    Everything is delicious here! From the smokin Moco to the amazing cornbeef hash! Not to mention, amazing service by folks who remember who you are and what you like. Great place.

    I have to recommend what I had! The Kalua Benny and Mac Nut Pancake. The red gravy on the kalua pork reminds me of homemade enchiladas. It's delicious! Great service! REALLY good food!

    We skipped the luau packages of other venues and chose to try Highway Inn for a taste of Hawaiian food - didn't regret it a bit! Yummy dishes & super friendly staff. Get the super combo w extra squid

    Some of the best local/Hawaiian food found on the island. The luau stew is a must try, as well as Ed Morita's baked goods. Get some! #brokedamout

    New location for an authentic Hawaiian food institution, serving up meals on school cafeteria trays. Tender tripe stew, delicious squid laulau, great cocktails, everything is good.

    Breakfast, coffee, the atmosphere, and of course the hawaiian food. Local brews at night.

    Pick up their Malihini guide to Hawaiian Food if you are not familiar with the Hawaiian names as their menu has just the names

    Always ask for Specials - they are really good - you'd be paying twice as much for some of these dishes down in Waikiki

    How do you know this place is good? Their AC is out today and it’s hot (29C/84F) but the place is still PACKED! 😋

    Sizzling pipikaula, resembles the old Leong's chopsteak and onions even taste the same.
