Review Earl - Honolulu

Stephanie Gardener

After passing by a few times and being distracted by the delicious 🤤 aroma I finally decided to go in. I must say, I was not disappointed. The inside was clean and not too busy at the time so I didn’t have to wait too long. The fries were fresh, hit and tasty. The sandwich itself was full of flavor. I did not expect to be taken aback by just how delicious it tasted. I also enjoyed a crisp, refreshing juice Lilikoi Lemonade. They had some unique sauces that really added to the overall flavor which left me feeling pleasantly full. Whenever I get the chance I always like to stop by for a good bite. Definitely recommend!

The Earl double burger is so amazing I've had it several times with visitors. Any of the chicken is breaded perfectly. I've had the hot and the everything chicken sandwiches and can't choose. Waffle fries are also a must. I wish I could try everything. Forget 5 Guys for smash burgers. This is the place.

I tried the 12” Spicy Chicken Club with Jalapeño Ranch Fries and I must say, they both were wonderful. Could’ve used a little more sauce on the sandwich but it was still great. Will definitely return. They offer inside and outside seating but you must have vaccine card.

Edit: gave this place another shot and I’m thankful I did. Ordered the Italian Sub, and the Caesar Chicken wrap. Caesar dressing was completely different than the last time, and most importantly it has parm! Great wrap, could have used less croutons or omitted them. Will ask for that next time! Good on ya EARL. Old review: Fried chicken sandwiches were awesome, but the Caesar salad was a real bummer. Very sparse, commercial pre-made dressing with little flavor, and not even any parm on the salad. All for 16 bucks. Bummer as everything else was good. Make some house dressing, or spruce the commercial stuff up with some garlic and worcestershire sauce at least!

Visiting Hawaii for the first time and had to try this spot out. We got a huge spread to try everyyything!! Each item had so much flavor. I really loved the French Dip!! However, the Turkey Salad Sandwich was my favorite. It was so fresh and had a lot of veggies inside such as tomato, pickle, and lettuce!! So tasty. We also got a burger which was packed with cheese, pickles, lettuce, and tasty bacon as well. The Fries were absolutely delicious as well. I love love love the flavor of the cheese and the chicken bits inside the fries as well😛 This spot has a lot of different choices when it comes to food and every single one of them is so delicious!!! The workers here are wonderful and so helpful!!

One of the best sandwich spots in Honolulu, a big 👍🏽👍🏽. Great staff and service. This place just checks all the important boxes. Their spicy chicken sandwich and unique take on a Cubano is off the charts. Also tried many of their other awesome sandwiches and they always have me craving for more

We got the mushroom swiss burger. It was sooo delicious. The sauce inside was perfect. The bun was soft and light. They take cards and cash for payment.

I had a lobster roll plate special. It was a bit pricy at $28, but they had multiple deals where if you order 3 its $75 and when you order 5 its $110. It was a good amount of lobster for the price. The brown butter sauce paired really well with the lobster. The pasta salad was pleasant and the pickles had a nice acidic bite. I felt the coleslaw was the weakest part of this plate. It felt a bit too rich after having the butteriness with the roll and the creaminess from the pasta. Overall an enjoyable meal, but I think I’ll stick to other things on the menu next time.

BEST SANDWICHES ON OAHU. and the best sandwiches I’ve ever had and I’m not normally a huge sandwich person. Their French dip is INSANE. Already had it twice within the past week. Their po boi chicken sandwich is also unreal. For non-meat eaters or looking for something a little lighter, the fun beet is super fresh and delicious. The lilikoi lemonade is perfect too. It’s not too sweet. The garlic fries were the only downside, they were good but because we can only do take out right now, they got soggy and mushy so I bet they would be better fresh and eaten right away. Can’t recommend this place enough. The staff is friendly and pretty quick service.

Best sandwich place I have ever been to very great quality! I also love all the creativity with ingredients in everything that I had so many different things came into great harmony to create a master piece I loved this place I will definetly come back again and again. It is a must try!

Good sandwich. Even though seating was very limited I could sit at SALT if I bought coffee from one of the cafes (I went to ARVO). I liked most of their sandwiches - the chicken po boy, cubano, French dip, fresh goat (sometimes with added steak). The bread to sandwich ratio was good and the bread tasted so well balanced with a mix of crunchy outside and soft middle. The chicken po boy was a bit salty to my taste (but I like food with very little seasoning) but overall very good.

This place is top notch. I work in town often so I get lost in Kakaako on purpose so I can frequent this place! I’ve tried so many of their sandwiches and have never been disappointed. Also, I own a local junk removal business and my guy love stopping here for lunch. I highly recommend!

To Jacob the reviewer who got me to come in, thank you! We NEED these types of places down west, too bad it doesn't happen. 😭 Ordered the Cubano, it's my absolute favorite sandwich and fries. And when I saw Jacobs review, the first sentence or couple reviewed it, I was sold! You go in and you can see the kitchen and where they prepare their food, which is always very cool, because you can tell how clean everything is. I also love watching people cook, too bad I was busy doing something. I wish I could get a beer at 11am. Too bad I'm not confident enough to do so. Lol The Cubano was so good, it was inhaled. All the flavors were so delicious, the mustard, the meats, the bread was nice and toasted, not the traditional Cubano because it wasn't panini style, but that's ok, the bread was so good. The fries are waffle fries, so crunchy, perfect amount of salt for someone who loves salt, they gave ketchup and napkins togo. You can always eat in or right outside. I would totally come back here, if I lived or worked close by. Which I don't. 😭 Awesome food. Friendly staff, the guy taking my order was really nice, trying to get my name correct, dedicated! If you like sandwiches and not just subway, please make the effort! 🤤

10/10. We have been looking for a good sandwich shop on island for so long!! I ordered the earls cheese steak and my husband ordered the hot honey chicken sandwich both with fries and they were absolutely amazing. Even after a 1 hour drive to the beach the sandwiches were still fresh & the chicken was still crispy! The fries are delicious BUT that house made ketchup was the best I've ever had! Such a good spot!! Plus they're the only place ive found my favorite chips from childhood:)

Our favorite place for sandwiches. This second location just opened so it was not fully staffed and the menu was not a full menu either. Love the brisket, but what makes their sandwiches awesome is the bread they use and the dip. Sooooo good!

I cannot believe a sandwich can be so good. Literally the best italian sub I've eaten in my life. Can't wait to try everything else on the menu with time, lol. Love the specials!
