| - I'm in love with this perfect lunch spot. They have everything I like about a quick Hawaiian style lunch. I typically go for kalua pig and Hawaiian style poke with corn and mac salad on the side, plus a can of Hawaiian Sun (though every single time I've been here the juice doesn't seem to be refrigerated well).
It's a simple menu: you choose the size (1, 2, or 3 meats), choice of meat(s), white or brown rice (2 scoops), and side(s). The meats all taste ono. The kalua pig (which is hard to find that tastes good out here) is tender and moist. The chicken and steak taste like home. Poke is also good; although most of the time, the Hawaiian style poke runs out and they only have the California style left (which is mehhh). You get all of this for a decent price.
Only thing I dislike is the rice. It's too hard. I don't know if it is undercooked, or if it's the type of rice they use, but I like my rice sticky and moist in my Hawaiian dishes. Also, maybe it's just this one occurrence, but there was a funky tang to the kimchee. For the sides, I recommend simple sweet corn, garlic edamame, and mac salad.
EDIT: They seem to have upped their rice game. It's consistently been much more moist.
