Oahu Dining

Double Lines

The metropolitan center of Hawaii, Oahu has a variety of excellent restaurants to choose from. On Oahu you can eat like a local in small neighborhoods like Kapahulu or Haleiwa or dine in high style at some of Hawaii's finest restaurants in Waikiki and beyond.

Oahu is home to arguably some of the best chefs in the world. Alan Wong ( Alan Wong's Restaurant ), Roy Yamaguchi ( Roy's Waikiki ), George Mavrothalassitis ( Chef Mavro Restaurant ) and Phillippe Padovani (Elua) were some of the founding chefs of the Hawaii Regional Cuisine movement. These local legends take the freshest, locally grown produce and ingredients to create flavorful dishes for visitors and locals alike. Make your reservations at these Honolulu restaurants or at hot spots throughout Oahu and get a taste of this unique culinary fusion of Hawaii's ethnic influences. For a list of restaurants right in the heart of the action, go to Waikiki dining or click on Honolulu Dining for everything from quaint cafes to city chic.

  • Hawaii Regional Cuisine on Oahu

    Hawaii Regional Cuisine inventively blends Oahu's freshest flavors with the cuisine of the world.

Hawaii locals love to eat. And Oahu offers a variety of comfort foods and farm to table restaurants in a variety of off-the-beaten path locations, from Honolulu to Haleiwa on the North Shore. The neighborhood of Kapahulu , for example, is a perfect place to eat where the locals eat and it's just five minutes from the east end of Waikiki . Wherever you go, you'll discover the ethnic diversity of Hawaii in these distinct local dishes:

Plate Lunch
Consisting of two scoops of rice, macaroni salad and everything from kalua pork, Korean barbecue, chicken katsu, beef teriyaki or mahimahi, the plate lunch is a staple of local food. In Kapahulu, the Rainbow Drive-In, Ono Hawaiian Foods and Zippy's (Oahu's 24-hour mainstay) offer local favorite plates. But throughout Oahu, from mom and pop shops to local chains, you won't have to look far to find the perfect plate lunch.

Pupu
“Pupu” is the Hawaiian term for appetizer, and every local restaurant from Waikiki to the North Shore offers a wide range of creative pupu platters to dine on, from poke dishes (seasoned cubes of raw fish) to sushi.

Loco Moco
For big appetites, try a “loco moco,” which is a hamburger steak and egg over rice, covered in gravy. This hearty, blue-collar bowl can be found at plate lunch places and restaurants throughout Oahu. Some Hawaii Regional Cuisine chefs like Alan Wong have even created fine dining twists on this favorite.

Shave Ice
No matter what island you're on, grab a shave ice to cool off. These finely shaved snow cones are served with colorful flavors on the top with a choice of ice cream or azuki beans on the bottom. You'll find fine shave ice shops throughout Oahu but the most famous include Matsumoto's Shave Ice on the North Shore, Waiola's Shave Ice in Kapahulu and Island Snow in Kailua Town near Kailua Beach .

Malasadas
Treat your sweet tooth to a hot malasada (a Portuguese doughnut). Although Leonard's Bakery in Kapahulu is popular, ask any local and they can tell you their favorite bakeries on Oahu to find these fresh and tasty treats.

Hawaii Regional Cuisine on Oahu

In 1991, 12 Hawaii chefs established Hawaii Regional Cuisine, a culinary movement that inventively blends Hawaii's diverse, ethnic flavors with the cuisine of the world.

One of the main tenets of Hawaii Regional Cuisine is to take advantage of the freshest island ingredients: cattle raised on the islands' upland pastures, fruits and vegetables grown from volcanic soil, and fish from one of the best managed fisheries around. From Waimanalo greens to Kahuku corn you'll find some of the freshest locally grown foods, fish and beef in Oahu's restaurants where the farm to table movement is thriving.

Four of the original chefs behind the Hawaii Regional Cuisine movement have restaurants on Oahu: Alan Wong ( Alan Wong's Restaurant , Pineapple Room in the Ala Moana Center ), Roy Yamaguchi ( Roy's Waikiki , Roy's Hawaii Kai , locations throughout the islands) and George Mavrothalassitis ( Chef Mavro ). Other fine restaurants in the resort areas of Waikiki and throughout Honolulu feature the unique flavors of Hawaii Regional Cuisine.
