"While no expert on Hawaiian cuisine one of the best lunches I have had on Oahu in a truly unexpected place. I had the spicy cashew chicken salad and kpig sandwich. I felt that I was eating something actually local prepared with care and the food was amazing. What nature hike has really awesome food, cafe and bar?!? On my food centric visit to Oahu this was a definite highlight and an unexpected bonus of just going to swim at the falls."

"It seems I can no longer visit Waimea Valley without having lunch here after, and I'm not complaining- the food here goes so hard I practically have no choice. Everything I've gotten has been gorgeously vibrant with colorful veggies and hot crispy proteins, and it's just nice to sit and people watch while refueling after volunteering or walking all morning. You can't go wrong with the plate lunches, and the sandwiches have also been killer- I loved the valley veggie one I tried last trip, and their seasoned fries are properly crispy! Will be coming by forsure with every Waimea visit at this rate of deliciousness. FYI there is a kamaʻāina discount but you may have to ask for it."

"I ordered the B.A.L.T and the fries and it was so good!! My husband got the ahi burger and he liked his too! And the scenery is unreal. We didn’t even pay to go through the gardens, you can order food and eat just outside and so beautiful!"

"Located within Waimea Valley, this place has the best fries I have ever had. Hurricane fries for $7. I'm in love with them. They stay crispy even after a couple of hours. I crave them every day. The musubi is only $3 too and it's very good."

"This was such a dumb move it’s not even busy and we are 40 mins with no food. Bob saget. Turns out they didn’t even put our order in the kid at the front desk just left it in a pile. Amazing feel like an idiot for tipping 15%. If you order your food standing up you shouldn’t tip, new rule awful dining experience. Not a vibe should have driven to town for better food silly me. Food couod have been worse but the second you bring it to your plate you get absolutely assaulted by these flys with giant red eyes and little birds"
