Islander Drive Inn

great experience. friendly buyer was quite busy (but nothing could not have them.) we ordered loco moco, the handpacked hamburgerpatties and had a very good engraving. the garlic chicken was very tasty and I had the huhn katsu and teriyaki broccoli huhn, two-piece plate, which was also good. the credit card surcharge had our meal just under $50. we ate outside. the green fly are very fat. this restaurant is recommended.

my elders were the first customers when this restaurant opened more than 20 years ago and was a land of islanders. the chef and my mother had become friends and I'm working there now and I understand why eating is delicious.

eating is good here, but hers always closed so early. I wish they were at least open until after 9 maybe.

Stopped in for a quick bite for my kids. They enjoyed the BBQ burgers and fries. Not bad, the service was quick and the cashier was pleasant.

Huge variety of local style choices. Has everything, Korean style food, Chinese style, Hawaiian food. Quality on par with places like L&L Drive Inn or LocoMoco. Not sure if it's a requirement for Drive Inns to be grimy and unkept inside, but this place is no exception. Got burger and fries, neither disappointed. I'd go back if in the area, but wouldn't make a special trip. Good enough for Wahiawa quick bite, better than going to McDonald's.

I like their beef stew. Normally they're fast since the stew is already made so they just have to put the scoop of rice, mac salad the stew. Person in front of me ordered 4 plates. They got theirs before the counter person packaged my mini order.

We decided to try this place for the first time. The place had only 2 other customers. We ordered hamburger steak with chicken Katsu and a cheeseburger deluxe combo. Price is reasonable. However, the food didn't taste fresh. The hamburger steak was cooked perfect and the gravy was delicious but the meat hamburger had that taste when blood absorbs and it stays longer in the freezer/fridge for to long. The chicken katsu was crispy but the chicken didn't taste fresh either. Mac salad and rice was good. The cheeseburger was ok but the meat tasted the same as the hamburger steak. The French fries was great! The employee seemed ok. Didn't really smile but at least she said thank you. Restaurant a little sticky but tables and floor seemed clean enough. I think I'm going to give it another try with more people to get feedback and try something different. Always good to go back and give places a 2nd chance.
