    Pop up is in the Ige's catering location .My wife saw a post on Instagram about this pop up. Looking for items to complete or Christmas gift buying. Found a few items. They had gift baskets and alot of smaller items all gift wrapped. The cashier was pleasant and helpful. Enjoy

    Soft opening today (Dec 5, 2025) for their new gift shop! The grand opening will be this weekend, Saturday Dec 6th and Sunday Dec 7th. They have tons of cute gift packets to choose from, with prices ranging from $6-$24, and even more will be available during the grand opening. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. If you're looking for easy, fast, ready-to-go gift sets, this is definitely the place to check out!

    Ige's Halawa (owned and run separately from Ige's Aiea and Ige's in Mapunapuna/Masa's Cafeteria. Same family, just run by different siblings!) had to pivot during the pandemic when they had no more catering jobs. They did bentos and pop up bake sales and a myriad of other things to pay the bills. Today, they are focusing on catering. There is a bento catering menu, a buffet style catering menu and a buffet style funeral catering menu. They no longer serve lunch. They also sell ribbon leis during graduation season and a lot of pop up bake sales. The two sisters put a lot of effort into their bake sales. Ige's Halawa have been doing their bake sales (usually Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm) for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Boys and Girls Days, Boss Appreciation Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, Halloween, Christmas, etc. Follow them on IG or FB for info on pop ups @igeshalawa. The desserts I have had so far have been ono and beautifully presented. A mix of favorites and some creative ones as well. One of my faves is Aunty Kay's Okinawan Sweet Potato Manju. Those sell out fast. In addition to a constant rotation of themed desserts, they will sell a rotation of their famous andagi, potato salad, namasu, smoked meat, pasta salad, etc. It's a bit of a drive to get to their place in Halawa but I think it's worth it to support this local owned and operated family business!

    Thankful starts with some yummy meal! Every year mom seems to crave that tradition of Turkey and stuffing though since we don't eat much something that massive is just not possible and it breaks my heart as she asks about it again this year. Here pop up Ige's Instagram @igeshalawa and with images of their Thanksgiving Feast Bento!! It's like the New Years Osechi box filled with bites of every feast lovers dream! Turkey, mashed potato, baked ham with pineapple, stuffing, roasted veggies, cranberry sauce, gravy, dinner roll and a baked cookie all for $25!!! This feast must be pre-ordered for pick up on November 22nd and 23rd 10am to 4pm which normally would be impossible for me with my work schedule but this was the days I had my Lasik procedure and Tuesday was my follow up so I was able to swing by to pick it up!! Hallelujah!! Parking is painfully just a few and street parking pretty much non-existent but luckily I got there early and had no problems. Just pick up and all instructions are right on the micorwave safe container to heat and enjoy. From what looks like small bites was more than enough for the both of us to enjoy especially for Mom which thankfully made her day as you can taste the homemade goodness in each items. I'm so grateful for these efforts by Ige's as going to local places like Zippy's always sell which worked out perfectly! Thankfully Thank you!

    I can't believe it was my first time here! This place is in the Halawa industrial park area and when i got here there was a long line cause I believe this place is not open anymore but they just do catering or pop up bake sells along with some plate lunches. I went around Halloween time and I was in for a treat! The others that stood in line taught me which items were good. Someone told me gotta try their creamy pasta salad and strawberry cream cheese square which I did. I also bought a pack of mini pumpkin crunch and maki sushi handroll to go. This place has a following and I can see why.

    Fried noodles, chicken, potato Mac salad with 2 scoop rice
    Lei H.

    I've eaten there for a long time now and only now doing a review! If I could give them more stars, I would. Aside from having kanak attacks from there ginormous servings of fried noodles, shoyu pork and rice ( and Mac potato salad) plate lunches years ago, I have catered food for a family member's celebration of life service. The food was well loved by all who came. Their andagi is so good, too! I must add that their pork nishime is the best. My mom used to make it; but since she's passed away, I could never find someone who makes it like her...until Ige's! Their desserts are so good that it's hard to walk away with just one Highly recommend!

    Choice "C" bento
    Joyce T.

    This location also has BENTOs which I needed for my Celebration of Life event at Ballard Mortuary. They have 3 choices of Bentos from $12-$9. They have free delivery to mortuaries and the food arrived neatly on time. Best part was no clean up after! Email them your order and information. They will confirm the info and email you a bill. Done. Lot of people commented how tasty the Bentos were and the choice "A" bento was gone first. Of course they have their regular and funeral catering menu.

    Hazelnut, Chocolate & Mocha

    NOTE: This review is solely based on their Bake Sales! Since the pandemic started, Ige's has had little to no catering business. They have been trying to find creative ways to make up for the lost revenue. One way they have been trying to do this is by having bake sales for special holidays and on certain Saturdays! I've ordered baked goods a couple of times now. The first time I ordered their baked goods was for Thanksgiving. They were offering a Thanksgiving Dessert Platter that included pumpkin crunch bites, lilikoi bars, pumpkin Oreo cheecake and apple crisp cheesecake cupcakes. All the desserts were sooo good! Hopefully they will have these offerings again this fall! The next time I came here for for their Valentine's Day sale! I saw they were selling the newest viral dessert, Cocoa Bombs and I knew I had to get my hands on them! When I went, there was a variety of baked goods from banana bread to their infamous andagi. They also had a variety of Cocoa Bombs from churro to mocha to hazelnut! I decided to get 1 Classic, 1 Mocha (which had coffee flavored hot cocoa inside), and 1 Hazelnut! They were $5 each and were individually packaged with a cute bow on top for easy gifting! They also had directions on the bottom of each one. I gifted the Cocoa Bombs to my friends for Valentine's Day and they LOVED it! I was even told you could put coffee instead of hot milk in the Mocha one! My most recent visit was this passed weekend when they offered a Disneyland Inspired Food Day! They had EVERYTHING from corndogs to churros to turkey legs, and much more! This event turned out to be WAYYY more popular than they could have ever anticipated and the line was INSANE! By the time I was able to get in, there were only a few items left: M&M Brownie, Mint Julep, Mickey Cupcakes, and Mickey Beignets! All were sooo good! I know everyone is missing Disneyland and this was a fun and successful event! Follow them on IG @igeshalawa to see when their next bake sale is! We need to shop small and shop local as much as possible so these small businesses survive the pandemic!

    Mini shoyu chicken (sorry I bit into it)
    Jo-Anne S.

    I never knew there was an Iges so deep in Halawa valley. This is so great for all the folks in the industrial area! So, you have some parking, lots of menu and food selection to choose from (failed to take pictures - oops). But the specials, you need to follow them on IG, but I got lucky because they had a hand written one on a scratch paper . Because there was a line behind me, I quickly had to make a selection so I decided on mini shoyu chicken. Can't go wrong right? Expensive. Almost 10.00 bucks for a mini. A mini alright. 3 mini pieces of shoyu chicken with no shoyu sauce, so the chicken was dry . I ordered a large fountain drink and was told that they don't give straw, I guess due to the new ordinance. Oh wow. Ok. The lady at the register was not friendly but I think of you are a regular she is nice to you. My dog was happy with the chicken.

    Limited menu and hours. No longer serving breakfast and minis for lunch. Steady stream of customers. Great comfort food. Limited parking, only take out.

    Kathy Y.

    Ige Halawa lunch and catering open from 6:00 am - 1:00 pm. Small takeout only restaurant with very limited parking. Daily specials lunch plates along with sandwiches. Ordered the chicken mushroom which is chop chicken in cream of mushroom soup and shoyu chicken with was dry....probably won't order that again, a little disappointing! Hopefully the rest of the daily specials are better!

    Furikake party mix
    Cyndy K.

    Cyndy's Bottom Line: Onolicious plate lunches and more Parking up front, a small lot. Accepts credit cards I stopped in for lunch after taking my recyclables to Reynolds down the street. I didn't realize that Ige's Lunch & Catering was located in this area. Jackie was so nice and friendly and helped me navigate thru the large assortment of plate lunches. I decided to go with a mixed plate which is a choice of two menu items. I choose the popular hamburger steak and Furikake ahi. The plate lunch comes with rice and macaroni salad. The hamburger steak was smothered with tasty gravy and the hamburger was onolicious! I also enjoyed the Furikake ahi and the macaroni salad. I will definitely be back to try the other items. Breakfast is served until 10:00 am. Breakfast is served with two eggs any style, a choice of meat and two scoops of rice or a selection of breakfast sandwiches. For lunch there is a selection of sandwiches or hamburgers, cheeseburgers. There are a wide variety of baked goods such as cookies, breads, brownies and Furikake mix too. There is a menu of catering items and frozen soups and chili. Saturday is preorder be to sale with curbside pick up.

    Got to support HUOA with the donation option
    Kathy U.

    Participated in the Okinawa FEASTival by purchasing HUOA Donation andagi! Online pre-ordering was easy. I liked having to select a time (30 minute interval). Pick up was easy since there was adequate street parking on a Saturday and with the pick up time staggered, the line moved quickly. The staff just asked your name and your warm andagi appeared almost instantly. They came one dozen per brown paper bag. Bags were oily so you had to have your own plastic bag to put them in (wasn't offered the option to purchase a plastic bag but fortunately I always carry a couple in my purse). Got home 15 minutes later, opened a bag and started to devour the andagi even though we had just eaten lunch an hour ago. Hubby's fam is Uchinanchu (Okinawan) and they make awesome andagi, but as daughter said, nothing compares to Ige's. We don't usually get to eat it still warm but it's always delicious. This time they were warm, fresh, and amazingly crunchy! Everyone kept commenting on how good the crunch was! Am going to have to start picking up fresh made andagi from Ige's and not just settle for eating it at Grad parties or Celebration of life events! I'm hooked! Really wanted to pick up some maki sushi, too but since it was after lunch (I delayed in my pre-order so only afternoon time slots were available) and we were eating an early dinner, I refrained. But I did notice how nice and perfectly round they were, and how well centered the filling ingredients were.

    Mini potato stew with a little bit of beef added.

    Words cant even describe how delicious the food is at this local spot. Its best to call ahead of…read moretime to get a time slot to show up once you place a phone order. The service is faster that way. Otherwise you will be waiting in line for a long time. Its take-out only. I order the Firecracker Chicken. It is a decent size portion and amazing! Super ono! Highly recommend trying the Kiawe wood steak. Really great option! Support your local restaurants.

SERVICE: friendly n' fully staffed INTERIOR: one person/party can enter at a time. No dine-in; just order n' pay. EXTERIOR: in the same plaza/across from Dipped by Dee. Line forms to the right when facing store. Two benches in the line n' two tables with chairs to the left. WAIT TIME: highly recommend making a phone order n' if you can pre-pay over the phone too, even better. Placed phone order at 12pm on a Saturday, was told a 1 hour wait. Got there around 12:55pm n' the line was maybe 10 parties deep. After waiting 30 minutes, entered store to pay n' receive food. In total, about 1.5 hrs. Suggest getting in line immediately after placing phone order bc if unpaid, still gotta get in line to pay. PARKING: free lot that was completely full during our visit, tiny spaces. OVERALL COMMENTS: portion was huge; more than enough for two people. Plate was heavy. They don't skip on the fried rice n' chicken. Spicy ahi was definitely spicy, the kine heat you can't stop eating. The firecracker chicken was yuMmmy n' saucy. They gave at least 6-7 good size pcs. Maybe a combo of sriracha mayo n' sweet chili sauce. You get it all: sweet, savory, with a slight heat. Now the lup cheong fried rice was so good. Not dry at all n' very flavorful. The potato Mac salad was a good cool down n' to cleanse the palate. I'm already wanting it all again, which means everything was Ono!

I think the cake noodle was prepared the best that I've had because it was not oily but crispy on the outside tender noodle on the inside made fresh and the texture was better than others. I tried it dry before pouring over the gravy because we ordered it to go and they packed it nicely with the cake noodle and chicken separate container from the gravy. I wish I had a picture of the cake noodle. It was very nice.

    Super disappointed with the crazy service tonight…read more I placed an order outside using the kiosk for just a chicken katsu special at 5:52 PM since it was crowded inside and ended up waiting 45 minutes for that one plate. It wasn't just the waiting, it was the service and lack of communication that pushed it over. After placing my order, I entered the restaurant and waited on the side since there wasn't a place to sit and wait. The worker who was stationed at the front soon came back and asked "How can I help you?" and I mentioned that I ordered on the kiosk outside and she walked away without saying anything. Around 10 minutes in I noticed the worker mentioning to every person in line only after they tried to order that the wait would be 30 minutes for anything on the grill since they had a big order. The questions that came to mind every time a person attempted to order was "why wouldn't she tell them that they would have to wait 30 minutes from the beginning before they even tried to order so they could reevaluate if their orders needed the grill?" And "what items are not on the grill?" Every person in line would get frustrated as she wouldn't even show what items didn't need the grill.. They would say "Okay I want to order this instead" and she would keep saying "that's on the grill so you have to wait 30 minutes." Like they were supposed to know.. Who wouldn't get frustrated? Time went on and I found myself still waiting at 6:30 PM. When i heard her mentioning the chicken katsu wouldn't take long since it's not on the grill. No update, just me sitting on those high chairs obviously waiting for my order. It's worse because you don't get a buzzer for using the kiosk. I decided to ask about my order but still had to wait in line to talk to that same worker. When it was eventually my turn, I said "I wanted to check on my order" and showed her a picture of the kiosk with the order number because the kiosk didn't print a receipt for me and rudely responded with "Your order's already ready" and just handed it to me.. Excuse me? No one even bothered to tell me it was ready and she spoke to me like I was supposed to know it was ready. How long was it ready that I was wasting my time waiting there? Also, please fix the option on the kiosk when you select the chicken katsu; it should have the option or be defaulted with "White rice & mac salad" like your app. The kiosk is misleading and doesn't say you don't need to select "all rice" or the other up-charge options. So when she gave it to me and she said all rice I explained to her that I thought it was making me choose an option and she got defensive and said "No it doesn't." She eventually took it to the back to put mac salad then returned and rudely told me "Next time just don't select an option." Wow. It was not my fault that no one called me to tell me my order was ready. It was not my fault there was a flood of orders during dinner time. I like Oh My Grill but please do better with the customer service, especially with the person who's in charge at the front. I understand that it gets overwhelming when it's busy but the communication and customer service was just the worst. No one deserves to be treated like that especially when we come often. This was such a horrible experience.. Maybe won't come back for a while.
