| - Makai was on my girlfriend's bookmark list for the longest time, so it was nice finally being able to cross one off her list, but I'm also really glad we stopped by too.
Knowing I wouldn't be back for awhile, I decided to go ahead and go balls to the wall and order the large. The large is composed of 3 meats and 2 sides. Heads up: the poke, steak, and brown rice is extra, but believe me when I say the spicy poke is absolutely worth paying extra. I'll get into more details in a bit.
I ordered the kalua pig which is a shredded pork, the spicy poke, and chicken katsu. So, back to the poke I was talking about earlier! If you're a fan of spicy, it has a nice little bite to it. The poke bits were nice and chunky too. It's absolutely worth paying extra for!
The kalua pig was thankfully moist thanks to the natural fattiness of pork and the seasoning was just right. I'm not a katsu fan, but I got it anyway. It was good, but I'd imagine it would be pretty damn good to someone who actually orders katsu regularly.
As far as servings go, they don't hold back here. The medium probably would have sufficed, but as I mentioned earlier, I wanted to go all out.
I didn't catch the guy's name that helped us, but he was funny and overall a cool guy.
Next time in Vegas and if our journey permits, I'll probably swing by, especially if I'm looking to load up on food and save my leftovers for dinner.
