    Fresh donuts in Honolulu, Hawaii... This is the second location of Island Glazed. AMR stands for Aliamanu Military Reservation. It's located in the Salt Lake area - and you don't need a pass to get in and out of the gate. Because Island Glazed has light, fluffy, yummy donuts at the Pearl Kai Shopping Center, I wanted to compare that original location with this second location. Both stores have free parking and friendly, efficient service! This AMR shop is cozy and is more of a takeout place... not so much of a dine-in spot. However, there's some outdoor dining if you want to munch on your donut right there. I ate in the car... I got the chocolate macadamia nut donut. I like chocolate in general and I also like macadamia nuts. Add these ingredients onto a yeast donut... and BAM! It's like inhaling a cloud! LOL! The hotdog in a bun also caught my attention! It's good for those who enjoy savory... is it like "piggy in a blanket"? Anyway, both items were good! Thanks for the fun treats!

    Came across this donut place upon my search for a coffee shop and found ourselves on military property. It was tucked away in a corner and its kind of easy to miss if you're not looking for the shop directly. The shop itself was very small with no seating indoors, think take-out only. They had a variety of different flavored donuts and we went for Ube. The donut was good but not anything extraordinary. They also offer other drinks and we had an iced macadamia nut latte. The iced latte was delicious (if you like sweet and milky coffee like me).

    Not puffy, but flat and dense. With oil.

    I was so disgusted by the donuts I picked up I had to immediately come on yelp to leave a review. This is our first time at this location and we had no idea this location existed until we happened upon it when stopping by the PX store or whatever it's called (I'm a civilian, don't come at me for not knowing what it's called). Daughter wanted donuts, so we went in to check it out. The employees were friendly and patient as we made our decision on a half dozen. One star for that. With all the cool flavors, we were so excited and wanted to try them all. We settled on blueberry, strawberry sprinkle, mango, oreo, chocolate sprinkle, and original glazed. Got our donuts, left, and brought them to the park to enjoy. Went to grab my blueberry donut and immediately felt something was wrong because of how heavy it was. Took a closer look and noticed they're not puffed up like donuts, but instead flat. I took a bite and got a mouth full of oil. Did not expect that. Literally had my mouth drooling out oil. I have never had a donut this bad. Never experienced anything like this with donuts. And I am so disgusted and sad we spent $20 on half a dozen donuts that we can't eat. All of them are like this. They were so soggy with oil that the donut ripped as i was trying to pick it back up. Terrible experience and I'm so disappointed my kids now have nothing to snack on, and that I spent $20 on donuts we can't even eat. I've had island glazed before and they were NOTHING like this. I should've known better when I looked through the case and they all looked sad and flat. I dislike donuts and hardly eat them, but this experience takes the cake. I feel bad because I almost never buy my kids donuts and I thought I'd splurge a bit to let them try these unique flavors, and now they're just left disgusted and disappointed too. Literally bought these donuts less than an hour ago and I'm throwing them away. We came on a Saturday morning, just after they opened. So disappointed. I'd ask for a refund but no way am I keeping these oil sponges in my car. ***SAME DAY UPDATE*** With quick, attentive staff responding to my review, we went back and got a refund. The employees were extremely apologetic. Overall, service was great, but product unfortunately is not. I'm really hoping this was an off day for this location. Raising my rating from one star to two. Service is 5 stars but the donuts were just too memorable in the wrong way. I'm sorry.

    I came here because the reviews looked good. Unfortunately the donuts I received were absolutely disgusting and tasted like they had been soaking in oil. Upon the first bite, I had oil dripping down my face and coating my hands. I think it might've just been a bad batch since I see other bad reviews from today only. Fortunately, the coffee was excellent.

    This shop is small yet cute. The donuts were soft and moist. The flavors were well balanced and not too sicky sweet.

    I do recommend this donut shop. The donut is soft, different flavor and delicious. But the price is expensive.

    We came here for açaí bowls after reading some yelp reviews. We normally go all the way to…read moreWaikiki's Waffle and Berry for our açaí fix, but living in Aiea makes it so far! We ordered the açaí bowl, (small $12.50 and large $14.50) and also ordered popsicles (10 for $15). Already the price of this was way cheaper than W&B. Liked it! I apologize for the lack of photos of our açaí bowls, but I have a bad habit of digging in right away then realizing that I forgot to take photos when it's half gone. I'll attach photos when I go back...because I most definitely will be back! I think I still prefer the taste W&B açaí, but the açaí here is really good and satisfies the craving! The popsicles on the other hand, were just ok. It was described as large otter pops and while I wouldn't go THAT far, I don't think I'll get those again. Didn't try the juice yet, but the price is pretty high so not sure if I'll get around to it. Especially since the açaí is soooo good!!! I'll probably always get that instead!

    I wish I could give this place a 3.5 overall, but the service deserves 0 stars…read more From the moment we walked in, there was zero acknowledgment from the employee. She was watching Tinker Bell on the TV and didn't greet us or even look up - no hello, no smile, just awkward silence. We were the only ones in the store and still had to awkwardly approach the counter just to get help. As first-time customers, there was also no explanation of the scoop sizes or pricing, which made ordering more confusing than it needed to be. When we finally ordered, two items were made correctly, but one person in our group ordered dragonfruit gelato. The employee started scooping strawberry instead, and even after we politely pointed it out, there was no acknowledgment or apology--just silence. It made for a really uncomfortable interaction. While we were eating, the employee went into the back, and we could hear her loudly scrolling on social media with the volume on full blast, even laughing at times. Toward the end of our visit, she came back to the front, sat down, and continued on her phone. The entire atmosphere felt so awkward that we decided to leave and finish our gelato in our cars. Even as we walked out, there was no thank you, no goodbye--no acknowledgment at all. It was honestly disappointing. That said, the gelato itself is actually really good, and the interior of the shop is nice. That's the only reason I'd consider coming back. Unfortunately, the service really brought the experience down. Proper customer service training is definitely needed. I would come back for sure, but I wouldn't return if that same employee was behind the counter.

    It's damn good. They give so much food and the quality never falters. Kalihi has some of the BEST…read morefood places - it's no secret. This place definitely lives up to the hype of Kalihi's food joints. Garlic chicken was flavorful and plenty, and that Teriyaki combo plate was bursting at the seams. So much delicious food. Couldn't finish in one sitting (of course those plates were gigantic) so was able to have it for dinner as well! There was some dine-in sitting, but it's basically a take-out and sit down vibe. The service was quick and helpful. They call out your order for you to pick up and you can sit down and eat, or take it home. Had lots of locals hanging around so that's how you know this place is legit - which it is. Would definitely come back if in the area again. This place has delicious food.

The pic they posted looked good and was said to be tasty so decided to give it a try. I ordered that for my husband and the Roast Pork with gravy $11.99 special for me. The menu with specials are taped to their window as you enter the restaurant. Ordered both with gravy on the rice...no extra charge. Yay! The hamburger steak was okay but we both thought it was a little salty. As for the roast pork, it was tender and tasty. They gave a lot...6 pieces to be exact. I would definitely order this again! Both plates fed us for 2+ meals each.
