Delicious Double Cheeseburger no onions.
Rose O.

Look at the size of this double cheeseburger! I was so hungry. It was our first day here and it was a long flight. I gobbled it all up. Thank you, Tina, for bringing it out so quickly. Great job!

Breakfast!

Come here daily for breakfast daily while in Hawaii and wasn't disappointed. I was on here for Honeymoon week and our hotel, while in a nice area, did not have free breakfast or any breakfast of any type. Because we had to wake up early for excursions and couldn't be stuck behind lines for some of the other breakfast options, this was our go-to spot. By the end of the week, most of the staff knew who we were. Service was great and the food is fresh. Normally I wouldn't be a Denny's fan, but the food was just really good. They gave coffee to go daily too. The only negative is the high prices, but that is Hawaii for you.

Southwestern Benny Breakfast
Ruby S.

Trio had visited this location three times for breakfast. Each time we've had a different server and sat in a different area either at a table or booth. We may have to wait at least 15 to 30 minutes on weekends or holidays. At this location, write your name and number of people in your party on sign in sheet clipboard located on counter. There's a section of cushioned seats in the waiting area. If lobby is full, wait outside. If waiting outiside, I highly recommend checking sign in sheet periodically so you don't miss your turn. I was super hungry and ordered Southwestern Benny Breakfast. Chorizo hidden inside the perfectly made eggs Benedict delivered spicy. Hold off the Tapatio. Not necessary. Creaminess from egg yolk soothed spicy palate and complemented crispy hash browns. I ate everything. I also craved for sweet and asked for Ala Carte Strawberry Stuffed French Toast. SIightly crispy on the edges. Structure held up and coated well with egg batter. Coconut syrup around edges, sliced strawberries, strawberry syrup and powder sugar paired well with French toast. Stuffed on outside. Not on inside. I was only able to eat one since my tummy felt satisfied and full. I took the second French toast home in a to go container.

I ordered through uber eats on 3/17. I ordered a cobb salad with crispy chicken and i received my salad with a very long hair in my food. Very disturbing and gross, and wa

I feel like I haven't been to Denny's in forever. It's been that long. The T-Mobile Tuesday app had an offer of 70% off their Original Grand Slam. Alright, they got me and I decided to go. Our server was Cierra (sp), she told me her name but didn't have a name tag on. She was the best and told me that that location was the only one on the island open 24 hrs. I got a strawberry shake to go with my grand slam. The Original Grand Slam comes with two eggs, two strips of bacon, two pieces of sausage and two pancakes. Everything was on point. My over easy eggs were perfect and my bacon was crispy. The pancakes were light and fluffy. I didn't have high hopes for the milkshake, but that came out perfect as well. They even brought me the leftover that couldn't fit in the glass in a metal cup. I wasn't expecting that. I'm not sure how other items taste at Denny's, but it's five stars for my grand slam and milkshake. It's also five stars for the service I got. Cierra was on top of everything.

After a salad dinner, Dessert!  Short stack pancakes and Brioche French Toast; we asked for sugar free syrup to make it somehow OK

This is a good Denny's! Went here on my last night in Hawaii as an alternate choice. Had reservations at Outrigger Reef's Monkeypod but it was crazy loud! Dueling music with classic live Hawaiian music at the hotel's Grill near the pool but music was at volume 10 (how folks could eat listenin to a show at that volume?) but it was competing with the private promotional event (invite only) playing house music next door before Monkeypod...oh my head and my hearing! Forget having any good dinner conversation so we escaped and spied this Denny's across the street! Roy's was also across the street but pancakes were calling to us. Place was clean, had families, and service was attentive enough even though only 1 waiter. Food was actually good, well-done diner food. Did I tell you this location is 24/7?!! It was a great choice with no regrets!

Do they have gluten free pancakes?

Do they have a new promotion on the eggs Benedict?

Good question.....I know they have a bigger menu, so they might have a new promotion on Eggs Benedict :)

Do they have a bar do they serve beer?

No bar, no alcohol served, no alcohol allowed in the restaurant

Is the $8.99 steak and eggs good? Is it US meat or from Brazil?

Not sure... I didn't check the cows' passport before I ate it.

Is there parking?

Unfortunately, no.

K all the whistle I am waiting I no feel good and all I wanted to get my saimin wonton min and go home. Wait I kinda pissed cause now I gotta cook and I Neva like cause I no feel good. The sandwich tastes like a plastic chopping board. I since they changed owners I really haven't gone I feel good not as good as before but try different things to see if a different out comes happens but local. I didn't care of the cost of it would save me from cooking and driving again when I do not feel good. Maybe your cashiers should repeat the order just to make sure the customer get what they ordered and clean out the hoses for your soda machines. I worked in fast food lots of standards and regulations. Not going here again. Said cause not to many places like this now.

This really felt like the kind of neighborhood staple where people stop by with their families, grab a plate, and go about their day. No muss, no fuss, just good food. Everything came out hot, delicious, and distinctly comforting. Nothing pretentious or overly complicated, just hearty portions of food that really hit the spot. I could absolutely see myself ending up here after a night out, looking for something filling and satisfying. It's the kind of place that doesn't need to do anything fancy because it knows exactly what it is. Definitely worth a stop if you're looking for a casual, satisfying meal that feels a little more like everyday Hawaii!

Check out this place homestyle Hawaiian plates with multiple different options and combinations don't judge the food you have to have it. It has subtle flavors deeply, rooted, cultural identity. Simple yet talk talks about history. When you use display, you can see old school Hawaiian folks explaining you what this food means to them and serve you a plate full of their food of different portions. It's plenty of food for one person to eat. They are very welcoming and they will feel proud of serving this to the guest. It's a very old-school vibe since it's Hawaii. It's mostly outdoor seating but this place is always. It's been there around for a while now and I don't think they're ever going downhill one of the best places to try even though they're plenty of other options for you.

Really convenient to have Liliha Bakery nearby, but the experience was a bit of a mixed bag…read more We arrived right at opening, and somehow the line was already moving pretty slowly. There also didn't seem to be much organization, so keep that in mind if you're trying to make a quick stop. As for the pastries, there were some definite winners! We LOVED the poi mochi donut, and surprisingly, the cinnamon roll (which I know isn't exactly what you come to Hawaii for) was AMAZING. The cream puff was also really tasty, but the texture of the shell gave the impression that it had been baked hours earlier and filled more recently. It held together well and tasted good, but it wasn't quite the fresh, delicate pastry I was hoping for. The biggest disappointment was the French donut. None of us could really get through it. The topping tasted overwhelmingly of straight cocoa powder, and the cruller-style donut underneath was just not good. Overall, some real hits and some pretty significant misses. I'd happily come back for the poi mochi donut and cinnamon roll, but I wouldn't go out of my way for everything else.

We put our names on the list and there were a handful of parties before us. Fortunately, we only waited about 20 minutes to get seated on a Saturday. The place is like a spacious diner with a bar counter, booths and lots of tables. Look for the beautiful, long bench table that's carved from a tree. Our server, Jason, greeted us with a warm smile and took our drink and food orders. We got a few items that we don't usually see at Hawaiian restaurants back home. Hawaiian Moco: opted for the lau lau as suggested with lomi salmon and macaroni salad. For $24.99, it was huge, succulent, flavorful and worth the price point! Smoked Moco: the Kiawe-smoked meat was tender, sautéed with bell peppers and onions and topped with a yummy smoked aioli and local egg. The mini for $16.99 was the perfect portion for me. Fish Tacos: the fish was fresh, cooked perfectly on taro tortillas with chili aioli, avocado mousse, shredded lettuce and lomi salmon. The fries were thick and crispy too. Squid Lū'au Combo: with lomi salmon and poi, sweet potato and haupia (a coconut dessert) the squid was cooked in a starchy broth. It was like nothing I've had before. Not too salty but not strong in flavor either. This was my friend's choice and she loves it. We enjoyed everything we had and were so stuffed! They validate parking for the structure.

The pork chops were a little more cooked than I'm used to, and the fried rice seemed to have a bit more rice and less of the other ingredients I remember. Just a couple of small differences from what I've come to expect over the years. Parking in this area can be challenging, but valet was available for $8 plus tip, which made things much easier when dining in. Overall, Side Street Inn remains a familiar go-to for its casual atmosphere, generous portions, and a great place to gather with friends over food and drinks.
