The food, the vibe and everything else. First time there and we made a mistake of eating breakfast late and then go there. We will be definitely going back for sure and this time we will starve ourselves before going because food portions are definitely islanders portions 🤣 🤙🤙
The staff is rude. They won't answer your questions. Really pathetic service. They hooted when we asked how long the food will take to arrive. Dont expect to get food on your table in this restaurant.

I never leave reviews but I made the drive from Eugene just to eat here and they are closed even though it is Friday during normal business hours. Plus they never answer the phone. Since there is no way of knowing if they are actually open or not I will not be coming back.
Wow! Killers food and drinks! Great,fun and courteous staff! Very personable and inviting vibe! Made us feel like locals and welcome! 5☆ Recommend highly!
Literally the best place I have ever been. We went twice in our two night stay and I don’t have one single complaint. I would like to say even with the wait time’s Henry made our whole experience a 20/10. Everyone was amazing but he really made our visit memorable. Shout out to Henry’s parents and the establishment for training him correctly. The food was worth every second. 20/10.
Chef Christian and Natasha cook up unbelievable fusion Hawaiian foods that are always worth the wait. Expect a wait because food this good is well worth it. It always amazes me how the food that tastes this good and consistently comes out of that small kitchen. Try the Volcano Chicken, Ribs, and the Thai Mango Chicken is awesome. Tacos and burgers are great. Perfection every time. My wife and I plan lunch trips just to eat here. We drive 3 hours because it is always that good. Come join us at the Pono Hukilau for some fresh Sushi and dinner. We hope to see you here! Aloha!

The food maybe good but the service is extremely slow. It delayed our entire tour plan. This probably a good place to halt only if you have all day at Florence

We had the fish tacos that were amazing! The teriyaki chicken was also very good. The pork was not my favorite, way too much salt and didn’t enjoy the sauce

First time here and will absolutely be back. Greeted warmly by the waitress (wish we had asked her name she truly was wonderful), very cozy atmosphere with a small town vibe. We went around 2:30 pm and it wasn’t busy at all. Seated right away and every single thing we ordered was fabulous. Highly recommend the salmon poke, fried prawns (their tartar sauce was delicious), cheese burger (VERY cheesy) with crispy fries and sushi. We were so full and ordered more sushi to go for our dinner (the sushi were HUGE portions, very thick pieces, but the presentation was a bit sloppy. Overkill on the sriracha mayo sauce, does not need that much). This will be the place we stop to eat whenever we visit Florence. Great find!
Side note, they do charge extra for paying with a credit card (understandably) just wanted to mention it so others know beforehand.

They will never answer their phone. They don't post anything about closing early till the very minute it happens then won't accommodate for anyone else if it doesn't fit their schedule. Just plain rude people but with great food.

Generous portions. High quality ingredient. Warm staff. Will definitely be back.
Passing through town and decided to stop for a bite. There was a wait for the food but 100% worth it. The burger was amazing and sushi was out of this world good. 10/10 will stop here again next time were passing through.

We found this place after going for a sand dune ride. My daughter had the real California roll, made with real crab. I had a roll with ahi tuna. And my best friend had a chicken loaded taco. The vibe is amazing inside and out. With having been to Hawaii it made you feel like you were there. Fantastic food. Would reccomend to anyone.
