This place is a hidden gem that is easily missed when you walk by it. Food came out really fast and the services was good. The food was homemade and I didn't feel gross afterwards. Will come back one day to try more of their food !

Ordered 20 bento and it was just great at a great price. Everyone enjoyed it. The quantity of food was a lot. Some people were not able to finish it in 1 sitting. The order was ready at the arranged time too. Thank you very much.

This was the best food we had on our trip to Kauai. I had teriyaki chicken, my husband had the broccoli beef bowl, and our kids had the breakfast special with pancakes. The food was absolutely incredible. Service was very quick and friendly. Everything was perfect! I only wish we had discovered this place before our last day on Kauai.

Delicious is an understatement! The service is friendly and seeing locals as regulars is always a sign that the food will be amazing. Thank you so much! We came here twice while visiting and will stop by first thing on our next trip!

Great food. Local hidden gem. Authentic local. Good people. Gets busy fast but the wait is worth it. It’s why there are lines sometimes but food comes out fast. Ox tail soup is bomb! Everything I’ve tried has been great!!!
Local gem that serves up delicious meals for the entire family. We visited this business twice during our visit to the island and each time we tried something different that left us wanting more! Love the people here and food. Thank you aunties!

Nice place tucked away off the main road behind McDonalds. Food was alright, and the service was spot on. Can't go wrong stopping here. I enjoyed a spam and ham omelet. Kiddos enjoyed French toast with bacon and wifey had Mac Nut pancakes.

Good solid food with giant amounts. I had the combo plate with pork adobo and beef broccoli. The broccoli was excellent as was the beef. The adobo was tender though I was thinking it would be more like the Philippino version with stronger vinegar flavor. It was delicious just not what I was craving. My friends got the super saiman soup which she loved. We both had to take leftovers home. Other friends got the saiman miso soup which had a wonderful broth and contained tons of protein types: tofu, chicken katsu, spam, beef.
A reasonably priced restaurant with good food and a sea of expensive

Great local food! Generous portions and price! I got a kalua pork loco moco. And side of veggies. Cost $25 and was delicious!!

Very sweet hole in the wall type spot that appears to have been here for about 50 years? It was breakfast time but I saw a massive bowl of soup up in the board that I couldn’t pass up. It was delicious. Literally every animal on the farm was in this soup plus some wontons of some sort with a half hard boiled egg and some fried egg too.

We ordered the loco moco and Kauai super saimin. Both dishes were good but nothing extraordinary. They have a wide selection within their menu which is great if you want a variety of dishes. The service is excellent! They treat their customers like family. Overall, solid restaurant.

A definitely must stop place! It's hard to find old school authentic style food dishes. This place still continues this type of traditional local home style cooking. At the atmosphere as you walk-in is as if you walking into Grandma's or Auntys house.
