Ok. So I'm not fish taco guy and we just flew in from Seattle where we ate amazing seafood. Our first day here we decided to walk 5 miles to Diamond Head only to find the climbing trail closed for repair. On the way back we saw this little place and thought fish tacos sounded fun. After one bite on the cagun ono fish taco I could've cared less about missing the view from Diamond Head. If you are on the island don't miss a chance to have a bit of heaven at this place. Back at the hotel I googled up reviews and found that our experience was not a fluke. The SSG folks do a fantastic job in a quirky little place with great attitude and food the will make your taste buds smile. I'm sorry we have to leave shortly. Great job guys!

This is our GO TO fish taco place after we watch the sunset. I've always loved the tacos but recently started ordering the SSG Salad with either chicken or kalbi beef. The dressing is the house aioli. Really, really yummy!

Great place! Awesome food! The wait is totally worth it! We just finished hiking Diamond Head and based off of recommendations we decided to hit up this local spot. Highly recommend it too! Thank you South Shore Grill! �
Great environment and atmosphere and the food is just deliciousness! Their burgers are great and the tacos are pretty dang good too! Definitely recommend this place for good food and easy vibes!
Love this place. A hole in the wall taco place that is everything you love about small local comfort food.
Best fish and chicken tacos I have ever had. The aioli sauce ��. Was definitely worth the trip. The only downside is that now I can’t eat the fish tacos back home because they don’t compare. � � ���
A must when in the area. I just happened upon this place during my daily walk near Diamond Head and the welcoming exterior called me in. They have everything from tacos to burgers and fries to cookies, guaranteed you will leave satisfied. Their aioli sauce is to DIE for! Reasonably priced for the amount and quality of the food! Move over Five Guys..South Shore Grill is in the house!
We found South Shore Grill after a day on Waikiki beach and I am so glad we did! We had the Ono taco plate and they were some of the best fish tacos we've tried. The owner took our order and was extremely pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed the food so much we came back before our flight home the next day!
Excellent food! My wife had the fish tacos and I had the mix food plate. Everything was great and it was a LOT of food...prices were very reasonable as well..best food so far in Honolulu.
Great food!! We stumbled across this little slice of heaven and went back the next day because our son loved it so much. Highly recommend the fish tacos. Super yummy.
I like to consider myself a fish taco expert. This fish taco rivals all the fish tacos I have ever had in Austin,Texas or in Cape Cod. This includes the lobster taco from Quicks Hole in Falmouth MA which is a 5 star in itself. Do not miss this place while you are on the island. You should not go through life without trying one of their fish tacos!
Literally the best fish tacos in Honolulu and beyond! I am completely and totally addicted! GO here, get tacos, have an amazing life! �
Best fish burrito and tacos I’ve ever had! Best place I’ve eaten our whole trip here. Been here 4 times this week!! Love it!
Couldn't get enough of the Ono fish tacos and tuna mac when I lived on island! Now, I just have to settle with daydreaming about having more. 😢 Do you send care packages to the mainland? 😉
I haven't been to South Shore Grill in over a year. The renovations are great and the food was delicious. The garlic fries were crispy, down to the last bite, and the boneless kalbi was so filling, I could only eat half. My friend had the kalbi taco plate, which was also super yummy. The tacos were overflowing with meat and slaw. Why didn't I come back sooner? I won't make that mistake again!
Can’t say enuff about SSG ! During our week visit came here four times , burritos , tacos and the Blue Hole Burger is the sh.....!
Nice local feel yet don’t make you feel like a tourist.
I highly recommend this place to anyone hitting the Waikiki area.
Best food I have had on this island so far. Guy at the register last night was super helpful and really nice!!
The tacos are indeed awesome! I had one Ono fish and one Steak taco with Cajun fries and tuna Mac. Loved it all. The staff was very friendly. It is a smaller place seating wise but definitely enough room. Worth visiting.
I love this place! I’ll start at my hotel, do Diamond Head and get some tacos as a reward.
These is just a great plate lunch place. Grab a Mexican coke and a plate lunch and enjoy. The best part: there’s a plate to try it all!! The tacos are my favorite but the chicken is also very good.
Very good fish tacos ! The ono was very tender and seasoned perfectly. It was juicy and melted in your mouth . The place was very tiny with very few chairs / tables. The person who took our order was very friendly and nice. Prices average.
Delicious food in an unassuming venue. The fish tacos were amazing and so were the pork and chicken plates. Not much dine-in space or anything approaching a view, but if you're looking for good food then this is the right stop.
Super understated nook, but amazing plates. I ordered the Kalbi, it was so well-marinated and tender. I would be remiss if I did not mention the sides-- the coleslaw was crisp and vinegar-y (heads up if you prefer mayo-based!) And the macaroni salad was AMAZING.
Service and vibe was low-key but friendly.
A must in Hawaii!!! I swear by the fish tacos! Hands down best taco in the world and I travel! We came back jus to eat the fish tacos!!!!! The aioli sauce hits!!!! And the best Mac salad ever!!!!!! I love it here, they treat us like family. Aloha, mahalo 🤙🏽
This place is great. My only suggestion would be to hire someone to make fresh tortillas. This was a taco with A+ filling on an F grade stale walmart tortilla. Still an amazing place so I'm giving 5 stars. Living in AZ, I'm spoiled with fresh handmade tortillas. That would really pair well with these already great insides.
One of the greatest experiences I’ve ever had the food was off the charts, staff was very friendly and helpful when it came to choosing what we wanted. Definitely worth making your way down to south shore grill you won’t regret it! Got 2 fish tacos, 2 shrimp tacos, and 2 Cajun chicken tacos, and chips and salsa that were WAAAYYYY better than expected!
One of my favorite places to eat in Oahu! No frills surf shack style place with delicious food. Their fish tacos are amazing and the plate meals have generous portions at a decent price. Super fast service with very friendly staff. Enjoy!
The fish taco is clearly a standout here. Wish there was something to give the fish some pop though. Shrimp taco was okay. Steak had nice flavour but was tough for my liking.
