Lunch Box Kitchen of Hawaii

Whenever my co-workers plan a lunch, I always recommend Lunch Box Kitchen! This place is busy during lunch. I recommend calling in your order as soon as they open. This is truly a locally owned business. You can see right into the kitchen at the hard working staff making tons of take out orders. (It’s take-out only).They claim to have the best Mochiko Chicken and, although I don’t consider their chicken to be typical mochiko style, the chicken is darn good! And their mac salad could give Zippys a run for their money!Easy access right off the freeway, in Sand Island. Cash only. I’ve never had a hard time finding parking as people are often there to pick and go. Portions for the mini are mini, so trust me and spend a few more bucks for the “regular” that is more than enough for the average person.

Best food around!! We got breakfast one day and lunch another, and we loved it all. The food is fresh and delicious. The prices are great. Troy and Tina are super kind and friendly. When we can get back to Hawaii again, we will be eating here as much as possible lol! Thank you, from your new fish farming friends in Utah.

This place was highly recommended from a friend of mines so I was very anxious to give this place a try. I ordered bento G which came with 2 scoops of white rice, a huge piece of mochicko chicken (which they’re known for) and they cut up in slices, and a few pieces of edamame.The mochicko chicken is by far the best chicken I ever had. It’s tender and juicy and so full of flavor. The best part is that you can choose either spicy or mild and it’s fried to perfection.I also ordered a loco moco. I’ve been on a hunt for the best loco moco here on oahu, and theirs is top-notch! I love that it’s made with a homemade patty. I ordered it with an over easy egg which was also cooked perfectly, where the yolk runs over. Their gravy is light brown and very tasty.I highly recommend this place.

This is my favorite go-to spot for a quick bento pick up. I love that they have pre-made bentos and musubi’s. So it makes picking up food such a breeze. I grabbed a few bentos for several of our employees and they were surprised at the overall amount of food given in each bento and how it filled them up. For the bento that I got, each bento came with a big piece of chicken that they slice up, half piece of a red hot dog, homemade hamburger patty and 3 pods of edamame. All for under 15.00!

This time around I had to quickly get some breakfast for my manI ordered him the deluxe omelette with fried riceI already knew this place was good and I'll always choose this place over the other plate lunch places along this areaCash only & favorably there is an ATM right next door should you not have anyI really believe that the people that own or cook for this place must be trained chefs because the food is always good!I still believe and wanted to emphasize that the fried chicken here is so Ono, the flavor & crispiness is unlike any other place I've tried

This is by far the BEST MOCHICKO CHICKEN EVER!!!!!!! The chicken is tender and soft AND you get to choose between mild or spicy. In the early mornings, they have bento’s pre-made so that it’s easier to grab and go but when they run out, you can always get a fresh one made to order in house. They accept cash only and offer catering and phone orders. This place is location in the industrial area on sand island.I also ordered a hamburger steak plate and I absolutely love that their hamburger patty is homemade. Homemade is always the best way to go. Their patty was soft and juicy and so flavorful. Their mac salad comes with every plate you order and it’s hands down the best mac salad I ever hadGive this place a try!

I really enjoy the mochiko chicken here. Lots of flavor and very crispy/crunchy. Hard to find a better comparison to this and quite honestly maybe there's nothing comparable. The plate lunches are large with generous portions of the chicken and even the smaller bentos will fill you up. Prices are definitely reasonable making this place a bargain. Unfortunately they're open only Monday to Friday and closed weekends. They run on short hours as well 5 AM to 1 PM. So have to get there early! High recommendation from me. You won't be disappointed!

The hot cakes (pancakes) were so yummy, and the mochiko kara-age was still amazing even when it’s cold. We really enjoyed them at our beach picnic. Cash Only!
