Sam's Kitchen - Honolulu

Absolutely delicious! The spicy garlic shrimp is bursting with flavor! The dine-in atmosphere is very laid-back, but it's definitely worth seeking out this hidden gem away from the crowded areas.

My husband and I ordered online from here after settling into our place in Hawaii. We walked to the restaurant to pick up our food, and it was absolutely amazing! We ordered just one plate with pineapple teriyaki chicken, which came with salad, potato mac, sticky rice, and chicken. After a long day, it was such a delight that we were almost brought to tears by how good it tasted! The man at the counter was very friendly and had a wonderful smile. Thank you so much! Everything was perfect. I even added a picture of the food with my husband’s mouth full, haha!

Verna was incredibly kind and helped me choose a fantastic meal. I will definitely return!

Cheap and good quality. I recommend shrimp with original garlic.

I discovered this place by accident (it’s a tiny little side-street spot years ago and make it a point to grab some shrimp (different sauces make it awesome! and chicken and sometimes steak. But the shrimp is really my fave! I tell friends who come to Waikiki as well as the occasional strangers by the pool. Definitely should visit!
