Hali'a by Side Street Inn Now Open at Wai Kai!



Last week, I got to preview the menu at Hali'a by Side Street Inn located in Wai Kai in Ewa Beach. Hali'a is Hawaiian, meaning honor and remembrance of a loved one. In this case, the restaurant name is honoring the memory of Side Street Inn founder Colin Nishida who opened the original location in 1992 and passed away in 2018. Carrying on the legacy are owners and best friends, Cheryl DeAngelo and Lisa Meyer.

The location is beautiful with indoor, outdoor, and terrace seating. The service is also incredibly friendly and attentive. The menu has all of your favorite Side Street Inn classics plus a variety of poke and all new signature cocktails!

Spicy Ahi Poke

Chinese Chicken Salad

Signature Garlic Chicken

"The Works" Fried Rice

Sizzling Boneless Kalbi

Pan-fried Pork Chops

Mom's Sweet Bread Pudding

Signature Peanut Butter Crunch

New Cocktails

Hali'a now open!

Owners Cheryl DeAngelo and Lisa Meyer

The restaurant is open Monday through Thursday from 4pm to 10pm and Friday through Sunday from 4pm to 11pm. You can make reservations on their Yelp page.
