It always smells good going in there but this was takeout so ambiance was not pertinent to this order. I think those specials they run might be the best value for your dollar. We probably come here once a month due to the high cost but sometimes you just have to have a great cheesesteak no matter the cost.

Everyone knows I'm a big fan of Ohana subs in Aiea, so when my kids went to Costco on Sunday and…read morethey texted that they were going to stop at Jersey Mike's because they open at 10:00 on the way home and it was 10 o'clock in the morning. I said OK I ordered the number 1BLT sandwich needless to say at 10 o'clock in the morning, I honestly believe it was day old bread. I'm used to soft puffy bread...this bread was bite, tear and chew forever. The bacon, while an ample amount , was thin and flavorless, the tomatoes were paper thin and a scant layer and the lettuce.....it was there. I asked for mayo only and no vinegar or oil. I got mayo again a scant amount. This was the driest, chewiest, most flavorless sandwich I've ever had from a sub shop. I've always said I never had a sub I couldn't find something to like but I need to retract that statement. This was the worst sub ever. 2.5 stars.

Melanie was waiting outside and sent her daughter and other half to pick up their drinks when finished. The little girl said thank you and the worker smiled at her. I overheard Melanie ask her daughter if the worker said "you're welcome" to which the daughter responded no. Melanie could be heard saying "some people are just awkward." Then I heard Melanie ask her other half "What's the name of this place?" I already knew she was going to write a negative review. Just a rude customer trying to find something to complain about. Service for me was good. The drinks did take a while to make, but the worker apologized for the wait and thanked me. To the yelper Melanie, learn some patience and have some grace.

Naks Cafe is definitely worth checking out if you're in the Pearl City area and craving a really…read moregood burger. They're located inside the Donquijote Food Court and have ample seating inside as well as outside. I went with the Wagyu burger, fries, and tossed salad, and all three were very tasty. The burger was juicy and flavorful, the fries were salty and crispy on the outside, and the tossed salad was light and the dressing paired perfectly with it. One thing to keep in mind: they make everything fresh to order, so the wait can be a little longer than your typical quick-service spot. I actually think the freshness is worth the extra time, but it's something to be aware of if you're in a hurry. Also tried the Apple Mint Mojito, which was delicious--light, refreshing, and a great complement to the burger. One tip: If you prefer your burger more well-done, definitely let them know when you order. The burger can come out on the rarer/juicier side, so communicate your preferred doneness upfront. Overall, a tasty meal with quality ingredients and a nice made-to-order feel. 5/5 stars and I'd definitely come back.

The girl at the register was super friendly and helpful, and the whole team just seemed on it. We were honestly blown away by how fast everything came out. Our sandwiches were ready in what felt like less than 2 minutes. Perfect for a quick lunch without sacrificing quality. We shared the BLT with added avocado and the Goodfella with added bacon, and both were delicious. Everything tasted great, and the service really stood out. We will definitely be back!

It's cheaper than Subway but they don't have as many hot heros as them. I have to ask for extra mayo because their bread is harder and dryer than what I'm use to in a grinder. Timmy T's does a good mix of naming their hoagies after American and Hawaiian themes. Overall three stars. It's not my favorite but they are reasonably priced and close to base. Flavor is there as long as you ask for extra mayo and oregano :p M

Lunch in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. I read Donna O.'s review and saw her photos of Munch on Mi. I agreed with her about the name of the business... cute... and clever! Located at the Liliha Food Court, the shared parking with McDonald's is free! Inside, there's a common dining area with all of the vendors. It's quiet and nicely air-conditioned, with a convenient restroom! Service was super friendly and efficient. I was asked if i wanted pate on my Lemongrass Tofu Banh Mi. At first, I thought it was an odd question. Then, I thought... why not! Let's try it! The next question was: would you like jalapeños? My answer: no, thank you! That's a great question because you won't waste jalapeños on me! I was given a buzzer that would alert me as to when my order was ready. I the meantime, I visited the other vendors. Soon, my order was ready and I took it to my table. My first impression: wow... the sandwich is longer than the package! Next impression: mmm... this tastes super delicious! The bread had a crisp crust and the filling was generous! It spilled out onto my napkin which I licked up! LOL! The pate added a different dimension to the banh mi. It had a tasty, complimentary flavor! I went back to the staff to let them know how excellent that pate was. They were beaming when they explained that they clean the liver really well before they create the pate. It had a pleasant, savory taste... not the usual gaminess! Try it! You might like it! I'll be back!

One of the many cool things about Earl's sandwiches is that their portions are perfect for sharing.

Let's not forget the Swiss cheese, sweet peppers, mustard, and mayo. Bacon waffle fries- delicious ! If you're a French fry lover, you won't wish to share this dish! Great quality, flavors and service .. I'll be back again!!

It's been a while since we've dined here. But now there is a new location (actually same complex…read morebut different store front). So much bigger than the previous place. They opened at 8am and we were there a little after 8:30 on a Sunday and yes, there was a line. But not too long a line and after we were seated there was no line but then a long line when we were leaving. So it is hit or miss in terms of wait time. Cross your fingers and the seating gods may be generous and kind to you. Menu id basically the same. And although there were four females to help with answering the phones for takeout orders, bussing and serving as well as taking orders and payment their system is efficient. When your table is ready you order and pay (if you order a drink a cup for your coffee or drink will be given). It saves time for you to wait for someone to take your order and later to wave someone down to pay. I know other places use this system (like Joe's on Nimitz) but it seems very practical here. Every table had a cold bottle of water waiting for the diners (so no wait help had to refill glasses) and I saw one of the wait help exchange the one on the table for a new cold bottle (that table was vacant for a while). The food is plentiful (most people had at least one take out container) and delicious. My corn beef wasn't from a can and cooked so there was a crisp but still soft on the inside. The spinach and mushrooms were fresh (once had canned mushrooms in my omelet at Zippy's -ugh).

Breakfast was ordered here through Grubhub for Grandparents Day from the kiddies. While waiting…read morefor the order to arrive the time changed from 9:30 am delivery til after 10 a.m. Then the order was cancelled. I'm surprised the restaurant didn't notify us that we wouldn't be receiving what was ordered since we waited with anticipation for over 2 hours and were hungry. The kiddies' mom had to call Button Up to find out the status of the order, tell them to hold onto the order, pick it up herself and deliver it to us. Tsk tsk tsk. The order consisted of ube French toast, short rib Benedict and fried rice with omelette. The French toast and potatoes were the best to me. The kiddies' mom said everything tasted good but it would probably be better hot and to dine there instead. Yelp lists them closed but they were open today, Sunday.

"Lucky you live Pearl City! $6 Meals!!?"…read more  Did you hear about Pearl City Foodland's $6 Specials they offer Monday - Friday?  They are the bomb!!   With the prices of everything going UP, UP, UP there's now a place you can enjoy ono food for only $6! I have 2 favorites -- Tuesday & Thursday.   I eat it practically every week and you'd never guess when you see it! Tuesday is the BBQ Bowl -- You get ypur choice of meat, rice, and a side (banchan). I always get the smoke meat with pickled onion on rice. The smoked meat has plenty smoked taste, just enough fat, and it's not tough (you know what I mean).  The pickled onion is the perfect compliment!   Love the bite and the vinegar taste -- cuts though and brings it all together!   They give you quite a bit in the bowl.  Definitely enough to make me smile!    Again ---- $6.00!!!!! Thursday is another winner in my book.   It's noodle day!!!  I used to get the Mega which had everything in it.   It was a special that they had at the beginning but it's been discontinued.  I think the only one I'm not too crazy about is the curry.   I know some like it -- but having watery curry with noodles is just not me.   The rest are pretty good.   They warm up the noodles right there and add all the goodies on top.  It's take out so they give you the hot broth in another container ---- perfect so your noodles don't get soggy!   I think it's a great 'buy and eat later' meal! I think the only negative is that sometimes the parking lot is very, very full.  If you go early it's not too bad.    The rest of the days they have kalua pig burrito, nachos, and the $6/lb food bar Friday.   With all the prices on everything going UP, UP, UP, it's so nice that we can have a good and satisfying meal for $6.00.    Thank you Foodland -- Food, Family, and Friends!!!
