You guys hit the jackpot with Garden Island Cafe! Very good value! Hawaiian BBQ House is also good. In fact. that whole shopping plaza can be considered cheap eats! There's another cheap eats place in Don Quijote: Oh My Grill! Breakfast for under $10, as well as NY steak and chicken katsu for under $10! They have three locations, the other two being Pearl Kai and McCully SC. Waipahu DQ is scheduled to be demolished to make way for rail housing, but a replacement store in Kapolei is getting ready to open. Hopefully OMG will be there, too!
OMG, that looked so ONO! I'm watching this at 11pm at night and craving mochiko chicken, spicy garlic pork, and chicken cutlet. Oh yeah, and that soft serve! 😋Thanks for sharing these "cheap eats" (even though I still remember when a plate lunch used to be 5 bucks! 🤣 ) and especially for highlighting local businesses.
I've followed Garden Island Cafe's weekly specials on Facebook for sometime now and have wanted to try it, thanks for giving this one a review! Will be visiting Honolulu in a week and this is on my list of places I want to go! Yummo Amanda & Felix!!
Happy Monday Foodie Ohana! Gotta love the cheap eats. I need some good mochiko chicken in my life. I haven’t been able to try some legit one where I live. Katsu with gravy? What?! I need to go back to Hawai’i. Love you guys! 🤙🏽❤️🍗🌴
You guys make me crave all these delicious foods ❤ Always on point how you both describe everything 😊 I’m glad you take us with you so we get to see those beautiful places
Garden Island Cafe is so good. Had the lunch specials last week Kau Yuk and Beef Chow Fun was so good, so much too was enough to eat lunch & dinner for 2 people
Both Felix and Amanda really make the viewer hungry to eat those plates, especially late at night before bedtime, making us wish we had that item now. Good video. I hope one day, you both try Gina's in Kapolei by Foodland. My wife loves their Spicy Saba plate. It's not the cheapest, but it's good and massive.
Aloha, Amanda & Felix...Garden Island Cafe is the spot for massive plate lunches. I have had them & so much food! Sure get your monies worth. I wanna try those Crab Rangoon's. Man, they were loaded & huge. I never had them from that restaurant. When Felix held it up, did you see the inside of that crab filling? Bombucha LOL! I really got to try that thank you for sharing the video.
That’s where we found out about the place in Manoa. But we still drove to Waipahu to get our favorite salt and pepper pork chop. We still do. It’s the best. Yana is the owners wife name. So friendly. I always see the lower income patrons at Garden Isle probably because of the cheap eats but I think the owners give them good deals and takes care of them.
Hi Amanda and Felix, the Island Garden Cafe looks ono kind grindz, big portion of food for your kala. Got to try this place out to when I get back home. I tried hawaiian BBQ, it was also good. Thanks again for sharing and taking me along on your adventure. Every time you show the local food I get more hungry, lol. Going to Poland in 2 dayz with my army unit for support in Ukraine. Hopefully I can watch it there. Sending Love and Aloha for Texas. Ahui Hou Malama Pono
I used to live very close to the Hawaiian BBQ House literally a 5 minute walk from Leolua St during the 90's and I'd walk to Zippy's too, there used to be a bar and I think a Chinese restaurant and a convenient store.
They filmed the episode btwn 2/5-2/11. The items they had were specials for that week. Garlic fish plate will be at tegular price if you go today, Tuesday.. still, a reasonable price. Believe the owners told me long ago that the fish used is saba.
Hi guys Would you guys consider checking out if restaurants offer gluten free or allergy options at restaurants ? I have been diagnosed with celiacs, gluten allergy , and last time in Oahu, not many options outside of resort. That we could find anyway.
You both recently lost a lot of weight. How do you both stay slim while eating all those rich (and tasty) foods? I gain a few pounds after just watching your videos! Great job on providing us with useful tips, my family and I hope to see you both when we will visit in October.

Thank you! Very helpful food reviews.

We love our crab Rangoon! Dangerously addicting! 🤤
Garden Island Cafe used to be located in Manoa near my workplace and I miss it dearly...
Wow didn't know that!
@@AmandaFelixEats where Off the Hook is now occupying the space, Garden Island Cafe re-started at Waipahu location on April 1, 2018.
That’s where we found out about the place in Manoa. But we still drove to Waipahu to get our favorite salt and pepper pork chop. We still do. It’s the best. Yana is the owners wife name. So friendly. I always see the lower income patrons at Garden Isle probably because of the cheap eats but I think the owners give them good deals and takes care of them.
@@Noeau whoa? "lower income" patrons = judging by how? their dress? speaking? how they act? Like no "lower income patrons" in Manoa?
I’ve watched all your videos already. Could you please recommend the most authentic sushi spot?
try Mitch's Fish Market and Sushi Bar in the Mapunapuna district. 4.3 starts out of 5 on Yelp with 1292 reviews. Pricey though.
@@hawaiiguy1 awesome thanks I will give it a shot and let you know.

Mahalo for your support and services! 🙏🤙

Try waimalu chop Sui.
Crispy gaugi (HUGE) and the ginger fish! Winners.
Aloha Foodie Ohana 😋
Aloha Walt 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
@@AmandaFelixEats What's good fam!
That was a lot of delicious bang for your buck. Thanks for the recommendations. 😋👍
Any time! Mahalo for watching! 🤙
I really like hearing places to eat in Oahu
I know you shouted out CM Chicken, but I heard they closed down and I’m sad. I loved that place, esp their gizzards!
Delicious cheap eats. Garden Island Cafe is legit. Rajah Dat is definitely on my list....once it warms up a bit. I can't wait.
Love the local stores that support other locals! 👍they had so much other desserts too!
I am going for the garlic fish tomorrow! Yumz.
🤤🤤
They filmed the episode btwn 2/5-2/11. The items they had were specials for that week. Garlic fish plate will be at tegular price if you go today, Tuesday.. still, a reasonable price. Believe the owners told me long ago that the fish used is saba.
Love the vids! I’m on team two scoops of rice no mac 😂
You guys are the model couple of Hawaii.love spirit reflects even more since your marriage 👍
Mahalo Jared! 🤙
Thank you we are coming to oahubin July.
Heard good things about Garden Island Cafe. Had a party catered from there and their Chinese food was pretty good. Never tried the plate lunches.
It was our first time trying them and we enjoyed it! 👍
Garden also has the best tasting Deep Fried Chicken Skins!
Be definitely trying those spots!!👍🏽…
Check them out! 🤙
Egg yolks don't make the Mac salad tart. It's most likely yellow mustard.
Hi guys
Would you guys consider checking out if restaurants offer gluten free or allergy options at restaurants ? I have been diagnosed with celiacs, gluten allergy , and last time in Oahu, not many options outside of resort. That we could find anyway.
You both recently lost a lot of weight. How do you both stay slim while eating all those rich (and tasty) foods? I gain a few pounds after just watching your videos! Great job on providing us with useful tips, my family and I hope to see you both when we will visit in October.
We diet on our non filming days! 👍Mahalo! 🤙
Wow! So jealous😮
You guys should've tried Garden Islands fried chicken. More better than Zippys IMHO
Good to know! We're getting that next time! 🤙
ok, I bought it today @ $11.95... imho, zippy's fried chicken hits better !
I lived in Hawaii for 4 years, I lived the food at the mom and pop restaurants...
Dang, that fish looked so good! What kind of fish was it?
We didn't ask, but it was delicious!
Brah, headed to airport now!!! LOL!
😂😂👍
Nothing like that here in New Jersey😢
panda panda panda
🐼🐼🐼
SOLD!!!!!!!!!! Take my $$$ now! hahah 🍍🤙🤙
2/20/2024 …on the edge of 50k‼️
🤙🏽
Let's get it! 🙌
Apparently on Yelp, CM chicken and Hawaiian BBQ House are closed, which made me very sad
small shrimp no need skin peeling sir
Who makes the best mochiko chicken on oahu that's the question 🤙🏾
Waikane Store... they pan fry it (not deep fried) along with selling their famous maki sushi rolls.
Sounds like an episode idea! 👍
I thought my eyes had issues, but it was your camera couldn't focus 😆
Hey you guys look too skinny. Keep up the good work on the food n your health. Say hello to the puppy
