BUZZ'S STEAKHOUSE

The best blended Coconut Mojito on Island! You gotta try "Deez Nutz"

DA SPOT

If you find yourself in town and looking for budget friendly options, here you go. They load up your plate with things like Moroccan Chicken, Coconut Lemon Fish, Saffron Rice, and salad. All for around $12.

FARM TO BARN

If you find yourself on the North Shore looking for locally sourced food, this is the spot. The veggie burrito with bacon added is fantastic.

HALEIWA JOE'S

Want a Prime Rib the size of your face? Look no further. Haleiwa Joes has two locations: Ocean front in Haleiwa and one in a botanical garden in Kaneohe. The Kaneohe location offers some of the best mountain views you can find. They open at 4pm and don't take reservations. As a popular destination, expect to be waiting in line if you don't arrive right at 4pm.

ISLAND BREW - HAWAII KAI

A cup of coffee with a view. Sit on the edge of the water while sipping a latte and eating your avocado toast. You're paying for the aesthetic here, but honestly...worth it.

K BAY BROS POKE

You can't go wrong here. Get a 2 choice plate and load up on the Lava Flow, Pa`ina, Pau Hana, or Spicy Avocado.

KAHUKU FARMS

If you end up staying in Laie or making your way north at any point during your stay, this place is worth your while. Highlights include: Pesto flatbread with chicken added, veggie panini, acai bowls, and their drinks. You can't go wrong! Stock up on their Mac Nut Crumble and Hot Fudge Sauce too!

SEVEN BROTHERS

The mother of ALL burgers. The Paniolo. Topped with onion rings, bacon, and pineapple? You have to unhinge your jaw to take a bite. Their fries are unique and their milkshakes are delicious. Note that their milkshakes are not served at every location, but their banana bread is!

SOUTH SHORE GRILL

Ono (delicious) grinds (food) near Diamond Head. Try the Kalbi tacos or a fish burrito with fries. Mouth watering and delicious!

SURFERS

Looking for a simple cafe to get your fix? Surfers offers up some of the best drinks on island. They have three types of chai, but you won't go wrong choosing the Tiger Spice Chai. Yum!

TEX808

Does this rival Texas BBQ? Not even close. Do they have delicious brisket tacos, great chips and salsa, and amazing waterfront views? YES. Just make sure you head to their Hawaii Kai location for immaculate vibes (and some cornhole!)

WAIAHOLE POI FACTORY

Looking to try some local cuisine? Look no further. The Kalua Pig is ono and the Squid Luau is an experience you won't want to miss. Top it off with some poi and haupia (coconut pudding). But don't leave without trying a Sweet Lady of Waiahole or a Tahitian Sweet Lady.
