The best Hawaiian food in the Midwest

Great service and great food. Run by some really nice people. The prices might seem like much but a regular plate can easily feed two people.
Only nitpick would be I wish they seasoned the mac salad a little more.

I think that if I was looking for traditional comfort food it would be fine, we had the mocoloco but to me it was so bland. A few green onions or some mushrooms would have really gone a long way. I wish I had the spam musubi instead. The sodas were yummy but overpriced.

I got the BBQ Beef Plate which comes with a side of mac salad and white rice. I like how you have the option to swap out your sides with more rice or other sides from their menu. The bbq beef is chopped into small pieces and was almost a little too sweet at times. Better when you mix it in with rice or mac salad.
The mac salad could have had more flavor. It slightly missed the mark and didn’t transport me back to Hawaii like some of the other mac salads I’ve had out here.
I also got the Mini Hamburger Steak which was the star of the show. It’s basically a loco moco without the egg. It came with two hamburger patties smothered in gravy with two sides. I recommend getting an extra side of brown gravy like I did so you have extra when mixing in with the rice. So good and I would get this dish over and over again!

One of my wife's and my favorite spots to go get delicious food. We always try to stop by when we are in the area.
I love this place soo much and known about it for years. No one else can do it better. Best Hawaiian food restaurant in the city. Faithfully order lunch for work all the time. My absolute favorite! Food is fresh and tastes soo good every time. Moco Loco and Chiken Katsu plates are my go too.

As someone from O’ahu born n raised, living in the Midwest is a nightmare because I can never find food from home. Aloha eats is my savior fr. The katsu sauce broke da mout faaaaa realz, tastes just like L&L and Lilihas sauce. A lot of Hawaiian places will bread the Katsu Japanese style, but these guys bread it Hawaiian style so it stays crispier longer. They also use dark meat, which is the way to do it in the islands. Hoouuu the Mac salad is BDM cuz taste like dakine any manini plate lunch place. I like try the Portuguese sausage egg and rice cause I haven’t found Hawaiian style Portuguese sausage anywhere here yet. Cheeehu guyz 🤙🏽 much love
Everyone needs this mom and pop Hawaiian gem on their radar! It’s one of those perfect Chicago finds you stumble upon on a walk. Everything we ordered was fantastic and the homemade macaroni salad tastes like something your Granny would make! We will definitely be back and highly recommend the place!
