Amazing experience. The service was excellent—Oki personally greeted us, gave great recommendations, and explained the ingredients in detail. You can really tell she cares about the food and the experience. I honestly didn’t think food in Hawaii was all that until I ate here. This place completely changed my mind. Highly recommend. Hello from NYC!

The restaurant offers delicious food with prompt service. It was a pleasure speaking with the owner, Barbara Oki, who warmly shared her recommendations. A truly delightful and welcoming host.
Conveniently located in a mall, it provides ample parking and covered seating.

Barbara Oki really does make the best local Hawaiian food out there. I stopped here after a hike with a ravishing hunger and was delighted to have one of the best meals of my life. I had the Neals chicken and it was delicious. The owner is also such a delight to talk to and has wonderful local advice. If you don’t go to this place, you are missing out.

Friendly service and absolutely delicious food. Our kalua pork and cabbage meal was outstanding — the pork was incredibly tender and extremely juicy. It was so yummy that we had to come back a second day just to try another dish. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!

I rarely give 5 stars these days, but these guys earned it. We were going to get another set to go, but sadly we were on our way to other places and didn’t want it left in the car.
Ngl the pictures and presentation of the food had me anticipating disappointment, but eating with eys generally leads to disappointment anyway.
The gravy on the #11 sweet and sour pork was THE most flavorful gravy I’ve ever tasted.
The pork in the leaf was boisterous with flavor.
And I wasn’t adventurous enough to order Pancit, but my sis did and it’s a little lighter than Ramen, but more balanced in flavor.

Warm welcome, prompt serve. Large portions. I got the Fried rice breakfast, eggs over easy.. it came with two meat choices. I picked bacon for both. Also ordered her famous pancakes. I’ve come to Oki Diner over the years for these pancakes since high-school. Twenty plus years later they’re still the best! Be sure to buy some coconut syrup or Japanese pretzels to take home Mahalo for a great breakfast

The lunch special is a great deal. I got the Japanese curry and it was delicious. The service was good, too. The only caveat is that this is in the middle of a somewhat rundown mall. It is not a great atmosphere, at least during the week when I went.

I had the chicken katsu smaller size, was pretty good and came with like mayo noodles side, also good.
I wished that the katsu came with a different sauce and not just ketchup. It kind of wasn’t my fave for this meal.
Lady was very nice and gave recommendations.

Very solid big breakfast spot. Outdoor eating with generous portions. Great quality food. Bacon, Portuguese sausage and sausage links were so good. My new favorite homestyle breakfast option.

Love the lechon! Crunchy bbq crispy pork belly with onion & tomato! Filipino specialty that I felt in love from Elena in Oahu.. of course not as good but not bad for Kauai.. was shock that the person taking the order ask for tip for a take out. 2 times repeatedly! Sorry, for taking an order for take out?? I am a tourist but not stupid! That was such a rude request. Made me feel so uncomfortable ! If I did but ordered already, I would have leave. It is the principal..
