Came here with a friend that is a regular here. I had the beef & mahi mahi combo plate, which includes their macaroni salad and lettuce salad. The beef didn't taste fresh as if it was premade and warmed up in a microwave. The mahi mahi was better, but overcooked 30 seconds too long. The highlight of my meal were their salads. By the way, if you get a combo with a drink-soda, it's a can and not from their soda dispenser.
The owners were very friendly and showed me the kitchen since I had inquired about their business for sale sign. I was quite appalled from what I saw. Their kitchen was filthy; it was like something from Kitchen Nightmare with Gordon Ramsay. It appears they haven't cleaned their kitchen in months. I've been in quite a few kitchens since I was previously a business broker and helped restauranters. This place has got to be the dirtiest kitchen I've ever been in. I'm shocked they received an A rating from LACHD.
I will never eat here again. I wish the owners much success in selling their business.

Hawaiian chicken wings is where it’s at . Call in advance as they may take long to make but definitely worth the wait. Super fresh. The scent of the spices used aromatizes the air. So crispy and scrumptious, it’s hard to not want more. Tastes delicious fresh off the kitchen and even cold as left overs. Service was kind and friendly.

Food is delicious. I ordered the spicy chicken bowl. For the price they are very generous with their portions. Service is fast. I recommend calling in for your order. As they cook it when you place it, it can take 20 minutes or more to cook. Atmosphere can be better, but if you're going for takeout, it doesn't matter.

This is a exact example of whole in the wall. This place has been here forever with the same husband and wife working it. The food is always delicious but I prefer to go here
No frills mom and pop joint with generous and delicious portions. One of the best teriyaki spots in the South Bay.

Ordered wings, fried wonton, and potato salad. Typically, they're good. But this last time, the wings and wonton were too oily.

Fried noodles. Decent taste. I would order again. Price on Maps menu is incorrect, its almost $12.
I came here several times a year before the owner change, food was much better. Teri beef sandwich was good. Then I was here a few years ago after the owner change. I will return.
U need to come here Your money goes a long way Plenty of food very humble staff

Samin is super clean and delish. Korean ribs are good too. They are run by elderly couple so may not be as fast as other restaurants but still worth it for waiting.

I absolutely loveeee this place I found it a couple years ago and highly recommend to all my friends and family ! I always get the Chinese chicken salad and spam musubi. Yes, wait time is expected but there is only moms n pops working in the back ! Everything is made at time of order so it’s super fresh and extremely delicious 10/10 the best family Hawaiian restaurant in South Bay!!
