A neighborhood spot currently only doing takeout. The food is well priced and quite delicious. Their ribs are sweet and tangy and well spiced. The scallops were a little bit overcooked but fresh and savory with pepper seasoning and mushrooms.
Their service is fantastic. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for some straightforward yummy eats.

This was our very first stop right after checking into our hotel. The food was everything we wanted it to be, and we had high expectations.
Order the scallops, scampi, soba and quesadilla. Nothing disappointed but the scallops and soba were at the next level of flavor

Heard about this place through a travel guide. Was initially skeptical but the food and service were incredible. The no-frills, laid-back atmosphere made it feel like the place was dedicated just to us. Ribs were tender and cooked to perfection. Person I was dining with said the NY steak was one of the best he's ever had. Not even accounting for the low price, it's one of the best places to eat in Honolulu.

Great late night food & service! Definitely exceeded our expectations and it wasn’t too pricey (for Hawaii). The blue steak dish amd this wings were so good!

No frills, all flavor.
Will runs the place day and night, churning out fancy food for take out prices. We liked it so much we came back again a week later. My recommendations? Macnut Mahi is #1 (THE SAUCE🤤), with the quesadilla coming in a close second. Order 20 mins before you get there and it’ll be ready for pickup by the time you arrive👌🏼

Very good experience !
The service is lovely, the food is excellent and affordable for a restaurant near Waikiki.

A hidden gem of Honolulu. No table service and you can bring your own cutlery, plates and alcohol if you want or grab to go, but the food is fantastic and the owner is super nice. Awesome steak for $12! Should be called, "A place to eat well for cheap!" Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu. Mahalo.

I vaguely remember the first time I came here, about 3 years ago. All I could recall was that the food was better than the empty interior would lead you to believe. This place has awesome food, made with great ingredients and it confuses me that it has such slow times. Everyone should try A Place To Eat at least once. If not for the hunger pangs, do it for the fun you'll have messing with people when they ask you where you want to go for diner...

Great tasting food, my chicken wings was undercooked but I ate it anyways I didn't catch salmonella huge plus there, the steak was perfect and well priced. One of the people that shared my meal said the rice tasted like minute rice. 🤙🗿🤙🗿

GREAT tasting food! friendly/helpful staff. We ordered a steak and some Mahimahi pretty late at night, everything tasted fresh and was very flavorful. The food came out super fast! The BEST late night food I've ever had. This place is a bit small but as I found out great things come in small packages. The food tasted like 5 star food but was priced cheap. Definitely a great place to eat!

Came in around closing time. Marie and the chef were so generous and amazing. Haven’t even tried the food but I’ll definitely be back based on service. Keep being awesome!

Tried it on a whim cause it had good ratings and... we loved it!! The service was awesome and super friendly. Food was fabulous! I got the sliders and sweet potatoes fries and my husband got the steak and we loved both. They make all their dressing in house so even I even liked their specialty ketchup (and that's sayin something cause I do not like ketchup).
Very happy we tried out this great hole-in-the wall spot! Just what I love to find

Came to Oahu on vacation and found A Place to Eat! Open late so made a perfect late night stop! The food here is INCREDIBLE and especially for the price. We got steak, scallops, quesadilla, ribs AND dessert!!! Super low key spot that deserves 10 stars. We loved it so much we ate there twice!! Thank you for the great food and service!!

Someone gave it a one star review and I hate them with the fury of a thousand suns. This place deserves more than 5 stars out of 5, and anything less is an atrocity. This is easily the best tasting food I've had in Honolulu and is also the cheapest place I've eaten at. $12 got me the best steak on the island. $11 got me the best ribs on the island.
Devoured the food and, despite being satisfied with the portion sizes, I wanted to order more purely because it was so delicious. The lone employee was friendly, appreciative, and surprisingly fast at pumping out orders.
The best part? We found it completely by accident. After being turned away at Diamond Head due to lack of parking, we punched "Best food please" into the GPS. The GPS returned a result that was approximately 8 minutes away. So on a whim we decided to drive over and see what was at the point. We arrived and found "A Place to Eat".
After finishing our first meal, I asked the chef if they were open tomorrow (Saturday) and was informed that they would not be open until the evening. Needless to say I ordered another steak and the sliders for an evening snack because eating there only once would likely drive me into an unrecoverable depression.
THIS NEEDS TO BE ON EVERYONE'S LIST OF PLACES TO VISIT WHEN ON OAHU. EVERY CURRENT LIST I'VE FOUND IS WOEFULLY MISINFORMED.

This one-man show is amazing. We came in during what he considered a rush and were attended promptly, served fast, and actually had the owner come follow up and see how the food was a few times. Love this place. I recommend the Adobo Sea Scallops. It may look small, but I actually ended up with leftovers. Try the sweet potato fries too!

Delicious food delivered in large portions.
Various choices of classics prepared with unique sauces.
Try the quesadilla, it's out of this world!
Oh and the ribs. And the chicken.
Honestly, just go with your friends and take one of everything. Then go eat by the beach with some Hawaiian juice.
