I have been wanting to try this spot, so I went today. I got a 3 item combo, and I got the curry, sausage and mussels. SO DELICIOUS!! It comes with a choice of sides, I got rice & banana - next time trying the taro. The lamb curry is so flavorful and the sausage is mild, reminiscent of snags I have had in Australia. The mussels were in a lovely sauce, with coconut and a hint of maybe pineapple? Outstanding!! I also picked up a strawberry jam bun & a coconut bun - but now I'm too full, so will taste those in a short while. I'll be back!!

I think my opinion is because I'm used to Poly Grill, and Poasas in Carson. I had the lamb curry, 2 sausages, and 2 individual pieces of Mamoe. The curry was spoiled, the sausages and Momoe looked like they have been sitting for a while and they tasted like they looked. Also they are pretty stingy with the portions not at all what you would expect from a Samoan hot food plate. 16.99 for a 4 item plate with 1 sausage being one item. The oka was tasty but it was spicy. It had pepper ? flakes in it which I don't really like but the flavor was pretty tasty.

The food is delicious and service was so fast and friendly. We got lucky and caught a batch of fresh meat pies with our lunch. Everything was A++. Even my picky autistic son loved the food. He's eating a turkey tail in the pic!

Stop by on a random google search for Samoan food and was surprised of how good this place was. You can always tell when food is cooked with passion and care, this place was one of those. The Oka alone was worth the trip and rest was also delicious. Will visit again!!!!
Service and food was fantastic best Polynesian place in

Food is good but I would refrain from ordering, or paying for any cooked food that is not readily available in the kitchen. We had paid in advance for a tray of panipopo and a tray of their yummy cooked muscles. However, when we got home from picking up the order, we discovered that the tray of panipopo -- was actually still raw -- i.e., the dough was still sticky and was not edible so we had to throw the whole tray out. The half size pan -- not the full size pan -- was filled with muscles but -- OMG -- it was not degutted or let alone cooked. Basically, someone had poured the raw muscles in the pan, followed by the coconut mix and literally handed it to us, raw. What the?? Unfortunately, we didn't figure this out until we got home and because we are extremely busy people, we never had time to go back and request a refund. Instead -- we just frequent other polynesian food markets in the OC and Long Beach.

Purchased in advanced (Months in advanced) some food item for a special event. Turns out, was told last minute the day before that the’ve run out of said item. And just an apology and a refund. Wasted alot of time precious time for such a grand occasion.
Food it always fresh ? ?
