Kanak Attack Two

The prime rib servings were tender, medium rare to medium and about 4 to 5 oz. portions.

I heard of Kanak Attack Two actually from my co-​worker, who started going to this place for his lunches. I didn’t notice this place when I used to go to Helena’s Hawaiian Food, which was basically next door. Guess what? I know now!

One thing that caught my eye was the fact that it was relatively cheap and the generous portions they give. I was amazed when my co-​worker brought his lunch from there one day and he showed me what he bought. I saw several days worth of lunches before I ventured to Kanak Attack Two personally myself and see this place myself. To my surprise, Kanak Attack Two wasn’t an actual restaurant, but an industrial kitchen that I assume they do a lot of catering jobs here too, as well as selling plate lunch to us local kamaa’ina who love local comfort food at reasonable prices. The initial encounter here was a little shocking, since discovering that it wasn’t an actual restaurant, but it is okay. Cheap eats is the name of the game here and the food they do have is quite good and they give generously. The large portions give me pause, as well as smile too, since cheap means happy to my wallet. Plus, I can eat half of it and save the rest for the next meal at the office. Saving money and cheap eats is what I am all about!
The overall experience here was really anticlimactic, but a positive one. As aforementioned before, I expected it to be an actual restaurant, but was a little disappointed. They have calendar menus on the front door to let people know what they’re selling at any given day. My co-​worker opted to order up for me and we just walked on over one day during a nice Friday during 12:15pm to pick it up. We had a nice conversation about random stuff. The service here was as minimum as you would get at a fast food joint. I just pay for the food, and thank them for just being here. As aforementioned before, they are cash only. That made it difficult for me, since I usually do most, if not all, my transactions on the plastic. Thankfully, at the time, I had cash on me and did just that. The parking is quite limited here, so you’ll have to find street parking nearby. Kanak Attack Two is located at 1238 North School Street in Kalihi. If you’re like me, bus route 1L, 2, and 2L rumble through here on a daily basis.
What I did order from my first experience was beef stew in a bowl for about $ 5 and a Hawaiian plate that was recommended by my co worker. It was $ 6. I did not bother to ask what it was called but I just went with it because he said it was really good so I believed him and ordered it to go. Turns out it was good and wanted it some more. The beef stew, on the other hand however, Was delicious too. Definitely needed more rice though for the beef stew to disappear even faster. For what it was worth, I think that this place is a hidden gem. Too bad it was not a actual restaurant but a catering place. Still, it’s always a nice place to visit to get your food on. Perfect for a lunch spot on any day of the week. I don’t know if they are open for dinner. Best bet is to get here early after you call in for your order. There isn’t a place to sit and eat, either inside or outside. I would simply bring this back to my office and eat there.
5 stars! Cheap and good food! Only want to be at times.

I had them for my baby’s first birthday today and I thought they were great.
I heard of them through my in-​laws who know the owners. I also had their Hawaiian plates at a funeral and liked them (which is a big deal because my dad is an amazing Hawaiian food cook).
I didn’t want to let them know my in-​laws knew them so I just called on my own without dropping names. Anyway, I had to leave a message inquiring about catering. I had previously saw their page on Facebook so I already saw the catering menu and decided what I wanted to order. They called back by the end of the day and I got the order in right away. They seems very nice and willing to go to great lengths for good service, like delivery to the location and all paper products, warmers, and coolers included. I had called back a few times to change the menu or ask questions and they were always really patient and gracious with me.
The day of the party they came around half an hour before the party started, brought all the food and set up the tables. They left us with the warmers and coolers with the extra food in it to keep the replacement trays the correct temperature and trusted us to just return them after the party (they said in 3 days is fine). The paper products were all really good quality too! I was expecting the typical flimsy catering type napkins and plates but they were nice and thick and great quality.
I didn’t have much time to eat during my daughters party as I was running around doing stuff but I heard many comments that the food was delicious. We ordered the 3 entrée, (garlic chicken, chopped steak, and roast pork) with rice, green and tossed salad.
I really liked them and could feel they care for their customers. We ordered food for 160 people and I feel like they gave us food for 200, the portions were really generous!

We were the lucky winners of the Kuakini Hospital certificate for a catered luau for 25 people from Kanak Attack Two!!! EVERYONE enjoyed the ONOLICIOUS Poi, Kalua Pork, Chicken Long Rice, Squid Luau, Lomi Salmon, Sweet Potato, Pineapple and Haupia! Everything was delicious! Very generous portions, really tasty, and one of the best Hawaiian foods we’ve had!!! Thank you for supporting Kuakini Hospital and thank you again for the broke the mouth Hawaiian food! Would definitely order/​cater from Kanak Attack Two!!!

My office always cater from Kanak Attack 2 because their food is pretty tasty and reasonable for the amount they give.
They will deliver if you meet their required amount of servings and will work with you if you need racks or warmers for your food and you can return them after the event.
The portions per person are pretty good size and their food are pretty tasty, so we always have leftovers that everyone wants to take home.
Very personable and professional service. However, there’s not much parking at their site.
