“They literally see me at least once a week. ITS MY FAVORITE GO TO FOR CHICKEN KATSU =) They are always nice, polite, helpful and prepare the food quickly with 0 errors. yum!I also recommend the teriyaki salmon!!!!Parking: Shares parking lot with many other things you ae bound to find a parking spot somewhere.“
“Their chicken and rice is delicious I usually ask for no onions in my salad and they're able to work with me but not this last visit they weren't able to do so. Their food might be pricey by one plate usually lasts me two servings. Definitely recommend the teriyaki chicken Aloha plate.“
“I arrived around 11 am, finding the place pleasantly quiet. Placing a to-go order, I was delighted to discover that the food exceeded my expectations, capturing the anticipated flavors perfectly. In an industry that often goes unnoticed, this restaurant deserves a commendation for maintaining consistent food quality and lightning-fast service. I look forward to revisiting in the future, as they offer ample, affordable portions that truly stand out.“
“Was working in Oakland, and stopped here for some lunch. The food was very good. The service was excellent. A** for the ambiance, it was a nice clean well kept establishment. The selections I chose were well prepared, the house ranch and Teriyaki sauce were good as well. A definite must try if in the area.“
“I wish I had taken a photo because it was prepared in an appealing way, seriously food porn. Now let me tell you... the poke I got with tuna and hamachi was off the charts. So fresh! I had chunky pieces of sushi till my last bite and I only got the small size, the portions were perfect. The sides were delicious, I got the Mac salad and edamame. The shoyu, ponzu and yuzu sauces were so tasty. I also got the spicy mayo and it was perfectly spiced. All of the toppings were fresh as well and they were not cheap on the avocado! The service was fantastic from the moment I walked in. They were busy getting orders ready but did not miss a beat when greeting me. Super helpful in checking in while I was reading the menu and deciding. They didn't forget to check in again and had perfect timing when realizing I was ready to order. Answered all of my questions, I didn't have too many questions but the responses were quick and descriptive. Everyone was attentive, polite and friendly. The ambiance was bright, energetic and perfect for lunch. I came in just before lunch started. Enjoyed my meal at the restaurant and had to give compliments because I was very impressed!!“
“The BBQ beef and the BBQ Chicken is Amazing!!!! hands down best food in the area! Super reasonably priced and parking is easy. So good you will want to go every day! Plus the guy you oder with knows the menu back and forth and can help make suggestion.“
“I really REALLY recommend this place for family and friends the food is AMAZING ever since I tried the tacos I could not stop going here every day. The service is ok there in the middle for fast food because sometimes they have to many orders and they go really slow but over all it’s great . The atmosphere needs a little more decor kinda boring just seeing a table and you food.“
“I've ordered takeout from ILava a couple times on Doordash. Their orders have been tasty, with pretty good portion size relative to the price (these days). I've had their Chicken Combo Plate (Chicken Katsu and Chicken Teriyaki), Walnut Prawns and the Curry Chicken (BBQ Chicken with Curry Sauce instead of the teriyaki sauce). Their normal plates come with two scoops of rice and one scoop of macaroni salad. Compared to some of the other Hawaiian places in the area, this is probably one of my new favorites.“
“This has to be one of those hole in the wall Chinese spots that if you quickly drove by, you wouldn't have realized it was a gold mine! First off, quality of their food was amazing! After getting back home with our to go box, the fried food was still CRISPY. It was the crispy fish filet that sold us! Wow, batter was amazing, fluffy and did I say... crispy? Let's talk about the service, upon walking in I was immediately greeted with a friendly hello and smile by a younger girl who looked like she was probably helping her family's business, scooping away filing orders and still able to friendly greet me. Ambience was more to go style but they did have some tables and benches you'd be able to enjoy your food at. Parking might also be hard to come by since it's on a main busy street as well. We will be back to support!!“
