M & N

The Filipino Aunties here are so warm and friendly. This is a mom-and-pop-run restaurant. The dishes here are authentic, just like eating at home. The menu changes daily, depending on what is fresh and available.This is a no-frills restaurant, just good eating in the heart of Kalihi.

Lit the owner was very accommodating and saving me the last nine pieces of Tyrone, which is a Filipino fried banana in a Filo like wrap called Olympia rapper. She makes it the right way where it's not sealed on the end and it has breast sugar on top pictured below.

M&N Filipino Fast Food Restaurant in Kalihi is definitely one the most underrated Filipino Fast Food Restaurants in Hawaii. I just love the Old School feel of this place. Feels like you're at a Karenderia in the Philippines because of the nostalgia here. They have a variety of Filipino Food Selections here and what I love about this place is that their Menu Selections change each and every day. I also love the fact that they have these Amazing treats as well like Empanada's and Sliced Green Mangoes with Alamang and other Filipino Goodies sitting on a tiny table in front of your menu items that you choose from.The service here is always friendly and love the family atmosphere especially when you see the Nana in the restaurant prepping up the veggies. This is my kind of restaurant that makes me feel at home. Their style of cooking reminds me of my Daddy's Cooking.I will say that this isn't your typical Filipino Restaurant. They have a lot of hardcore Filipino Food Dishes that you might find very interesting but that's the beauty of this place. I had the Fried Chicken,Pinakbet and Chicken Adobo Mix Plate with One Piece Shanghai Lumpia with all rice and it really hit the spot. It also comes with these delicious Pickled Vegetables that have a Vinegary Kick to it which gives it a nice balance to the oiliness of the Filipino Food.Definitely give this place a try everyone

So elated that they just opened and had front parking. It was meant to be!!! Service is great, too. Asked for a sample of pinapaitan bc I hate the ones that doesn't have enough papait. But m&n had the right amount of it, not for everyone that can't handle it. But it's so good!!!

This is the place to go for that authentic Ilocano home cooked food! Beef Lauya, Pinakbet, Fried chicken, torta talong with garlic rice and longonisa are a few of my favorites when coming here. Prices are decent, service is always friendly but parking is very scarce. I come every week for myself or to buy my parents brunch., that is how much I love this place. Highly recommend.

Best authentic Ilocano foods. Try their IGADO. The best one on the menu although other items on the menus also good too but their Igado is my favorite especially with a lot of liver.

M & N Filipino Restaurant located on North King street this is a very small restaurant next to Tamashiro Market and basically no parking lot everything is street meter parking except there is only one parking space in-front of the restaurant that has no meter.Inside is very small maybe 10 customers seating, it's a Old fashion family restaurant with local home cooking if you are not one that knows Filipino food you will be like me a stick with the normal Lechon Kawali which was very good they informed me it would take 5 mins but it was worth it because it came out hot and crispy, it was not salty and the sauce they had was different but very good! I added some fish sauce with the sauce and it was prefect.My wife tried the other dishes and she really enjoyed the Papaya chicken & Pig feet soup and the Inado she was enjoying it until the bottom sitting in the sauce was a little bit to salty for her.The cashier and waitress was very pleasant and nice.

Love the great food. All aunties and especially Manang Marilynn showed my family and I great hospitality. We were a family of 11 and we all ordered everything on the menu. From Lechon Kawali to ice candy. Everything was sarap (delicious ) From when we first arrived we weren't sure if we could all fit due to little space but they made it happen with more space as other customers came to dine in as well. Aunties were very attentive to our needs. Since it was such a warm visit to Hawaii we needed water. Aunties offered to fill all our water flasks with cold iced water, that's a plus on my books! I would definitely return to this restaurant in the future for more authentic, healthy portions! Food Portions Hospitality Space Variety of main dishes Variety of drinks Variety of desserts

Have your fill of Ilocano home style cooking at M&N near Tamashiro Market along King Street. Flavorful Ilocos foods of adobo, dinengdeng, pinakbet, chicken marungay, sweet or vinegar longanisa and more! Not oily, salty or overcooked but just right! Owners are very friendly and helpful. Dine in for a step back in time (70's vibe), place (Laoag provinicial neighborhood) and warp into the Philippines for a delicious meal.Beware of 3% surcharge on credit card payments AND limited street parking. 2 & 3 choice plates are as high as $16 (outdated online pricing).

Amazing food with great taste and afoorable price. Truly an unexpected experience buying out of "hole in the wall" shop.
