Some resorts like the Four Seasons, require reservations for either lunch or a room to let you enter, while other Hawaii resort areas, like the Waikoloa, will let any visitor stop in. Most of the Hotels in Hawaii, or the Big Island, as it is also known, are on the Gold Coast, or the Kohala Coast, north of Kona. Hilo is the largest city in Hawaii, and, like the varied landscape, this city has some of the most variety of hotels Hawaii has to offer. The Shipman House is an official historic site as well as one of the most unique Hawaii hotels. This is set in a beautifully restored Victorian mansion, but it has all the modern conveniences a visitor is going to expect from Hawaii lodging. There are 5 guest bedrooms, each with a full bathroom complete with amenities. On Wednesday, there is a hula class, and every day of the week there is afternoon tea with snacks. A continental breakfast buffet is served every morning at this Hawaii hotel. The owners Barbara and Gary also add touches like fresh flowers and heirloom furniture to each room to make for an authentic bed and breakfast feeling. In the south, the Volcano House is a great choice for Hawaii lodging if you want to be close to the Volcanoes National Park . This is also another one of the historic Hawaii hotels. The Volcano House overlooks the Caldera of Kilauea, and is inside the national park. You won't find the bustle and crowds of a typical Hawaii resort, so this is one of the best hotels in Hawaii where you can get away and enjoy the beauty of the volcanoes while staying in quiet, clean accommodations. This building has been continually inhabited since 1865, and once you see the views, you will understand why. The simple rooms are kept warm with volcanic steam, but not all of them face the crater. If the hotel is full you may want to pass on the other rooms that don't have the great views but they cost just as much. While the Volcano House certainly has some of the best views of all the hotels Hawaii has to offer, it's not worth the price to have a room without a view if you do choose to stay here. The Fairmont Orchid is one of the top hotels Hawaii has on the Kohala coast. Spread out over 32 acres of prime water front real estate, this is considered a top choice of Hawaii lodging for beach lovers. The activities like drum-making and ukulele lesson help you learn about Hawaiian culture while you have fun. The weather on the Kohala coast is perfect year round, and this Hawaii hotel has such confidence in the perpetual sunshine that fine furniture remains outdoors overnight. For dinner, visit Brown's Beach house. You can enjoy a Hawaiian cocktail and watch the sun set from your table. The breakfast buffet is also known for being one of the best in any Hawaii hotel. Whether you're on a romantic honeymoon or a family vacation, this hotel is a great choice. From quiet volcano lodges to luxurious beachfront resorts, there is no lack of variety in the hotels in Hawaii. A Hawaii resort is what many travelers will choose without thinking, but taking the time to explore your options can help you find the best value and a one of a kind experience. contact us | advertising with us | content licensing | privacy policy | terms of use | help (C) 2004 Destination360 All Rights Reserved Hawaii Map Select a region North America Central America South America Caribbean Hawaii Overview When to Go Events and Holidays Top 10 things to do Hawaiian History Interisland Flight Flights to Hawaii Hawaiian Islands Oahu Maui The Big Island Kauai Destinations Akaka Falls Anaehoomalu Bay Beaches Hawaii Volcano Park Kona Liliuokalani Gardens Hawaii Petroglyphs Puuhonua Rainbow Falls Hawaii Hotels Oahu Hotels Maui Hotels Big Island Hotels Kauai Hotels Travel Resources ATV Tours in Hawaii Hawaii Cruises Hawaiian Dinner Cruise Hawaiian Car Rental Hawaii Diving Golfing Helicopter Tour Luau Sailing Snorkeling Snuba Surfing Big Island Weather Weddings Wedding Photographer Hawaiian food for cheap.Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Hawaiian Walk In at Epinions.com Join Epinions | Help | Sign In Restaurants Restaurants & Gourmet All Categories Advanced Search Home > Restaurants & Gourmet > Restaurants Hawaiian Walk In Overall rating: Reviewed by 3 Epinions users Food and Presentation: Ambiance and Decor: Quality of Service: Write a Review Compare Prices View Details Read Reviews Subscribe to reviews on this product Read Review of Hawaiian Walk In Review Summary About the Author Ho-Hum Plate Lunch in Downtown Oakland Nov 24 '04 Author's Product Rating Food and Presentation: Ambiance and Decor: Quality of Service: Pros Fill up on cheap Hawaiian food for cheap. Cons It's not that great Hawaiian food. The Bottom Line Hawaiian food in downtown Oakland. Full Review Hawaiian Walk In 402 15th Street Oakland CA 94612 During the week - 10:30 AM - 9:00 PM weekends - 11:00 AM - 7:00 PM Ever since Aloha Fest at Presidio Park this past summer, I have been fixated with plate lunches, malasadas, and SPAM. Ideally, SPAM in my plate lunch somewhere, but defnitely not in my malasada. Imagine then, how excited I was to discover that Hawaiian Walk In - a place that cooks up plate lunches - was located less than five miles from my apartment. Awooo! Then, imagine just how disappointed I was after finding out the food was just under so-so. That's just how it happened. Location It's in downtown Oakland, a stone's throw from Broadway. You really wouldn't be doing anyting in downtown Oakland unless you work there or are going to Temple Tattoo, so there aren't too many accidental walk ins at Hawaiian Walk In. There is no parking lot either, so you'll probably have to spend some time looking for metered street parking. The best time to try this place out is after work hours or on weekends. Of course, the closest BART station is City Center. The Scene It's downtown Oakland - not in the hip part - not that there is a hip part. There's one woman who is the hostess, waitress, and cashier and she'll happily hand you a pink paper photocopied menu and hang out by the cash register up front. Behind her post is a fridge, the kind you can see in, where you'll find a jumble of Hawaiian Sun juices and sodas. This place is ridiculously casual, and almost has a dive, hole-in-the-wall charm to it. Menu Lots of island-style plates at ridiculoulsy low, low prices. The food is better to talk and read about than eat. Specials include things like a Teriyaki Mixed plate (think of it was a three way plate - teri short ribs, teri chicken, and teri steak), Loco Moco (a hamburger patty and fried egg smothered in gravy atop a mound of rice), Pork Lau Lau, or a Bento lunch of Mahi Mahi, teri steak, teri chicken and ham. All Specials come with two scoops of rice and a scoop of mac salad, just like all Hawaiian plate lunches. Specials are around $5 and each plate is plenty. The monster special, which is a ridiculous amount of food, is the Mahalo Chicken Combo - Teri chicken, Lemon chicken and Chicken katsu with rice and mac salad. It was more than enough for two starving adults. There are also "regular" plates, which include one meat choice with the same sides - other things like lemon chicken, deep fried shrimp and curry are available. ($5-$6). For lighter eaters, or if $5 is too expensive, opt for a "mini" plate wich is the same as regular, but you just get one scoop of rice instead of two. No mini plate is over $4. Need to go cheaper? Get a sandwich - teri chicken, mahi mahi or teri beef - less than $2.50. Yup. $2.50. Now you're thinking that this is plate lunch nirvana with its jumbo portions and mega low prices. Nope. The food isn't that great. The chicken breasts for every chicken item we ordered was way too fatty with mystery, chewy bits. (I've eaten here a handful of times now.) The teriyaki flavor is actually pretty good - a full sweet taste - but no amount of marinade and sauce can mask poor quality chicken. The lemon chicken is a heavy overly battered and deep fried breast - the batter is so thick and bready, kind of like corndog batter without the cornmeal, which becomes a pocket sponge for what it was deep fried in. The lemon sauce - sugary, lemony, sad. The mac salad, which for many is what makes or breaks a plate lunch, is actually pretty good. But, cannot stand for the plate lunch. They also have saimin - but I can't recommend it either way because I haven't tried it yet. ($4 with egg and chicken, $2.25 plain!) I'm such a fan of island food that I'll probably go back to try the saimin. The Verdict I was disappointed, but it doesn't mean I won't go back. I really should learn my lesson. The prices are low, and there are enough things on the menu for several visits. This place though, is better and more authentic than the new place in El Cerrito (Waikiki something.) However, if you work in downtown Oakland anyway, and are short a few bucks...
