@fortunefoodfinds: "Weekends are much BUTTER when you get to do the things you LOB(ster)! One of them being for me is going out n' eating good with my famILY while supporting local. We made a visit to Jolene's Hawaii in Ewa Beach n' I ordered a Buttah Lobster Roll + Waffle Fries with Creamy Sauce n' Birria Wontons + Consomme. I gotta say aside from the chunky garlic buttah n' meaty lobstah, the Asian style pickled veggies in the roll, give the crunchy texture n' next level flavor that is deliciously out of control!" SERVICE: friendly INTERIOR: small, table seating can get filled up quickly, nice decor, the best is they have a sink to easily wash your hands EXTERIOR: in the same plaza as Ross, has picnic style tables on the side of restaurant + one right in front WAIT TIME: 15 mins between placing order n' receiving food PARKING: large free lot OVERALL COMMENTS: my go-to is their buttah lobster roll, which always hits the spot. Everything about it is delicious. I make it a combo n' either get the corn chowder or waffle fries, which are both great complimenting sides. The birria wontons are crispy n' make a nice appetizer or side to any meal. Especially with the consommé, full of flavor with a mild heat. Jolene's always has lots of good food n' drinks to choose from! read more

Jolene's is a trendy eatery that offers burgers, sandwiches, and comfort food like corn chowder. We usually make our way to Jolene's whenever we crave for their tasty lobster rolls and cheesy grilled cheese sandwich! We love coming and eating in here as the staff are friendly and we love the atmosphere. I do suggest ordering online if you're doing take-out as it can get pretty busy and there may be a bit of a wait for your food! What we ordered: -Buttah Lobster Roll -Classic Grilled Cheese (we made it a combo with waffle fries) -Mozzarella Sticks -Thai Milk Tea read more

I really like their BBQ brisket melt -- honestly better than the lobster, but that might just be because I'm not a fan of cold sandwiches. The brisket melt is warm, flavorful, and always satisfying. I also always get the slushie to drink, which pairs perfectly with the meal. The staff is friendly, the parking is easy, and the prices are decent for what you get. I also recommend getting the soup as a side -- it rounds out the meal really well. Overall, a solid spot with good food, great service, and simple convenience. read more

Tried the fried chicken sandwich and oh my lord... it was HUGE. I swear there were like 4-5 chunks/strips of food ole fried chicken in there, and the fixings were out of this world. It came out hot and fresh. Everything I've tried here has been so good. My friend loves the lobster roll and refuses to order anything else. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Trust me, your hands will get messy from all the juiciness--but no worries, there's a sink inside the restaurant so you can wash up. Water cups are $0.50, but totally worth it since the cups are extra cute and reusable. Also, the brisket sandwich deserves a recognition, it has a nice, thick slab of brisket. Waffle fries are $4 extra, but they complement pretty much anything you order. At this point, I need to make a copy of the menu and cross off items as I try them. I'm convinced everything on the menu is scrumptious. read more

Have yet to have anything bad from Jolene's! Love the spicy chicken the melt the most, definitely my go to! And you can't go wrong with ANY of the loaded fries! (Highly recommend the brisket and bring a friend because it's a lot!) The service is always top notch, we usually order ahead and take it to go. But the inside is very nice and there are games to play while waiting for your food. read more

Today I ordered a garlic shrimp plate, it was supposed to come with rice and a "toss salad." Sad to report that the toss salad was a salad in name only and was more of garnish. It's a small amount of shredded lettuce with a bite of pickles that they put the hot shrimp on top of, which causes it to essentially cook. read more

This place was 10/10 all around. We were greeted as soon as we walked in, service was excellent. We were given menu suggestions, allergies were taken seriously, and she truly did help us find foods that fit our flavor preferences. I got the spicy chicken melt and my gosh was it good. The chicken was crisp, juicy, and the gochujang sauce was DELICIOUS! My husband got the double down and said that it was incredible. The pastrami to brisket ratio was perfect and they added just the right amount of bbq sauce to enhance the meat flavors but not over power. My daughter also loved her grilled cheese. It was definitely more cheese than bread and she even tried tomato soup for the first time- also loved it. We also took a gamble and tried the toast of the month. I will admit I'm not a big "fake strawberry" flavor girl so I was worried I wouldn't like it but it was delicious. It's also the perfect size for sharing! The cook here really knows how to combine flavors and make perfect ratios for sure. We ate in- place was spotless, smelled nice, and was very fun and "Instagram" like if you're into that sort of stuff. We genuinely can't wait to go back and try more. read more

Great atmosphere, delicious food, and wonderful service! Row (Rowena) was such a delight -- so inviting, warm, and hospitable. The pricing was perfect for the food quality and portion sizes. I also loved their assorted drinks, especially the Thai Iced Coffee, which was my favorite. I'll definitely be recommending Jolene's in Ewa Beach and will be returning again. Thank you, Row, for the amazing customer service! Love supporting our local businesses!! read more

Came here for lunch for the first time and I opted for the buttah burger. I believe I had their lobster roll long time ago when they were downtown and I remember liking it. Anyways, didn't know they had other locations. Walked in, easy to order the cashier was friendly and helpful in answering my questions. I noticed they had a lot of anime figurines around the space which was cool AND they have a clean sink which was nice to wash your hands before you eat. Convenient. Good came out pretty quick and it was tasty! I had a single burger. It had like a thousand Island dressing sauce and some pickled vege! The kine on a viet sandwich which went well with the burger - gave it some crunch and tangyness which I liked. I also got side of corn chowder which was good. A little on the thinner side but taste was there. I'd be happy to go eat here again if in the area. read more

Amazing service and staff was quick to address an issue with my order! Ordered online for the buttah lobster roll and the bbq brisket fries. I swore I requested no onions on the buttah lobster roll and when I got home there were onions! I drove back and told them that I ordered online and requested no onions and asked for them to remake the sandwich. I was quite heated but when they checked they said my order did not show the request to hold the onions. I was even more heated but with myself! After all that they still were willing to remake the sandwich!!!! Super disappointed with myself but very grateful that they did that for me! Buttah lobster roll is delicious - it's served cold and comes with chunks of lobster topped with pickled veggies, sliced onions, cilantro and a lemon wedge. There's no modifications such as asking to have lobster warmed or served without mayo. But you can remove items (onions, cilantro etc.) just make sure to ask! BBQ Brisket fries are a generous portion of waffle fries topped with their brisket and drizzled with BBQ sauce. One order easily can be shared between two hungry adults! BBQ sauce is tangy and brisket is tender and flavorful. This place is a bit pricey but overall I'd recommend it based on flavor but mostly based on their customer service! read more

Great little spot to have some burgers, plate lunches or lobster rolls. Very casual spot that is perfect for a quick brunch to meet with friends. The cashier was very nice and there are enough seats for groups comfortably up to 4. I saw people studying and working here too, though I thought the music was a little loud. read more

The honey lemon tea is soooo good! The staff members were friendly and the dining area has games available to play, which is always a great addition. I took a star because my sandwich was very oily, which I personally do not like. I would go back and try something else. read more

We stoped by on our drive across the island. Everyone enjoyed their food, but the drinks became the star of the show. The kids ordered the Mango Slushies and my husband ordered the cookie butter milk tea and they were all so good! The service was a little slow but I know everyone was trying their best, they were very busy. It was a cute little spot but it could be hard to find seating during busy times. When we walked in there were no tables but luckily when we got our food some had opened up. read more

This was our first stop when we arrived on the island (Oahu) for vacation my kids (both young adults in their 20s now) had never been to Hawaii and wanted to experience the island cuisine and culture in an authentic way before being inundated with the tourist traps surrounding downtown Honolulu. And so we came to jolene's for a casual lunch. Jolene's is situated in the middle of a large shopping center and would not necessarily stand out if you weren't looking for it. It is a great place if you're looking for a quick coffee and sandwich or a lunch plate. My family really enjoyed the food and the casual atmosphere we got here. They had a clean facility, friendly staff, and tasty food choices. My wife opted for one of their burgers. I think she chose the buttah-burger. She loved it. My daughter opted for the lobster roll, which is a traditional East Coast style lobster sandwich. My son and I opted for more traditional island fare so we ordered...Loco Moco and a smoked pork plate. There were both Fantastic. For most items, we paid between $10-$20. It was a cool place to eat and a nice first experience for the kids with local island style dining. When we come back we will try to check this place out again. read more

No kanaks today! read more

The BBQ Brisket Melt at Jolene's in ʻEwa Beach is SO good! Easily one of my go-to lunch spots. The brisket is tender, flavorful, and perfectly sauced, and the melt is just the right balance of savory and comforting. Every bite hits, and it's always satisfying. The only small thing I wish is that fries came with the meal instead of being a separate add-on -- but honestly, it's still worth it every time. On top of the great food, the customer service is excellent. Friendly, welcoming, and efficient they really make you feel taken care of. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving a solid, flavorful lunch! read more

Update: I called the restaurant and talked with the manager and she explained that they wash the lettuce and dry with napkin so that could be why the napkin was in the bun. She said she will talk with staff to make sure they check more carefully for such things. She did comp the burger for me and gave credit for my next visit. We got an order for curbside pickup (online order) and took it home. Started to serve everyone and took a bite into a soggy bun. Opened the bun to find a soaked napkin placed inside the hamburger! read more

Had the lobster roll + it was delicious!! I'd get it again! Only thing was when I walked inside, it had a horrible smell. Like a mildew smell or a dirty wet rag that was being used to wipe down the tables etc? Idk but I couldn't wait to pay + get out! read more

We got takeout & they exceeded my expectations. We would have eaten there but we were actually exhausted from a long day sightseeing and exploring, we just wanted to get to the resort and relax. The establishment looks very clean and feels inviting. The neon wall and wall art and very nice touches. They have a very good menu- so many tasty options. I ordered the buttah lobster roll with fries and my partner ordered the brisket melt. My partner is a tough food critic specially with meats. He hates chewy cartilaginous pieces, overcooked, under-seasoned and sloppy food- he loved his brisket melt. Zero complaints. Everything was flavorful, delicious and fresh. The girl that was taking the orders was patient, so sweet, kind and even gave me a compliment. If you're in Oahu, skip the dining in waikiki and support the local hidden gems like Jolene's. I highly recommend and will absolutely return when I go back to Oahu. In the meantime I'll be craving and thinking about their food in Miami. Mahalo for the ono grindz. read more

After getting our refreshing matcha drinks from Pua Blooms, my dad and I grabbed some lunch. My dad has never had their lobster rolls before, so I treated him to some and he thoroughly enjoyed it! - ($.): New England styled butter lobster roll with a house baked bread layered with a bed of fresh lettuce, onions, and asian-styled pickled vegetables topped with their lobster mix, garlic butter, chopped cilantro, and a sliced lemon - The rolls came out about 10-15min after we ordered, so they were nice and slightly warm once we got to eat them! The staff were quick and packed the items very nicely. The veggies add balance to the lobster mix as it provides a fresh, zesty and acidic taste to the buttery lobster and warm bread There is a lot of parking out front that is free. The inside is not the biggest, so either take it out or avoid bringing big groups. - at various locations on O'ahu, HI in Honolulu, Ewa Beach, and Kaneohe (their Chinatown location is permanently closed) read more

I came here with a friend and we got the lobster roll, spicy sausage roll, and the brisket loaded fries! Man o man was ALL of it good!! The rolls were perfectly buttered yet not soggy at all. The meat was fresh and flavorful. The waffle fries were sooo crispy and seasoned so well, even with all the sauce and brisket on it, it never got soggy! We also got the rose lemon and honey lemon teas which are TO DIE FOR! this is a MUST VISIT place to eat. We have decided to come back and bring our husbands as often as possible lol. read more

Another update 8/8/2025. Finally tried their BBQ Brisket Burger. It has their 18 hr smoked brisket, Asian style picked veggies(daikon, lettuce, sweet Asian dressing), bbq & creamy sauce. The brisket burger didn't disappoint. It was tender and tasty and I was surprised by its hefty weight. The sauces and Japanese daikon veggies with the sweet Asian dressing surprisingly complemented well with the brisket. The traditional BBQ sauce was ok but really not essential and to me was a slight distraction. This brisket burger was literally a handful but my big appetite put that sucker away in short order. I ordered it as a combo with soup. I didn't care for the Tomato Bisque soup. It was very tart and tangy, not rich, smooth and creamy like I expected so I couldn't finish it and sadly had to knock off a star. That being said, most of the main menu items so far have been great and the service is always great with a smile. Management trains their employees well. I also like the green garden-inspired artificial foliage that covers the walls that gives it a cozy & trendy ambiance. Yes, I'll be back to try more items on their menu. read more

If you haven't visited Jolene's Market in Ewa Beach, you should check them out! I enjoyed their Fried Chicken Sandwich with Onion Rings and Birria Melt with Spicy Consommé. The onion rings were crispy and flavorful, and the spicy consommé had a nice kick, though a bit too spicy for me. They kindly offered tomato bisque instead, which was also delicious for dipping. Known for its lively atmosphere and comfort food, Jolene's offers gourmet burgers and sandwiches. The laid-back, hipster vibe is perfect for socializing. The menu includes burgers, sandwiches, and seafood, with standout dishes like lobster rolls and beef brisket. The inviting environment and fresh ingredients make it a favorite among locals and tourists, featuring unique items like the Butta Lobster Roll and BBQ Brisket Melt. read more

Amazing Service however the lobster in my opinion is canned or imitation. One claw was huge and too perfect looking and when I bit it, it was chewy and fishy. For $27.00, not worth the price if it's imitation or half and half. Great Crew but I could tell the difference. read more

As far as the drinks, the thai tea was flavorful. The only downside was it took a long time for our food to come out, but it was peak hours so we understand.

Had to share this dessert we ate when we went back to Jolene's Ewa Beach and how friendly the staff here are, super nice, welcoming and helpful! So they have this seasonal dessert called the Maple Pumpkin Toast......sooooo good! They said it's seasonal so not sure how much longer they will have it. The Japanese toasted bread with this pumpkin fluff (not heavy, but light and fluffy), sprinkled with candied pecans and drizzled with maple syrup. It was sooo...good! And even if I was full after eating their lobster roll, I skipped the fries and took it home so I could indulge in this dessert! Hubby had the Smoked Brisket Loco Moco and enjoyed it! Lobster Roll was yummy as usual! read more
