The man who worked here when we came in in mid November was the epitome of aloha. So kind and welcoming. We had never been before and took his time to explain the menu and make suggestions. For parents travelling with three kids you feel like a burden on a small restaurant like this but again, he was so welcoming to all of us. The Miso garlic katsu was our favorite! So so good. The lamb was also super yummy. Chicken katsu was good, just not as good as the other two.
Food was amazing. Even after I was stuffed I still kept eating! I ordered a Chicken Katsu and it was the best Katsu I've ever had. Better than all those other fancy restaurants! Small restaurant but it deserves way more. Such a hidden gem.
We arrived just before they closed and they were super nice. Made sure to get our order in and did not turn us away. Friendliest people Ive met so far... not to mention the food was beyond amazing. The shrimp curry, chicken curry and pita were the best I've ever had and the potato salad was phenomenal. Simple but flavorful with the perfe t blend of egg and crunch
