Food is not of quality, bland taste. Pretty expensive for what you get. Little hidden fees they will charge you. You can get a better bang for your buck somewhere else

The man with glasses which is probably the owner is very rude. Dont dare ask him a question, he might kick you out of his restaurant. Will never come back here. Get some manners please

A cafeteria style restaurant that features Hawaiian style cuisine. Had the mini Katsu chicken plate with steamed rice & macaroni salad . The macaroni salad was heavy manayoise and the rice gummy texture . Good portion on the katsu .

TL:DR -
I'm definitely going to go back 😀

We tried #18 (Loco Moco) and #1 (Hawaiian BBQ Mix).

Gravy (way) too salty. I'd ask for half as much.
My partner got an extra side, since the BBQ Mix was a dry rub.

Order at the counter ‼️

I had multiple issues with the touchscreen menu 💢 and then finally had to order at the counter anyway.

Here after a Saturday smog check for my mom. Have ordered from them before through DoorDash. Got BBQ Mixed Plate last time they was bomb af. Getting 2 item combo Short Ribs & Chicken Teriyaki today. From what I remember, their mac salad was really tasty compared to others, too.

Great chicken katsu, loved the sauce! Nice local spot

One of the best Hawaiian spots hands down. Don't miss this lil hole in the wall!

This is the definition of a hole-in-the-wall place. The decor is bare bones, the place is old, but what they lack in atmosphere, they more than make up for in deliciousness.

I've been here a couple times and the food is consistently good. Always made fresh and pretty quick.

The food is fantastic and affordable. Not sure what else you'd want.

Customer service was amazing and the food was just as good. I got the chicken katsu and the portion size was huge for a good price. It can with a big amount of sauce and the chicken was beautifully crispy. Definitely exceeded my expectations and will be coming back.
