The best macaroni salad to start. BBQ chicken over cabbage and or rice delicious. Loved the combo plate. Haven't tried the fish yet. Never judge a restaurant by the outside otherwise you'll miss out on this one.

Think about Panda Express that cooks deep fried food made to order that somehow still tastes old. That's Frannie Express. Everything tastes like corn syrup with food coloring added. The orange chicken is sickeningly sweet.I'm not quite sure how this kind of food stays open.It's basically cheap American-Chinese buffet food that they put in a fast food setting. Sweet and sour sauce from a giant can and all.

I love this Hawaiian bbq food they have good service my favorite plate is bbq beef specially with the Mac n cheese salad the only bad thing is it's very small inside but overall very good and you eat relaxed inside

My parents and I stumbled upon this shop while being in this area.Service: There was no line. The staff was very kind and patient. We waited about 10 mins for the food.Food: I ordered the BBQ Chicken. My parents got the Teriyaki Chicken Bowl and the BBQ Mix. The food was hot in temperature and it tasted pretty good. The meat was tender. I enjoyed the macaroni salad and the veggies as well.I recommend coming here if you are in the area and are looking to eat some Hawaiian BBQ.

Best Mongolian beef in a long time; since the 90's when Emeryville Public Market had the China Wok, a taqueria, and a book store.

Always a good idea to have Hawaiian food, not gunna lie. That said, had to go with the loco moco. I've had my share of loco mocos so this was a tough review. For starters there's something about a burger patty with an egg on top and closing it out with some Mac salad. This one was just ok, a bit salty tho...that's pretty much I can say ‍, i may try it again but will look around first. Eat well and aloha -ant

Plenty of dishes to choose from. Orders are made fresh so expect a few minutes of wait time but the food are delicious.

Got Mongolian Beef was dry & bland. Most items don't have a price. Menus & pictures are posted but hard to understand. My mongolian beef was $17..the most I ever paid..This was my first and last visit.
