Delicious Hawaiian dishes at Honolulu's Side Street Inn

The second location opened in 2010 and is larger and more decoratively finished than the original. It seats close to 200.

Food at the Side Street Inn is served family-style. This combo of spicy garlic fried chicken and fried rice is a classic.

Fried rice is the signature dish at the Side Street Inn, served in mountainous portions and laden with meat. This is the “The Works” version and it has four different kinds of pork, plus kimchee.

The “Famous Pan-Fried Island Pork Chops” are the must-have entrée here, addictively tasty with salty, crunchy breading and perfectly cooked juicy interiors.

The spicy garlic chicken is boneless and lightly sauced with three kinds of Korean, Vietnamese and Thai peppers.

Side Street’s pocho clams. "Pocho" is slang for Portuguese, and the clams are surrounded by grilled slabs of Portuguese sausage.

The ahi tuna poke is a popular starter, and like everything else here, good for sharing, with big chunks of fresh fish, well sauced and spiced.

Most of the food has Hawaiian roots, but they specialize in other large grilled meat plates, such as this perfectly cooked prime rib.

Because food is served in big portions for sharing, the Side Street Inn is very popular with Honolulu locals for family gatherings.
