Alakea Delicatessen

Great food at a little hole-in-the-wall take out spot. We went to see the King Kamehameha statue a block or two away on a Saturday afternoon and a lot of things were closed, so this is where we ended up. It was a pleasant surprise. Everything we are tasted great. Prices were reasonable. We had a bento box with a sampling of steak, shrimp, wings and Spam along with some pot stickers (I can't remember the word they used for those. All of it was good. Only negative is that there is no seating/ eating area. It's takeout only, but we found a plaza nearby and ate there under the trees.

Great place to eat a variety of local favorites. Serves the downtown working community. Hours are limited. Extremely busy during lunch. Accepts credit cards. Meter Parking is one block east. Nice staff. It’s a very clean and simple place. No seating currently. Prices are competitive to surrounding areas. Good will be ready in a matter of time if they’re not busy. If you’re there during lunch rush hour expect to wait a little longer. It does get crowded with people. Safe paths with sidewalks and crossing lights. Be mindful it is a busy street. Don’t stand too close to road. Enjoy.

I popped in here early morning after getting off the bus and was drawn in by the low prices. I ended up grabbing a quick bite to eat (french toast & two eggs) for a little over $6. Perfect portion, great taste and quality for price. Fast enough I was still able to catch my transfer across the street. Fantastic location I will surely be back on my Monday commute!
