I can't say I was amazed by the chicken. It was just ok to me. It might have been the piece I ate, but certain parts were dry and didn't have much taste. Wasn't horrible, but I expected a bit more. A bit expensive, but it's the price you would expect for a whole chicken.

We got 2 large plates of the half chicken with rice, mac salad, and corn, plus 2 extra sides of the pickled bitter melon and kim chee. Chicken was just okay. For me it was lacking some flavor and wasn't cleaned well. The chicken smell was a little overwhelming, even with the bitter melon and kim chee to mask it. I don't think I'll be back.

DO NOT ORDER HERE. They are currently closed even though their Uber Eats and DoorDash accounts show…read morethat they're accepting orders. I heard that they're closed for summer break, but I also heard that they're close permanently. Regardless, if you place an order on an app, good luck getting that refund! It took me over an hour chatting with different Uber Eats customer service, escalating the issue, and I finally received the refund days later because I refused to let it go. The food itself was just okay, but my husband was a fan. I didn't think the fried chicken was anything remarkable. If you want decent Korean fried chicken, go the little spot inside Paloma food court.

I ordered the K-Crispy Chicken "Whole Pieces" and really got ripped off…read more Out of the 10 Piece box, only 3 pieces, 1 leg, 2 wings were complete pieces. They actually cut in half 5 pieces of the Chicken Backs and each 1/2 counted as a piece of overcooked chicken jerky! I also got a 1/3 of a breast section with bones and not even a 1/2 of a thigh. That totals my 10 pieces. More bones and excess crispy flour then consumable meat. NOBODY gives a Chicken back (or 1/2 a back)! Not Popeyes, not KFC or Zippy's who will remain my Favorite because I will only get ripped off the 1st time, never again. Additionally, they make you buy the sauce, the reason is due to no seasoning on the over floured bread...but it IS Crispy! The Chicken tenders were overcooked and REALLY Chewy around the edges. Just a LOT of breaded Crispy with no flavor, what "Chef" doesn't even use salt? Really, if you're going to risk testing this food, PAY for some sauce! I hope the Owner reads this and realizes that ripping people off by selling broken pieces that most Chef's throw away because they have so little meat on them, isn't going to keep him in business. The profit margin may be up while folks are trying it, spending their hard earn $$$'s, yet not coming back will be the ultimate demise of this business as many other have come and gone doing the exact same thing, not putting themselves in he patron's position. Ask yourself this: When was the last time you saw a bowl of whole chicken pieces and immediately grabbed one that was back bone chopped in half?

Chicken was deeeeeeeeelicious! Best tasting chicken we've had yet on the island…read more So glad we stopped here before heading up to north shore. Will definitely return on our next trip to oahu. We've been comparing all chicken from this trip to Maui Mike's! It set the bar, for sure! Tip: It's across the street from McD. They have their own parking, main entrance is at the corner. Inside you can order at the counter to eat in the dining area or to go. There is also a back door, visible from the parking lot, for pickup to go orders. When we pulled up, we thought the signs indicated that they were to go only. Once we learned we can order and eat inside, we decided to go that route. Looking for good fire roasted chicken you e GOT to try Maui Mikes

Upon walking…read morein, you'll notice that they don't have a very large menu- you walk up and order, they give you a card, and you find a table (VERY limited tables BTW!). I suggest that someone orders while the other person looks for a table. I got their chicken drum and thigh, some sweet potato fries, and a drink, and it came out to around $ 17-ish USD, if I remember correctly? Totally worth it for me because it wasn't a lot of food, but the chicken was juicy, and the sweet potato fries were cooked just right. After finishing our meal, my friends and I each got a chocolate chip cookie, and that was the **chef's kiss** to the meal! All in all, I'm going to come back here again!!

Nothing against Waikiki Chicken in Paradise, but I'm not going to lie - I had no idea the mini food…read moretruck park they're located in even existed, let alone had them on my list of bookmarks. However, after having to abandon our original dinner plans, we were no less intrigued after randomly stumbling across this place. While they may not have been our first choice for dinner, coming here was far more appealing than eating fast food or at the nearby IHOP! Although seeing so many folks at this mini food truck park may have been what caught our attention, it was the boxes of fried chicken on nearly every table that swayed us to try Waikiki Chicken in Paradise in particular. After skimming the menu, it wasn't hard to see why they were such a popular choice - everything on it sounded great. Granted, that's not overly difficult when there are only eight items to choose from, but tough to argue with the likes of fried chicken loco moco, fried chicken curry rice, fried chicken sandwiches, chicken & croffle, and fish & chips! Since we saw how big the portion were and didn't want anything too heavy (read: sadly, no loco moco or Japanese curry), we opted to split a FRIED CHICKEN RICE PLATE ($16.95) which came with a Fried Chicken Cutlet over White Rice with Mac Salad & Green Salad. Funny enough, despite already having a sense of how much food they give, I was still surprised by the generous portion size. As for how it all tasted, this was great. The breading on the chicken reminded me of Popeye's (though, without the spice), the batter was crispy, and the chicken itself was rather moist. As for the sides, the mac salad was pretty good, but the salad was a little heavy on dressing. If there was one thing I could change about our order, I think I'd want to see how it would taste with a sauce or glaze. At the very least, I'd definitely go with a different dipping sauce, like their Pineapple Ginger, Lilikoi Mayo, or Guava BBQ, as the Honey Mustard we went with tasted a bit generic. Of course, we could've solved both problems if we had gone with the Fried Chicken Loco Moco or Fried Chicken Curry Rice instead! I guess I'll just have to wait until the next time I'm in Waikiki!

I've ordered from this location previously. Today I was about to place my usual order of snow…read morechicken wings and mandoo - satisfying either hot or cold - when I saw they have fried chicken gizzards! Yesssss! Not impossible, but hard to find in Hawaii. And oh they were worth it. They were properly fried so they were done, but not over-fried. They were juicy instead of dried out. A little greasy, but not so much it was disgusting. If I had to share, it would be necessary to get two orders. I will definitely order from this location again and get the gizzards. Kudos to whoever was staffing the fryer today - both the gizzards and the snow wings were exceptionally well-prepared.

Waited almost 20 minutes for my plate and chicken was not cooked through. I took it back to the…read morecounter and asked her to cook it a bit longer, and I was pointed to a sign that said something about "pinking in poultry" and assured that it was fine to eat, but based on the look of the chicken I was not comfortable eating it at all. I uploaded this picture into chat gpt with the business explanation of the pinking in poultry and according to AI, "Pinking" can happen in cooked poultry -- but what you're showing in the photo does not look like harmless pinking. Here's the difference in plain language: Harmless "pinking" (still fully cooked) * Happens from smoking, high heat, or certain proteins. * The meat is fully opaque, firm, and cooked through. * Only the outer edge or near the bone looks pinkish. What your picture shows * The meat looks translucent, soft, and raw, especially near the joint. * There are dark, bloodlike areas around the bone. * The texture looks undercooked, not just color-changed from chemical reactions. Even with pinking, cooked chicken never looks glossy or raw in the center the way yours does. I decided not to go back to the counter because there was a language barrier and I felt the woman wasn't listening to me in the first place anyway. Threw pretty much all the food away and left hungry and down $20.

Takeout dinner from Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Heaven's Soul Food Cuisine (food truck) was two trucks away from Chicano's taco truck, across from the Convention Center.

I believe that they worker said, "I appreciate you!" Wow! That's very nice of him! We took the plate home (it was too windy to sit alongside the busy sidewalk) and discussed the tasty ribs, sweet (molasses?) Baked beans and yummy green beans with smoked turkey. Mmm!

It was all young boys working when I went on a weekend, they looked a bit overwhelmed, but they did a great job on getting food out and being friendly.

Open for 3-4 years, it is one of those hole-in-the-wall places that locals who live and work in the neighborhood are cognizant of as a hidden gem.

Looking at the menu on the picture window...I had to wonder is Uncle: Korean...African-American...Deep South gentleman? Well, I think he's Taiwanese. Menu revolves around chicken. They have plates, sandwiches, and slushies. I got the Taro Hokkaido Slushie for takeout. It was okay...I can't tell you what it tastes like...other than that it was sweet. The Grilled Chicken Sandwich was unassuming. It was slightly spiced...a bit different than I am used to and it had a bit of a kick. I would not order anything spicy from their menu. Piece of battered chicken breast that was both juicy and flavorful. A real surprise. Service was just under 15 minutes...I walked in and ordered takeout. There was one order ahead of me. Dining area is bigger than you would think, but there are only four tables inside...it is mostly a takeaway place. Parking stalls are for Uncle's and the plaza. Stalls at Upscale, as well.
