E. Luncheon Meat
Karlo G.

Great spot for a grab and go meal. A friend had recommended this place for breakfast and lunch plate and I decided to give it a try. K & K Kitchen is a take out restaurant serving quick and affordable comfort food. Their menu has sandwiches, burgers, side dishes, plate lunch, and even specials. I ordered their luncheon meat rice plate with 2 eggs over easy. Serving portions were generous especially for the price. The luncheon meat had a nice crisp around the edges and absolutely filling. Service is fast and I received my order within minutes. Lunch time is definitely their busiest time. Getting to this takeout spot can a little tricky, however worth the trek. Street parking is limited and getting finding a spot may require a couple of circles around the block.

Corned Beef Hash Breakfast Plate. Eggs over easy. Cantonese style Fried Rice.

"Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine." - Elvis Back on the rock for work and woke up 1st of November jonesing for local-style breakfast (iykyk). K & K Kitchen on North School St. in the heart of Kalihi popped on my search at 7:00am. TBH I'm not sure if I been here before, well at least at K & K, because I've definitely been in this Google Map ping: been to Mexico Restaurant and been to Helena's. Oh, I even purchased a used car from the old Pake man in the lime green house.. with roosters all ovah from Kuya's yellow house next door. Déjà vu all over again lol. Parking easy peasy at 7am, but I can imagine all da Hammajang parking after roosters crow. All good just look for the bright blue building! 7am ain't early in Kalihi as I'm third in line just beating out the Construction Bruddahs in lifted To-yoda. I was about to order when auntie at the counter picked up the phone before me and of course it was an order of twelve tutu breakfast plates. Luckily she yelled my order to cook before submitting phone orders or I'd still be waiting lol. So, no need ack. Anyways, I ordered Eggs over easy, corned beef hash, upgraded fried rice. Breakfast plates average in the $10-$12 range, however with my upgrade of fried rice it was north of $13. All orders are made to order, so guarans you'll be waiting on the side. After a few minutes in the Kalihi morning sun my order is ready. Heavy! K & K is take-out, so after a short drive I enjoyed the massive corned beef hash, crisp on the edges and succulent inside. The fried rice was Cantonese style, so yesterday's Char Siu for flavor and tasty. Worth the $2 upgrade! In the end, K & K Kitchen in Kalihi was definitely a good choice for a hearty local-style breakfast you won't find at the mall. Don't expect fancy or the word "culinary" here... but if craving a simple breakfast that's delicious and will feed you til tomorrow this is the spot for you! Lastly, make sure to season your plates before leaving! K-bye! Pls follow my IG adventures: @eric_travel_guru

Did you grow up with the Manapua man that drives the grey truck? Did you know they have a restaurant and this is it! They're located in Kalihi. You can find them across where they park their trucks. Parking is limited, but the times I've gone, I have gotten lucky and have parked right in front. I'm not quite sure how many cooks are there, but it sounds a like maybe one or two. The girl who takes your order is nice and food comes out in about 10-15 minutes after ordering. We ordered the corned beef hash and it was great! We also ordered the orange chicken and wow, those were some big chickens with some great flavor! We also ordered the loco moco and it was one of the best loco mocos we've had. My son got a cheeseburger and guess what it came in! The yellow wrapper! The old school wrapper! IYKYK! We will be coming back as regulars to try more things!

Corned beef and eggs over fried rice
Gabriel P.

If you're a rice eater the Deluxe Breakfast is for you. Bottom of the takeout tray Is loaded with white rice. It's topped with two eggs, two slices of spam, two thick slices of Portuguese Sausage and two slices of bacon. I ordered my eggs scrambled. The eggs were over done. You place your order at the takeout window fronting the building. Service was ok. The building itself is old and parking is a hassle. It was a good thing that my wife was with me. She stood in line as I waited in the car. Overall good price point. Enjoy

Omg so good we got the mini breakfast and upgraded the rice to fried rice. Best fried rice everrrrrr like butter garlic taste!! Quick service good pricing, no seating.

P8. Garlic Chicken Lunch
Kainani K.

This is a busy place and parking is a little tough. However, the plates are packed and definitely worth waiting for. My husband wanted to try the garlic chicken and the plate was heavy! The chicken pieces were boneless and huge! They also didn't skimp on the rice which is a good thing. I didn't want rice but my plate was still really big! I had two pieces of hamburger steak, scrambled eggs and gravy. The portion was definitely enough to fill me up, and I had extra for later. I'll definitely be back to try the other plate lunches when I'm in the area.

Fried pork hash
Jason M.

K&K kitchen is on school street in the old Mitsu-Ken spot, this guys plates are massive and worth the price! We got so much food for $70! Tried the garlic chicken plate with fried rice, steamed pork hash and fried! And the fried chicken with fried rice because they ran out of noodles by 11am! anyways good food and super affordable prices and the service is fast and friendly. And you can order ahead on the website so by the time you get there it's ready to go!

Chicken katsu Galbi
Rose B.

Everything was very good! We ate outside. The chicken katsu was fresh and crispy. Very happy we went here.

Sandy N.

Ended up at this place by accident but it was a great eat and affordable. I got the deluxe C combo and it's more than enough for one person could even share with two! I got fried rice instead of regular white rice. The fried rice has sausages in it so extra meat also almost like a garlic fried rice taste too. I would come back next time for a quick breakfast.

Early birdies gets the eats... No it's not a special but a special place with awesome prices and cooked to order breakfast. K & K has been on my radar with Nadine C, Paul C and Fran C and though it has one of the best early morning hours to grab your breakfast it is on busy N School Street with little to no parking. Since it was Saturday I tried to get there as early as possible though there's no traffic there's always someone there waiting for their order so I just parked next door for quick dash. Looking over their breakfast plates ranges $7.50 to $9.00 but it was the mini that I was interested in at $4.25 it wasn't even a question, simple and easy regular white rice, Portuguese sausage and scrambled...I'm very basic when it comes to breakfast but what a deal! Service is friendly and very fast as this tiny nook serves sit all including other savory items like chicken and pork chops but don't let the vibe here deter you as it's a great deal to fill you up with costing extra. Thank you!

Menu on food truck
Lily F.

I heard from a state employee that food truck comes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tiime is 11:00 am. Location is in front of state parking structure across from Hawaii Educational Federal Credit Union (233 S Vineyard St). Truck has name of food truck. Menu is a big selection. Employees could be son and mom who speak Cantonese. My coworkers and I got there 5 minutes before 11:00 am. There were other people who work at state building came in line. Everyone was happy that there was another business to buy food from. Our order was pasteles stew, garlic chicken, and Lau lau. Pasteles stew regular plate has 1 scoop Mac salad and 2 scoops rice but mini had 1 scoop rice. Pasteles stew and Mac salad good. I look forward to trying them again next week.

After getting my blood drawn this morning my husband said saw this place on yelp and if you like go we try um. So we went for take out breakfast. I had the corn beef hash breakfast and my husband had their deluxe breakfast. Came home and my eggs wasnt over easy it was over hard. The corn beef hash was lacking something my husband said salt taste. I agree. I switch it up to fried rice instead of reg rice and it was Chinese style fried rice. The corn beef hash was big covers almost the whole plate. Lol. My husband deluxe breakfast was 2 bacon, 2 spam, 2 Portuguese sausage with scrambled egg. He said was good. Maybe I've should have ordered that or stick to my mini breakfast. They do make it fresh so when you place the order you have to wait. The breakfast is cheap in prices and they give alot. They located in the place where the old mitsu Ken okazu was located on school Street. Support them if you want a big breakfast.

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.

I use to work at the district office and we were housed at Hawaii School for Deaf & Blind, so close by to Rainbow, when I visit once a month, it was a treat to myself, I sure miss those Rainbow Drive-In days with my daughter and for my lunch break! Lets talk about the breakfast fried rice, lately I've been stopping here every weekend to pick up a plate of fried rice special ( available til sold out) & they do sell out, plate is only $9.95. This is the best fried rice ever, my opinion and always enough for me and hubby! The fried rice comes Portuguese sausage, veggies, and flavored nicely with choice of 2 eggs covers the rice completely. I always get soft scrambled. I love the finishing touches of the green onions. yums! The rice is perfect hits every time & rice is not watery which I love. Chef's kiss to the staff who made this fried rice.

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.

I called to make reservations after work at 5:30 PM and the host was great, she let me know that parking is free for 2-hours at the Bank of Hawaii building with validation, and that they are still working on their liquor license so its BYOB with a $10 corkage fee per person drinking in the party. From the street front, its kind of hard to tell where the restaurant is. I didn't notice the sign until standing literally right in front of it. (on Beachwalk, makai of Hard Rock) When you enter, theres a sign to meet the host upstairs. We asked to sit on the patio because it was such a nice evening. At the time, there were lots of available table. But once the sun went down it became pretty lively in the main dining room. Pila was our sever, he was fantastic! Give him a raise! Between the 4 of us, we ordered 2 mains, the OG fried rice that you can never go without, and a salad because we are so well balanced. OMG SO MUCH FOOD! We did end up needing take out boxes for the rice and chicken. Honestly, I probably could have finished it off if i wasn't drinking, because it was DELCIOUS AF *drool*. Pro tip: ask for extra garlic sauce to go with the chicken. Ugh, I'm craving more kalbi as I write this review. 10/10 recommend our exact order, server and seating.

I got the tuna mayo onigiri and wished they had packed in a little more tuna filling, but it was still tasty. I also tried the cucumber spam musubi, which was really good too. We came as a group of seven and everyone ordered something different, and everyone loved every bite. My tip: get at least two musubis per person. A few people in our group got four each and had zero regrets. One thing to know ahead of time is parking. It is street parking only and pretty limited, so plan for that if you are driving. Overall such an easy, yummy stop and a great local experience in Waikiki.
