What Eric Yanagihara likes about North Shore Grinds:
Great local food at reasonable prices.Our go-to plate lunch place every time we visit Honolulu.Lau-lau, plate with Kalua pig and Lomi salmon. Broke da mouth brudda.Food: 5/5 View all feedback. What Kha Văn doesn't like about North Shore Grinds:
Came here because of the good reviews. Had to find street parking went mid morning and had no problem finding a spot. Very small eating area, but since it was just the 3 of us, the table they had available was suitable. A little scary going to the back to use their bathroom. (But at least they had a bathroom). Food portions were minimal for the price you pay. Mac salad was atrocious, no flavor at all. Katsu was okay,... View all feedback.

Nice local mom and pop restaurant. We shared the chicken and steak teriyaki plate which was enough for two.
