I got the Honolulu Chicken Classic- and it was very good. The flavor was incredible and the chicken was very tender. The rice was nice and fluffy and sticky. I got the macaroni salad with it and it was pretty good, the macaroni was nice and soft, and the sauce was good but was a tiny bit bland/didn't have too much flavor. The macaroni salad basically tasted like ranch to me, and ended up being lukewarm having been put in a container with warm food. Other than that, the food was delicious.

Really great flavor and perfect portions. I ordered the Kilauea Chicken Classic with Vegetables and Mac Salad. The portion is perfect for me for the price, as I have leftovers to last another meal. I am short, though, so keep that in mind. My husband, who is much taller, does not typically have any leftovers from the classic size.
When you order the custom plate, it already comes with a portion of rice under the meat, so keep that in mind when choosing your 2 sides! The Seasonal Vegetables taste fresh, unlike other fast-casual food options - well-seasoned, lots of flavor, and not soggy at all. Like others have said, the Mac Salad isn't what you'd expect. It's creamy and garlicky - not tangy - but I find it pairs well to balance the sweetness of the meat sauces.
The Kilauea Chicken was not as spicy as I had imagined, but it definitely has more spice than the Molokai Chicken. I'd say Kilauea would maybe qualify as "Medium" spice.
If you're not very tolerant of spicy foods, I'd say don't be afraid of trying the Molokai Chicken if you want to switch it up - it's also delicious and the equivalent of "Mild" spice, in my opinion.
I also ordered the Mango Energy drink and the Guava Nectar. Both are delicious, sweet, and refreshing!
Highly recommend. I'll definitely order again!

I am glad I got it for 50% off as I got the Honolulu chicken that was suppose to have green onions and sesame seeds and it didn't have either. Not sure what kind of chicken I had as it didn't really have any flavor ( they also forgot to send the extra Teriyaki sauce), so the the rice was tasteless. I did like the veggies and the 2 little chunks of pineapple. I thought the portion size was very small. Maybe I am just use to Chinese food where you get a lot for your money. The slider was actually really good and will probably get that next time as a meal.

So I got the Honolulu Chicken - The Big Plate and the Molokai Chicken - Classic and it's like a $5 difference but the portions looks exactly the same so idk what's up with that. I could have just bought the same size for both dishes instead of paying the extra $5 because it was the same amount. So I'm a little bummed and annoyed about that. But the packaging was good and the food was good. Though I did expect Hawaiian style Mac salad which it wasn't (I was born and raised in Hawaii), and the dishes didn't exactly bring back the flavors of home that I expected. But I'm thinking it was the dishes I chose - they aren't necessarily "traditional" dishes that I had growing up. The food was fresh and delicious and I probably would order again, just isn't what I expected. All my kids enjoyed it too, and they're picky eaters!

This was absolutely delicious! My first time trying Hawaiian food and I will definitely be back! I had the Honolulu Chicken with extra protein and it was absolutely scrumptious! Everything was so fresh and the chicken was juicy, it was the perfect portion size! A little more rice would've been nice but it was fantastic!!!! I recommend this to anyone!
