    Hawaiian food approved by Hawaiians! Never had anything less than perfection from Young’s. It’s our go-to spot when we need some good lau lau. Always juicy and tender, cooked to perfection, full of flavor! Their meal includes a generous portion of white rice, some pipikaula, and a large chunk of taro, as well as a small side of Lomi salmon. Very filling, you really get a Big Bang for your buck here. There’s also options for kids, even our excruciatingly picky eater (3 years old) loves the chicken long rice, and will eat the entire helping by himself! Easy for kids to eat, our 1 year old also loves the chicken long rice. It’s currently take out only for Covid, but well worth the stop.

    Best spot on Oahu for Hawaiian food, the pipikaula is very good, as well as the laulau and kalua pork. it’s connected to a shopping center too, so you can get fresh boba nearby for dessert or taro donuts from kam bakery nearby.

    I was looking for a local seasoning salt and this was the ONLY place I found it. Please support local business. We've lost too many already!

    Youngs is a the go to for Hawaiian food. Love that youngs is a Fivestars rewards vendor. The rewards Youngs offer are very generous compared to other vendors! Real easy, put in your phone number and your rewards are tracked.

    Very popular local place for local food. I went for the butterfish Lau Lau. It was definitely tasty and the fish bones melt in your mouth, so no need to pick out any bones. I enjoyed it, but it's very different than the misoyaki butterfish that I was looking for. So, if you don't like the fish taste, then there are plenty of other food that they offer on the menu and not just seafood.

    Been coming to Young's Fishmarket for years now! I am always happy to spend money here because the food is really good with pretty fast service but the seating is minimal. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is because the poke is always hit and miss and since it's so expensive I would hope it would be more consistent on flavor. The Kulolo is amazing!!! I will always come here for really ono Hawaiian food!

    If you're looking to enjoy traditional Hawaiian cuisine, then this is the place to visit. The Kalua pig, lomi salmon, and pipi kaula are worth the drive, even when I'm commuting from the North Shore! The haupia is the best way to end the meal. It's smooth, coconuty, creamy, and oh so yummy!

  • 5/5 Relish C. 7 months ago on Google
    Older and a little run down this place is the real deal! Great Kalua Pork! Service is moms and pops but friendly and what it should be for the atmosphere. Menu selections and food all on point ! This place is not fine dining this is Hawaiian Soul Food at its best.

  • 3/5 Jennifer G. 4 months ago on Google
    Their chicken long rice was a disappointment because the broth and chicken did not have a good flavor. The haupia has very little coconut flavor and tasted more like gelatin.

    A down to earth local lunch place. What the food lacks in presentation it more than makes up for by being delicious and hearty. The beef stew is great, and Big Al's "small" bento is packed with meat and veg.

  • 5/5 Iceman 4 months ago on Google
    For realz, my favorite Hawaiian food place. It's always between the big Al's bento or the beef stew plate. Either way, no can go wrong. If you never ate here.... you missing out.

    Laulau is the best here! Poi was fresh and poke was ono!!! Was not impressed with kalua pig. Go early because they run out of stuff by dinner time. They even ran outta rice when we went for dinner. There is seating, but booths are looking kinda rough.

  • 4/5 john t. 1 year ago on Google
    My family grew up on Young's Fish Market Hawaiian food. The laulau had a generous amount of pork and just the right amount of luau leaf to complement it. The lomi salmon has a good amount of salmon and goes well with poi. The kalua pig smoky and salty, just the way we like it. I really like the turkey tail but others don't like the amount of fat in it. Overall this is what we think of as hawaiian food. Service was fast and the people are nice and helpful.

    A humble shop located at the Dillingham square where Hawaiian food is their specialty. Kulolo is flown in fresh once a week. My personal favorites include the roast pork and char siu turkey tail.

  • 5/5 Neil Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food. But pricey. When you want a for sure thing, come here. Char siu ribs are amazing here!

  • 5/5 Michael 'Mick' O. 2 years ago on Google
    Young's market serves the best beef stew, the potatoes and carrots and beef is so tender it's almost better to scoop the food with a spoon because if you poke it to much with a fork it'll split into two and you won't pick up anything.

  • 5/5 Chanel M. 2 years ago on Google
    Everytime I'm at home Young's is a must. Awesome Hawaiian food. My favorite is the Big Al's Bento (Rice or Poi, Kalua Pig, Mini Lau Lau, Pipikaula and Sweet Potato). So ono!

  • 3/5 lucy l. 1 year ago on Google
    Kalua pig and pipi kaula were very good. Kalua pig not too smokey and not too salty. Pipi kaula slightly sweet. Laulau was okay, luau leaves were a little dry and it needed salt. Hawaiian style poke needed salt too.

    My go to whenever I return to the islands. They still have the best and freshest lau lau. Tuesday is Senior Discount day 10%. I had the Albert Bento Box. 13.95 for mini laulau (but the pork was a bit dry this time), kalia pig, pipikaula, rice and purple potato. My friend got the stew. She said they have the best beef stew.

    Still a go-to place for takeout Hawaiian food. As of my most recent visit, a number of done in seats now available. Call ahead if you want to purchase frozen laulau; they sometimes run out.

    The food was wonderful. This was my first time experiencing Hawaiian food. I absolutely loved it all.
