So "Aloha" means both hello and goodbye -- now how can I work that into my review?
Here goes:
To begin with it, I've never seen a combination bar and Hawaiian fast food place.
Aloha (Hello) Kitchen reminds me of a typical Hawaiian fast food place: well lit with a lot of cheesy decor.
Besides having the basic plates, they also carried some unique stuff. I tried the Adobo Fried Rice and the wife tried the Saimin soup. The food wasn't really anything to yelp about, but since it is a chain kinda place, you shouldn't expectation too much.
I'd be willing to go back just because they serve poke (one of the items I don't find at a fast food place) on Friday and Saturday.
So until then, Aloha (Goodbye) Kitchen.
Aloha (Hello) Bar is right next door to the Kitchen but is a 180 from the Kitchen: dark with a dive feel to it. But it still gave off the laid back Island life vibe.
Bartender was cool and even spoke to me in dakine. Thanks.
She stopped though when my face went blank and didn't respond. Sorry.
The music had the kinda beats I could groove to for a couple hours, and the crowd was chill.
After a some drinks and a couple games of pool, I was saying Aloha (Goodbye) Bar. Good thing since they just fired up the karaoke machine.
Overall, I'll be saying Aloha (Hello) sooner to the Bar than the Kitchen.
A special aloha to all the Vegas Yelpers from Hawaii.
There are a bunch.
