Best Loco Moco in Southern California is at Gardena Bowl Coffee Shop in Gardena Bowling Alley.
I usually get the Portuguese Sausage Loco Moco. Comes with 2 scoops rice, grilled onions, 2 portuguese sausage patties, gravy and 2 eggs and side of pickled cabbage. Eggs cooked to your liking. They also have beef patties, Kalua pork and chicken katsu Loco Moco. Other dishes are char siu and eggs, hawaiian royale, ox tail soup, saimin and numerous combinations like teriyaki chicken and tempura.
You’re making my mouth water Keith! Mahalo for all the onolicious recommendations 🤙🏻🤤
I think the butter rolls and that red jelly that come with your meal at Liliha Bakery should count as extra points!
For sure! But even without it their Loco moco was so good! 🤤
Not sure what the hype is about Liliha bakery jelly. It's just sweet tasting. Not much taste. The grilled butter rolls on the other hand, are awesome.
@@808G8GT I guess it's something we grew up eating only at Liliha Bakery -- You can tell it's the sweet kind of jelly that kids like. I remember waiting and eating at that counter with my family when I had to be lifted onto the seat. I always had the mahimahi and my parents usually had the hamburger steak. (Loco moco wasn't invented yet.) I always looked forward to the rolls and jelly before the main dish.
i love the guava jelly and toasted butter rolls!
Liliha Bakery is the best by far! Quality ingredients, plated nicely and the gravy consistency and ratio is da bomb💣
Best Loco Loco is at Zippy’s Koko Marina. Great gravy with mushrooms, and a char broiled burger. Rice and egg were also good.
Hi to the cutest couple in Hawaii! Well we know everyone in the islands have their own favorites but the truth is we love them all for multiple reasons! Thanks for doing a fun taste testing.🎉❤🍚🍳
True! Everyone has their preference! Mahalo Diana! 🤙
lol all the manangs speaking ilocano brings me back all the time...im there. miss Liliha's!
Love the worth it vibes!
Yessss. Liliha bakery is the first place we eat once we land from the airport. Thank you for the great review. Can’t wait to come back and eat the Loco Moco, corn beef and hash, and pancakes with some “crack bread” aka butter rolls.
Mahalo Amanda & Felix ! Yes our Foodie Ohana ! Liliha Bakery is our go to spot when we vacation back home ! We love Loco Moco !!!
You know the good stuff Gail🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Thank you for doing this! This was an awesome episode!
Mahalo! 🤙
Coming home to visit after 10 years! Definitely giving Liliha Bakery a visit while we are down there. Thanks for all the wonderful information!🥰
Can't wait for you to try! 🤙
I miss Hungry Hungry Lion from back in the day. Fantastic loco mocos
Original Liliha bakery loco moco is my favorite too! 😋
You guys are the BEST!!! Mahalo!
Mahalo 4 doing da legwork...now I know exactly where 2 go...Liliha 4 da win!!!
Fun video, guys. Gotta love the char on Liliha's burger patty, hard to beat.
We totally agree! Mahalo Bill and Lisa! 🙌🤙
I just want to thank you guys! I tried so many places on my trip because of you (one being the Loco Moco at Rainbows 😋) Roys for my birthday dinner was one of the best meals I've ever had and Highway Inn was probably my whole group's favorite meal. Also of course had to have Leonard's Malasadas, and much more. Thanks again! :)
We're glad to have helped! Mahalo for supporting! 🤙
It’s hard to beat Liliha Bakery for LM bc their patties are grilled on a flame grill and their gravy is ono (delicious).
The outtakes!! 😁
Glad to see you both doing well ❤ To me all versions look great and it’s great that you can choose. Thank you so much for the video! Stay healthy and well 😊
Mahalo! 🤙
Let's go! I'd like to try Liliha bakery Loco moco. And some butter rolls with jelly!
I love the ending 😂😂😂😂
Amanda & Felix...Yaaaaay! What a great episode. LOCO MOCO is the ultimate local comfort food. All of these locations you presented make fantastic loco moco's. Liliha Bakery has the best Loco Moco Patty. How can you beat a Charred Hamburger patty. Rainbow Drive In spoiled me with the Mac salad addition. I have to agree with Amanda's Loco Moco assessment. If I am not in town, my favorite place to get a Loco Moco on the Leeward side is "Kapiolani Coffee Shop" at the Waimalu Shopping Center. Lots of great comfort food there. The Loco Moco comes with mac salad, just the right amount of gravy and affordable. I order my loco Moco there with regular fried Rice vs standard white rice. The Fried rice gives the plate an extra yummy deliciousness. :-0)
Great series! I love loco moco- even if i cant move after eating it!
Agree...when my bestie comes home to visit we go Liliha Bakery too
Never had a moco loco, loved the video, cannot wait to try in a few weeks 😋
So exciting!
@@AmandaFelixEats Been binge watching many of y'all videos, keep up the great work. Excited for our first trip to Hawaii 😎
All time faves!
👍🤙
I love watching your videos. Me and my family love Hawaii 🏝️❤️
Mahalo for supporting! 🤙
Comfort food to da max! I so hungry now!😊
I’m craving loco moco now! Mahalo Barbara 🩷🤙🏻
Happy New Year to you both . Please continue to make awesome food videos on local grinds
Happy new year and Mahalo! 🤙
My husband tried so many Loco Mocos. He loved the Poi Bowl’s and Itchy Butt’s. He never tried Liliha’s. Now he have to try it!
Awesome! Hope he likes it🤙🏻
These kinds of episodes are the best! Cuz when I'm in town I like try the best 😂 thanks for the content!
Any time! Mahalo! 🤙
Amanda and Felix I’m glad you did a Loco Moco video. I will be on island in March, for the month with my daughter. And I love a good Loco Moco that’s my favorite dish on island.😊😋
Get ready to get your grinds on! 🤙
Loco moco, the comfort food of Hawaii. I like Hamada and Liliha too. More locations would be appreciated. Always appreciate your love of food.
Stay tuned for pt2! 🤙
Cannot miss with Liliha!
For sure! 🙌
Thanks for covering the iconic loco moco, I'm now craving one! LOL And you gave me some good suggestions to check out. I love this series, and can't wait to see you do other Hawaii classics -- katsu and shave ice as were suggested, and maybe best ramen, hot pot, poke, malasadas, dim sum, etc. (And definitely round 2 with the loco mocos!) I know you've covered all of these individually in your various reviews, but seeing them all compared against each other in one review is really useful! You guys are the best. 🥰
We're so happy everyone's enjoying this serious! Definitely more to come! Mahalo! 🤙
Rainbow and Liliha is our fav
I like the new series! Awesome idea! Can't wait to see more!
My favorite (although it's not the traditional) is the Curry-Moco from GomaTei. In fact, I like it so much, that's all I ever order when I go there! LOL!!
Haven't tried that there yet! Sounds good!
I love this episode! More like this please! Westman Cafe on Waikiki beach walk was nice 👍🏼. Wagyu beef patty ❤
Sounds good!
Wonderful video! Loco moco is one of my favorites. I always get it at the California Casino in Vegas.
That sounds awesome🤤🤙🏻 mahalo!
Great video, looks like the start of a new series. Minor clarification for non-locals though. Ordering “gravy all over” doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting much more gravy. Just means the gravy will also be covering the eggs and Mac salad (which isn’t a bad thing). If you’re worried about amount of gravy, just order extra gravy.
Perfect timing! I love Loco Moco and I'll be in Oahu next week (Jan. 23). I need my Loco Moco fix!
Can't wait for you to try! 🤙
My very first Loco Moco was at Pancakes & Waffles in Kalihi, after seeing your video "LOW KEY LOCAL BRUNCH SPOT!" in March of 2021. I know Felix had the pork one when you were there, but I wanted to try the OG one first so I knew what it tasted like and it was delicious! I now judge all my Loco Mocos to that standard. Maybe when I come next month I'll have to try the one at Liliha Bakery, as it looks so good too. Oh and my daughter had the Bacon Waffle with whole bacon strips baked into it and it was also very yummy. Thanks for the REC!!
Any time! We're glad to be of help! 🤙
Haven't eaten any red meat for almost 15 years, but this video made me want to run down to Liliha. Really enjoyed seeing you folks enjoying the loco moco's even though I can't have any.
I vote rainbow drive in as the worst loco moco in Hawaii, it saddens me to see how many tourists go there believing that's what local food tastes like. The gravy is not brown as it should be and the patty is pre frozen almost tasteless. My two favorites would be "the original" cafe 100 in Hilo and Shige's saimin in Wahiawa
Shige beef Patty's are bomb! We need to make a trip to Hilo! 🤙
Yup, processed frozen patties and the gravy went down hill too
@@AmandaFelixEatsif you do go to Hilo try out Hawaiian Style Cafe - they have lots of great local food. They have 6 types of loco moco. We tried the Mok-a-Saurus…with hamburger patty, kalua pig, spam, and chicken cutlet on fried rice!
They also have an amazing HUGE fluffy haupia pancake! 🤤🤤
Yeah Rainbows went to frozen burgers awhile back, I miss the old patties. Should try Richies in Kalihi, heard their cooks went over there
I vote forty niners as the worst loco Moco
Great job guys .Love the Rainbow Drive in and going to try some other Loco Moco. Just subscribed . Have you done anything at the Paia Fishmarket. Coming back to Oahu soon. Thanks. Alberta Canada.
I like the chili loco moco at Anna Millers in Aiea. Satisfying and filling. Plus their fruit pies are great. Yum😊
We love Anna Miller! 👍
The loco moco at The 49er was pretty good!
Oooh sounds ono! Maybe gotta do a revisit 🤤🤙🏻
I love loco moco I had it several times while visiting the islands
One of the best!
Aloha Foodie Ohana! I so love da Loco Moco. I wish I knew how to make the gravy so I could make it at home in Arizona. Mahalo for sharing this onolicious video. Love you guys! 🤙🏽🍳🍔🍚🌴
Packaged brown gravy does the trick
It's legit just McCormick's brown gravy. Put the right amounts of powder mix and water the recipe calls for in a jar with a lid and shake it vigorously to mix thoroughly and prevent clumping before heating it in a pan
There are recipes online if you want to make the gravy from scratch! Mahalo always Armando! 🙏🤙
@@AmandaFelixEats thank you for the pro tip! I will try the packet way and scratch way and see which one is more ono. 🤙🏽
My top 3: Leeward Drive-Inn, Chibo Okonomiyaki, and The Counter.
love that you went to original liliha bakery! kualoa ranch has a yummy loco moco with local beef patties! yogurstory has a yummy loco moco too! happy 2024!!
Haven't tried theirs yet! Happy 2024!🤙
Brah, you guys make me so hungry!
Stay tuned for more! 🤙
We visit Scratch Kitchen on every vacation. We'll have to try Hamada's on our next trip. Love Liliha Bakery's diner vibe. Looking forward to your 2024 foodie adventures!
Plenty more to come! Mahalo! 🤙
Couple Favorite Local Mocos - Forty Niner Loco Moco and Hi Beer Lab in Pearlridge Wagyu Loco Moco which has a creamy mushroom gravy. both are Bomb
Mahalo for the suggestions! 🤙
I used to go to Liliha Bakery a lot back in the day. I miss it! Aloha from South Carolina! 😘
Wow all the way SC! 🙌 Mahalo for joining us! 🤙
Hello from sunny California ,
Just back from the isles, and had Loco Moco 5 days ,on beach across from Hyatt on at walk up ,
Had the best gravy .
Thanks for great video
Sounds ono! Mahalo Gary 🤙🏻
Rainbow Drive In loco moco with fries instead of rice and Mac salad with gravy all over, doused in their Trappy's red devil hot sauce is such a nostalgic staple for me ❤
That's the one! 🙌
🍚yum
Was not aware of that Liliha bakery location. The diner vibe looks so fun.
Cannot wait to try . We will be back in Hawaii in a few months. Butter rolls sound so oeeshi 😊
Our go to resto is Asahi grill. My husband loves the oxtail soup there. I like the curry eggplant🍆
Now, youve given us so many other ono options
Mahalo🌸❤🌸
Definitely check out the original liliha! 👌 Mahalo! 🤙
We just got back from Oahu, and went to scratch twice. Then this video pops up and we were like, we were just there! We don't often go back to the same place in one trip, but Scratch's brunch was amazing. We actually did repeats much more this trip. We had some of the favorites, but no Loco Moco. The Brulee'd French Toast, pancakes, Chicken and Waffles and Burger were all good. We have to try Hamada's next trip.
Definitely check out Hamada! 👍🤙
Omg we are so envious lol, can’t get a loco moco where we live 😢. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏻
Any time Tim! Mahalo! 🤙
Moke’s bread and breakfast has a great loco moco.
Guava smoked has my favorite version! Best way to describe it is a Smokey Salisbury steak version of loco moco. Blew me away!
Sounds good! 👍
My personal fav is the short rib loco moco at Moena Cafe. Gotta get it with the fried rice. It’s 🔥
Sounds good! 🤤
Loved this episode! I haven't had the Loco Moco at any of these places. Lol. Guess I better get going. Wonder if the Liliha in Pearl City grills their burger like the original Liliha? Hey, there are quite a few food places in the Pearl Highlands above Sam's in Pearl City. Maybe you can check it out although you have been to Liliha's and Little Joe's already.
Mahalo Carol 🤙🏻 so glad you enjoyed this one🩷 hope we can check out the new spots at Pearl highlands soon 🤤
It's nearly midnight, and its a bad time to watch both of you enjoying Loco Moco's. I'm hungry now. I'm surprised that you didn't mention Liliha Bakery's Pork Belly Loco Moco, which is pretty darn good, with Fried Rice and their grilled dinner rolls.. hmmm, very satisfying. All of them, looked good. On the Rainbow Drive In, Loco Moco, it's a brown gravy, but I tend to remember their Mixed Plate with their gravy for the roast pork, which, I thought the gravy was on that was pretty tasty. I'm not sure if that was a Red Eye gravy, which I would think would be pretty good on a Loco Moco. Nice reviews.
We were keeping it to standard, original Loco mocos, no alternatives. Maybe in a different segment we could feature innovative versions 👍
Gotta go Alley's to get the loco moco!
Mahalo for the rec! 🤙
Loco moco at Newtown driving range. Really good there
applause for taste testing 4 locations in one day!!! Thanks for the reviews, so we don't have to!!! Would you be open to making your own local food, head to head with another local RUclipsr collab?? Maybe with HawaiianTraveler @seankaleponi ? I can see you both being competitive!
Thanks for the LOCO MOCO tour. Really got to try a few more places to really make a choice but you did a good job. No way you could eat all that in one day!
The crazy thing is we did! 😁 Mahalo for watching! 🤙
Now im craving a Loco Moco, guess i know what im having for dinner!
Sounds good! 🤤
Being from Hilo I would recommend Kojii's, Cafe 100, Ken's, in that order. At Kojii's loco deluxe. 2 patties, 2 eggs on a bed of rice with gravy, Portuguese sausage, Kim chi, and Mac salad. Or custom order as a friend did, 6 patties & 6 eggs on a bed of rice and gravy. Better hurry Cafe 100 looking to sell the place.
We’re hoping to get over to Hilo for the OG soon 🤤🤤🤤
Aloha Amanda & Felix. If I ate beef, I would definitely shoot for Liliha's (the original location is the best and love those butter rolls/jelly!). The drinks you got sounded good too. I'm enjoying these series you are doing.
We're glad you enjoyed the series Paula! We hope to do more like this 👍Mahalo for joining us! 🤙
We met you guys here at Rainbow Drive-in, thanks for being so friendly and taking a picture with us. Gabe, Gaby, Gracen & Gavin 🤙🏻
It was really nice meeting you and the ohana! We hope you enjoyed your trip! 🤙
Lets go Foodies. Back in Thailand....
Great to hear Walt! We hope everything's OK! 🙏🤙
@@AmandaFelixEats yeah. Laos is not my favorite. I would rank it at the bottom. That's just my opinion 🤷
Hey Amanda and Felix I hope you’re both well. I’ve ever tried a loco moco, they don’t sell them here in Australia, I have however made one myself and that was so delicious I can imagine how the original ones taste
The one you made would probably taste close! Hopefully you make it out here one day Angie! Mahalo! 🤙
Have y’all ever tried Uncle Bo’s “Boco Moco”? It’s my favorite, has the dark rich gravy as well. 😋
Another one that I like is Highway Inn’s smoked meat loco moco but it doesn’t qualify. Just had to mention it because it’s so good 👍🏽
I’ve never had their regular loco moco there….don’t know, it might be good 🤷🏽♂️
Mahalo for the unique variations on loco moco! Sounds ono 🤤🤙🏻
Loco is comfort food in cold weather with kimchi 😂😂 I'm polish so it's my Asian saurkraut 🎉🎉
That sounds ono🤤 mahalo Paul
Fun video!! Ah, but you have to go to Hilo the original!! 💞😎
For sure! Stay tuned! 🤙
Lulu’s definitely and you can watch the howlies crash on 2 foot waves 😂 You can see the ocean … everything made to order… also pretty sure that a star from Blue Crush was my server. 😂😂😂
Haven't tried lulu's one before! Sounds good!
Loco mocos look so good, I might talk to a friend who runs a diner about adding them.
Comfort food! 👍
Been on the islands for most of my life. Never heard about Liliha Bakerys Loco moco haha
Give it a try next time 👍
loco moco from Aiea Bowl
On our list! Mahalo! 🤙
Not gonna lie. Zippys off of Nimitz and L&L (Kam shopping center) got some banging Loco Moco!!! 🍍🤙🤙
Zippys for sure! 🤙
My take… 1. Scratch Kitchen- visual appeal & the Garlic Rice 2. Hamada General Store 3. Liliha Bakery 4. Rainbow Drive In. … everyone one the visited locations are sensational..Aloha, Derek
Much mahalo Derek you know what’s up🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Try the one at Cinnamons! SO good!
We'll try! Mahalo! 🤙
I like the hamburger steak at Liliha Drive-In. Three homemade patties, tons of gravy and mac salad. I'm sure their loco moco is good too!
Sounds like a good deal!
The Clubhouse in Mililani has a pretty fire Loco Moco. I get it with fried rice.
Hey Amanda and Felix u guys are really cool question are u guys coming to Vancouver again
One day for sure! 👍
You guys should try the loco moco at Shiro’s in Aiea
I concur! Liliha Bakery (gotta be at OG location) all the way. I always ask for a side order of grilled onions.
One of our current loco (or prime rib), brekky/brunch is Moke’s in Kaimukī.
I really miss Likelike Drive Inn’s loco moco with grilled onions.
We miss likelike too! 😥
Aloha guys 🌺 we went to the one in Waikiki and yes very disappointing, so maybe if we have time will go to the original , but rib eye sign me up lol hamburger patty grilled yummy 👍👍👍❤
Sorry to hear you had a bad experience there! Maybe only the original one has the grill? The char definitely makes a difference! 👍
Rainbow and then cruise over a few blocks to Leonard’s for fresh malasada’s 😂😂😂 need to fly over soon to chow down.
My favorite is the KOA Loco moco at Koa pancake in Kapolei
We gotta try! Mahalo! 🤙
Ted’s bakery on North Shore has great Loco Moco. The patty has strong grill onion flavor. It’s just delicious 😊
Next time we're out there! 👍
I’ve tried many loco moco dishes around island and so far my favorite is the one from Mililani theater. My next stop will be liliha bakery, I haven’t tried a charbroiled patty yet.
Definitely check them out! 🤙
Check out the 49er!!
Waffles and Pancakes is another good place.
😊
We love them! Mahalo! 🤙
You guys should try Forty Niners Loco moco! It’s by Aiea they’re loco moco are so ono! Also try their macademia pancakes 🤤
Other suggested places: Diner’s, Kahai Kitchen, Guieb Cafe
Hi Amanda & Felix, first…big congratulations on your marriage. Wishing you all the love and happiness possible. Thoroughly enjoyed this video but for people like me who don’t eat red meat…curious if there are any Loco Moco alternatives? 😊🇨🇦
Our favorite is bad ass burgers 👍they make vegan alternatives of Loco favorites! Mahalo Janet! 🤙
