The Alley at Aiea Bowl on Aiea Heights Drive in Aiea has been one of Oahu’s most celebrated bowling alley restaurants since it opened, serving the kind of scratch-made comfort food that earns a bowling center restaurant its destination reputation in a state where bowling alley food is taken seriously enough to earn a DDD segment. It appeared in Season 19, Episode 12 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Righteous Bites,” which aired June 6, 2014. Guy Fieri found an Oahu bowling alley kitchen doing comfort food from scratch at a level that earns a place the right to be judged on the food alone rather than the context it’s served in.

What to Eat
The Loco Moco — rice, hamburger patty, fried egg, and house-made brown gravy — is the Hawaiian comfort food classic done with the quality that earns a bowling alley restaurant its DDD segment. The Saimin with house-made broth and noodles is the Hawaii-specific noodle soup that has been a bowling alley staple across the islands since the mid-20th century. The Plate Lunch with your choice of protein, two scoops of rice, and macaroni salad is the Hawaiian comfort food format that defines what a good Oahu lunch looks like.
