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

"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

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

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!

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

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.

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.

#H Vienna Sausage & Eggs w/Fried Rice
Robert K.

The Food Is Down-Right Comfort! I got 2 breakfast plates. #G Corn Beef Hash & #H the Vienna Sausage. Both over easy eggs and both with Fried Rice. The fried rice had delicious cuts of Lop Cheong sausage & Char Sui Pork... It's a walk-up window place. No dine-in. I'd come back to this place again for some hardy breakfast and take it to the end of lagoon drive and watch the planes go by. Our order took about 10 minutes to prepare. Call ahead if you don't wanna wait.

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.

Garlic Chicken (all rice)
Paul C.

I don't aggressively cross off my bookmarks but I've kept K&K Kitchen (KK) in the back burner for YEARS. KK took over the spot of the popular, original location of Mitsuken Bento and Catering that moved in 2013. I've always been a fan of garlic chicken and usually get my fix from Mitsuken and Sugoi. Step in chicken fanatic Fran C. who would post and boast about KK's garlic chicken plate. With such challenging parking, I've waited over 10 years to finally try KK back in April 2024. I live about a 5min drive from KK and have passed here hundreds of times and would survey the parking, but found myself giving up. I was running errands and feeling pretty down as I had another tax year of writing checks to Uncle Sam. It was past 130pm and still didn't eat lunch yet and found myself on N School Street. As I approached, I noticed KK's door still open and only one car in the adjacent parking. I pulled in and finally, was going to see what Fran has been raving over. I walked to the counter and heard Cantonese being spoken between the counter staff and the kitchen crew. I didn't need to study the menu as I just came to try the garlic chicken. I ordered a regular plate with all rice and after paying, I stood on the side waiting for my food with free entertainment of a few feral chickens nearby and witnessed an elderly Asian woman struggle with parallel parking of multiple attempts while her elderly husband (?) trying to guide her. When the girl blurted "garlic chicken all rice", I made my way back to the counter to get my food where I asked for a pair of chopsticks instead of a fork. I hopped back into my car and headed back home. THE VERDICT: I was impressed on the garlic chicken plate. As I removed the cover, the chicken was piping hot, the way I enjoy my food. Strategically took a bite trying not to burn my mouth and the chicken was super moist, juicy and packed with flavor. I noticed some sauce that accumulated on the bottom so I dipped the chicken and I was in heaven. The rice was your standard plate lunch rice that paired well with the flavorful chicken. With comparison to their competitors, KK's garlic chicken is superior because it wasn't overcooked nor did the chicken have excess chicken skin. You were served good quality chicken meat. Service was average as the staff just got the job done. She was engaged in conversing with the kitchen staff in Chinese. I noticed that KK is much more sanitary and brighter than the dingy and somewhat questionable Mitsuken back in the olden days. Overall, an impressive first experience at Kk where I'd be game for a return visit. With parking the major issue, I'd probably go back in the afternoon just before they close with hopes of less foot traffic and available parking. NOTE: I ate less than half of the plate and gave the leftovers to favorite nephew by default who devoured it. He asked where the food was from as he thoroughly enjoyed it.

6. Garlic Chicken with 2 Eggs, Fried Rice & 2 Bacons
Sophie M.

Stopped by K&K on a Friday morning. Service was good and the food came out quick. Very delicious! $12.50 garlic chicken plate was a healthy serving that could easily feed two people. I will definitely be coming back!

Menu on door as of June 2024
Harrison H.

Cashier was nice, and fast when it came to payment and our phone order. Parking is roughly small parking lot in the side fits 2/3 calls. Food plate was huge so enough for two meals.

Combo G I think that's the whole can of corn beef. Fried rice and sunny side up.

As part of our recent vacation to Hawai'i, we stopped by Helena's Hawaiian Food to get a taste of…read moretraditional, authentic Hawaiian cuisine. Parking was scarce, but we managed to find a spot nearby in the neighborhood. It was a Saturday around lunchtime, and we were able to be seated immediately. We didn't really know what we were doing with the menu, so our server ordered whatever she thought we would like. She did a great job. We got the Pipikaula short ribs, kalua pig, lomi lomi salmon, poi, mac salad, and fried butterfish collar.  Everything was so good! My favorite two items were the short ribs and the butterfish collar. The short ribs were so meaty with a nice firm texture and had a yummy sweet marinade. The fried butterfish collar was crispy and dripping with buttery goodness.  Trying poi for the first time was such an interesting experience as well. I had always wondered what it tasted like. I had always thought it was going to be like a sweet taro paste dessert, but it's actually more like a starch and serves the same role as rice! Its neutral flavor allows you to pair it with your proteins. It adds a bit of texture and helps you feel full. I was really grateful for finally getting to try it and loved learning something new! I had a great time at Helena's. The food was delicious, and I got to learn more about traditional Hawaiian cuisine. I totally recommend it. Great vibes.

Best place for authentic Hawaiian food for sure. Great service, even if they get tired of repeating…read morethemselves and could write it out, I really appreciate them explaining to newcomers every time what to eat and how to eat it to get that authentic experience. We went with what's recommended for first timers - laulau pork, you eat the leaves everything and it's filling and delicious - short ribs, some might say it's overcooked but I think it's just a different way of cooking and eating it, the pieces were thick and high quality, comes with 4 - Loki salmon, it's cured and this reminds me of ceviche or pico de gallo and salmon, it was flavorful, juicy and refreshing - comes with onions and salt to add to the complexity of the flavors - we ate it with poi, which they use as the starch to replace the rice. It's made of taro, I say give it a try for that unique and authentic experience - coconut jelly was yummy They accept cash and card Limited parking in the front, come in right before 5:30 on a weekday to beat the crowd Small family business vibes The experience lives up to the hype!

If you're visiting Hawaii with a big group, 100% recommend taking them here…read more We initially were a party of 16, and showed up without a reservation at 6pm on a Saturday. The staff was super nice about it and was able to accommodate us, with only a small request that we be out by 8pm since there was another big party with a reservation coming in. Absolutely reasonable. They sat us right away at three large tables, which gave us plenty of space for food and didn't force us to sit super close together. Menus, waters, plates, napkins, and forks were all brought out immediately, and our waiter was quick to take our order. We started with the prix fixe menu for 8-10 guests and were going to add other items à la carte, but a handful of our group accidentally went to the other Side Street location (make sure your group is all on the same page), so what we ordered ended up being more than enough. We left stuffed and with 5 boxes of food still. Edamame was nice and steamy, and large enough to easily pop the beans out with your mouth. Wish there was a bit more salt though. The farmer's salad had everything going on from citrusy to salty to crispy. Avocado had a little bit of oxidation but the capers, dressing and potato curls provided plenty of reasons to overlook it. The fried rice came in a hefty portion, with sizable pieces of bacon and sausage. The chicken I didn't realize was boneless based on the shape of the deep fry, but it was nice to freely bite into it without worrying about hitting anything with my teeth. Probably a bit too much on fried bits but still good. Pork chops had a better meat to crisp ratio in my opinion, as well as juiciness. They even came with ketchup on the side, which I love as a pairing but don't see much of at restaurants. My favorite meat item was definitely the sizzling boneless kalbi. The presentation on the sizzling plate with a side of kimchi was spectacular, and the meat was full of flavor. We also ordered yakisoba, which wasn't part of the prix fixe. Tasted good but nothing past standard expectations. We let the waiter know we had a 30th birthday at the table, and they brought a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream with a candle, and did a decent job getting the whole room to participate in the singing. It could also be the type of crowd this place attracts, since it seemed that everyone was so friendly and approachable. Thanks to the quick and consistent service, we were out in a little over an hour with no complaints.

The guava bar was delicious and flavorful and just crumbles in your mouth! Definitely one of the better guava bars I've tried. Love how crumbly it is. The salmon belly was delicious OMFG. It looks so simple and straightforward but that sht is so flavorful. It is crispy and yet soft on the inside. The salmon belly is cut into bite-sized pieces so I didn't have to worry about using a knife to cut it. I usually try salmon belly where it is usually seasoned lightly to bring out the natural flavor of the salmon, but Guava Smoked's salmon belly is just grilled in a way that makes the salmon sweet/crispy and still get traces of the salmon taste as well. It's definitely not your traditional Japanese-style way of cooking salmon belly but really just their own. I'd go back and get this again. Another thing too. I'd get this with beer. This would hit very hard with alcohol but because I don't drink I need a kombucha. The grilled salmon belly would go perfect with it. Cheers!

There is a dedicated parking lot behind the restaurant that is shared with the other businesses in the same building. When I walked into the restaurant at about 1pm on a Wednesday, I was surprised to find it almost empty. It's a pretty large space, so the lack of patrons was rather glaring. There was one person sitting at the counter facing the kitchen and one employee working. This was my very first visit to Guava Smoked so I asked the person at the counter what he recommends. He said the two most popular meats are the kalbi and the spicy pork. "Perfect!" I thought, because those were the two options I was eyeing. Unfortunately, they were out of kalbi that day. Bummer... Nothing else on the menu caught my eye, so I ordered a smoked spicy pork plate to go. The spicy pork was good. Did it blow my mind? I wouldn't say it did. But it was satisfying enough. Honestly, I really wish they had kalbi available when I went. Hopefully next time I stop in they will.

The owner was very friendly and took the time to recommend dishes for us, including the laulau and lechon kawali. We also ordered the BBQ short ribs. Overall, it was a good experience trying Hawaiian food, but it's just not really our type of cuisine. The laulau was quite dry, and the preparation felt more like meat that had been boiled or cooked in liquid, which isn't something I usually enjoy. The lechon kawali had a crispy pork belly texture, topped with something similar to a salsa, but it didn't suit our taste either. Unfortunately, the cabbage served with it also had some black spots, which was off-putting. The BBQ short ribs were the highlight of the meal and the dish we enjoyed the most.
