Chan's Waikiki

Paramus, New Jersey, United States

Dates uncertain, but open at least as early as 1968 and appears to have been open into the mid 1990s.

This was one in a chain that also included Chan's Hawaii Inn in Mahwah and Chan's Dragon Inn in Ridgefield.

Chan's Waikiki had three dining rooms and a bar‐lounge separated by bamboo dividers to maintain an intimate atmosphere. The Polynesian decor included island masks on red walls, some chunk resin swag lamps, artificial flowers, stuffed birds, a fountain and a fish pool, and a background of soft Hawaiian music.

Now home to Chakra Restaurant.
