All I can say as a native Hawaiian this place offers authentic local kine Hawaiian food. It is rare to find a Hawaiian restaurant that offers lau lau. I got #19 Lau lau, kalua pork n cabbage w/ mac salad n steamed rice. Everything was so ono! The authentic flavor and the way everything was cooked transported me back home to the island of Oahu, cooking a feast w/ my ohana on a special day. Definitely would like to see huli huli chicken, chicken longrice, and lomilomi salmon on the menu added as options to order. I did get a guava, mango, and lilokoi (passionfruit) offering the taste of the islands fruits. The smoothie was so ono and was my first impression of the restaurant before my food order was ready. The portion of food is well worth the price. It's actually a breath of fresh air to get what you pay for. Mahalo to the Hawaiian Drive Inn staff and management. Next time I come visit please have the haupia and malasadas. Mahalo plenty 🌺🤙🏼
Huge portions for a good price! Owner had great aloha and welcoming vibes for all customers. BBQ Chicken was very moist and flavorful and Katsu was nice and crispy and juicy.

Overall, the food is very consistent here. The chicken teriyaki is always tender. The shrimp could be a little less crunchy but it still good.
My kids love their food.
Great for take out.
