Reviews of E.A.R.L. Kakaako
After passing by a few times and being distracted by the delicious 🤤 aroma I finally decided to go in. I must say, I was not disappointed. The inside was clean and not too busy at the time so I didn’t have to wait too long. The fries were fresh, hit and tasty. The sandwich itself was full of flavor. I did not expect to be taken aback by just how delicious it tasted. I also enjoyed a crisp, refreshing juice Lilikoi Lemonade. They had some unique sauces that really added to the overall flavor which left me feeling pleasantly full. Whenever I get the chance I always like to stop by for a good bite. Definitely recommend!
Dude, this is the best sandwich place. They have so much more too!! I had the Cubano and it was absolutely the best I’ve ever had. It was like an orchestra of flavor. The lemonade is delicious and refreshing. Outdoor seating is kinda nice and inviting on not so hot days. Place is really clean and just all around good vibe in a great area of town. Go eat and enjoy!
I tried the 12” Spicy Chicken Club with Jalapeño Ranch Fries and I must say, they both were wonderful. Could’ve used a little more sauce on the sandwich but it was still great. Will definitely return. They offer inside and outside seating but you must have vaccine card.
I had a lobster roll plate special. It was a bit pricy at $28, but they had multiple deals where if you order 3 its $75 and when you order 5 its $110.
It was a good amount of lobster for the price. The brown butter sauce paired really well with the lobster. The pasta salad was pleasant and the pickles had a nice acidic bite. I felt the coleslaw was the weakest part of this plate. It felt a bit too rich after having the butteriness with the roll and the creaminess from the pasta.
Overall an enjoyable meal, but I think I’ll stick to other things on the menu next time.
All I will say is ONO BAH... one of the only places in town to get a good Cubano sandwich.. and a few other creative ones too. Like the pastrami ... and after work you want a beer and a sandwich this is the spot...
I was disappointed with EARL overall. The first thing you notice when you order is the price. These sandwiches are pricey. Portion size is decent, and it'll fill you up, but you're paying $15 or so dollars for a sandwich. I had the Cubano and was disappointed with it, but maybe I had the wrong expectation. It felt like a checklist of Cubano elements but none of the follow through. It was not flattened, I barely tasted the pickle and mustard, and the meats felt like generic deli cuts. The waffle fries I ordered on the side were absolutely fantastic, though. Best part of the meal. I really wanted to like this place, but it felt like an overpriced sandwich that was just mediocre.
I cannot believe a sandwich can be so good. Literally the best italian sub I've eaten in my life. Can't wait to try everything else on the menu with time, lol. Love the specials!
To Jacob the reviewer who got me to come in, thank you!
We NEED these types of places down west, too bad it doesn't happen. 😭
Ordered the Cubano, it's my absolute favorite sandwich and fries. And when I saw Jacobs review, the first sentence or couple reviewed it, I was sold!
You go in and you can see the kitchen and where they prepare their food, which is always very cool, because you can tell how clean everything is. I also love watching people cook, too bad I was busy doing something.
I wish I could get a beer at 11am. Too bad I'm not confident enough to do so. Lol
The Cubano was so good, it was inhaled. All the flavors were so delicious, the mustard, the meats, the bread was nice and toasted, not the traditional Cubano because it wasn't panini style, but that's ok, the bread was so good.
The fries are waffle fries, so crunchy, perfect amount of salt for someone who loves salt, they gave ketchup and napkins togo. You can always eat in or right outside.
I would totally come back here, if I lived or worked close by. Which I don't. 😭
Awesome food. Friendly staff, the guy taking my order was really nice, trying to get my name correct, dedicated!
If you like sandwiches and not just subway, please make the effort! 🤤
Best sandwich place I have ever been to very great quality! I also love all the creativity with ingredients in everything that I had so many different things came into great harmony to create a master piece I loved this place I will definetly come back again and again. It is a must try!
I just had to visit and order the Nashville Soft Shell Crab Sandwich! Not something you will find in Hawai'i that often. Delicious.
Visiting Hawaii for the first time and had to try this spot out. We got a huge spread to try everyyything!!
Each item had so much flavor. I really loved the French Dip!! However, the Turkey Salad Sandwich was my favorite. It was so fresh and had a lot of veggies inside such as tomato, pickle, and lettuce!! So tasty. We also got a burger which was packed with cheese, pickles, lettuce, and tasty bacon as well.
The Fries were absolutely delicious as well. I love love love the flavor of the cheese and the chicken bits inside the fries as well😛
This spot has a lot of different choices when it comes to food and every single one of them is so delicious!!!
The workers here are wonderful and so helpful!!
One of the best sandwich spots in Honolulu, a big 👍🏽👍🏽. Great staff and service. This place just checks all the important boxes.
Their spicy chicken sandwich and unique take on a Cubano is off the charts. Also tried many of their other awesome sandwiches and they always have me craving for more
Crispy hot honey chicken sandwich + waffle fries. Chic-fil-a on crispy steroids. Under $20 meal 🤙🤙🤙
Good sandwich. Even though seating was very limited I could sit at SALT if I bought coffee from one of the cafes (I went to ARVO). I liked most of their sandwiches - the chicken po boy, cubano, French dip, fresh goat (sometimes with added steak). The bread to sandwich ratio was good and the bread tasted so well balanced with a mix of crunchy outside and soft middle. The chicken po boy was a bit salty to my taste (but I like food with very little seasoning) but overall very good.
Delicious, one of my favorite sandwich shops in Honolulu. Bummed out the Wagyu meatball sub and the cheesesteak sandwich are 6 inches and longer the foot long subs.
It so good why would you want less?
Half the size for the same price is not cool, otherwise, it’s excellent.
2nd time at this place. The food was great but the prices are STEEP. This is a great place if you are visiting and wanting to try something new.
But for families or for those on a tight budget, you can find cheaper items elsewhere.
I order the chicken sandwich. The sandwich tastes just okay for the price.
BEST SANDWICHES ON OAHU. and the best sandwiches I’ve ever had and I’m not normally a huge sandwich person. Their French dip is INSANE. Already had it twice within the past week. Their po boi chicken sandwich is also unreal. For non-meat eaters or looking for something a little lighter, the fun beet is super fresh and delicious. The lilikoi lemonade is perfect too. It’s not too sweet. The garlic fries were the only downside, they were good but because we can only do take out right now, they got soggy and mushy so I bet they would be better fresh and eaten right away. Can’t recommend this place enough. The staff is friendly and pretty quick service.
Hipster place with really good burgers and super crispy waffle fries. Food is 10/10
The cubano is terrific. Right away you get a huge hit of the slow cooked pork. You can taste the sharpness of the melted cheese, and the pickle tops everything off. For sure, I would get another.
Service wasn't so great though.
Spicy chicken club was easily one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in a long time. Excited to go back and try other items on the menu!
Our favorite place for sandwiches. This second location just opened so it was not fully staffed and the menu was not a full menu either. Love the brisket, but what makes their sandwiches awesome is the bread they use and the dip. Sooooo good!
Have to say overall very good, have been to EARL's before just not this location.
I had the Cuban which was excellent
The fries are amazing
My wife had the spicy banh mi, which was not very good.
Would defiantly visit again, just wouldn't get the banh mi.
Their Pastrami sandwich $13 has thick hanburge, bacon, pastrami, cheese and cucumber in it. Very big portion for two ppl. I also ordered $24 Lobster roll. It was portion down, the price went up from $22. Felt it's pricy.
2021 Update: the menu is different but still delicious (best sandwiches on island) and their customer service is still OUTSTANDING 💕🙏🏽💯 I love these guys!
The vegan sandwich options delicious! The service is also super friendly and helpful. Gotta come back for those garlic fries that I kept seeing pass me by... they looked and smelled ridiculous!
Excellent Sandwiches. I ordered four tonight for friends and family. Everyone was super happy with their choice. Friendly staff, clean environment. I will definitely be a faithful customer. Thank you EARLs
E.A.R.L. is f-ing great. Never had a bad thing from here. Get the waffle fries.
Was trying to find something on the lighter side. I ordered the Jam Slam. It was delicious. Light but creamy, well balanced. There is a pay parking garage nearby and side meters. No free parking that I know of.
I’ve heard of this place and finally tried it. Got the cubano and I was not disappointed! Man, I wouldn’t consider myself a cubano connoisseur but it was truly the best I ever had. One thing about that sandwich is that it can be heavy but not here. I kept looking at it to try and figure out why it felt so fresh and light, but had all the substance I love from a Cubano. I don’t know! It was just awesome!
Was around the island and came aross this spot because it was the only restaurant open that early and man it was an amazing choice !!! I had the French dip with a local craft beer which hit the spot !! The dip that comes with the sandwich was so good I drank it !!!
A little pricey for my preference but the sandwiches are very delicious!! Will definitely be back for more!
i blacked out and inhaled this sandwich. god tier.
The lobster roll was amazing, I wish I had the option to get the sandwich by itself. I didn't care much for the pasta salad.
We had the turkey Jam and the avocado Bahn MI. Light and SO flavorful.
Spicy chicken sub was extremely good and big enough for two people. Great quality and flavors combined.
Friendly staff and some very delicious sandwiches. I like that bread is toasted and that the sandwich portions are healthy and large. I visited with a group and we were all satisfied with some eating 2 sandwiches!
This place definitely better than your typical sandwich shop. I got the special which was the pork philly with some jalapeño ranch fries. All together it was more than $20. But, it was worth it when I finally started eating. I do suggest to eat it right away because it is better right on the spot. It may be a little on the higher end in terms of price, however, it would be a nice spot once a month. They also serve cold beer!
I ordered a Drew combo with a lilikoi lemonade and chips. The generous warm pastrami on the toasted bread made for a delicious lunch.
The sandwiches are all delicious! Everything is fresh and made as you order it and made to absolute perfection! The staff is always very friendly and accommodating. And because of the quality, they do get busy at lunch time so call about 15-20 minutes ahead of time to put your order in and you'll be set!
Fantastic sandwich. Well worth the plane ticket to get here. Must try if you visit Honolulu.
The secret of the sandwich is their sauce. Always leaves my taste buds at a loss!
I was skeptical of the social media recommendation.. however after following him on social media and his presentation sold me. So, today my husband and I went to get the crab cake sandwich. A bit shocked by the price but once we arrived home and took a bite into the sandwiches. It took me back to Maryland! We will be back to try other things off the menu. keep it up!
Uh I was excited to try the Philly, but I was underwhelmed. Where is green peppers and mushrooms ?! I made better homemade and at when I ate at Charley’s.
Can’t go wrong with pretty much anything on the menu. However, wait times are consistently unpleasant. Anticipate 30 minutes and order ahead
We had to wait about 10 minutes to get our sandwiches but everything was totally fresh and worth the wait. We had the Veggie, Turkey and Fried Chicken sandwiches. I liked the Chicken sandwich the best. Garlic fries were great too. I would definitely visit again.
We ordered the Italian and the Drew. Far and away the best sandwiches we've had on the island, and truthfully stands up to the best sandwich shops we've been to in any of your token cities. Bread is incredible, meat selection is top notch, and they really do special things to their flavor combinations. Each sandwich is totally unique from the next and equally delicious. Anything you choose you'll be completely satisfied with. To say we are impressed is a criminal understatement.
I've eaten at E.A.R.L'S Sooooo many times. Each time I go, I'm never disappointed. Who knew sandwiches could pack so much flavor!!! The French Dip is by far my favorite. The flavors are indescribable yet so nomzzzz. The sandwiches aren't very huge in size, but huge in flavor. I've also had the Turkey Jam, which is amazing. The Bacon jam is what makes that one. If you want a BIG sandwich, I would tell you to get the Spicy Chicken sandwich. Lastly, the Cubano and the sweet tea. I'm from Tampa, so I'd like to think I know a bit about Cuban sandwiches. It's not a Tampa Cuban sandwich but it's close. The sweet tea has just enough sweetness to it, but I don't think it's sweet enough to be diabetes in a cup. Overall, this is the best sandwich shop I've been to on Oahu.
We came here based off of recommendations. I ordered the French Dip, Jalapeño & Ranch Fries, and the special, the San Marzano Wagyu Meatball Sandwich. The food was pretty middle of the road, but not terrible! I would not recommend ordering the fries - they use a nacho cheese, and mid tier ranch sauce. The Wagyu sandwich was overpriced and not tasty. The french dip was the best thing I ordered. Come here if you need a quick sandwich and you’re in the area! I would not make a special trip to the area just for this spot.
ISYN, that CHX po boy is amazing! My wife has lived here her whole life, and she says it's absolutely the best sandwich she has ever eaten. I'm not gonna disagree, it's crunchy saucy zesty chix perfection nestled in a perfectly crusty Italian roll. Top it off with the lemonade and jalepeno fries and consider your food perfection weekend challenge mission accomplished.
Quite possibly the best sandwiches in our entire lives (Fun Goat and Fried Chicken Po Boy). Bread not too hard, not too soft; meats, cheeses, sauces and veggies all superb. Bacon Cheese Fries had proper amount of sauce over KRINKLE fries- yes, please!!! We will be back!
I was really pleased with this place. Came here on a whim and ordered the chicken po boy and the sandwich was amazing. I got the meal deal with lemonade and the potato salad and everything had a good, fresh taste to it. The chicken was white meat and was really flavorful and juicy. They have a lot of options for their sandwiches and don't be afraid to ask questions, the staff will help you decide based on what you are feeling. Recommend giving them a try!
Got the Cubano and fried chicken po’boy and both were a little bland. Wish the Cubano had more sauce cause it would have been much better. Also the pork didn’t taste like anything. Maybe we got unlucky. Other reviews say these are some of the best sandwiches in Honolulu... They were extremely busy, and it took a little over 30mins to get our order.
Great sandwiches! Everything I have eaten here is delicious. The bread is perfectly sized and toasted just right - crunchy but still a bit soft. Flavor combinations are outstanding.
Great food. Opened at 1000. Sandwiches and salads.
Ordered the Bahn mi and added the steak. It’s a must try. Essentially all of their sandwiches are good and their specials are an added bonus. Takes about 10-15min to make.
BAM! This is not your parents place for sandwiches.
This place is tops for unique sandwich choices. The Chicken Poi Boy is amazing. One HUGE sandwich. Flavors galore. The garlic fries are incredible. If you dare save room for dessert - get the chocolate brownie with bacon crumbles.
Can’t wait to try another sandwich!!!
Good food. Cooks need to just be quiet and do their job
The food was great. Had the pastrami, and spicy chicken... And garlic fries... Way too much food, but I couldn't decide on which sandwich to buy. Both were delicious. Happy to have found this place within walking distance to home.
Probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! Pastrami, wagyu patty, cheese, pickles and a side of crinkle cut fries. Had outside seating and was worth the wait! I’ll be back for sure to try the other items on the menu.
Holy Cr@p! These sandwiches are awesome. A little on the high side moneywise but could easily make two meals if you aren't supper hungry. They've changed their menu a bit so if you haven't gone for a while, make another visit.
The BEST sandwiches EVER!!! True craft and attention to detail. Everything I have ever ordered is bomb! Fresh, flavorful and fulfilling. Every time. #LuckyWeLiveHawaii
Oh boy the sandwiches are surprisingly flavorful. At first I thought I had been paying an inordinate amount but it really is worth your money. The portions are large and The Steak is a very good option if you don't know what to get
Best sandwiches I've had on island. Favorites are the chicken po boy, the Drew, and the steak. Potato salad is tasty and cold brew coffee isn't bad at all for 99 cents. Staff is always friendly and the buy 10 get 1 free cards are nice.
Great sandwiches. I've been wanting to come here since they opened but never got to too now. Better later than never. This place is huge compared to their Kaimuki location. With a little more in the menu. I see a couple of burgers and some other things on the menu. I'll have to come back to try them.
The dining area seating could use some improvement and the ticket times were 20-25 minutes BUT...THE SANDWICHES ARE AMAZING!! I had the Chopped Cheese and my wife had the Po’ Boy. I would go back in the hopes they cleaned the tables a little more and the ticket times were improved.
I enjoyed the quick and simple sandwich for lunch.
I was excited to learn they were opening in Kakaako, as it's more convenient for me than their original Kaimuki location. The quality and service are just as great and friendly. Ample seating and good parking options nearby. As always, come early if you have a particular favorite sandwich, since the crowd favorites tend to sell out quickly. Even if it sells out, just try literally any other sandwich--they're all good. E.A.R.L. is my go-to for delicious, satisfying sandwiches (especially after a good workout).
Delicious sandwiches with high quality ingredients. I was surprised at how much I loved the pesto turkey salad. Also really good lilikoi lemonade!
I'm not sure what is going on here today, but out of the like 10 items on the menu they were out of 5 of them. I opted for the beet sandwich for them to tell me they are no longer carrying beets.? Ok, well, can you put avocados in place of the beets? There is an extra charge foe the avocados....lillikoi lemonade.? Oh, no sorry we are out if that too. So $16 for a tea and sandwich.
Sammies for the world! If you have anything against good bread, we’ll thought out toppings that compliment thick cut meat or veggies then you definitely not want to eat here! If you do like those things, plus some added local love, then please try this place out! I had the dip and my wife had the veggie, both of which were fantastic! Keep slinging those sammies EARL!
The fried chicken po' boy was the bomb. Crispy chicken, spicy sauce which isn't too spicy. We shared a sandwich and both left satisfied.
We have our eyes on a couple other sandwiches for our next visit. The original E.A.R.L in Kaimuki has a slightly different menu. Worth a look
Fairly long wait, parking could be a challenge, had a pastrami sandwich rate: pretty good!
One of the longest waits for a sandwich that I’ve ever had in my life. The sandwiches are mediocre for the price paid. Maybe they are working out the kinks of a new operation still, but hopefully it improves. Worth a try again!
Delicious sandwiches using unique ingredients and Hawaiian flavors. Decent beer selection! Awesome lunch spot
HUGE sandwiches to fill your belly! If you're hungry and like loaded sandwiches, stop in and try the new E.A.R.L. in Kakaako. There's a range of sandwiches, from vegan to veggie to loaded with meat! Plus every now and then they have different specials too. Sandwiches are anywhere from $10-$14 and won't leave you feeling hungry afterwards.
Not really my style. I like a sandwich that is refreshing, lite and still satisfying. I found sandwiches to be on the more heavy and meaty side.
Got the Po boy, bread was awesome, seasonings and sauce was yum, pickles ok. But the chicken just was so bouncey and flavorless. Plus shaped in a way where it made it difficult to keep it from sliding out.
Regardless I'll give it another shot, there is talent in there, just not in the Po boy
Best sandwich in Hawaii. Highly recommended. Everything tastes great. Quick service and friendly staff. Will be back for sure!
Eat. A. Rad. Lunch
The food was delicious, tasted fresh but the bread was really tough . You definitely need a dipping sauce with your sandwich to loosen up the bread .
We had the French Dip, Italian, and Cubano. All were really great, but the jalapeno fries were killer!
So tasty! Must try. We loved the fried chicken and pastrami sandwiches.
It's not what I remember
The Italian was big and one of a kind
Now its good but not the best.
-Haiku Tom
Delicious! The sandwiches are mouth watering! Make sure to stop in at Earl and get a Drew. They’re the best!!!
I had the Chicago special. It was packed with meat and spicy toppings..yummy
I got the Pastrami sandwich, It was incredible definitely recommend small sandwich shop In Kaka'ako.
They were ok. Bread for french dip was burnt, so it was very chewy. I don't plan on returning.
Theyre getting uh little too creative with the sandwich ingredients. Tasting all kinds of stuff and didnt go well together. Good service tho!
Delicious subs and great people working there.
Our sandwiches were delicious. Service was quick and friendly. We will definitely be back!
Always love coming to rolls for some of the best sandwiches on the island!
Great crew and yummy food!
Yummy sandwiches. Elevated quality Sammie's that are filling but also a little pricier than Subway.
the Cuban was great... looking forward to trying everything on the menu
Weekend special with with awesome burgers & CRINKLE FRIES! it was busy but order by phone so pickup was faster 👍🏼 …
Had the avocado Bahmi w/steak…chicken is better.
They have a vegan sandwich and a couple of vegetarian ones as well. They will validate your parking if you park in the SALT structure.
The Cubano is way ono! Especially the french / Vietnamese crispy crusty baguette bread.
Everything was amazing! 🍞 pudding, 🍫 nut 🍪, turkey salad sandwich, garlic 🍟,
and all 3 drinks mixed together! …
Awesome sandwiches with awesome side dips/sauces! My favourite is the beer braised brisket.
I've never had a bad anything from E.A.R.L. Sandwich or salad, you can't go wrong.
Best sandwiches on the island. Big fan of the French dip
Great sandwiches!! Gotta for them on the gram and keep up the specials
Must go. Get the spicy chicken sandwich! It was unreal. Bread was also crisped perfectly
Fried chicken po' boy was amazing!
Some of the best sammies in Hawaii.
Best sandwich shop on island. Wish I found it sooner.
God sandwich
E.A.R.L sandwiches is awesome. I highly recommend the cubano.
Excellent beef brisket sandwiches. I like the restaurant in Kaimuki better.
Good French Dip
BEST CHICKEN SANDWICH ON PLANET EARTH
No garlic fries here or mushroom toast, otherwise good tasting sandwiches
Best place to eat.
The food is sooo good and the portions are huge!
Whoever gave this place less than five stars doesn’t know what good food is
Great food and service, a little pricy but still great food!!
Try the French dip, banh mi, and the jalapeno fries!
I'm so grateful for the vegan almond joy sandwich.

The bomb dot com
We got the mushroom swiss burger. It was sooo delicious. The sauce inside was perfect. The bun was soft and light. They take cards and cash for payment.
Visited November 2021.
I ate CUBANO.
It was ready in about 10 minutes.
The taste was quite light,
It was quite a volume with a lot of ham sandwiched between cheese melty.
There was also a very open toilet right next to it (laughs)
A delicious sandwich shop.
The staff's customer service is also polite.
The atmosphere of the shop is also the best.
Tasty sandwiches in Kakaako.
