Zippy's Ewa

"UPDATED: I've been to Zippy's quite a few times since my last review, but it's always for the breakfast plates. We usually order through the app for pick-up and enjoy our breakfast plates on the beach. The orders are on time and I don't think we've gotten an incorrect order yet. My go-to is the bento with rice, eggs, Portuguese sausage, and either bacon or corned beef hash. My new favorite is their chili. A side of their chili with the breakfast bento is *chef's kiss*. Next time, I think I'll try the chili moco. —————- Zippy's Ewa is a fast food chain that specializes in Hawaiian food. You'll find your spam musubis, loco mocos, and saimin. If local isn't your taste, they've also got burgers and chili so I'm sure you can find something here to suit you. The catch is that it's not that good, but you also shouldn't expect it to be. I ordered the fried saimin, which was supposed to come with spam, but it was mainly just noodles. My stomach started feeling weird a few hours later so I'm not sure if it was the Zippy's, something else I ate, or just the result of being over-tired from the weekend. Either way, I think I'm okay with the Zippy's. The only thing I MIGHT order again is the chili. But as for local food or burgers, there are ton's of better options."

"Zippys Ewa is very packed every part of that restaurant is packed ….the drive-through, inside the restaurant. Usually you have to wait for anything you do or order there, like being seated for the restaurant and waiting in line waiting for order your food or picking up your food. Or waiting through the drive-through everything takes about 10 to 20 minutes. Tops .But the food is great. The parking lot is packed also and the service is all right"

"On our way out, we decided to grab some donuts for the road. Their donut holes and Ensemada were so yummy that we just had to have lunch there. They did not disappoint!! I chose the fried noodles with teriyaki beef, and my daughter chose the beef stew. Delicious!!"

"Food is just delicious now as I remember saimin noodles during my childhood in Hawaii. The flavor of the soup you can't forget, it just has that taste you can't get anywhere else. Service is good when it's not too busy but expect to wait a bit during lunch/dinner time. It's like everywhere else and worth it!"

"Great for late night dinner. Rather walk-in, seems like they don’t answer the phone. Be specific with your order. I don’t care for the fried chicken as I used to, now it’s hard & dry. I got the chili Moco ( bed of rice at bottom, one big hamburger patty, scoop of chili covering & topped with 2 eggs w/ Mac salad ) pretty good"
