I was really sad when HK Restaurant closed in September after more than 30 years.
No more teri hamburgers, fried noodles or its popular Yum Yum Chicken.
HK’s was one of my go-to spots before UH volleyball games or after the beach. But in its place opened another plate lunch place, this one serving your standard staples — hamburger steak, chicken katsu, beef stew — with a few items you don’t often see at this kind of establishment, including cold ginger chicken, spaghetti with meat sauce, pork and peas, and roast turkey with stuffing.
I read a few unfavorable reviews and wanted to check it out for myself.
Here’s what my recent lunch there looked like:
Opulicious Restaurant
Opulicious Restaurant, 946 Coolidge St. Hours: 10 a.m.-7:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, closed Sunday. (808) 943-8885

Hello Cat!
Fuud pixs Friday!
My wifes friend openned up this place and we never had a chance to check it out yet but we will for sure. Looks onolicious!
Hey Cat … the food actually looks really good … and I like the menu offerings … but I guess it’s the flavors that matter!!! …
… sooooo, are you discrediting the unfavorable reviews you saw about this place??? …
… I love crinkle-cut fries!!! … and yes, it pains me when they’re not done right … I mean, how can you go wrong with them … *sigh* yeah some people do … oily, undercooked, soggy, salty, unseasoned … I’ve seen it destroyed many ways …
Looks good to me. I like sweet potato fries and think it’s cool they offer that. The katsu looks good. Nice and crispy and not fatty like other places.
