Grace's Inn

As far as plate lunch spots go...Grace's is near the top of the heap. With most places increasing prices while reducing portions and quality...Grace's has minimized price increases while still maintaining portions and quality. So you can still get a huge volume of food for a decent price. Most plates are good for 2 or 3 meals...or can easily feed 2 people. My go to is the roast pork and teri burger mix...or chicken katsu beef stew mix. So if you want great value and quality...go to Grace's.

5.29.21 Saturday evening. I didn't take any menu pics, because I wasn't there long enough. I called and ordered a chicken katsu plate. I called to place my order, because I ordered pigs feet soup from another restaurant right before I called Grace's Inn. I asked how long, so I could make my way over. The woman on the phone said three minutes. I said to myself, wow that's fast. It took me about 5 minutes to get to location. I walked into restaurant and there were two people in front of me. I got the good ol local plate lunch feel like you get at some of the other older traditional plate lunch restaurants in town. In about a minute I told wo.an I had a pick up. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. She rung me up and I was out of there, and on my way to pick up my dad's pigs feet soup order. Food was plentiful and tasty, just like I expected. Go try it.

Love this place. It's my favorite "I'm starving, but I don't want to spend too much" place to grab something to-go. The food isn't fine dining, so don't expect Michelin star cuisine. But it's good, hole-in-the-wall, local comfort food. Their chicken katsu is my favorite go-to dish. The spaghetti is really good too.

I'll drive from Mililani to grab a plate every once in a while and more often grab lunch during work days here. The food (and memories) are that good. It's a Good old fashioned plate lunch. Price has gone up since my college days (what hasn't in 25 years) but food is still just as good and plentiful. In college, this used to be the "treat yourself when you're starving" place to go. You always got enough "Ono" food to satisfy the college boy bottomless hunger. Now that I can afford it, the food is still great but it's now TWO meals for me. I was very sad when the original Moiliili, then the Aiea branches closed down. I'll keep patronizing this place because it's that good.
