Food was delicious (we had the teriyaki chicken, pork, garlic chicken, macaroni salad, greens and cabbage) and it was ready in less than 15 minutes. Very covid conscious as well (staff had masks and they brought takeout right out to you in your car). Will definitely be ordering from here again!

All of the staff members are friendly, especially Luke! The quality of the food is always spot on and it's reasonably priced for a good meal. I definitely recommend!

I didn't take pictures because I was too busy eating. It took me back to Hawaii like no place has before. So yummy.

I absolutely love this place. They are top rated, and never had any issues, food is always amazing. I ask for no red pepper flakes because of chemotherapy and it burns my mouth. They always double check it.. As a veteran and local will continue to support and go here!

Always feel like family when we go in. Food is always fast and amazing. One of the best operations in Northwest Florida. Keep it up Kakela!

I took a trip to crestview after being away for 15 years. I asked my friend Kevin, where should I get lunch? Pounders.So i did.I feel like this place made 2020 somehow a little better. The food was freaking great. The worst thing I can say about my visit is that im mad they dont have a restaurant in South Florida. Ill be back in crestview again next year and will absolutely be eating here again.

Holy moly!!!! After many friends raving about this place, my husband and I decided to finally try it. They did NOT disappoint!!! I got the teriyaki chicken with white rice & leafy greens and an extra side of teriyaki sauce. My husband got the teriyaki chicken, kalua pig, white rice, macaroni salad, and leafy greens with a side of the pineapple bbq sauce. Absolutely delicious. 10/10. We WILL be returning!!

I love their food!!! Service is amazing and fast. No dining in, naturally, but you can order online or pull right up curbside and place your order. Prices are very reasonable. Most of all, FOOD IS GREAT!
The food is decent, and you get it extremely fast. Staff was friendly, food was affordable as well, my biggest complaint is that it's an insanely small menu. Only 4-5 items to choose from. I like the pork and beef, never tried the chicken. I would rate higher if there were more options.

Perfect place to stop and pick up some delicious Hawaiian food to take home. I would def recommend paying the small upgrade for the steak, but haven't had anything bad yet! Really great portion sizes as well!

Have heard good things about the restaurant and passed by it a couple of times before finally ordering take out, got the pounders platter with 3 meats etc., took 2 days to eat but was very tasty and I liked the teriyaki sauce. I think the name pounders is appropriate, its heavy food but not in a bad way, its just something I wouldn't eat every day without a defibrillator.Kidding aside, I'll definitely be back.

We ate here for lunch. Had the regular meal with garlic chicken n teriyaki chicken, rice, macaroni salad n greens. There is no dine in due to COVID. They require you order online then they bring it out to your car. Delivery was fast. Food was excellent.

I like the entire menu. Anything you order you will not be disappointed. My personal favs are teriyaki steak and chicken. Everything is well prepared. Matches the taste of similar stores in Hawaii. Summary; never had a mistake in my order, food always well prepared, good customer service, clean facility, and pleasant atmosphere. Lastly, during these COVID times, ordering online is easy and their system to get your food is well managed. From time of order to food/in-hand is about 12-15 minutes tops. Our family fully endorses this place if you want a change of pace from burger places. For protein and greens people, there is the option for healthy greens and protein of choice.
