The McDonalds Hawaii is not much of a difference then the ones LA. EXCEPT the breakfast platter with spam , Portuguese sausage and egg with rice. We ordered the breakfast platter after hiking the Lanakai Pillbox. Everything was very tasty, not too salty and the egg is soft and buttery. If you add soy sauce to the rice will make it better with the flavor. I give it a 7/10. Nice cool inside and The staff there is friendly and I was able to pick up my order right away.

Morning drop off at the Daniel K Inouye International Airport. On my way home drop by to buy morning breakfast, The cashier Order here , came forward and when I asked if they still have breakfast, she replied, yah, yah, yah. I told her yah yah you still serve breakfast ?? She had a smile appealing but do you trpodinsr to your customers, yah, yah, yah? Business here in the mornings. Plus where I park my car security told me it's for company's car parking? When I saw car driving off I wouldn't have known until the guard told me so! There's no sign. Plus I don't do curbside pickup! My order for pick up place in a package as usual but when I called the person cleaning French fries she wore a blue uniform. I asked for the package with the handle she flap it in front of me and left ! Do it yourself! She hurriedly went on her work I didn't see! I have a rotator cuff on my right arm that no one would know have pain nor can't lift my arm! We're all Mac fans but this is inappropriate gesture of service imagine of Mac! I'll continue writing later other wise my car might be towed!

Slowest Service ever, you would think being by the airport you would have better trained people...sad how bad service industry has come these days...update 30 later still in line. Come to find out their credit card machine was down. They could've at least come outside and told everybody instead of waiting for a half an hour.

Local Deluxe Platter

I had a long layover, so I walked over here to get one of my favorite breakfasts that's only available on the Hawaiian islands. I used the mobile app to place an order for the Local Deluxe Platter and a large coffee for 99 cents via an app deal. Everyone in the dining area seemed to be having a nice quiet breakfast until a transient showed up with her loud foul language.

Collector's Cup Meal... A few friends asked me if I was going to get the Hello Kitty cup from McDonald's... Well - it's not that easy. There are currently six Collectable plastic cups that are randomly given with purchase of a Collector's Meal. In the morning, the meal consists of a Sausage McMuffin, hash brown, and a small coffee. After breakfast, the Collector's Meal is either a Big Mac or 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, large fries, and a medium drink. My friend, Donna O., encouraged me to get the Collector's Cup Meal and noted that the breakfast meal costs less than the other meals. She also suggested that I ask for a meat substitution ... instead of sausage, replace it with Canadian bacon! ...and for the coffee, ask for sugar-free vanilla flavoring and no cream (because dairy doesn't like me). This was my first visit to this location. I entered from Koapaka Street. There's also an entrance from Paiea Street. It looked like a drive-through only from Koapaka Street side, so I ordered at the speaker, asking for Canadian bacon to replace the sausage. The female voice asked how many sugar and cream I wanted in my coffee. I asked for vanilla flavoring. How many pumps? I guessed, "Three". I paid at the next window, then drove to the last window to collect a large hot coffee, paper bag, and blue package with the Collector's Cup. The hash brown was hot, crunchy, and yummy! The hot coffee was okay. The sandwich only contained cheese and a slice of Canadian bacon in the Muffin. The egg was missing. I told Donna - after I drove off. She advised me to call the supervisor. Okay! The supervisor answered the phone, asked for my receipt number, gave me her name, and said to ask for her tomorrow morning. She will give me the correct sandwich! Thank you! Oh... and I got the Shrek/minions Collector's Cup!

Waited 1 hour, came out empty handed with a very angry child of mine. If I could give zero stars I would. I am a patient person but wow did McDonalds test it. Waited 1 hour for two taro pies, sundae & a drink. I didn't ask, but I'll assume my order was marked as fulfilled when it never was since I didn't see my order # on the screen any more. I was confused when I saw customers received their taro pies when they came AFTER me. The staff could be more attentive to their customers. They werent very organized. I ended up saying f*ck it & got a refund. The manager just said "sorry about that" & went about her ways. First & last time at this location.

My tour of the McDonald's across the island continues as I'm collecting the Happy Meal toys. I purchased another Kerwin Frost 10 piece chicken nuggets Happy Meal. I received Don Bernice at this location. Ok, so now I have Uptown Moe, Darla and Don Bernice. Three down and four to go. This might be it for me for the Kerwin Frost collection. McDonald's just started rolling out their Squishmallows Happy Meals. I started collecting those too, but that collection has 12 toys. Oh buddy! Why would they run both concurrently? I'm getting sick of eating at McDonald's, lol. The workers are nice here. I had to knock off a star as they ran out of the Happy Meal boxes and gave me a brown paper bag instead. One great thing they do at this location is that they give you a number when you order. Then, they'll bring the food to your table. Nice!

Worst location EVER!!! Drive-thru workers need to get some more training on how to work faster because it shouldn't take over 40 minutes to get food at "FAST" food restaurants! PLUS when I got my food finally, my burgers look poorly made and the outside of the wrapper was covered in grease

A rare high rating to welcome back my favorite Mc Teri Burger. Also to give love to MC D's and the mobile app deals for free fries Friday with a $1 purchase. Instead of a $10 meal price, got my mc teri and fries for under $6 but with water, No need soda Haha. If you don't have the Mc D app, you are truly missing out.

Could be better So I come here often when I drop my car for service. It's a quick walk and there is outdoor seating if you want to enjoy the sunshine. Couple of faults I have with this place is: 1. They are short staffed so don't expect table service. I actually picked up a placard but had to get my own food from the counter. 2. Because they are short staffed, it's tough to find a clean table. You're better off busting your table instead of waiting for staff. 3. Unfortunately every place has a homeless issue. While writing this review I have seen two homeless people fill up their water bottles (one guy filled up a thermos) at the soda station. And just plop a seat talking to the air. 4. Actually I even saw a couple of paying customers fill up their personal hydro flask at the same station. Now I don't know how clean this machine is but I hope it gets at least a semi daily cleaning. But looking at the tables I doubt it. Over two stars. Short staff means sacrifice cleaning and wait time increase. On the plus side, it's one of the cheapest price wise on the island. I mean it's not California prices but it's not Waikiki either. Now excuse me, time to check on the car.

They did it to me again, ordered a meal no onion no cheese what did I get, onions and the cheese!!! Lactose intolerant. Oh the PAIN!!! Tried to contact restaurant but no answer. Gave up ‍

Worst location on Oahu. Employees absolutely rude especially management. I ordered a hamburger with no bun and added lettuce for an extra charge and this is what I got. Don't go here. Take the extra time to go to the Moanalua Shopping Center location. Would love to give a zero but 1 star will do.

They are so slow no matter the time of day, under staffed and under trained. Drive thru workers are so rude as well.

Why 2 potato thingys? Cause the chicken is the star, it's all good. Only drawback is the parking situation. But the ppl in the lot seem to know the situation and are very polite. I tend to order on the way there and go through the drive through to avoid parking. This is for the Kalihi shop. Super nice employees, and restrooms available.

The managers on duty like HAZEL and Cristina is one of the most Amazing Services that we always encounter whenever we go there..Their team with grace and empathy, even during the busiest rushes and make their crew/staff high-pressure job manageable..That one thing we love because the ambiance is positive always even if it's so busiest time, they managed it well.. Mark, Cecilia, purisima and the man cook( I forgot the name) is so Wonderful..The warm and greetings with a jolly smile Worthwhile even you can see that they tired already..we go there nearly Closing and it's so busy even in drive thru..They deserve to be recognized by doing their job well done..10/10 Rates and Mahalo Jollibee for always treating Us a Ohana..God Bless You Jollibee Kalihi..

Food quality: consistently tasty local favorites Chinese style local favorites…read moreConvenience: Good Late night grinds hard to find Prices: fair representation for quality and quantity Service: caring staff ; staff knowledgeable about the varied menu, each time I discovered accurate descriptions and recommendations Location: easily accessible in Aiea across from Pearlridge Shopping Mall Restaurant quality: bright Clean tables clean floor, Atmosphere: Welcoming mellow but happy atmosphere considerate diners Mid volume conversation very low key casual local atmosphere Tourists could get an idea of local style foods What did I order? Wagyu local moco all Rice, no mac Minute chicken cake noodle Garlic fish, mini size one scoop rice, one scoop macsalad Everything tasty I wish I had ordered only rice; forgot that I'm not a fan of their Mac salad... 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.

If you're craving tasty Korean fried chicken, Soul Chicken in Kalihi is the spot to hit up. Just a…read moreheads-up it's right smack dab in the middle of the Dillingham rail construction chaos, so getting there might feel like an adventure. And to make things even trickier, there are no left turns on Dillingham, so plan your route accordingly. But once you do make it there, you'll find it tucked inside Bliss Lounge & Bar, which is actually a plus. What pairs better with crispy, fried chicken than an ice-cold beer or cocktail? Plus, the space is cozy and great for hanging out with friends. Since it's inside Bliss lounge and bar, there's no table service, so you'll need to scan a QR code to order or better yet, save yourself the hassle and order ahead here: https://www.clover.com/online-ordering/soul-chicken-honolulu I've always been quoted 20 minutes for orders, but in my experiences, it's always ready sooner. If you're grabbing takeout, ordering ahead online is the way to go so you're not stuck waiting. And this chicken? Crispy, light, not greasy, and not weighed down by batter, exactly how it should be. My go to flavors are Honey Garlic and Yang Nyeom (spicy) and if you're taking it home, I highly recommend getting the sauce on the side to avoid any soggy disappointments. My only complaint are that some of these chickens look like they barely made it past chickhood because a few of the pieces are really small. I'm talking bite sized in a way that makes you wonder if they ran out of full-grown birds. But hey, what they lack in size, they definitely make up for in flavor. If you can navigate the construction mess (and the no-left-turn nightmare on Dillingham), Soul Chicken is a solid spot for some seriously good Korean fried chicken just maybe don't expect every wing to be a heavyweight or order more half dozens.
