The Definitive Ranking
The Best Plate Lunch
on Hawaiʻi Island
Two scoops rice, macaroni salad, and your protein — the definitive Hawaiʻi meal.
The Big Island has the longest lunch counters and the shortest lines — Hilo's downtown block alone has more old-school plate lunch per square foot than most of Oʻahu. Portions run large and prices stay honest.
