Big City Diner Ward, LLC - Honolulu

PF Chang's is always good no matter where I've eaten.

Food: Pretty Good, and standard with other mainland PF Chang's! Decor: Has an open concept, that invites in natural lighting, a nice breeze and a few

We came in for dessert- deserves 5 stars for that bread pudding with delicious vanilla bean icecream and macadamia nuts! They drizzle it with some haupia sauce that is so divine!! The service is lacking, here, however... they're super friendly but they're not very efficient. We saw our dessert come out on the counter but the server wasn't paying any attention and it just sat there for over 5 minutes. We finally said something to the waiter because we didn't want our icecream to melt from the bread pudding. It's a diner... I want to see the hustle and bustle of a diner. Plus half the restaurant was dark.. not sure if they were trying to conserve energy because half the restaurant was empty. However, it didn't feel so inviting in there. This place has huge potential because the dessert is BOMB! My son loved the oreo sundae... which is not even a sundae... it's a big plate of delicious icecream with oreos and hot fudge! Yummy!

Its a standard Big City Diner located by the Ward Theaters. It has all the locals faves, HH specials and weekly specials. Noteworthy are the chili bowls w/rice. Mammoth portions. Soup of the day was prime rib! Had to get it! Clear beef broth, chunks of soft confetti meats and pieces of yellow corn kernels. Wed are 1/2 price wine Wed!

Dinner in Honolulu... This location of Big City Diner is the closest to the Ward Consolidated Theaters. That means it's very convenient and popular with its free parking! I've been here many times and have enjoyed menu items such as salads, pork chops, and most recently, the Chicken Parmesan linguine with Roasted garlic bread...mmm! I haven't had pasta in a while, so I gobbled it up! Big City Diner has rotating week night specials which come with soup or salad. Last night, I got the Blackened ahi salad with Cream of Mushroom soup. The Blackened ahi was a bit spicy for me. The soup wasn't as thick as others and it had corn in it! Travis was our efficient server. He brought me a free refill of Coke, gave us dressing on the side, and let us have a different wasabi sauce for our ahi. He even got extra romaine lettuce for Jules in place of tomatoes! Thank you! We probably will return since this restaurant is right under the theater entrance! Bonus: they participate in Yelp Cash Back!
