Olympic Café
If you need to satisfy eclectic tastebuds and appetites, the menu here can please all. In a sprawling space overlooking the highway, it's a casual, tropical-setting (if LA-inspired) diner. Fill up with the egg and spinach scramble with sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts (around US$9) or the whopping kalua pig burrito ($10.50).

Liliha Bakery
Sugary cereals aren't just for breakfast anymore. This bakery and diner causes a traffic jam for its coco-puff pastries. Too nutritious you say? Then take a seat and order hamburger steak or other lumberjack faves at this spot northeast of Downtown.

Have a seat at this hole-in-the-wall next to the Miramar hotel for some of the cheapest and saltiest grub in Waikiki. The atmosphere is purely local, with a dozen seats lining a long bar just a grease splatter away from the cook.

Korean Bar-B-Q Restaurant
While more local than Korean, the generous, meaty plates do include kimchee. Non-meat eaters might be wary, but fish and veg options are available. Grungy diner atmosphere. Health nuts, look elsewhere.
