My friends and I really wanted to try local, traditional Hawaiian food. While we understand it might be hard to do, we did feel that this restaurant is closest to traditional Hawaiian food.
Food was tasty and healthy. The desert was simple but excellent. It was exactly what we were looking for. An experience that you cannot find in Waikiki.
I would encourage foodie visiting Honolulu to come here to try this shop's food. Waikiki food is too tailored for the visitor's taste bud.

We're Hawaii regulars and Haili's is a must visit every time. Amazing Kalua pork. Amazing everything and super nice staff.

5 stars only because I can't put 7.
Best Hawaiian food ever in our trip. The owner comes out and tell u about the plates you've chosen. Fresh fish. To be tried squid luau and pastele!

I stumbled upon this restaurant while walking around, and the ambiance of the place drew me in. One can pick out a local family run restaurant by its lack of corporate thrills. Everything had a personal touch. The service was fantastic, they gave great recommendations and took great interest in my food experience. They wanted to share their cultural food. After a full explanation of each food on my plate, “Da big cahuna” They checked in on my numerous times to see what I thought of their food. 6/5 stars

One of the last real Hawaiian food restaurants around. The food is ono. The kind of place that the cook comes out to talk story with whoever ordered ake. Wasn't me! I ordered da Big Kahuna plate and went to town. Side order kulolo. I suffered a royal kanak attack! Was worth the money. Hawaiian food isn't cheap nowadays. The people who make it are still just as lovely.

Ate here often when I lived on Oahu. I come by for a Big Kahuna plate EVERY time I'm back on the island. Great Hawaiian food, and GREAT people that run the place! Always worth a stop 🤙🏽

An actually native owned Hawaiian food place. Searched high and low for local/native places to eat. Don't let the appearance fool you. The food was delicious and comforting. Like it was made for you at home. The daughter of the original owners was who we had the pleasure of talking to and getting to know Halilis history. Would definitely come back.

Tried the pork kalua bowl, but felt that it didn't have much flavor. Came to try Hawaiian food and I'm sure it's pretty authentic, just I guess not for my palette.

Some of the best authentic Hawaiian food I've ever had. Good laulau, adobo, haupia. Everything was amazing. They're so sweet and nice. Only issue is it's a bit slow to get food. But it's totally worth the wait and the food was top tier.

Love the food!! The fried ahi belly was heavenly.
