    Kaimuki Restaurants (Oahu)

    Published: Feb 23, 2020 · Modified: Apr 27, 2025 by Kathy · This post may contain affiliate links · 6 Comments

    Located a 15 minute drive from Waikiki, Kaimuki is local Hawaii neighborhood filled with mom and pop eateries, sweet shops, and all around amazing food. Here are all the good spots (plus a few non-food places).

    Li hing mui Icee from Crack Seed Store.

    Kaimuki Neighborhood

    Welcome to Kaimuki! This is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Honolulu, and one that I spent a lot of time in growing up.

    Like Manoa Valley, Kaimuki is a very local neighborhood (it's starting to get popular with visitors, which is a mix of good and bad). Kaimuki has serious charm and old school vibes. The folks invested in this neighborhood make a big effort to #keepitkaimuki as the neighborhood slowly begins to modernize.

    The main reason I love Kaimuki? There are so many great things to eat! Below is a list of all the best places to eat in Kaimuki. Waialae Avenue is the main vein that runs through the neighborhood and most restaurants are located either on or right off Waialae Avenue.

    Because there are so many places to visit, I divided the neighborhood into two parts:

    • Kaimuki: Upper Half (above 11th Avenue)
    • Kaimuki: Lower Half (below 11th Avenue)

    Kaimuki: Upper Half 

    Listed in alphabetical order ^_^ 

    Asuka Nabe + Shabu Shabu
    This place is always busy and super packed. It's causal and cozy, but you'll definitely want to make reservations. Great for night out with friends. Each nabe or shabu set ranges from $18-36 a person. Open for dinner only. Walk to Cowcow's Tea or Pipeline Bakery up the block for dessert. 3620 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Crack Seed Store
    The beloved Crack Seed Store! Mr. Young retired recently, but the store is in great hands with Mei Fang and family. You must visit and order the Li Hing Mui Icee (details in this post), and pick up a few favorite crack seed items (I like the king li hing mui and wet mango). 1156 Koko Head Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Organic Drinking Yogurt from Cowcow's Tea.

    Cowcow's Tea
    Cowcow's is probably my single most visited place in Kaimuki. They have a big drink menu but I only order from one section: Organic Drinking Yogurt. It's an icy yogurt drink (like a yogurt slushy) and comes in many flavors.

    There are fresh fruit flavors like mango, peach, avocado etc. There are other equally delicious flavor combos like rose-lychee. The jujube (Chinese red dates) is also SO delicious. I usually rotate between one of these five. It's incredibly refreshing on a hot day, and while it's super flavorful, it's never too heavy. All the flavors come with the purple rice topping. Perfectly cooked! You can pick the sweetness level. 25% sweetness is ideal.

    Hale Vietnam
    One of the nicer (but still super causal) Vietnamese restaurants in town. It's a bit more expensive than Vietnamese places in Chinatown, but worth it for the convenience. I'm not sure how this came to be, but Hale Vietnam seems to be extra popular with tourists from Japan (funny because Kaimuki isn't yet a big tourist destination). 1140 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Oden from Japanese Restaurant Aki

    Japanese Restaurant Aki
    Aki is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Honolulu. This place has great lunch specials during the day and a dinner menu full with excellent yakitori, sashimi, soy milk hot pot, and beef tongue shabu. Don't miss the oden! I could make a whole meal out of oden alone here. No need reservations at lunch, but you'll need reservations for dinner (it gets super busy). 1137 11th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96814

    Koa Pancake House
    Quick and casual, no frills, breakfast and lunch spot. You can get everything from omelets to crêpes and pancakes, fried rice, and build your own loco moco. 1139 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Koko Head Cafe
    From celebrity chef Lee Anne Wong, Koko Head Cafe is a super popular breakfast/lunch/brunch restaurant. There is usually a wait (shorter on the weekdays, long on the weekends). We usually order the breakfast jook/congee (complete with cinnamon-bacon croutons), the two eggs breakfast plate with maple-siracha sausage, and poi biscuits and gravy. Breakfast bibimbap is also great. 1145 12th Ave C, Honolulu, HI 96816

    The Seven Salads from Leila in Kaimuki.

    Leila
    In the old Angelo Pietro space, Leila is a beautiful new Moroccan restaurant from Chris Kajioka and Mourad Lahlou. It's a set 3-course menu with optional add-ons like the uni brioche and fresh oysters. Every meal begins with warm za’atar flatbread and "The Seven Salads" (pictured above). Select your main course - we had the lamb, roasted and beautifully spiced. Don't forget to add a side of hand rolled couscous. So good! 1108 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Corned beef hash, eggs, and hashbrown breakfast at Moke's

    Moke's Bread & Breakfast Kaimuki
    Moke's original location is in Kailua and we are thrilled they opened in Kaimuki! This is a breakfast and lunch spot. Casual, comfortable, and really friendly service. It's a great spot to bring the whole family. Moke's is famous for the lilikoi pancakes (must get!), loco moco, and housemade corned beef hash. 1127 11th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Nana Ai Katsu - Uzumaki Shiso Katsu Roll Bento.

    Nana Ai Katsu
    Nana Ai Katsu is a super delicious katsu shop! Order at the counter and seat yourself. They are most popular for the Kasane Tonkatsu Bento where the pork is layered mille-feuille style (as opposed to one big piece of pork). The Spam katsu musubi is also a crowd pleaser.

    My personal favorite? Uzumaki Shiso Katsu Roll Bento! The pork is rolled with shiso leaves, and it is SO juicy. Anything rolled with shiso is a winner in my books. Call or text your order 30 minutes ahead of time - they can get pretty busy during both lunch and dinner.

    Lau lau, tripe stew, lomi salmon...Hawaiian eats at Oahu Grill

    Oahu Grill
    Oahu Grill is a Kaimuki newcomer but already a favorite among all the locals. It's not easy to find Hawaiian food in this part of town so we are very grateful to have them here! Oahu Grill is a family business, and the menu is rich with classic Hawaiian dishes. Order the lau lau, chicken long rice, squid luau, and salt meat with watercress. Also! Don't forget the mac salad which they make old fashioned style with macaroni and spaghetti mixed together. 1137 11th Ave #104, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Mini bentos from Okata Bento

    Okata Bento
    An old school Hawaii spot! There are not many of these kinds of places left. It's pretty amazing how they've managed to keep the prices so low and accessible to everyone. Order from the takeout window, no seating. Okata is ideal for picking up bentos (like chicken katsu, beef teriyaki, mahi mahi, loco moco, etc) for pre/post visit to the beach. 3616 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Cheesecake from Otto Cake

    CLOSED - Otto Cake
    For cheesecake! This place is all about the cheesecake which is offered in dozens of flavors like lilikoi, lemon, and caramel. They also make several non-cheesecake sweets including a very, very good carrot cake. Cash only. 1127 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Lilikoi cream cheese bar from Pipeline Bakeshop

    Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery
    My wish for Hawaii is to have more bakeries and sweet shops like this, where you can meet friends, eat desserts, and sit around and chat. There's always a good reason to visit Pipeline. Craving hot malasadas (or malasada bread pudding)? Come here. What about Pumpkin Crunch? They got. Ice cream? Check. Cakes and bars and brownies? Done and done. Full post on Pipeline here. 3632 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Sprout Sandwich Shop
    If E.A.R.L is the more indulgent sandwich shop of Kaimuki, then Sprout is the lighter sandwich shop. Lots of fresh veggies and greens here. I often order the mozzarella, tomato, basil or the tomato hummus, kale, and carrots sandwich.. 1154 Koko Head Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Negitoro bowl from Totoya in Kaimuki.

    Totoya
    Totoya opened in Kaimuki late 2024. The lines are often long and through they're open for lunch and dinner I prefer to come for a late lunch (around 1:30-2pm) for the shortest wait time. The negitori bowls are generous and fun. They come with a raw egg and homemade shoyu on the side. Mix the egg and shoyu and pour it over the bowl like a sauce. Ready to eat! Pictured above is the Tokujo bowl which includes negitoro, uni, ikura, and snow crab. Full post on Totoya here. 1127 12th Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96816 (in the former Otto Cake space).

    Chocolate and haupia at Via Gelato

    Via Gelato
    Wonderful gelato shop! A neighborhood fixture and a must-visit when in Kaimuki. I definitely have go-to flavors (Fierce Chocolate, Haupia, and Black Sesame), but keep an eye out on Via Gelato's instagram for daily specials. P.S. They make the waffle cones in-house...always smells so good in there. 1142 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Yakitori Ando
    This place is yakitori heaven. Reservations are a must (make it a few weeks in advance because they are always booked). Specify that you want to sit at the bar. No menus, omakase only. Favorite pieces: bacon mochi, chicken gizzards, and Kauai shrimp. The dinner finishes with an incredible motsunabe (which I love even more than the yakitori itself). 1215 Center St #200, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Kaimuki: Lower Half 

    Listed in alphabetical order ^_^ 

    Bean About Town
    A semi hidden coffee spot in Kaimuki. Bean About Town use beans from Sightglass and Verve. I usually order the cortado or shakerato (which not many places in Hawaii offer). They also have a small savory menu, pastries, and smoothies. They have a tiny parking lot in the back. 3538 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Whole pie! half-Big Red and half-Spinach-Garlic at Boston's Pizza

    Boston's Pizza
    Boston's has been around since we were little kids! They had after school kids specials so we'd take The Bus here for $2 spinach-garlic pizza slices. Those days are long over, but I still come back with friends. The move here is to get a whole pie (the slices never taste as good as the whole pies made to order). Get it with half-Big Red and half-Spinach-Garlic. Don't forget the sodas....I always crave soda when eating pizza. 3506 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Pineapple jam and vanilla streusel brioche at Breadshop

    Breadshop
    Our family visits Breadshop at least once a week. I love the brioche and the hearty loaves. My dad loves the furikake focaccia. And our whole family loves the small sweet and savory snacks like kale and blue cheese flatbread, pineapple jam and vanilla streusel brioche. Also, croissants! 3408 Waialae Ave #104, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Closed - Coco Bloom Kitchen
    It's all about the pork katsu sandwich at Coco Bloom Kitchen. Soft Japanese milk bread, crispy fried katsu, can't go wrong! Coco Bloom is also a good place for salads (which can sometimes be hard to find in Hawaii). The Chopped Salad features 13 ingredients, many of which are local. They're also popular for dessert fruit cream sandwiches (get the strawberry one) and smoothies (also a fan of the strawberry one).

    Korean rice cakes from Hae Dong Sang Hoe

    Hae Dong Sang Hoe
    Hae Dong Sang Hoe is a whole Korean sweet rice cake factory that sells to all the Korean supermarkets and restaurants in town. They don't have a formal retail space here, but you can poke your head in (if the door is open, which it usually is during the day), and nicely ask if they have any extra mochi/rice cakes/dduk for sale. Cash only. Places like this make Hawaii so special. 1213 10th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Salmon and Ikura Cup Sushi, and a mentaiko and egg musubi
    Cup Sushi and Musubi from Higoto

    Higoto Japanese Eatery
    This tiny takeout shop offers a collection of beautiful bentos, classic and fun musubi, and their signature "cup sushi." What's cup sushi? It's basically sushi layered in a cup...the perfect eating at the beach meal ^_^. Go early for the best selection. Full post on Higoto here.

    CLOSED - Kaimuki Superette
    A bright and sunny breakfast and lunch spot. Order at the counter and seat yourself. We usually order the he’e roll (like a lobster roll, but with poached octopus), and the daily changing vegetable sides. For breakfast, I order the brioche French toast (made with brioche from Breadshop just down the block). Don’t forget to get the grilled lemon lemonade...grilling the lemon makes a really neat difference. 3458 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Refreshing smoothie from Leahi Health

    Leahi Health
    Leahi Health is all about the plant-based food. It's my go-to spot for smoothies. They have multiple locations throughout Oahu, but the Kaimuki one is most convenient. I get the Poi Boy (which has kombucha with coconut milk, pineapple, taro, banana, and goji berry), or the Lowenbehold which is basically Poi Boy plus greens, maca, hemp, chia, flax, and spirulina. They also have healthy sandwiches and salads for lunch.  3441 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Little Vessels Donut Co.

    Little Vessels Donut Co.
    Little Vessels Donut Co is a vegan donut stand. They're located in the parking lot right behind The Local General Store and Mud Hen Water. They only open certain days so check Instagram for the most current schedule.

    Their big yeast donuts are fluffy and gorgeous! They're handmade in small batches and the flavors, which range from classic to seasonal, are fun. 3458 Waialae Ave, inside the parking lot at the corner of Waialae Ave and 9th Ave.

    Local I'a storefront.

    Local I'a
    Local I'a is also located right behind The Local General Store and Mud Hen Water. It's next to Little Vessels Donut Co. (The donut stand is literally next to the entrance of Local I'a.)

    Local I'a is open Fridays and Saturdays. They carry an impressive variety of local fish including Kona kanpachi, marlin, tako (octopus), and ono (wahoo). I like using the ono to make ceviche! Offerings change weekly and they sell a mix of fresh and frozen fish. 3458 Waialae Ave, inside the parking lot at the corner of Waialae Ave and 9th Ave.

    Miro Kaimuki
    Miro is a go-to for celebrations and nice dinners! The menu (for both dinner and brunch) is a prix fixe that changes every month. There are optional adds ons which are not to be missed. This includes the housemade sourdough bread and butter, the ahi brioche...and even more amazing, the uni brioche! There's also caviar brioche which is wow, another world ^_^ 3446 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Sourdough Banana Pancake at Mud Hen Water

    Mud Hen Water
    Ed Kenney owns several restaurants and Mud Hen Water is my favorite of the bunch. This restaurant incorporates a ton of Hawaiian ingredients and techniques into the menu, and the result is delicious. At dinner I love Yaki o Pa‘i’ai (paiai* grilled with shoyu and sugar), Chicken Long Rice Croquettes, and He’e Lu’au (a fancy take on squid luau stew). As for brunch? The Sourdough Banana Pancakes might be my favorite pancake in Hawaii. It comes with whipped brown butter...bliss! 3452 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    *Paiai is pounded taro root. Add water to thin paiai out, and that's how you make poi.

    No Name BBQ Sandwich
    A great family run banh mi shop. I always order the classic Vietnamese sandwich complete with thit nguoi / pork belly, cha lua, pate, mayo, cucumbers, sweet onions, pickled carrots and daikon, cilantro, and soy sauce. They bake their own bread and are generous with the fillings. It can get busy. Call your order ahead of time, or be ready for 15-20 minute wait. 3394 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Shioketh wonton noodles.

    Shioketh
    Shioketh​ is a new Singaporean pop-up in Palolo (Palolo is technically a separate neighborhood, but also just a minute drive from Kaimuki). They open Saturdays and Mondays. I like the egg noodles tossed with scallion oil and "secret sauce." It's topped with ground pork, bok choy, and fried wontons. Loved how light and delicate the fried wontons were. (You can ​fry a homemade version​). Pictured in back is the fried chicken rice! Located inside Hapa Market, 1720 Palolo Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Super Pho
    Reliable neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant. Casual, no frills, and always hits the spot. I order the pho dac beit (basically pho with all the meat toppings) and a glass of plum soda.  3538 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Ahi poke from Tamura's

    Tamura’s
    Tamura's is a market divided into three sections: 1) wine, liquor, and beer store, 2) gourmet groceries (with things that are often hard to find in Hawaii like clotted cream for scones), and 3) fresh poke bar. Come for one part or all three. We often stop here before visiting a friend's house, pick up a bottle of wine and ahi poke by the pound. 3496 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    "The George" at The Curb

    The Curb Kaimuki
    A great coffee shop perfect for meeting with friends, or enjoying some alone time. It's got a bustling, cheerful neighborhood vibe (with mix of Kaimuki people and students from nearby University of Hawaii). I like "The George" (double espresso, chocolate, and milk, shaken and served over ice). They also have other neat drinks like Lavender Matcha, Honey Latte....

    Super Bonus: Hana Quon bakes all the food at The Curb, including this incredible wagyu beef hot dog in a delicate laminated roll sprinkled with everything bagel seasoning. It come with a honey mustard dipping sauce.

    Hana Quon chocolate cake at The Curb in Kaimuki.

    She is super popular for pastries and sweets including this glorious 24 layer chocolate cake, hojicha cinnamon rolls, and financiers. They sell out fast so go early and cross your fingers. 3408 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    The Local General Store
    I love The Local General Store! Between the meats, the charcuterie, the sandwiches, and the pastries, I'm here a couple times a week. The quality, the thoughtfulness, the details. Everything about this place is wonderful. And of course, it's all local! Sign up for their email list. This is where they announce weekly "butcher boxes" - order online and pick up on the weekends. They also have hands on butcher classes which sell out fast. 3458 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    (CLOSED November 21, 2020) - town
    town is Kaimuki classic with a mix of both indoor and outdoor seating. Get any of the daily specials (especially if there's fish involved and pasta (think gnocchi and hand cut pastas with pork-porcini ragu). Same owner as Mud Hen Water and Kaimuki Superette. 3435 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Guava Strawberry Cupcake from We Heart Cake Company

    We Heart Cake Company
    Tiny cupcake shop (they also specialize in custom birthday and wedding cakes) that recently moved from downtown Honolulu to Kaimuki. I like to get the Guava Strawberry Cupcake and Chocolate Espresso Cupcake. They have two small tables for sitting inside. 3468 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Waiting in line at W & M Bar-B-Q Burger

    W & M Bar-B-Q Burger
    We prefer teri bugers over hamburgers in Hawaii. What are teri burgers? It's a regular burger but with teriyaki sauce (made from shoyu, sugar, and garlic) mixed into the burger patty. Go-to order: Royal Burger (basically a teri burger with all the toppings), fries, and a soda. 3104 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    XO Restaurant
    Fun and rich and cravable foods. Come with a group to make the most of the menu at XO. There are hearty dishes like adobo fried chicken, foie gras with crispy rice, and always an excellent duck breast entree. Don't miss dessert: ice cream pies all the way. 3434 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    All Kaimuki: Non-Food

    From comic book stores to book stores with an emphasis on locally published books and a bead shop, Kaimuki is rich with one of a kind gems. There places are not to be missed:

    Bead It! Kaimuki
    Into beads and crafting? This is your place. Sign up for jewelry making classes, stock up on beading equipment, and get crafting inspiration. It's a cheerful family run shop (and just two doors down from the Crack Seed Store). 1152 Koko Head Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Inside da Shop bookstore

    da Shop
    A beautiful bookstore with an emphasis on Hawaii writers and locally published books. da Shop opened just a year ago, and is a must-visit in Kaimuki. They carry many harder to find local titles, alongside books from large mainland publishers. Even if you're not planning to buy anything, it's worth visiting to discover the impressive collection of local cookbooks, history books, scary story books (my favorite!), and everything you can imagine. 3565 Harding Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Gecko Books & Comics
    I used to visit Gecko's at least once a week throughout my teen years. They carry the largest selection of comic books in Hawaii (at one point I had the biggest Archie comic collection on the island! I bought a lot of those comic books from Gecko's). I still go back, mainly for nostalgic reasons. It's cool to see a whole new generation of kids geeking out on comics. 1151 12th Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Island Boy
    Island Boy is a thoughtful place and space. It's a lifestyle store that showcases a mix of local and mainland artists, designers, and makers. It's beautiful, but warm and inviting, never intimidating. They carry everything from clothing to bags and flowers to hairclips. They also host lei making classes offsite and pop-ups on the rooftop! Chillest Shave Ice and ajitama musubi from Nami Box is currently available on Sundays. 3464 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    The Public Pet
    A real fun and inviting dog and cat supply store. The Public Pet has everything from raw food to fancy accessories (and all the little extras you didn't you know your pet desired!) This is also a great place to give and get pet gifts. 3422 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816

    Kaimuki: Other Notes

    Kaimuki Parking Options
    Kaimuki has two main paid lots (Propark lot that you can enter from 12th Avenue, and a Municipal Lot you can enter from Koko Head Avenue) and a lot of metered street parking. You might have to circle the paid lots a few times during prime lunch and dinner hours but everyone can find parking in the end. 

    Walking In Kaimuki
    Most of the restaurants and food places on this list are located on Waialae Avenue (or right behind it). You can walk to/from any one of these places to the other. Kaimuki is a fun and walkable area, BUT there is little shade. It's all sun, sun, sun. Kaimuki is hot temperature wise (in comparison, Manoa Valley has lots of shade and breeze). Bring your sunglasses, and perhaps a hat (or visor!) 

    P.S. For other neighborhood dining guides, check out this one to Manoa Valley (just 15 minutes drive from Kaimuki) ^_^

      I love the food at Saigon's on Waialae Ave. Only place where they know my name and my kids names. It's family run and the food is consistent and delicious and very reasonable. I just have to remember they are closed on Mondays. But, they always greet me with a smile and a question about how I'm doing. It adds to a meal to have that interaction. Vermicelli with summer/spring rolls are my favorite order.

      I grew up in Kaimuki on 10th ave. Happy to see some of my favorite spots here. Crack seed store was a must after school. They also have (a secret?) chocolate icee that is to die for. You get an icee and they pour some chocolatey milk on it. Sooo good. Moved away 10 years ago and happy to see many of the best places are still in action. Azteca Mexican restaurant was always a great place to eat. Coffee Talk was a nice place to chill. And just off of Waialae at the end of Kapahulu, Gina’s Korea BBQ is a must.

      Love these neighborhood descriptions. I feel like I'm taking a walk through them. I'm sending your website to some foodie friends who are visiting Maui in a couple months. They are enthusiastically awaiting to read your recs.

      Last time we were in Hawaii, and before the new short-term rental restrictions, we stayed at an AirBNB on 16th Ave. just a bit north of Waialae Ave. I knew about the big-name places, but wish I had this whole list before. Looks like I need to add several things to my already-too-long list of places to eat, I think I'd need a month minimum to get to everything I want at least once. =(
