We’ve been going to this location since it was built. Blockbuster Video was across the street on the other side of the freeway. Shell gas station was also there. A little bit of nostalgia.

We lived in the neighborhood so it was a nice stroll to the restaurant. Every Friday evening we had dinner there. The wait to get seated was always prompt.

My favorite was a Wonton Min or Curry Katsu Saimin and my wife loved the Chicken Katsu plate. Dessert was always Pineapple sundae. And coffee to finish.

The Korean Fried Chicken was good but a bit over sauced than other Zippy’s restaurants. Three original chicken is better here.

If you’re in Honolulu and craving comfort food with a local twist, Zippy’s in Kahala is a solid choice. Known for blending American, Asian, and Hawaiian favorites, it’s a casual spot that’s great for a quick and satisfying meal.

In depth review:

I recently stopped by and ordered the Korean Fried Chicken with Chili. The chicken itself was crispy, juicy, and coated in a deliciously sweet and savory glaze. The chili that came with it had good flavor, though there was an issue with the temperature. My portion was a bit too cool, which took away from the overall experience. On the other hand, my best friend’s dish came out with the chili scalding hot—almost too hot to eat. It was as if I got the last bit of a batch that had cooled down, while my friend got the fresh batch. While the flavor of the chili was still great, the inconsistency in temperature was a bit off-putting.

Service was quick, and though the atmosphere is basic, the staff was friendly and efficient. I went around dinner time , so there was no wait.

In addition to the Korean Fried Chicken, Zippy’s menu features a solid variety of comfort food options. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable.

Pros:
• The Korean Fried Chicken is crispy and flavorful with a great glaze.
• The chili adds nice flavor (when it’s at the right temperature).
• Quick service and a convenient location in Kahala.
• Reasonable prices with generous portions.

Cons:
• Inconsistent temperature of the chili (mine was a bit too cool, my friend’s was scalding).
• The atmosphere is simple and can get crowded during peak hours.

Venerable legit place to score late night saimin and won ton min. Chili is also legendary.

Lots of bench seating, and easy parking. There’s a Kahala Sushi pop-up in the corner of the restaurant.

Highly recommended and will be back soon.

For being Kahala Zippys (dine-in), I thought service would be better, but after yesterday, I’m bummed. Food was okay and I loved the atmosphere, but service took almost 15 minutes of sitting down and waiting before water was served. I feel like prior to 2020, service was decent, but never this bad. Shockingly, I would rank Zippy’s Waipahu as having better service than Kahala by 2 stars. Our waitress was super nice and even looked out for us on a deal, but just to get her to show up was a challenge… I’m willing to try again though.

Sushi was great. Salmon skin roll slapped. Perfect rice and a lovely mixture of salty and crunchy. Siam was kind of bland. It’s my first time trying it so I had no expectations but was flavorless. Noodles have a strong egg after taste

I’ve been eating at this particular Zippy’s for over ten years. The food quality has really fallen recently.
I think the hamburger I received for dinner was the worst hamburger I have ever eaten. Burnt black, dry, leathery. Truly awful.

On the plus side, the chili is still great

Still come here for flaky donuts and napples… But they are getting a bit expensive. Same for the hot food, but very nostalgic thus why I keep coming back. Go tos: Korean chicken, chili and rice, wonton min.

Got their chili omelette with white rice, and it’s really nice when it’s hot and fresh. I expected more people in the dining room, especially on a weekday, but I had the whole area to myself.
