    Food and portions are good, but the prices are drastically higher than other lunch plate spots. It was $22 per plate - they charge an additional $4 for ahi. The firecracker chicken and guava smoked pork were really good. I've had better Mac salad. The poke is good, but not worth the extra $4 charge. Food also took 40 min - 1 hour to be finished. They call you when it's ready. There was a line out be door on a Friday lunch. I would suggest calling ahead and placing an order over the phone. There is also a 3% charge for credit cards so bring cash. There's also zero seating - take out only.

    This place is popular af so be prepared to wait because there is always a long line! Also When coming here do not park across the street you have to park inside of that parking lot or you will get TOWED, I witnessed two cars being towed when I visited this place and they were customers for queens cafe ! Parking is free for 2 hrs so you don't need to pay unless you stay pass 2 hrs! Other than that the Poke was fresh! The firecracker chicken was pretty good too it tasted like a perfect Korean fried chicken with a little bit of spicy! It's mouth watering !

    Solid plate lunch. Come early as they can be busy. Friendly staff and good food. Got the popular firecracker chicken- crispy chicken chunks w a sweet and spicy glaze. Mini plate is huge - got it no rice and just Mac and greens

    Firecracker chicken

    Hands down our best meal in Oahu! The firecracker chicken was insaneeeee. The portion, flavors, everything was to die for. The sauce? Just wow. We placed our orders and there was a sign saying it would take about 20-30 minutes, and it took about that. It was well worth the wait. I will absolutely come back to Queen St. if I'm back in Oahu!

    Firecracker chicken and shoyu ahi combo with Mac salad
    Kylie S.

    Grabbed a late lunch after flying home today. Service was friendly even though they were short staffed! They had a limited menu today as per staffing, but had most of their main items available. Note that there was a sign saying cash or Venmo only. Wait time was about 20 min. We ordered the combo firecracker chicken and shoyu ahi poke, limu poke bowl, and garlic furikake chicken plate. I enjoyed the firecracker chicken. Admittedly not the best fried chicken I've had but the flavor was definitely unique. Not too spicy, and pulled more sweet from the sweet chili sauce. Chicken was still crispy even though it was topped with sauces. Shoyu poke was alright, not a lot of shoyu flavor. Limu poke was also good, I think I'd prefer that over the shoyu. Garlic furikake chicken (~$15) was alright. Some pieces were tough. I'd probably pick somewhere else if I'm in the mood for garlic chicken. All in all, food was decent for the price. Poke bowl was a little pricey (I think around $20). You could probably find cheaper and more variety of poke options elsewhere. However, there aren't too many plate lunch stops in the area so it's a good option if you want something that might hit the spot!

    Firecracker chicken and Steak

    Every time I drive past this place to go by the post office I smell the delicious aroma of BBQ and vow to pick up food one day. Hubs went by the other day so we could finally try it out. Food came fairly quickly considering the warning that it may take 20-25 mins for orders to be completed. We got the teriyaki salmon and steak/firecracker chicken plates with mashed potatoes and tossed salad. The salad had a lovely house dressing; bbq, chicken and salmon were all perfectly seasoned and so tasty. Worth the wait and excited to try more of their dishes!

    Steak and Limu Poke Salad
    Ange M.

    I was in the area on Saturday and decided to come here for Lunch. I remember they had a really good steak plate. I ordered steak with limu poke, all salad w/oriental dressing. The woman who took my order was really friendly. The credit card machine was down that day so they were only taking cash or Venmo. The poke was so fresh and the steak was so good. The only thing that wasn't good was the dressing, I wouldn't recommend it. Probably just stick to the basics like ranch or 1000 island next time I come here.

    Steak and lup cheong fried rice minus some steak because I couldn't wait.  just know they give a good amount.  It still looks full.
    Gina H.

    Prices are really fair and the workers are soo nice! Today I ordered the Kiawe steak with lup cheong fried rice. This place has good quality food. Good amount of steak and fried rice filled to whole half of the plate! Lots of meat in the fried rice and just to help customers out the shoyu seasoning is not aloha but I'm not sure if it's kikkoman or Yamasa. JIC that is or isn't the flavor profile you are looking for. I highly recommend and will be back.

    Garlic Shrimp & Fried Rice

    Spicy Garlic Shrimp & Veggie Fried Rice... it was pretty flavorful, not too much spice- large portion size. It seemed to be best to place order over the phone, then pick up- its a to go type spot. I would def recommend the dish that I had...

    U.H Special Plate
    Janice L.

    We haven't been here for years! We ordered the UH special plate and shared it because it was a lot of food! Everything was ONOLICIOUS, the ahi fish katsu with tartar sauce, luncheon meat was sliced thick, furikake garlic chicken was juicy and soft and the kiawe steak was cooked to perfection medium rare with kim chee fried rice. The wait was about 25-30 minutes as posted which we didn't mind. There were already a couple of customers waiting and then some after us. We'll be back again to try out the rest of the menu and get some sweet goodies. Mahalo Queen's Cafe!

    Always a go to for a steak plate. Great customer service be sure to call in for a pick up since all the food is made to order and might have to wait a bit.

    i called a pick up order at 11:30 they said it would be ready for pick up at 12:45 luckily i had errands to run before. But the food is amazing! Worth the wait for sure. I wanted to try dessert but they were out already. Maybe next time! I will be going back. Only 2 tables outside this is a place for on the go and take home or back to work. Everything tasted great

    Fried Rice, Grilled Steak, Firecracker Chicken
    Tiffany S.

    Our new favorite plate lunch on the island! The line and the wait can get pretty long (we probably waited 30-40 minutes on a weekday during lunch time), but it's worth it! You place your order at the door and they'll give you a pager so you can wait in the area. It's located in a small shopping mall with a parking lot. Portions are big, so my husband and I shared a plate lunch with two proteins- the grilled steak and the firecracker chicken. We also upgraded the rice to fried rice (definitely do that!). It was so delicious! The steak was cooked medium rare, and I liked that there were no bones so it was easy to eat on the go. The firecracker chicken was also great. Even though it's covered in sauce, the chicken was still crispy and juicy. Queens Street Cafe is going to be a must-have for us on trips moving forward!

    This gem of a place is located mauka of Pearlridge Center up…read moreKaonohi past the townhouses. Don't drive too fast or you could miss it, but there's a sign on right side saying Pearl Country Club to turn into their private driveway. Free parking is plentiful and you can either enter from porte cochere or by the white vinyl fencing which is the way we enter- there's ADA parking stalls and then we walk along the pathway next to building til you get to their lanai. The view is spectacular of Pearl Harbor and greens. We love sitting on the lanai and its seat-yourself so a server will come out to give menus. The place has been bought so a complete renovation with lovely new chairs, tables, couches, even a fire pit! Inside there are TVs abound and a nice full bar with 10 seats and TV. The breakfast menu is pretty darn good and hats off to their chef! It's healthy, delicious, nice portions! We love the $17 fish breakfast with a nice piece of salmon, rice, two eggs and fruit garnish. Perfectly prepared each time! My daughter and I also enjoy the omelette which has choices of meats, veggies so we always get the vegetarian one and boy is it fat and ono! Comes with rice, potatoes or toast. What's also special is their complimentary cornbread per guest - each of us receive our own plate of two squares with butter and jelly. Service is always excellent! You'll be lucky to have either Annie, Nette or Jazlyn - Annie and Nette been there for a long time and made the switch to those newfangled-techie-handheld computers - they take our order with such grace that I'm proud of them lol Jazlyn is very sweet too and takes care of us old folks like we were her own parents. Our 2-year old granddaughter enjoys eating there too and looks forward to seeing Annie, Nette and now Jazlyn! They bring two new crayons and a cute picture of dinosaurs golfing to keep her occupied while us grownups chat. Usually not very busy if you go before the first round of golfers pau. Bathrooms are right around the corner - no stairs to access. Their pro shop is upstairs if you care to check it out. The only thing I wish they had is papaya. They do have a nice little fruit cup for $5 chock full of strawberries, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, and grapes. They are having an Easter Brunch on April 20 with an extensive buffet (posted pic of menu) for $75 adults, $45 for ages 4-12 and free for kids 3 and under. This is our first time attending so will be back with a review.

If you order takeout there's one menu online but if you dine in there's a happy hour menu from 3-6 plus bar menu. The catch if you dine in is that there's a 2 drink minimum per person at regular prices. All dishes came out piping hot (except ahi poke) and fresh . The happy hour dishes were wonderful, especially the manapuas! The spicy pork cheese manapua were great and a bit different. The chasui manapua were delicious. Garlic fries were extra crispy, lots of garlic but greasy. The poke fresh and lemon pepper salt wings crispy but juicy. So all in all a great option for happy hour goodness.

Location: Kitchen Deja Vu is located inside the Blue Tropix Bar & Grill, which just so happens to be right across the Chili's from Pearlridge Center. Parking: Plenty! You can park anywhere in the Pearlridge Center parking lot Food: We ordered 5 items 1) pan fried pork cheese buns: 10/10 - pillowy soft bread expertly soaks up all the juices from the pork filling, perfectly pan fried bottom adds a bit of crunchy texture, pork filling was seasoned well and there was a decent amount of cheese inside as well (it was giving pizza flavor vibes), supposedly "spicy" but it wasn't too bad at all so this would be good even for those with a low spice tolerance 2) pulehu style short ribs: 10/10 - incredible smoked and grilled flavor, cooked and seasoned to perfection! They're not stingy either, nice portion size and a hearty amount of meat on each short rib too 3) big shrimp potstickers: 11/10 - succulent pork & shrimp filling filled to the brim of wrapper! Very on brand because these buggahs was massive and sooo tasty! Classic potsticker taste and there's a whole shrimp in there too, paired with their shoyu vinegar (I think) sauce and wooo this one was winnnahz ‍ 4) charsui udon: 10/10 - nice & chewy udon noodles and absolutely loaded with charsui and veggies that were so wonderfully stir fried allowing them to soften just a little but remain crispy, adding another layer of texture to the dish and ensuring you get a nice little crunch in every bite! 5) kau yuk (caramelized pork belly): 10/10 - big chunks of sweet & savory pork belly, but not as sweet as the name would have you think. It's actually perfectly balanced, you can definitely taste some authentic asian spices going on in there, and the meat was nice and tender Service: 11/10 We ordered take out but you can absolutely dine in if you wanted to, plenty of booths and/or tables to choose from. But I did wanna mention that we were lucky enough to meet Charlie, the owner! Really nice guy, after we gave him our order, our server Kyle took such good care of us. Checked in on us multiple times & offered to get us some water while waiting for our food. Overall: 10/10 Food was delicious, the chefs obviously know what's good, hats off to them! First time trying this place out and it didn't disappoint and love that you can also order directly from your phone through all major food delivery apps or you can even text your order in, how convenient!

We had reservations for 6 at 11:30 a.m. The place filled up fast. We had a sweet young server. I think it depends on what you order. There is a children's menu. Our orders were: Kiddie chicken & fries Saimin Ochazuke salmon Club sandwich Chicken and chili Kalbi plate Later we had dessert: Vanilla ice cream Chocolate ice cream Fried chocolate ice cream 2 pumpkin crunch The prices are reasonable for lunch. With tax and tip our check was $160+ for 6. Hubs said that was the best club sandwich he ever had. I was sad to see that Sweetie's noodles looked overcooked and mushy. My kalbi had a bit too much charred ends with the most burnt one hidden by the rest under them on the bottom. They have coffee but no ice coffee. The server asked if Sweetie wanted refill on her Sprite. Kiddie's mom asked for a tea cup for the tea pot. She made a haku lei for me but I chose to wear it around my neck- she said like a horse at the derby. Wish I could but... I can't pull off wearing a haku lei. After lunch we went outside to take photos and the greens looked nice. A nice man passing by offered to take our group photo. Thankyou. Big mahalo to the caring gentleman at the Podium who drove me down on the golf cart. Stairs and I aren't friends. It was easier to walk up to the parking lot afterwards from the farthest left of the restaurant. The only bad thing were flies buzzing around during our meal even though it was indoors.
