  Wailua Drive-In is the spot!! I tried three different items from the menu and every single one was a hit. There’s so much good food here that I already know I have to come back next year just to take another swing at their amazing lineup. The chili pepper chicken was straight bussin’, and the vibes were exactly what you want from local island food. A local actually pointed me to this place—and man, he did not miss. The ladies at the front were super friendly, and the cooks in the back really get down. Perfect team, perfect food. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. I’ll be back for sure. 🌺🍽️

  I feel this place is a little overrated. Everything we got was pretty mid, we ordered the Hawaiian plate, katsu curry chicken, and some burgers. The Hawaiian plate was okay, the salmon side had interesting noodles and not much flavor. The katsu curry was okay, the chicken wasn't overcooked or anything just needed more sauce and generally more flavor. Mac salad was a big mushy and mostly tasted of mayonnaise. The burgers weren't very fresh and the sign didn't specify that it came with fries, which were tasteless. I will say that everything was somewhat good value for the amount of food. We also got the brussel sprouts (which was the only vegetable side other than a salad). The brussel sprouts were better than the rest of the things we got. Overall I think this place is popular because everything's edible but definitely not the best food. Its not great but not terrible either.

  First time here. We ordered the Ahí Katsu, Pork Loco moco, fried chicken and French fries. A lot of food and relatively good prices for the island. I had the Loco moco which I inhaled! My husband noticed and told me I could “slow down” 😁. You can tell them just how you like your eggs cooked. I like mine medium well. The gravy was savory and the pork just melted in your mouth along with sticky white rice. Yum! There’s seating for about 20 people inside. Seems like a local fave for take-out too. We’d definitely come back!
