Tanioka’s is a local hole in the wall food spot in Waipahu, Hawaii, that I’d been wanting to eat at for many years. Finally, we made the drive out to Waipahu (about 30 mins or so from Honolulu), ordered some food, and ate it on the beach.

Tanioka’s Seafood and Catering – Waipahu, Hawaii – It’s a local Hawaii food spot, known for their takeaway bentos and lunchboxes, poke, and musubi. They also have a full cabinet of different deep fried things – like fish patties, tempura, and mochiko chicken. When you walk in, you immediately stand in line and pass through the line ordering whatever you see that looks good. One thing you can be certain of is that all their fish is extremely fresh. I was very excited, but it’s one of those places that you order a bunch of food, but you always feel like you missed ordering something important.

Here’s most of what I ordered:

Spam musubi / deluxe spam musubi
Fish patties
Futomaki
Poke bowl with fried belly
Spicy ahi bento
Poi mochi

Total price – $67.90

It’s not cheap at all, but it’s typical Hawaii prices.

After getting the bags of food, I wanted to go eat somewhere along the beach. Since I don’t typically get out to the West Coast of Oahu very often, we decided to drive out to Kahe Point. The views were spectacular and we walked around for a little while, but there wasn’t a good grassy area to sit, so we continued on to Ko Olina. Ko Olina is a resort and golf course area, which amazing calm lagoons and grassy areas, perfect to dig into a Hawaii beach feast from Tanioka’s!

    You can tell when it’s absolutely 100% delicious when his eyes close followed with the classic lean to the right , I’m so so jealous and wish I could get so good quality seafood where I’m at (dead center of America) LOVE the videos ☺️

    React to something that you thought was gross. Every time I watch your videos I feel like you think everything you eat is good. I've been subscribed for years and I would like to see those reactions too. If you've done those disregard. BTW this is not a message saying you did anything wrong. I really love the channel.

    Aww Bruddah Mark, it's aku not akau. 😉 I think part of the binder in the tuna patties is tofu. Great review Mark.

    Do you like Rainbow drive in? It’s here in EWA now. I’d love if you do a drive in show. Or the Kauai shrimp lunchwagons in the windward side. Or the delish Okazu at Sekiyas or in Kalihi. YUMS for years! Or the dim sum from Legends in Chinatown or Happy Day or Nice Day. I deeply appreciate your kamaaina roots and love your dedication for Tamashiros and Taniokas! Both surely Hawaii’s secret gems. Love and Aloha!
