We were craving pastele so we stopped by WAT GET?... kitchen (never tried them yet). You know it's gonna be ono when you see a customer holding 4 plates rushing to her car and telling us (while she's driving away) eh grab da "hapa plate" I've been coming here for 10 + yrs just for that... you won't regret it " she knew was our first time cause I was taking pictures of everything . We ended up getting ala carte pasteles and pastele stew. These were the best I've had, super ono. Need to go back to get the rest of the menu. Oh and the owner is the sweetest man too. Talking story about his furbabies and even told us how to reheat the pastele.

I come here often for their amazing pastele plate and salad (if you like zesty flavor sauce for your salad, it'll be life changing).. made a review because no one is updating the menu prices for 2025 here.. Needing to know the price is important because it is CASH ONLY. Average price for main entrèes/ plates is roughly $20 for one person. Service is good. You're served by the owners.. Either Auntie or Uncle.. both always do their best to greet you properly and be professional with serving you're food in a timely manner. Best to do phone calls if you're a regular, wanting to get in n get out w/ you're food. If no one is in front/ no other customers are waiting.. food for two people would take about 15-20'minutes. No seating. No chairs or tables to sit. Only counter between kitchen and waiting/ordering area. You can see the kitchen and it's pretty pristine clean and all ingredients and equipment are reasonably placed/ put in proper containers. Stainless steel style with orange wall interior. Best thing to get as a first timer is ultimate pastele plate.. basically a sampler to have one of everything from here. It can be addicting ,so be aware haha..

Best to call in your order, it's like a one man service there but it's worth the wait time. The plates are worth it, I always get the Hapa Plate, which includes one Pastele, Gandale Rice, and my favorite, the Bacalau salad with the slice of boiled Green Banana, I highly recommend any of their plates. Bring Cash, no cards. Very nice man, when I was trying to look for a nickle, to complete my sale, he told me it was alright, he got it. But I found it and just dropped it in the tip jar, now that's service with the local kine Aloha. It's always my "go to place" for Pastele , you gotta try the Bacalau Salad, I'm addicted to it.

I love this spot!!!! I cannot tell you how happy I was to come across this spot when I moved from town. Their menu is super basic and they are good at what they do!!!! Their pateles are probably the best I've had that weren't from a truck in the side of the road on the west side. They have plates, as well as Ala cart items to take and cook at home. You absolutely do not want to miss out on Mom' empanadilla. They have three types, patele, sweet passion fruit and cheese. The crust is tender and flaky and delicious. This is a small shop and takeout is your only option so pick a spot in the area to eat before you pick up your food and enjoy a picnic with your delicious grub from Wat Get. Staff is always super friendly and the service is quick.

I just found THE best Puerto Rican food in Waipahu!! Wat Get Kitchen is it! Hole in the wall food establishment in Waipahu near the bus depot. It's small and simple, no dine in but there is a small table outside the establishment if you want to eat it fresh or sit in your vehicle. The parking lot is small. Tbh, I was a little apprehensive because I LOVE a good pastele and pastele stew and did not want to be disappointed. I figured, what the heck. I ordered 2 pastele. No choice of mild or hot but it is PERFECT, not too mild...not too hot! It was simple but soooo good! My husband had the pastele stew with gandule rice and OMGeeeeee, I was caught by surprise because it was deliciousness!! The food was fresh! You can have the pastele hot or to take home and heat up yourself. We chose hot because we wanted to eat it right away. I am super stoke I can get pastele any time now and not go very fair! It's right down the road from Elena's! If you love this type of food and was on the hunt trying to find the right one, I advise you to go and try this place. Just once. You will not regret it.

What a great guy running that shop!! He chit-chatted with my dad while preparing his food all by himself. You could absolutely feel the love for people as well as for his food which he proudly shares. I don't eat meat so I can't speak for the food, but my dad loves it, especially the bacalao salad. We go as often as we can get out there. It is a pick up only restaurant with lots of parking available. Please check him out!

Been craving for some pasteles lately, so I went to Wat Get to satisfy that! Small shop that's take out and cash only. It's pretty straightforward with what they offer. Pastele, pastele stew, gandule rice, panadilla both savory and sweet. Bacalao salad with plantains gave the perfect level of acidity to the plate. The gandule rice underneath the pastele was too good. One ultimate plate costs about $25 if I remember correctly. There was only one lady working there when I went so a little patience will go a long way. I promise the food is worth the wait!

Wat Get Kitchen serves their customers authentic food from Puerto Rico. The flavors of each item have their own identities, which gives your flavor pallet something to look for. The baccalao: fresh and crisp lettuce leaves topped with a tart (vinegarette like) dressing. Pastele: a lightly seasoned pork stew filled in a plantain masa steamed in a husk until soft. Gandule Rice: rice cooked with beans and pork gives a neutral and very light flavor. Bianca was very welcoming and friendly. She recommended I try their cheese panadillas, and experiencing how good the pasteles are, I'm coming back to try anything she recommends. Bright color scheme yet with a dark interior as you enter to the order window. It overlooks the entire kitchen where they create the awesome food. Payment Cash only Parking Private lot with 2 reserved stalls for wat get

This place was out of the city in Waipahu but worth the drive! No dine in but you can either eat outside or order to go! The fresh Pastele Stew over Gandule Rice was super yum, the fresh Panadillas (their take on Empanadas) was doughy but a good doughy filled with their Pastele stew, it was divine! Of course that's us, you decide! Now, the Pastele's ... those were fresh, tasty and OMG! Everything was Fresh OMG yummy even had a Baklava Salad! Get there when they open, beat the rush cause they sell out fast, if you miss it, no worries Bianca will make you a batch just come back in an hour or call your order in! Ask for Cody or Bianca! Hey you can even mention to Bianca that Robertta from San Francisco sent you! Please leave them a well deserved tip!
