Where can I find some local restaruants that the locals go to for good food?|105713

Me and my wife will be in Oahu next week and I am trying to find soem good local places to eat that will not rob us blind.

SIDE STREET INN - 1225 Hopaka Street
Located in a mostly industrial area near Ala Moana Shopping Center. It_s where the local restaurant chefs go to get together and eat - so you might say it would be the best place to eat. It_s from simple food to culinary delight. The place is not fancy and literally on a side street, but the service are friendly. You might wait for 5 - 45 minutes. Google it to find out more. Take advantage of the fresh seafood in Hawaii. Makes me hungry now, again. Good luck!

There are many local restaurants that are very good and usually very reasonable. It all depends on what you_re looking for as far as menu.

Zippy_s is a local favorite that you MUST go to. They have a variety of food and you_ll be able to stay on a budget by eating there.

However, there are MANY other places......wander around and see what interests you around your hotel or on your travels around the island. I_m sure you_ll be able to find something that tickles your fancy (we are after all the _melting pot_ of the Pacific and you_ll be able to find almost anything you_re looking for easily.

Happy hunting for some good food and happy travels!

The Honolulu Advertiser does a good job of highlighting many of the top restaurants. It depends on what part of the island you will be on.

Just walk down the side streets. If you see a place that looks kind of cluttered, try it. I like Grace_s Inn on Beretania.

Giovanni_s Shrimp Truck, North Shore of the island. Theee BESTTTT!!!! also, here are some of my other favorites:

Sunset Grill -Waikiki, Ala Moana Blvd.
good steaks! awesome portions.

Zippy_s -Good chili! pretty good menu _ the bakery is good too. Locations off Ala Moana Blvd.

Golden Coin- Filipino food, really good BBQ sticks! off King Street crossing street is Nimitz Blvd, Honolulu.

Huli-Huli Chicken - sold in front of church on Saturdays in Kane_ohe going towards Windward Mall... Sooo good!!!
