Keneke's Grill at Punaluu

I had been wanting to go to this establishment for a while since I’d passed it in my car, and it looked like a great local place to eat. I was not disappointed! My family and I split the Lunch Special, which includes two cheeseburgers and a drink for a very good price. I was surprised to find out that Keneke’s Grill is actually an extension of a farm that operates behind the restaurant premises. My family and I, especially my son, appreciated the goats in the backyard. The food was good and had great prices. The staff were very kind to us, especially my son. The atmosphere is fantastic, embodying an old-school-diner spirit on the inside of the building and functioning as a family farm on the outside. The business also appears to be owned by a Christian family, and they sell organic food

Driving by and saw a Tour Bus out front so figured it had to be good. This may not be for everyone as it is a farm with a restaurant and " Chicks and ducks....scurry" around the outside dining tables. Didn't see any goats but the sign says they can't be trusted. I like critters so it enhanced the experience. The good news is that the Hawaiian BBQ chicken breasts were the best I have ever tasted. Not tangy but perfectly sweet, complex and delicious. Rice was fantastic and the Hawaiian macaroni salad was a perfect match. The serving size is humongous 3 meals worth for me. It would take a big man to eat it all in one sitting. I know you guys are out there, but the rest of us will leave with a doggie bag. If you have Christian Phobia you may not enjoy "The writing on the wall"

By far the best service we received on the island was at Keneke’s. I didn’t catch her name but she was so kind, thoughtful, and welcoming to my family. Truly just above and beyond. No one else treated us with such kindness the entire trip. The food of course was INCREDIBLE! The kalua pig plate lunch is my favorite, we also had bbq chicken and shrimp plates. 10/10

Keneke's Grill in Punaluu is an adorable, unpretentious local eatery with an island country charm. It's a local favorite sincethe 1980s. Many locals are familiar with Keneke's in Waimanalo, and so the Punaluu restaurant is one in the same. We enjoyed the relaxed wholesome atmosphere , the delicious food, and the wonderful service from our server Fish (honestly, that's his name). We ordered the Delux cheeseburger special and the Big Red plate special with a side of large garlic fries 😋😋😋 Yummy 😋Their food servings are really generous. A choice place for local plate lunches and more.

This was by far one of the best meals I had on O'ahu. The pork was amazing, but the real star of the meal was the fish. It's a really nice place, everyone was friendly, and most importantly the food was delicious.
