4 stars for Mililani Restaurant! The food was cooked really well, but everything needed salt, so the flavors never got to shine the way they could have. Which is honestly a bummer because if they had seasoned Bill's Fish & Chips... dude... it would've easily been the best we've ever had! The other day, my family stopped by Mililani Restaurant after my son recommend the fish & chips. Since I'm a sucker for variety - and I hadn't eaten here in about 20 years - I also ordered the Mini Fried Saimin and Mini Korean Chicken. I love seeing each restaurant's take on these local favorites. Bill's Fish & Chips: WOW. The full order is HUGE! You get three giant pieces of cod over a mountain of shoestring fries. The fish was cooked beautifully - super crispy on the outside while staying moist and flaky inside. But oh Lord... it needed salt! The fries had a great crisp too, although they did have that darker, old-oil flavor that was a little hard to ignore. Since I'm a foodie who likes to come prepared, I happened to have lemon wedges with me lol!... and man, did that take the fish to another level. Hey, don't judge! (I'm pretty sure my family was embarrassed... but ask me if I care. Hahaha! Jk... kinda.) We all agreed that if they had simply salted the fish right out of the fryer, this would've easily been a 5 star dish. Mini Fried Saimin: Can we talk about that portion size for a mini?! Super generous! Unfortunately, this one also needed more seasoning, and the oil flavor came thru more than the other ingredients. I know it's fried, so some oil flavor is expected, but it kinda overpowered everything else. A little more shoyu would've gone a long way. Since fried saimin is usually one of my favorite things to order (local girl at heart!), I'd give this one about 3 stars. Mini Korean Chicken: The sauce was delicious and reminded me of Sugoi's Garlic Chicken. The only downside was that the chicken itself wasn't hot. It tasted like it may have been cooked earlier and then portioned out for my plate. The service was friendly, helpful with recommendations, and they packed everything securely. Our order was accurate, and the prices felt fair for the amount of food you get. They definitely have a great variety for a neighborhood plate lunch spot. Would we make the drive all the way from Ewa Beach just for this? Probably not. But if we're already in the area, we'd absolutely stop by again. One last heads up... if you're planning to dine in, be prepared to leave smelling like the fryer. The ventilation could definitely use some help.. we all went straight to the shower when we got home! read more

What happened? We've been coming here for over 20+ years and what we ordered was subpar. What a disappointment! What I thought were ordered was fried noodles but ordered fried saimin, basically the same thing but no egg and no green onions. Just cold dry noodles with ham and shredded cheese???? What is that? Then came the char siu fried rice... boring! Thank God the fried fish was decent. But all three items tasted exactly the same. How is that possible? Oh because they fry their food in the same oil. We used to love coming here, but year after year they keep taking off items from their menu and now we are left with the same tasting food. I just hope their cold ginger chicken is still good. read more

We went here because we were Ono for their fried noodles. We bought their guri guri and it was...ice cake. My husband liked the fried noodles and my boy got fried udon and chicken katsu. He liked the udon over the fried noodles and said the katsu was so crunchy and said it tasted different than other places read more

After all these years about hearing how good Mililani Restaurant was, we decided to drive from Waipahu to come here. I remember coming her back in the early to mid 1990s once but never again as I never lived on that side of the island. I never knew the parking lot stalls were so close to each other with limited space to maneuver...likely they had restriped to make more stalls but at the expense of maneuvering (especially if you have a mid size truck/vehicle or larger). This restaurant is located nearby The Shack and AutoZone stores, so this is your landmark as to where they are located. Inside as i entered, i noticed how clean it looked but was in shock at the wide menu board above and back of the cashier. It was so much to see, that even the person in front of us was saying we could go ahead of him as he was still undecided. We laughed when we told him we are too, don't worry! For several moments, we three (ha ha) were standing within inches of each other just pondering what to purchase for today! We came here after having driven all the way to try Ted's Bakery in Haleiwa for the first time arriving there about 10:20am only to see the bakery dark inside. A vehicle accident had damaged several electrical poles causing no electricity in that area, so we aborted and had to seek an alternative. We both said we 'had to' try Mililani Restaurant, as we have heard over the years about its famous fried noodles! Decided on the Combo Trio (2) @$16.49 each plus the Fried Noodles @ $12.99 plates. Used my card, and saw no additional surcharge, even though the cashier asks before receiving payment if it will be by cash or card. Once I hear this line, usually it is because there would be a surcharge assessed, but i did not see any signage that would be the case anyway. So just a false alarm on my part. About 7-8 minutes later, our three plates were already and placed into a box for easy handling. I was caught off guard as the order was quickly done and ready, sparking my thoughts that some were pre-cooked and would be done upon ordering those items. Got home and see they use the really easily compostable plate lunch boxes which have its good and bad points... luckily, no soak through when reaching our place to eat (even 5 hours later as I write this review). Let's start with the highly regarded, Fried Saimin... to me, it is a disappointment right off the bat! Fried saimin noodles, sliced egg omelets and 'mysterious' meat... Yes, it is NEITHER luncheon meat or SPAM, as the sliced pieces have the bite/texture of ham but there is NO taste.. none, nada... i ate several pieces by itself to know what it tasted like... Also no taste of dashi mixed into the noodles--- cannot even compete I feel against others with better tasting fried noodles. What's the hype about their fried noodles anyway after having tasting them? Their version of Teri-Beef? the best thing i must say is that the meats were soft and not chewy... this is no local teriyaki style flavor with shoyu, ginger, garlic and sugar... *definitely NOT*. It is rib eye with sauce poured on top of it (you know, like the bottled Yoshida's Teriyaki Sauce?). More mainland in flavor/interpretation versus the tasty local style teri-beef flavors. It is disappointing, but not to the extreme extent of the Fried Saimin Noodles! Mochiko chicken (pan fried, not deep fried) with sauce on top (not local style, but i saw this back in California at an L&L there near Santa Clara). It almost reached being slightly dry but was removed in time. As for the Fish tempura ... this one stood head and shoulders way above the three in texture and flavor... I like it so much that I would buy their Bill's Fish and Chips as my next plate lunch if I ever go back. It comes with a small like 3/4-ounce container for their tartar sauce... which is flavorful but some may want more tartar sauce than what is provided on that one large piece of fish. The macaroni salad, with its grated carrots and nothing else.. this too was a disappointment as there was no flavor I could taste, confirmed by my friend who ate the same lunch. It just tastes like Best Foods mayo with boiled macaroni and nothing else... it should have some diced or finely chopped onions or the onion sauce mixed in to add depth... Guess as they don't want to provide much, it comes in a 1.5-to-2-ounce plastic container with cap (that usually dressings for salads would be placed). Bland is the word i must say.... As were there about 11:20am today, Thursday, the final thing i want to add is that the rice had parts that were slightly wet/sticky and not fully cooked...just be aware... maybe they added too much water into the rice cooker, or turned off the rice cooker before it was completely finished and resting to fully cook. A overall 2.5 star review, but as there are no 1/2 stars, i will be nice and give it a 3 star rating. I would not go out of my way to eat here... but perhaps 'just for' the high rated fish tempura! read more

Food is good . The service is really good here. The ambiance they have a lot of sitting inside. They have a certain area for pick up to go home and eat . They were so friendly the last time I went there. read more

Actual rating is 4 1/2 stars. We ordered two plates - Beef Tomato & Lemon Chicken. Both had a lot of food, so that's a plus. The Beef Tomato plate is a definite 10/10 & a highly recommend. It's a little on the sweet side w/bell peppers & tomato sauce style rather than teriyaki. You'll want to soak up the rice with their sauce; it's that good. As for the Lemon Chicken, I'd rate it a 8/10; would have been a 9 if they would have soaked the chicken with more lemon sauce. It was only half soaked. Why would they do that? The lemon sauce makes the Lemon Chicken. Anyways good food, they give a lot as the plate is heavy & lots of parking near Foodland in Mililani. read more

Mililani Restaurant - Beef Tomato plate - they gave so much that I ate half & saved the other half . - Hawaiian Near Me - Mililani, Hawaii

Service is always good. Restaurant is always nice and clean. Food is always tasty. But it just wasnt the same experience as before. Few issues today, unfortunately: One issue today was with online ordering. It's easy and convenient, but after you select something, it takes you back to the top of the long menu, so scrolling takes a long time. If you are comparing items or dont know what you want, online ordering takes a really long time because of this issue. Another issue today was that I ordered extra tartar sauce with my fish & chips but I received no tartar sauce at all! Not even the free one (or does it come with 2 free, I cant recall) so now I have to eat dry fish because I ordered it with the fried saimin, which is dry too. (I ordered take out so cant just ask for it) $20.24 but on the plus side, the fish does have salt seasoning and I ordered a plate that came with Mac salad so the fish is good with the Mac salad. First time trying the tofu eggplant plate. Good flavoe but I think portion could be just a little larger for $15.49. In my pic it looks big, but in person it's not much. Mac salad is yum. Also first time ordering shoyu chicken $17.49. Expected local style shoyu chicken so was rather disappointed. Ordered the side order because we didnt need the rice. Description said half chicken. Didn't think much of that, but now understand why (online picture wasnt super clear but now that i look at it in hindsight, i understand) - it's a half roast chicken (kind of dry like the chinese kind) with a sweet glaze/gravy on top (definitely not enough). Not the shoyu chicken thighs soaking in gravy that you can eat with rice. Shucks but the flavor is tasty. Also wish you can order side of meat, like you can when you order fried saimin plates -- you can add teri beef for $4. Wish they had that option when you order other plates. Kind of like making your own combo. Because I ordered the fish & chips with fried saimin instead of fries, it would've been nice to have an option to add meat to it. Only garnish was cabbage (doesnt even have ham). read more

Been a long time since our last so we stopped in to reacquaint ourselves with one of the long time eateries in Mililani and we were not disappointed that we did. Ordering at the counter was quick and the cashier answered all of our questions and even made our choices better with his recommendations. I settled for the mini hamburger steak that came with one wagyu beef patty, brown gravy with grilled onions, enough onions to assure you that they were indeed there, 1 plenty enough white rice and Mac salad with slivers of carrots. Mrs had their mini homemade fried noodles with enough to doggie bag the left overs. The meals were very tasty and well plated. For dessert we tried their multi layered jello which is still just jello multilayered, nothing special here. I wanted their goodie-goodie but they ran out. :( Restaurant is clean, bright and the seating is comfortable and not too close to each other making dining a pleasure. Very pleasant atmosphere overall. We will definitely comeback again soon. read more

It's been years since I've been here, and it never disappoints. I always order the Hawaiian chop steak--it comes straight off the stove, piping hot, and is incredibly tasty and satisfying. The portion is generous enough to easily serve three people. Their fried noodles, which they're most famous for, are a must-order. My son tried one of their newer items, the Wagyu burger, and really enjoyed it. Drinks are refillable, and the staff are super friendly. They even brought our food directly to the table, which made the experience even better. Definitely worth coming back again. read more

I've lived in Mililani for over 20 years and I really tried to love this place but I have consistently been disappointed. I'm honestly surprised this is the first time I've written a review because we have came here several times over the years to try different items. Our recent visit was sparked by the monthly newsletter. I love beef stew and previously tried the beef stew and didn't like it. In last months news letter it claimed to have made improvements so I decided to give it another try... still not a fan. The meat is much better than before. It used to be very tough and chewy. Now it is much more fatty and tender. The carrots and potatoes are way to big and unevenly cooked. Some are soft and some are still crunchy. The Mac salad tastes like straight mayo imo. The newsletter also claimed that they would be serving certain "saucy" items in plastic containers instead of the flimsy biodegradable ones, beef stew was on of those items. As you can see I got the flimsy container NOT the plastic container as the newsletter claimed. I also wanted to try their new drinks since they were on special for $3 this month as stated in this month's newsletter. When my husband ordered the drinks the staff had no clue about the monthly newsletter promo. After my husband made them aware they looked it up and adjusted the price. We were asked what type of milk we wanted for each drink (oat, almond, or whole). We chose oat and then we're immediately told they only had whole, lol. Okay whole milk it is. I attached pictures of what the newsletter showed the drinks to look like and what I got. I would not order either drink again. I had ordered the shoyu chicken a while back and loved it but after ordering it again more recently it wasnt the same and lacked flavor. They're famous for their fried noodles but personally I don't care for them. I will continue to read the newsletter and am still hopeful that I will find something I love so I can continue to support. read more

Located at the Mililani Shopping center on the right side of Kam Highway going toward Wahiawa, decided to try this place since we were in the area, and could take out. I should have ordered their noodles, but I didn't see the sign that you can replace rice with fried noodles for $2.50 until after I ordered. Trio Combo - 4 stars - for $16.49, the bento has mochiko chicken, teriyaki beef and fried fish. I ordered this bento instead of the Bento box because, as local as I am, I hardly eat spam, only because I'm trying to avoid processed/canned food for my health. All tasted great, but still greasy, and the teri sauce was ok, but I like it sweet. Mini Teri Salmon - 4 stars - 2 pieces of salmon with teri sauce. Salmon was fried, and a little dry, but a healthier choice to eat. Side order Eggplant tempura - 5 stars - for $7.99, I liked this because the batter was deliciously crispy and big pieces of eggplant. However, I did not like the teri sauce mixed with sweet chili sauce as the tempura sauce. It had a bite to it and just didn't match the tempura eggplant. I had to eat it plain, and it was ok without the sauce, but would have been better if the sauce had just been the usual tempura sauce I was going to order the japanese cheesecake, but it was $13 for just a small loaf. Service was great like any take out plate lunch place, lots of parking since it is in the Mililani SC. I saw that you can also order online with the QR code or before you arrive since it takes a while for them to make it. read more

This place used to be the go to. The Chicken crispy noodle and chicken fried rice and Portuguese fried rice really hit da spot. Not anymore, the fried rice is hard (like broke da teet) and is lacking of flavor, doesn't clump together like it used to - couldn't even serve it with a rice paddle. The chicken in the fried rice was dark grey and had an off flavor, like might be rancid kine. The Korean chicken was aiiiight but was suuuuper salty. The Mac salad tasted a little off as well. 2 stars for pricing and getting the food out fast, a real shame though, was really craving some OG Mililani Restaurant. read more

I ordered catering from here for my son's party. The trays ordered were the mini lumpia, fried saimin, pork katsu, and beef broccoli. Online ordering for my catering was easy and the food was ready for the pick up time I choose. Everyone enjoyed the food. The favorites were the pork katsu and beef broccoli. Due to the travel time, the lumpia ended up not crispy. No biggie though since people ate it. The best part was ordering more than enough food to make take home plates for everyone. read more

Best noodles ever... I dream of the fried saimin been eating here since I was a kid and it never misses!

I've been to this restaurant before and I never really chose anything that I really enjoyed, until today. We ordered the fish tempura and the orange chicken because I saw their IG post. The uncle on there was right!!! Orange chicken for the win! I upgraded to fried saimin! Do it! It's worth it! I had plenty leftovers after sharing! Fish was good too! They were really busy on Saturday. Call in your order or be prepared to wait for 30 mins. It's worth it and there are places you could walk to and stall time. The workers are friendly even with the crowd. Keep the IG post coming! I listen to the kupuna! They know what's up when they keep going back for the same dishes over many years! read more

We walked in and placed an order for pick up around 245 on a Sunday, and it was pretty busy! The menu was big and overwhelming, but they have a QR code for you to sit and order, and they also have flyers that you can look at when you walk in. The staff were very friendly and patient despite the growing line and long menu to pick from. Our order was out pretty quickly, and then we drove home to eat. I got the fried saimin, and it was the best thing I've eaten so far on my vacation. The noodles were amazing, made in-house fresh, and I added grilled salmon on top. That salmon was so juicy, tender, and had the best flavor! I also tried my Auntie's fried rice and it was delicious! The portion sizes are worth the price. This is definitely a must try if you're in the area. read more

First Time there smoke meat plate lunch it is really delicious. Customer service excellent. Place is Clean.

Dunno how this place stays in business. Food was always pretty mediocre. Hamburger is full of filler, where's the beef? Their chicken katsu breading isn't even how the breading is supposed to be. Not crunchy at all and just soggy. The worst part of is their prices are high now and their food just isn't worth the price. Lots of people like their noodles but it has no taste and it's hard to swallow. They don't even have the prices on their menu board. So, you don't even know how much it is until they ring you up. Kinda shady. I'm for real surprised that people still go there to eat. read more

I've eaten at Millilani Restaurant since early 90's. Back when we used to live in Wahiawa and have always left there very satisfied. Don't know if they have new owners or a new Generation taking over the business. But we left very disappointed. So my Wife ordered the fried Noodles which was basically Noodles with some kind of very cheap processed meat Dwelling we could not even tell what it was and that was was cold by the way. Topped with some cold mystery cheese of some what... super weird and well over priced. And what is sad they call it their number one seller.. Im a cook and am very sad for their standards.. it's almost hilarious. Then... another over priced plate, I ordered the Teri ribeye plate... was okay... Rice was perfect Mac Salad was good, very basic but good... Teri Ribeye was good nothing spectacular especially for the pice but what made me upset was that my meat was cold like it was sitting on the counter in the kitchen, in the a/c served from there.... Very sad this Restaurant.. Wouldn't recommend this place anymore... Funny too, was wondering why came out so fast... everything pre-cooked which already tells me they care little about customer satisfaction... However what was good is that instead of throwing food in the trash.... I brought it home and when Malaga it with love.. Added my Smoke Meat, hillside farm sausage round onion fishcake and spam with a Hawaiian touch of flavor.... Boy was my wife satisfied with the quality of their noodles..... Hahaha... read more
