Bombay Indian Restaurant

1778 Ala Moana Blvd
Honolulu, HI 96815

Conifers J. writes: So... Bombay was a super pleasant surprise in Hawaii, in Waikiki.  I'd only had ONE other decent meal in the area, and it's NOT a function of what a food snob I've become or do I know where to go eat in Hawaii. What I care about is all of YOU PEOPLE…

Honolulu, HI 96815

Eggs'n Things

1911 Kalakaua Ave Ste B
Honolulu, HI 96815

Johnny S. writes: There's something about a place that caters to drunks.  Eggs'n Things opens at 11pm and closes at like 5am, then is open for "late breakfast" around 1pm.  Eat there, you'll thank me later.  But bring cash, cause they don't have a credit card machine.
