Lahaina Chicken

Where at the Honolulu airport can one meal feed two starving adults? .We had gotten up at 530am to catch a 730am Uber to San Francisco Airport for a 945am flight to Honolulu. Arrived at 145pm Honolulu time or 345pm California time having had only a breakfast bowl on Alaska Airlines. Two starving adults. Line at the Lahaina chicken at Honolulu airport. Needed to keep my blood sugar from spiking, so no corn, no white rice, no mashed potatoes, and no fried chicken. Ordered the $18.99 roast pork combo, with green beans, peas-carrots, and salad, with ranch dressing, for the wife and I.Service is immediate, as all vegetables sitting in vats of hot water, with the meat on the cutting board. You go through a line at the counter, picking out your food as you go. No table service. The green beans were tasteless, and on the mushy side, sitting too long in the hot water vat, and needed some salt. Cooked Green Giant canned green beans would have been an improvement.The peas-carrots were decent, temperature hot, firm and tasty. Salad was fresh and not wilted. The pork was warm, tender, tasty and delicious, with minimal grist and minimal fat. About the same price as the Ala Moana branch of Lahaina Chicken, so minimal airport surcharge.Didn't order any rotisserie chicken as we would be catching a 345pm flight to Lihue Kauai, picking up our rental car by 545pm, stopping by for a 48 oz $4.99 Costco chicken at around 615pm, before arriving at our timeshare in Poipu Kauai to eat at 7pm, or 9pm California time. The Longest Day.

If you're passing through Terminal 2 at Oahu Airport, do yourself a favor and stop by Lahaina Chicken Company! This place turned our airport layover into a mini dining adventure!The food? Delicious! We tried their roasted chicken, and it was juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Pair it with their sides--definitely get the mac salad! They serve up generous portions that leave you satisfied but not too heavy before a flight.Yes, it's airport-priced , but it won't break the bank, especially considering the quality. Way better than typical airport fare! The staff was friendly, service was quick, and the whole experience left us happy and ready for the next leg of our journey. Mahalo, Lahaina Chicken Company!

I was super hungry when I had a layover in Hawaii. I walked around the whole airport looking for something delicious to eat. I was really happy. I found this place. I haven't been to Hawaii yet. This will be the closest food to get to comfort food in this airport.I actually didn't get the chicken, I got the roasted pork. I do not regret it. I didn't get to finish it on my long flight to Guam but boy I microwave it in my hotel room and it was still really soft and delicious when I go to Hawaii, I'm going to definitely eat this food Again.

Food options are very limited at the airport. Therefore we try to hold our expectations to a lower standard with the few options. We decided to give Lahaina Chicken a try.They serve breakfast until 9:30am. Then after that it changes to their lunch menu which typically consists of your choice of protein and choice of 3 sides.The employees are not the warmest of bunches. When we had requested for macaroni salad as one of our sides, they shut us down and said there's no Mac and cheese. Please pay attention before rudely correcting us, staff are no listening to us order by assuming we said Macaroni and cheese when we actually ordered the macaroni salad. The roast pork was surprisingly delicious for airport food. However the mashed potatoes and gravy were bland. Its taste was similar to that of powdered mash with watered down gravy.

Not fancy at all. No variety. If you want roast chicken or roast pork. It's ok. If you are hungry, get some meats here. Cafeteria style.

Not the best chicken we've ever tried, but it's tasty, the portions are large, and the price is fair (as far as airport prices are concerned). While we don't try it, there did appear to be more on display for purchase than what was listed in the menu--to include meat options that didn't appear to be chicken. The sides (e.g., mashed potatoes, white rice, corn, and green beans) are rather basic, but the format of picking three of the available sides and then one's protein ensures that the line moves quickly. There is a decent sized seating area (~50 people) behind the ordering area that is shared with the local market and Starbucks. I ordered the mushroom chicken (a quarter of moist chicken with bones cooked in some type of "cream of mushroom" gravy).

Big portions for me and will definitely fill you up! I got the fried chicken and asked for the mushroom sauce over it with a side mashed potatoes with brown gravy, side corn, and side vegetables. For airport food it is good. 4 star because it's the airport, seating is limited, it gets busy and crowded, but they help you fast.

Was at the airport waiting and nothing looked good. At 9:30am the chicken came out. Tried the mushroom chicken mash green beans and slaw. Everything was ok green beans needed some salt. Had no taste. Expensive but everything at the airport is but I had to get something for my long flight

Before my 12:00 p.m. flight, I stopped by Lahaina Chicken right next to my gate to pick up some food to go. I considered getting the mixed combo plate which allows you to select two different meats, but the prime rib under the heat lamp looked extremely dry so I ultimately went with a three piece chicken plate.I like that you are able to select either light meat or dark meat for your chicken pieces. I opted for dark and got two drumsticks and a thigh piece. I was lucky with my timing and ended up ordering right as a fresh batch of chicken was brought out.The chicken here is delicious! The inside is super juicy and the outside is light, crunchy, not over salted, nor oily tasting. Hours later on my flight, I did not feel thirsty, something I often feel after eating greasy, salty fried chicken.My entree came with two sides and a carb, so I got the mashed potatoes with gravy along with mixed steamed veggies and mac salad. The steamed veggies and the mashed potatoes were nothing special. The mac salad unfortunately had too much dressing and tasted a bit soggy.While the sides were a flop, the chicken is good enough for me to recommend stopping by for a bite.

Bought a plate lunch here while waiting for flight, One of the best meals we had on the island. Airport food for the win! Fried chicken tender and delicious and one meal includes 2 generous portions of white meat with 3 sides. Fresh cooked green beans and mashed potatoes w coleslaw, all nicely seasoned. Worth picking up this meal coming or going through the Southwest E terminal!
