Today was my first time coming here... I was in the neighborhood and decided to drop by and try something new. I ended up getting the pork adobo, and it was soooo good and the prices were all very reasonable, especially given the portion size. I will definitely be going back!

Shrimp burger was small but satisfying for a snack at 8pm! Ask for extra crispy fries! ONO(delicious)

The outdoor seating was nice. The food was good but not amazing. The staff were super friendly and patient. They are not knowledgeable on dietary restrictions such as gluten and dairy. The ladies thought rice had gluten and didn't know soy sauce did.

K's drive inn has been around a very long time, long before my time. But the food is timeless. I usually get the loco loco, which in my opinion is the best in town. I highly recommend for an authentically Hilo experience.

Some of my friends know me as "B-U-T-A", which means in Japanese as "PIG". Yeah, I LOVE to eat, as the saying goes, You eat to live. But I live to eat. Always have been. And K's is the kind of place I've always "HANG OUT". I LOVE the old mustard/mayonnaise yellow sauce on the hamburgers, lunchrooms, okazuyas, saimin stands and of course Drive-Inns. And as MANY people know, there has been MANY drive inns in the past, and most of them have since closed. I am ecstatic that we still have places like K's. It's nothing fancy, just good old "solid" grinds. Portions have always been good, taste has always been good, prices have always been good, and selection has always been good. Hard to beat yeah? Whooo.

Classic local style Hawaiian fast food. They'll tell you a thing or two about comfort food.

Excellent fries, crispy but soft in the middle. Pineapple twist cone had excellent flavor that was sweet and tangy. T here chicken katsu is excellent too.

K's is an old school Hawaiian drive in. They got all the classics. I got the Loco Moco and was not disappointed.
