, andagis need to be eaten right out of the fryer. Once it's cold, I'm not feeling it. They have andagis down to a science. The size is perfect. It's not too big where there's a ton of dough. It's light and airy on the inside. You can get it plain or with cinnamon sugar. I've had both and the cinnamon sugar is too sweet. The plain hits the spot. Two pieces for $1 or a dozen for $5.

    I can't wait until Wednesdays again for andagi @ Da Andagi Guy! My daughter miss eating andagi! She requested for some during her short visit here. This is one of her favorite treats! I mentioned to her that we could go grab at the Moilili Bon Dance Saturday night, which was not a great idea, over 2 hours wait! She said, " it's ok" Luckily Da Andagi Guy's pop up happens to be on Wednesday, the day she leaves. I had to make sure we made a stop for her, for her fix. Da Andagi Guy is at front of Don Quijote on Wednesdays only from 9:30 am- 5:30 pm. Prices increase, use to be 3 pieces for $1., now it is 2 pieces for $1. or dozen for $5. They are cute bite sizes, not oily, so perfect, so good! It is fine with me, I am happy that there's a spot for Andagi close by me. Who doesn't love Andagi?! ( Okinawan donut) Look for the white tent and the lines! Note, if you pay cash, no taxes! Service was quick and friendly! All in all, I am happy that my daughter got her Andagi in before she left the islands, she took the rest back and I was only able to have one piece, so this is why I can't wait to go back next Wednesday for more!! Available in 2 flavors but our favorite is the original.

    I've seen Da Andagi Guy posted up outside Don Q in Honolulu so many times, but finally tried it today because, well, why not? They're only there on Wednesdays, so I figured it was the perfect chance to finally see what the hype is about They only sell one thing - Okinawan doughnuts - and you can either get regular or cinnamon sugar. The prices are pretty great: 2 pieces for $1 or a dozen for $5. I decided to grab 2 (one of each flavor) just to test the waters Honestly, it's solid! Very well-fried and fresh, which is always a win. The doughnuts are dense, way more than I expected, but still soft on the inside. The sweetness level was just right, not too much, so you don't feel like you're eating a sugar bomb That said, nothing really blew me away. They're good, but not great. It didn't have that extra something to push it to a 5-star experience for me, but if you're around on a Wednesday and craving a little snack, it's worth checking out

    We happened to be at Don Quijote the day the stand was open. We saw a line of people and decided to get some. Such delicious Okinawan donut balls! It only comes in 2 flavors - original and cinnamon. We got the dozen and had to slow ourselves from eating them too quick haha

    Cinnamon & Classic Andagi!
    Eric R.

    "I had the urge to examine my life in another culture and move beyond what I knew." - Under the Tuscan Sun Perhaps the best deal in the world! Okay I'm getting carried away since you can still purchase a cheap villa in Italy's countryside. But, how can one ignore $1 buys you three ping-pong sized Andagis! Many call it Okinawan Donuts, and many more have no clue! Da Andagi Guy is that elusive girl you wanted to date in High School, but she was only available on Wednesday afternoons lol. Once in my routine when I lived in Honolulu for work. Yet, this Cali boy doesn't miss much about Honolulu, well maybe Don Quijote runs, sunrises, and Da Andagi Guy on Wednesday! Back in Honolulu on a Wednesday and in need of goods from Don Quijote and guess who's out there selling Classic Andagi for $1 and Cinnamon Andagi for $1, yes the Andagi Guy lol! I pull two crumpled dollar bills out of my pocket! Hella yea! No tax! No fees! There's always a line but it moves fast! I'm 5th in line and a no-brainer to get one bag of Classic and one bag of Cinnamon - $2 holla! Cash paid and piping hot Andagi passed to me! These amazing ping-pong sized fried doughnut bites pairs well with any drink! Freshly fried and piping hot is what you'll get! Ohhh! Trust! This recent trip was maybe my 20th visit, but it's so routine that I don't even recall my first or tenth visit. However, I do recall when a dollar would get you four ping-pong Andagis! Hey, let's not get greedy as three for a dollar is still a steal! Unless you're Diane Lane in Tuscany looking for that perfect bachelorette pad?!

    Wednesdays only at this location
    Rebecca T.

    Um just so good! I don't often like donuts but I could eat all 3 at once (just $1 by the way). If you aren't familiar with Okinawan donuts, they taste a little bit like Chinese sweet donuts that you eat with congee. The flour or the batter has some sweetness to it. I only have been to the location outside don quijote on kaheka Street. They are there only on Wednesdays, which makes it even more special. As I remember, there has always been a line but the line moved really fast. The staff there was friendly. The donuts were hot and fresh and they were so delicious! Sometimes I plan my grocery shopping days at Don Quijote on Wednesdays ha ha. If you never been here, please do yourself a favor, and try this place out!

    Best Andagi Ever!
    Peter N.

    Most andagi are really big. The problem with that is the crispy crust to fluffy interior ratio is way off. Da Andagi Guy makes them perfectly! Just the right size to enjoy the crunch and fluff in every bite. Your choice of plain, cinnamon sugar or a mix. Each order comes with 3 andagi for only a dollar. The only thing I would want to change is for Da Andagi Guy to come to Don Quixote more often than just on Wednesdays. Then I could have my craving for hot, fresh and delicious andagi more often!

    Jo-Anne S.

    I recently read an article on da Andagi guy and it was nothing but great things. Just do happen i made a stop at "Daiei" Kaheka on Wednesday and was wondering what this long line was all about. Yes, a long, long line! Indeed, they were all waiting for andagis. Don't let the long line discourage you because it does move quickly. If they run out and new batch is in the making, it's about a 4-5 min wait, but worth the wait! Choices are original or Cinammon. 3 pc andagi for 1.00 and they are little bigger than bite size. It's delish when eaten when warm of course, nice warm and crispy! da Andagi guy visits the Pearl city location on other days but only come to town in Wednesday's. It's a must come to try if you haven't had a piece yet! Service is also great, do support local!

    Prices 9/2023
    Janelle A.

    Only open on Wednesdays from 9:30am to 5:30pm! This is a must try when in Oahu and worth the wait if there's a line!! Must eat fresh! It's like an old fashion cinnamon, doughy, fresh out the fryer, and delicious

    Small staff under white tent at the entrance of Don Quixote serve up Andagi!

They just started opening up for lunch time about a month ago - something they haven't done before, and people have been attending! Sheva (Seven) - was my bartender today - very friendly super engaging and always quick to entertain with fun trivia facts! Beer prices are fairly priced, see the pics I posted to see everything. No price gauging on wine AT ALL!! (Other places charge $15 for a chardonnay, and vary the prices of the wine depending on the type; now granted if they going higher end and longer age in a barrel I can understand - but for a bottle cali wine you can get @ Target for the same brand at $15 - ya know there are some mark ups!) Anyhoooo.... Let's talk the food: belly so happy taking leftovers home! Alright so Step 1: Choice of protein: fish, beef, chicken, tofu, vegetables. I asked for half chicken & half vegetable combo (they were EXTREMELY accomodating on that request)!!!!! Step 2: Pick yer sauce! They have 5 main sauces, pic enclosed. I went with the Spicy Teri Garlic! (trust me foodies it fiiiiiire! Step 3/Final Step: Choose da sides (again on the menu pic) I went for the combo - salad, rice, and potato/mac salad! Now for specialty drinks: Their Bloody Harry (a unique Bloody Mary) is completely worth it! Uses a unique homemade infused vodka that hands down you will NOT find anywhere else on island! Glass is rimmed with salt AND peppercorns, again another unique feature to this beverage! There is also a new beverage called Wonka Lada, which looks very much like something you'd see out of Willy Wonka's factory and/or if you really geeking out making comparisons to Monster's Inc! And others have compared it to something out of Warcraft, I can't say anyone is wrong! Smoothy style especially for those needing a nice cold fix! Li ing mui on the rim. Gives all the piña colada vibes with a strong hit of ube! This is one of those that hits you afterward!!!! Great vibe there are tables all around and even a small hot tub/pool area to give more to the atmosphere look! So don't complain if plastic cups are used because hotel has a no glass policy around the pool. This establishment has been here since last November. And don't think yer gonna get bored sitting here! Bar top is really solid hard wood!! There are all sorts of decor that each time you come here it almost a game of find this item! Tribal masks from Africa, Traditional tiki faces, bonsai trees, Hula instruments, saddles, tapa style roofing, beware the lobsters running amuck! Hmmm maybe a promotion needs to be done where what item is new hiding amongst all the decor for a special prize or something? And yes for you folks who are die hard sports fans - there are 2 televisions - everything comes from streaming services - so treat them nicely with yer tips and maybe they can get more power to more of what u wanna see! (hint hint hint) Overall this place is a huuuge 100/10! So bring tyler gang here! Oh in case u asked the bar is inside the Bamboo resort (fun fact this building been here for 100 years!)! And don't worry super close to the bus lines so for those who need an extra lift yer covered! (unless you ubered or lyfted or drove, rode yer own bike/scooter/skateboard or did yer own two feet here! Yes your mouths and eyes are watering to get over here! So easy way to know yer in the right spot is to see the vintage Yellow Woody sitting out front! Just please don't climb in it for photo ops - that would really make everyone sad. Yes Yelpers I "will be back"! Enjoy and help support these local folks running the place!

It's in an area with a few other food stalls and I didn't know what to expect but I'm so glad I tried it. I ordered the angry shrimp plate and the 6pc coconut shrimp a la carte ($13.95). The coconut shrimp is outta this world. Coated with breading with flakes of coconut, the crispy, crunchy exterior is so satisfying to bite into and unveils the juicy shrimp underneath. I loved the sauces it came with too -- it paired so well with the shrimp. The angry shrimp plate comes with two scoops of furikake rice and a small side salad. Whatever is in the salad dressing is seriously addictive and the angry shrimp is wonderful when paired with the rice. The sauce made me want two more scoops of white rice. I preferred my beloved coconut shrimp more but all in all these were excellent dishes. I might need to get this again and that's high praise considering the abundance of good food in Oahu.

It quickly became uncomfortable. When picking up our first order (2 platters, 2 drinks), the same employee asked if I could carry everything. I said I'd try, but instead of giving me the drinks, he handed me only the 2 platters and angrily sighed before setting the drinks back down.

I turn to set those down and while doing so I guess he thought now I would be able to handle carrying 2 platters and 2 drinks.

When I said, "that's rude," he doubled down - telling another customer I was an idiot because he was "busy" (there was only one person in line). My boyfriend calmly tried to address it, but the employee refused, completely ignored him, and continued glaring at us as we left. Other customers also expressed how rudely treated they were at this location. We spent nearly $100 to be treated with hostility. Completely unacceptable.

John is so sweet, he even offered me the hot dog on the house... completely unexpected, but a true reflection of John's demeanor. I went with the chicken hot dog "John style" (well that is everything but the sauerkraut). I wasn't hesitate about the mustard because I'm usually not a fan but the staff insisted it was more like Dijon mustard anyways. The hotdog was loaded, flavorful, and way better than I expected for someone who usually keeps it simple with the toppings. The bun broke down a bit from all the toppings, but that was to be expected with all the toppings loaded on there. You can't beat the location, it's right outside the Ilikai by the lagoon though the service alone makes this an easy five stars.

Which he then responded by saying, "what, would he rather have a pho?" Clearly seeing my boyfriend was Asian, that was his question for us just getting one hotdog. He said it as if it was funny. I left it alone and waited for the order. I just don't get the point of him having to say that. He didn't even pronounce "pho" right either, he pronounced it as "foe." As for the hotdog itself, it is good. It is on the pricier side of $11 for one but for the price you get with the bun, polish sausage and toppings, it made it for it. Lower stars because of the overall impression.

    Loved this! It's such unique topping combinations that I would never think to put on a hot dog, or…read moreeven put together, but it's always delicious! I love the option for type of bun as well, and the way they toast the inside is great. They have some unique and delicious drink options, and overall the pricing is pretty reasonable for what you're getting, especially down in Honolulu. We were able to park in the free little lot for customers within about an hour of them closing on a Monday, though I'm not sure how busy that lot usually is.

    Eat the street and getting continually better. The new location at kakaako waterfront park is way…read morebetter than the kewalo basin mainly because of the space. I did like the strung lights shaped like a big top tent at kewalo and some of the staging. But the variety of food, vendors and entertainment in kakaako is just exponentially larger. You have to recognize the progression of restaurant in Hawaii to appreciate it. This is where they start. Da spot for instance was a food truck, opened a restaurant near university after success and now is opening a second location at AMC. So support food stand and food trucks, they might be your next fine dining experience in the future. This is the place to do it. It has a very pincnic atmosphere, live music, drinking section, etc. you can appreciate it all. My latest fav is Istanbul Turkish cuisine. They have plans to open a brick and mortar place in Chinatown. The food they produce is really tasty. I'd love to see the stuff they make in a full restaurant. Come out, support, if you wish there were more of (fill in blank) types a restaurant, this is a good place to find a food truck and help them make it happen.

    I honestly had no idea about Eat The Street, I was bored and checking events on Yelp as always and…read morewas trying to find something fun to do that obviously had something to do with eating. We decided to spend our "Black Friday" here, event started at 4:00 p.m to 9:00 p.m at Kakaako Park but we ended up showing up at 6:00 pm. We honestly didn't have that huge of an issue finding parking and the event wasn't that crowded, I'm sure it had a lot to do with everyone being at the parade or staying home the sl day after Thanksgiving. I highly recommend you show up early cause eating in the dark is kind of a pain so we had to shine the light on our phones to eat. I ordered my first food at "Mega Load Burger", they had choice of sliders and the infamous pineapple bowl with your choice of shrimp, pork, or kalbI. You can even choose fried rice or macaroni and cheese instead, even though it was dark and I couldn't see my food I really enjoyed the flavor of my garlic and rice, they had chunks of pineapple at bottom which made it a little difficult to eat with a plastic fork, but I appreciate they didn't waste it. My boyfriend ordered what we thought was an elote or Mexican corn from "The Corn Project" it was very good but the corn was so small, was a bit expensive for $6. We finally decided to get drinks at "ICE HNL" we saw they had bloodbath drinks on Instagram but were out so we ordered the smokin drink love potion instead, which was good made a instagrammable photo. I also checked "Eat The Streets" page and saw Postmate and Aokis shaved ice was giving away free shaved ice! I thought it was a awesome way to give everyone some nice free treats, make sure you tip! As we were leaving I of course saw a table of donuts laid out! Modo donuts was selling mochi donuts for $2 each and I had exactly $4 left so I asked for cookies and cream and my boyfriend got the matcha flavor. I've never had mochi donuts in my life and I'm so upset I didn't buy more! It was so chewy and delicious my boyfriend tried to steal mine and I had to swat him away! Most business accept card but they have an ATM in the park Incase.
