Why go
Nin Nin Curry works when you want an easy, casual curry meal in Waikiki without turning dinner into a production. Treat it as a convenient Honolulu stop rather than a polished special-occasion booking, especially because verified details on menu, pricing, hours, seating, service format are not available here.
About Nin Nin Curry
Nin Nin Curry is a Honolulu venue with a casual dress code. It is best framed as a low-formality option rather than a venue to choose for awards, chef details, menu structure, pricing, hours, or seating format.
A casual Honolulu option for informal plans
The clearest planning detail is the casual dress code. That makes Nin Nin Curry easier to consider for an informal visit than for a highly planned occasion where you need service style, room setup, menu format, or other specifics in advance. If the plan needs a more detailed occasion match, use Pearl's Honolulu restaurants guide to compare other Honolulu dining rooms.
Who should choose it
Choose Nin Nin Curry if you want a casual Honolulu option and do not need a long list of planning details. Be more cautious if you are arranging a business event, milestone occasion, or group plan that depends on seating, timing, dietary, or service information. For broader trip planning, there is also a guide to Honolulu bars.
Quick reference: best considered as a casual Honolulu option; not the pick when you need highly specific details before booking or visiting.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Nin Nin Curry presents as a straightforward, neighbourhood-minded curry counter on Kalakaua Avenue. The copy positions it within Waikiki’s long-standing Japanese culinary presence, emphasizing comfort and repeat visits over culinary theater. It reads as an unpretentious, classic take on Japanese curry rice — weekday food that locals know and return to — rather than a tourist-oriented novelty or an elevated tasting menu. The tone is casual and familiar, and the emphasis on embedded community traditions gives the spot a grounded, dependable character in a busy stretch of Honolulu dining.
Best For
This is a place for casual weekday meals and easy, unfussy dining. The description frames curry rice as comfort food that attracts a repeat-visit crowd, which makes Nin Nin Curry a natural stop for solo diners, quick lunches, or straightforward dinners rather than special-occasion tasting menus. Its location on Kalakaua Avenue means it sits amid both tourist traffic and longstanding local institutions, so it suits visitors who want a neighbourhood-style curry experience and locals looking for reliable, comforting food.
Ordering Tips
Plan ahead around peak visitor times: the write-up warns that Kalakaua Avenue gets heavy foot traffic in peak seasons and popular spots can run waits. Expect counter-style service and a focus on quick, weekday-friendly curry dishes rather than extended, multi-course meals. If you prefer to avoid lines, aim for off-peak hours on weekdays; if you embrace the repeat-visit mentality, come prepared to make this a comfortable, straightforward stop on multiple visits rather than a one-off destination.
