The Best Plate Lunch
on Oʻahu
Two scoops rice, macaroni salad, and your protein — the definitive Hawaiʻi meal.
Oʻahu is where the plate lunch was born and where it still runs deepest — Kalihi, Kapahulu, and Waipahu each have a dozen joints worth the drive. Expect the classics: two scoop rice, mac salad, and a protein that came off the steam table this morning.
