Panang Poutine was amazing!We were staying in the area for two nights and after getting takeout here the first night it was so good we ordered from here again. It did not disappoint! We got Pad Thai, General Tsao's, Panang Poutine (twice), Panang Curry and then a different sushi each night. All were amazing!We got everything with medium spicy and it definitely had a good kick to it. Other places tend to treat medium as mild but not here -- I'd only go up to Spicy if you really like spicy foods.

We decided to check this place out since we were in the area. It sounded interesting. The Hawaiian theme is everywhere but it’s done well. The service was great and we both enjoyed everything we ordered. I was surprised at how spicy my chicken was when I ordered medium. Just beware that medium is very spicy.

Bruh! Ono food. Best Hawaiian local like food since living in Hawaii I have had since moving back to the mainland. Kalbi and Saimin were fantastic. Service was excellent. Highly recommend.

My husband and I stopped in to grab a quick bite and martinis (for me) on my birthday last Thursday, 3/14. This was my 2nd time there and my husband's first visit. My first visit was great and I was excited to introduce the restaurant to him. The food was great and the bartender was an extremely pleasant man who knew how to make good lychee martinis. The waitress, on the hand, was horrible. She brought the wrong sushi order (avocado) to the table, loudly chastised my husband about the order stating he ordered the avocado and crab sushi. She removed the avocado sushi with the nastiest attitude, and then NEVER returned with his correct crab sushi roll, confirming our suspicion that she never input the correct crab sushi order. I shared my soup with him. Her complete disrespect and neglect supersede the great taste of my soup. The horrible experience tainted my birthday evening.

I have been here at least twice. Nice extensive menu. Enjoyed my unagi bowl in January. The place has neat decorations and it is convenient to access by public transport or driving.

This place has the BEST fried rice I have ever tried. I went around all of Chicago trying fried rice since I'm a sucker for it and no one can beat the recipe here! Something about the way its seasoned gives it a huge punch of flavor.Also the atmosphere is fun as well

The food is good which is why I'm giving 3 stars. We got the loko moko. It was a huge portion and pretty tasty, enough for two people. However - when I asked for a fork and spoon, they said they only provide chopsticks for to go orders. I guess that's fine but then when I asked for napkins, they said they don't provide those either! How is that possible? They have soups and other things that are really hard to eat with just chopsticks. And then no napkins for anything? That's just ridiculous. I wouldn't come here again. Editing my review to 1 star based on the owner's response. So unprofessional.

Tiki bar in the south loop, has a solid but small selection of drinks, but more than makes up for it with the food. There's a nice selection of poke, sushi, and other fusion dishes.Decor is pretty nice and there are a lot of mugs available for purchase as well.There is a small stage they'll have live music at twice a month
Second time here and the service, staff and food were fantastic!Friendly and helpful waitresses. More than enough food for one person with amazing flavor and taste. Service was fast and will return soon. Amazing experience and keep it up! ??

I LOVE THIS PLACE! The people are so polite and welcoming, that I can feel that they truly appreciate my business. I'm hooked on the ribs, however, everything I've ever eaten here is absolutely wonderful! Just a fantastic place, I look forward to my next visit.

This was such a great spot to try for lunch while we were in the city for the day! I am vegan but my husband is not, and it’s always nice to go to places where we both have plenty of options. The portions were large (we both had leftovers), the food came out quickly and was piping hot, and everything was very flavorful. Would definitely come back again sometime to try other items on the menu!

Fun, fun, fun ambience! It's liking walking onto the film set of Blue Hawaii. Gracious service, great selection of Hawaiian, fusion, and Asian food and drinks. No reservations needed for parties below 5.
