Helena's Hawaiian Food

RestaurantKalihi, ~15 min from WaikikiLocal FavCasual

A James Beard Award-winning institution serving authentic Hawaiian plate lunch since 1946. The pipikaula short ribs, laulau, and poi are legendary. The no-frills dining room and generous portions keep locals coming back for generations.

Tip: Cash only. Arrive before 11:30 AM to beat the lunch rush — they close at 7:30 PM and sell out of popular items early.
