We dont have Shake Shack, but we do have Chubbies. This spot has some of the best burgers on the island and dont forget to add the chub fries to your order.

Thyda busses down in her kitchen. This small food truck off the side of whole foods will change your life. I love Mexican food and this is on my top 3 list of Mexican food places.
Thyda's Tacos
Prepare for a packed sandwich from this place. I personally like the Duke!
Sprout Sandwich Shop
Looking at these pictures is making my mouth water. If you're ever in the Ward area and have a sweet tooth, check out Holey Grail. They're absolutely delicious.
Holey Grail Donuts
One of the best Indian food spots on the island. Im pretty predictable, so you know my order has chicken tikka masala and cheese naan.
Kamana Kitchen
If you happen to stay in Waikiki, I would so go to Island Vintage. You can go to the restaurant side and dine in or to the coffee bar and get a quick fix. I just had an acai bowl from here over the weekend and it didnt disappoint.
Island Vintage Coffee
Come here if your in the mood for Chinese food. The pork hash has me in a chokehold, shout out Kea
Chun Wah Kam Noodle Factory
If you manage to catch this food truck please go!!! They aren't open every day and change locations each day they are open. But they're shrimp tacos are actually insane. Im not even joking just get the shrimp tacos bro

This is very cliche and probably on every must do list in Hawaii but i actually do like Leanord's Malasadas. Dough and sugar cant really go wrong honestly
Leonard's Bakery - Malasadas, Pao Doce, Malasada Puffs, Pao ...
If you're looking for poke, make your way to Foodland. I'm sure you've probably already heard about it but im reminding you that it's amazing. They also have so many other food options!

I feel like i could destroy two boxes of pizza by myself and this shop doesn't help make that any better. Black Shamrock Tavern specializes in Jersey style pizza's and i can guarentee you will enjoy it.
Black Shamrock Tavern
Whenever im thinking of eating a salad every once in a blue moon I'll go here. They also have this curry chicken wrap sandwich with mango chutney that is chef's kiss
Aloha Salads
I know that a lot of places have Paris Baguette, but we recently just got one. I love their pastries they're so cute and fun!

Heres a local bakery that isn't everywhere else. AND they have great breakfast if you dine in!
