I met up with one of my best friends for lunch on my recent trip to Hawaii at Nico’s Pier 38. It was on the water in the downtown shipping piers. This is a large restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating and a bar. There is also a sushi bar to get fresh fish and poke. My friend got some sashimi as an appetizer which he approved. For lunch we both got combo plates, he got Hosin BBQ chicken and hamburger steak and I got crispy Orange chicken with chicken katsu. The food was great and the portions were big. There wasn’t any table service, you ordered at the cashier when you arrived and found your own seat. The prices were good for the quality and quantity of food. If your in Hawaii on Oahu looking for a place to eat where locals go I recommend this place.

My husband and I are on vacation in Oahu, and wanted a place with seafood options for dinner. We always joke that we need to “pre-eat” before going to a place for dinner when we’re on vacation because the portions are so small. That was not the case here. We ordered the Poke Nachos, and were surprised by how much poke was on them. My husband ordered the catch of the day, and we were also happy with the portion size of the tuna and the sides. I ordered a soup bowl and the chicken Caesar salad, both great as well. We definitely recommend this place! I have photos of the nachos and the special.

Everyone there was soo nice, great atmosphere. Lotsa tables both inside and out. They had live music too. The bartender was busy but still she was so polite taking and delivering food. And the food, yeaya! I had the pork belly and they gave 4 large pieces. The dressing on my bros salad was so good, they had an extra to go container of it so we took it home and the lady at the front desk was telling us how she grrs it to dip taro Chips in. Would absolutely go again. (Plus it’s near costco )

Nico’s was a nice dinner stop for our large family and friends group. The menu had tons of different options which I would imagine should satisfy most people. Our appetizers were super tasty but unfortunately, I didn’t love my fish entree. Drinks were decent but could have been stronger for sure. Atmosphere was lively with great views from our spot outside.

I’ve been to Nico’s many times over the years. Always come for lunch on my trips to Honolulu. The relaxed atmosphere and quality foot and service is a welcome treat for enjoying. Cool to eat the freshest fish possible with a harbor view. Get the special of the day whatever it is, can’t for wrong. Staff is always friendly and the beer is always cold. Check it out.

Nico’s Pier 38 delivers a casual, authentic seafood experience where freshness is the main strength. The poke bowl is especially good, with clean, well-cut fish and balanced seasoning that lets the quality of the ahi stand out. The ahi steak is another highlight, cooked properly and flavorful without being overcomplicated, making it both satisfying and reliable. Combined with generous portions, reasonable prices, and a relaxed harbor-side atmosphere, it’s an easy place to enjoy solid local seafood without unnecessary flair.

Good experience overall. The food was good but could’ve been better for the price. The atmosphere was nice. We enjoyed the live music. Service could have been a little as we were seldomly checked on, and it wasn’t busy during the time of our visit.

The Food (Market Side):
We skipped the main restaurant line and went to the Fish Market side.
Poke: We tried their pre-made poke. Since it’s right on the pier, it was very fresh and delicious.
Sushi Platter: I learned that they offer amazing sushi trays, but they require at least a 24-hour ahead reservation. I missed out this time, but I will try their sushi tray for sure on my next visit.
Logistics:
Seating: Even if you buy from the market, there is a dining area also, so you don’t have to eat in your car.
Parking: There is plenty of parking in the large lot serving the pier/harbor.
Verdict:
One of the best places on Oahu for fresh seafood. If you want the party platters, just remember to book them a day in advance!

I had an amazing experience here! The short ribs were absolutely delicious, perfectly tender, incredibly savory, and packed with rich flavor in every bite. You can tell they were cooked with care because they practically melted in my mouth.

This place is a solid 10 ! You will NEVER find fresher fish at such a reasonable price anywhere else than at Nico’s. Every bite tastes like it just came out of the ocean, and the quality is consistently outstanding. The staff embodies true aloha—friendly, welcoming, and genuinely making you feel at home. And don’t miss their island specialty cocktails—they’re almost as amazing as the seafood itself! If you love fresh seafood, great drinks, and a true local experience, Nico’s is an absolute must-visit! … but remember, it’s still a well kept secret, Roxy D
