Chicken Restaurants in Hawaii

When Guy Fieri brought his flame-emblazoned Camaro to the Hawaiian Islands, he discovered a chicken scene as vibrant and diverse as the islands themselves. Between 2014 and 2019, the Mayor of Flavortown visited seven standout restaurants across Hawaii, showcasing everything from traditional island preparations to unexpected fusion creations. Five of these spots are still serving up their signature dishes today, maintaining an impressive average rating of 4.3 stars.

From the surf town of Kahului to the laid-back shores of Kapa’a, these restaurants have earned their place in Triple D history. Thai Mee Up in Kahului leads the pack with a stellar 4.6-star rating, while nearby Brigit & Bernard’s Garden Cafe follows closely at 4.5 stars. Over on Kauai, Saimin Dojo in Kapa’a rounds out the top performers with 4.4 stars. Whether you’re exploring Maui’s culinary hotspots in Kihei and Lahaina or venturing to the Big Island’s Kailua-Kona, these Guy-approved chicken destinations offer a delicious reason to eat your way across the Aloha State.
