Rainbow Drive-In

Old School Ono Grinds

Drive-ins were a dime a dozen back in the ‘60s, but these days it’s rare to find one still in operation, especially in this newly dressed-up version of Honolulu. Nostalgia kicks in at the Rainbow Drive-In where the original plate lunch menu boards still hang above the counter and list Ono choices like chili rice, teriyaki beef, and grilled mahi. And the best part: you can stuff yourself without denting your pocketbook. The portions are big, the food is tasty and the price is right. Oh yeah, and did we mention this is Obama’s favorite Hawaiian restaurant?
