This place is closed/out of business in Macon.Food was surprisingly good as the atmosphere was that of several failed restaurants (mismatched chairs/tables, decoration, wallpaper, etc). Food was really good though, as they had these pork burnt ends that were delicious.Business is now closed in Macon, phone number disconnected, but website says they have a location in Chillicothe.

Aloha All, I would recommend this restaurant. Being from da island and not having any island food here is Missouri. It was great to go to this little restaurant in Macon and have a taste of da Island. So please try this Hawaiian restaurant. I would totally recommend them. Mahalo to da owners Aloha Nui Lao

Amazing food! Traveling from IL passing through MO and saw this place pop up on maps. I used to live in CA and often enjoyed Hawaiian food but haven't had anything as good in over 10 years. Definitely worth stopping at, food is great and super fresh! Staff was all super kind too.

Didn’t think you could find great Hawaiian food in Macon, MO! We were traveling along Us 36 and decided to give it a try. This was a great find in Macon. Food and service were great!

Was extremely happy with this find in Macon! The prices were great, with only $8 for a lunch plate that filled me up. My coworker got the teriyaki burger and loved it. I got the garlic chicken lunch plate. The chicken was really good, tasted like fried chicken with some extra flavor from the sauce. I would have liked more of the sauce on them. The macaroni salad was good, pretty typical of other Hawaiian places I've had. I'll definitely stop in again if passing through Macon.

The cook and the server were so sweet. I have been wanting to try a poke bowl for years and they didn’t disappoint. I tried to make fish at home and it wound up smelling like swamp water. Their poke bowl was delicious. The fish was melt in your mouth with no fishy smell or taste. Very savory. I asked for non spicy. It still had a pretty good kick but everything in the bowl leveled it out. My daughter remarked on how sweet the cook and server was. She was so excited to leave a tip. My daughter got a mini plate and I got a bowl. Neither of us could finish our food without being wheeled out in a wheelchair. 10/10 would recommend.

Aloha and E Komo Mai! This spot is legit, local kine grinds. It was like being back home on the islands for lunch. Our server was attentive and quick; the owner took a moment to say hello- she is both warm and kind, embodying the spirit of Aloha. The food was exceptional and the price was great! They even have real Hawaiian Shave Ice, giving Matsumoto a run for their money. We will be regulars and are so thrilled to find this gem. It really is a bit of Aloha.

Excellent food and attentive service. I had the poke bowl with yummy sauce, side of macaroni salad, and a macaroon cookie. Very good. Very affordable. Atmosphere is very casual.

Had to wait a long time to get waited on, everyone else had already been served and eating. Young lady standing behind counter never bothered to come and check on us until we grabbed her attention as she came to a table next to ours to clean it off and then we shouted to her to help us. This is uncalled for as I'm concerned. She did apologize for the wait, but it's still bad for business. It wasn't like she was to busy to greet us. Food was great. If you want great business, you got to give great service. 8/6/23
