    This is a review from a first timer. I've heard many good things about this local chain, and I was looking forward to trying a few items, especially the famous chili. Some of my family members have been to Zippy's before, and they enjoy coming here when on vacation. We had a big family lunch party, so we ordered a bunch of items. I got to try the Chili Moco, a bowl of chili (with beans), and my main order was the Saimin. After trying the chili with both beans and no beans, I prefer the no-bean chili. The saimin was delicious, but average. If you're in the mood for soup or noodles, this would satisfy. The lilikoi drink was also refreshing and sweet. For dessert, we shared two popular items, the Haupia Cake and Chocolate Pudding. Both were very satisfying and ended the meal perfectly. The Haupia cake was not overly sweet, and it was moist and light. The staff seemed overwhelmed, but they still got most of our orders out quickly and maintained a friendly and attentive vibe throughout the meal. There's a quick-service counter for takeout and a spacious dine-in area to enjoy your meal inside. Overall. It was a pleasant first experience, and I am hoping to dine in again in the future.

    Everything you would expect from a local diner. Friendly staff, delicious food, and generous portions. We had the mini loco moco, chili rice, saimen, and salmon katsu. Nobody could finish their food. Sadly, we had no room left for their famous desserts.

    It's the fastest service I've ever experienced at a sit down restaurant. Granted, it was a weekday, but we walked right in and were seated quickly. We reviewed the menu for about 5 minutes and ordered. And then, in about 5 minutes or less, our plates of food came to our table. I was astonished. We ordered the meat lover's plate which had bacon, spam, portuguese sausage and corned beef with a choice of white, brown or fried rice with eggs cooked to order.

    The service was absolutely awesome tonight! The waitress we had blew me away! The reason is because she remembered all 7 of our orders. Excellent memory. As a service industry worker from years ago her ability to remember each person's order with all the changes plus what we drank is stunning! Our food was also on point! Well done to the staff @ Zippys Kapolei!

    Chili moco is the way to go! Ube ensaymada was perfect to share for dessert. Typical Zippy’s. Orange bang drink was good, too!
