Barbecue Kai is a local drive-in restaurant that offers mini and regular plate lunches, including the popular chicken katsu and double cheeseburger. The portions are generous, and the katsu sauce and mac salad are praised for their authentic flavors. The restaurant is known for its affordable prices compared to fast-food chains and is a favorite among locals, with catered short ribs and BBQ chickens being a highlight. Customers often praise the friendly staff and the quality of the large-portioned burgers. Many visitors love the fried rice, which is considered the best on the island and available at a great price for larger groups. The restaurant is cash-only, but the service remains consistently good. Nearby Pokai Bay adds a beautiful spot to enjoy the meal or relax after dining. The mix combo plate with chicken katsu and other local style dishes receives high praise, especially for its huge servings and delicious taste, making it a top spot for lunch or dinner.
