Non sea-food places please.

We're here on Oahu (Hilton Hawaiian Village) and my dad doesn't like sea-food. Anyone know of good places to eat around here? We ate at this place called Pizza Bob's, it was pretty good, cheap mixed drinks too. I'm looking for some resteraunts that are unique to Hawaii.

why the hell are you online in Hawaii?!! :Q

IMHO, ask the locals where they like to eat. The concierge will know of a good place. In all honesty, the best food i had in Hawaii were places that not a lot of tourists went to and they were cheap.

Go to Big Kahuna's Pizza. Good stuff. Also, there is this place near the shore that is just awesome. I forgot the name for it though, since my family and I went.

It's only 9:10am here. I'm going snorkeling with dolphins (leaving 9:45), so I didn't want to go to the ocean for 15 minutes, dry off, shower and then leave.

Do you have a military ID? The Hale Koa has a place inside of it that is awesome. I believe it was called the Koko Bar.

If I show up, do I get free desert? I better. I didn't even know what kind of restaurant you worked at.

Why are you posting Zuggy? Get back to work, or I suppose back isn't right, since you probably haven't been working, have you? :D

For dessert, you absolutely have to make the drive to Haleiwa and get a Matsumoto shaved ice. The "Rainbow" flavor with Azuki Beans and ice cream is incredible.

Sam Choy is good and if you have money, go to Allen Wong. It's a super nice upscale restaurant with extraordinary service. You need to call for reservations tho.

kinda opposite where ur at...capriciossa is a nice, cheap, good italian place. Better than AngeloPietro imho.
also i like BigIsland steak house at the AlohaTowerMktplace...
u can also go to the foodcourt at AlaMoana.
Also some nice non-seafood stuff at SamChoy's.
Theres also a large korean restaurant in RoyalHawaiianShoppingCenter(waikiki beach side) which is pretty good.
Or to eat like the locals, take a cab to Camelia Korean BBQ...all u can eat for cheap! and very good. <--must try once!
Its pretty close to waikiki so cab is not too bad...
or for really local grind, go to Zippys...many of these around...kapahulu, young st.
they serve local/american/chinese/japanese/philipino fair.
