- How many restaurants are on the Oahu Food Map?
- Right now the map has 1918 restaurants spread across Oahu — from Waikiki and Ala Moana to the North Shore. It's a working list, not a closed directory: spots get added as we find them and drop off when they close.
- How is the map updated?
- We refresh the map every week. New spots get added, closed ones get removed, and info like addresses or phone numbers gets fixed when readers or owners flag something off. Hours shown on restaurant pages come from Google and can be behind — always double-check before you drive out.
- Which neighborhoods have the most spots?
- The densest areas on the map are Waikiki (229), North Shore (140), Kapolei (103). Waikiki and the Honolulu core dominate because that's where most tourists eat, but there's solid coverage in Kakaako, Kaimuki, and up the windward side too.
- Can I filter by cuisine or price?
- Yeah — use the search bar or the neighborhood tiles on the map view to narrow things down. You can also filter by Open Now if you need somewhere that's serving right this minute, or hit Near Me to sort by distance from where you're standing.
- What does Nate's pick mean?
- The map is a working list of Oahu restaurants, browsable by neighborhood, cuisine, and what's open. Nate's pick marks the 30 spots I stand behind.
