Islander Drive Inn

Decided to give this place another chance since it has been 2 years. MISTAKE!!! You're charging $6.75 for a pathetic fish sandwich?! This thing is the size of a cheeseburger from McD's!!! No lettuce, tomato just a tiny a$$ piece of fish on a tiny a$$ hamburger bun, slathered with nasty "tartar" sauce.

Really good plate lunch options at a decent price. I've grown up on Islander Drive Inn - Salt Lake, so I was excited to have the chance to try their Wahiawa location since the wife and I were in the area. I feel like the Salt Lake location has far more "specials" but nonetheless, the food here still hits the spot. My go-to plate will always be the Honey Garlic Chicken. The mini was more than enough for me, having one scoop rice, one scoop mac salad, and a mountain of crispy, plump, flavorful chicken with that sweet/tangy sauce. The beef stew and burgers are also good for a change, and my wife's fave is the Garlic Shrimp Plate. Inside seating area remains open with a few 4 seater tables. Service was fast and friendly, but the restaurant could use a bit of a deep cleaning. Hope you enjoy! :)

Decent portioned lunch plates at a reasonable price. I ordered the grilled fish which was battered and fried, a bit confusing. It had OK flavors, liked the onion and garlic topping. Lady at the counter was nice, but not very informative about the plates. Didn't really ask about the sides, just gave mac salad. Then found out also had option of toss salad. Side was simple and clean. Recommend looking at the walls and special board prior to ordering as there are more options than what's on the menu. And, ask questions about options.

This place really went downhill. I stopped by on Saturday and encountered the most miserable worker. He was very unpleasant and I could tell he absolutely hated working there. I strongly recommend not visiting this eatery unless you want to experience the worst customer service in the entire city of Wahiawa.

Islander drive-in in Wahiawa has been here over 20 years. The employees are as nice as can be. The restaurant has plenty of seating and is clean. The service is quick and the food is good. It's somewhat off the beaten path if you're visiting, but only a quarter-mile off of Kamehameha highway. If you're looking for home style local food. This is your place.

I work in the area so I frequent this drive-in very often. The hamburger steak and macaroni salad is absolutely fire. It reminds me of the old drive-ins that closed. The food is very tasty and the brown gravy with the hamburger steak is amazing. It's a hit or miss sometimes I get soggy white rice, but it's OK. I prefer more of a flaky rice versus soggy. The macaroni salad is always good. They also have that taste like the old drive-in burgers. And the french fries with gravy reminds me of Makaha drive-in back in the day. Great place depending on what you're ordering. They also take, Iza and MasterCard along with cash. Just know that they charge a percentage if you use a credit or debit card.

Always a hit, craving a lunch plate i go here Every single person we've gotten food for from here always loves it. Food is ready promptly and fresh and delicious. Service is quick and always helpful and accommodating.

Hawaiian Chop Steak I'm Really Disappointed & Paid Over Priced For Basically A Plate of Onions. Thought This Was Suppose to Be A Healthy Choice Plate & Deserves More Veggies Then Onions I Don't Recommend!!! Dare If U Want To Over Pay & Feeling Rich I Dont Even Rate Any Stars For This Dish. But Gotta

I always come here. They have great service Food is excellent. Today's Special pot Roast Pork with Mushrooms. Price is very reasonable .

Islander Drive Inn is located in Wahiawa Shopping Center. It is known to have a lot of local favorites here. They offer a variety of food so it's hard if you don't know what you really want to eat. If you find something you like, it's better to order it. Of course, like anywhere else you go, there's some food you enjoy more than others. That's to be expected! Afterall, sometimes it's hard to please everyone.My favorite from here is the pork chops w/gravy & mushrooms or the homemade hamburger steak. I've never had a problem not enjoying this. Hopefully one day, I will try something different. But for now, I want to chose the sure thing! Don't want to be disappointed.
