Ordered some dinner here of 3 different options of the teriyaki chicken, beef short ribs, and katsu chicken. All platters were an immense amount of food, and you could feel the weight of the food in the to-go bag. I was shocked when opening the carton to see what seemed like 2-3lbs of meat, 1lb of rice, and some macaroni salad. I will say the food is more fast food vibes and not high-end quality, but for the price you pay and the amount of food you get. I would say it is worth it.
Great flavor from the teriyaki chicken that had a long-lasting marinade you can taste. I would definitely recommend people to get the chicken katsu or the beef ribs because the flavor is just a lot better than the teriyaki chicken, although good, is just very generic.
The macaroni salad and the spam musubi are also very nice little appetizers! Again, would recommend it as a lunch stop and definitely taking some seconds home because of the amount of food you get. It's a cool spot with a few seats and usually not crazy packed. The guy at the front was very helpful and great at service.
Vegetarian options: They have some macaroni salad and coleslaw
Dietary restrictions: Definitely carnivore friendly as you can just get a huge amount of beef, teriyaki chicken, and eat that as the main meal
Some keto options as well
Parking: Plenty of free parking in front of the store and even by the Target parking lot
Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome, and I see families hanging out after baseball and soccer games
Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps for access and doors are always open - they have some seating available as well

The amount of food is crazy in this place. If you order the plate then it is enough for 2-3 people. If you don't want to have leftovers do the small/mini ones. The food was good with a ton of meat. There are a lot of options too like teriyaki chicken, BBQ beef, ribs, fish, etc. The only thing is every time I visited there there was always something way too salty, sometimes the chicken sometimes the BBQ beef.

Worst place ever they close at 8:55pm and i came in at 8:30 to order they had everything all clean out can’t even get sauce on your own by the time i came they had 3 sauces left in a little pan and the server that helped me had a bit of a attitude when i came in as if coming in to order bothered them. The vibe wasn’t it at all worst experience ever!!!! The food is good don’t get me wrong but after a long day at work i don’t want to go to a restaurant where im not welcomed or I don’t feel welcomed.

We visited this cozy Hawaiian BBQ place during a team lunch. It's tucked into the Crossroads Plaza, which has limited parking near the restaurant—but don’t worry, you can easily park at the nearby Target and take a short walk.
The restaurant itself is small with limited seating, so it might not be ideal during peak hours. However, the food and value definitely make up for it! Hawaiian BBQ places are known for their generous portions, and this one didn’t disappoint. A regular plate is easily enough for two people.
Our group tried the chicken katsu, BBQ platter, and seafood mix. The chicken katsu and BBQ platter were a bit too greasy but good and satisfying. The seafood mix was decent; the fish was slightly under-seasoned but paired well with the sauce provided.
The staff was friendly, and service was quick—probably because we came during off-peak hours. For the price, the portions and quality are excellent, leaving you feeling full and content.
Would definitely recommend for a casual lunch or takeout if you're in the area!

I have been getting takeout from here for years. The portions are tremendous and are easily enough for two hungry people. The staff is always friendly. I wish they had an Online Ordering option that didn’t require a fee.

This is the first time I went here to this place and I was very disappointed. Me and my boyfriend looking for place to eat and we found this and caught my eyes was the short ribs and chicken katsu so we went here. After ordering food and got our orders I was disappointed see the short ribs looks so dry. The portion of the food is alot. When I tried the short ribs it doesn’t have any flavor at all I was so disappointed and the chicken katsu is fine however when I look at the chicken the chicken looks so old. I know if the chicken is raw or old but this one is old chicken. The chicken katsu has this smell like it’s so fishy. I don’t know if they use the same oil they use to cook the fish or the chicken creating that smell. Never go to this place it’s so bad even the place smells. We spend $47 here and this is the food quality we got how disappointed we are, if i’m able to get a refund I will because it’s not worth it. I can go to other places that has better food flavor and better prices. I even end up throwing my food away because there’s no point of bringing it with me cause I know I won’t eat it. I read all the previous reviews from few years ago and I may say this place looks like still the same they don’t know how to cook and they don’t know how to use good quality fresh meats. Replace the old meats you have in the fridge/freezer and cook fresh once to serve to customers. Do you guys have no money to replace the old meats to new fresh meats or what ? I cook better than you guys and i don’t use old meats and I don’t use the same oil for fish for meats. If i’m able not to give star I WON’T because this place doesn’t deserve star, No Rating at all.
Keep in mind always read the reviews don’t get fooled by how many stars they have. I bet they’re lying about the stars rating they have. They deserve only 1 star or 0 star.
What a SCAM
***I HIGHLY NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE***

Best bang for your buck by far! The amount or food piled into this white takeout container is endless. Good enough for me and my husband to share or have enough for leftovers! The katsu and barbecue chicken/beef are always consistently delicious! We usually order online and go in to pick up to avoid the busy lineups! There's a few seating options inside, but I wouldn't recommend how much foot traffic is there. Service is prompt and friendly.
