Best of the best. This chef is completely responsible for putting pork back on Honolulu's dining scene. I can't get enough. Take the bus ($2.50, 30 minutes) and you will live in pork belly heaven...

When you just want a steak, friendly service, and a salad bar. Good service and yes this is where locals go. Live music too. Definitely not as expensive as the high end steak houses. And yes, just two blocks away.

This is not only good food but a restaurant committed to supporting local agriculture. Town is located in Kaimuki along with a bunch of hip and cutting edge small businesses who all deliver great food and support local farmers. If you do go here, look for art that resembles the night light above the couch - it's the same local artist!

The only place for organic, non-gmo, and local foods. Crowded but if you wanna check it out maybe on your way back from Sandy Beach/East Side it is located at Kahala Mall - a much smaller and less hectic mall than Ala Moana. Thursdays - burger and beer is on special - and it's good!
