Zippy's Hilo

I have always wanted to try Zippy’s after finding out it is Jason Momoa’s favorite restaurant in Hawaii. And just as he said, it truly is the ultimate comfort food. I accidentally ordered from their takeaway counter instead of the sit-down restaurant since it was my first time there, and I got too excited seeing all the food that I did not even notice the sign. I ordered the Chicken Trio Platter, which comes with white rice, macaroni salad, Korean fried chicken, chicken katsu with sauce, and their original fried chicken. The food was fresh, hot, and incredibly tasty. Everything was perfectly juicy and crispy, and I finished it all even though the portion was quite large.

Zippy’s in Hilo is an absolute gem for breakfast lovers! The menu offers a fantastic Hawaiian flare, with local favorites and creative twists that make every meal special. Their baked goods are fresh, delicious, and always leave me wanting more. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. If you’re looking for a memorable breakfast spot with mouthwatering pastries and a true taste of Hawaii, Zippy’s is definitely worth a visit!

The food war amazing. We eat at Zippys on Oahu all the time but, here, the chicken was super good. Our server was amazing too.

Two hamburger steak plates all six pieces of burgers were burnt brought home for the pups to eat. That with service and atmosphere we have seen better days when lines were out the door to eat there, people didn’t wait 20-30 minutes to eat. I’m big on tipping but zeros. Tip: People choose your establishment provide them good service. Don’t let them leave with a bad taste in their mouths. They are going to tell everyone.

As a Hawai’i native you sometimes just need some comfort food. Living on the mainland now I crave Zippy’s Chili with beans and rice. I recently discovered that they serve a Lilo drink which. Is also fantastic. Add to it the smiling faces of everyone here, Mia was exceptionally sweet and attentive.
