Can't say we ate here in HI, but we do go to L&Ls in SoCal and this place is just as good. My boys love it and so do I.
Good sized portions mean you never leave hungry. The Katsu sauce is great and I ladle it over just about everything. I wish I could buy some to have around the house.
Kind of unusual menu. Macaroni salad as a ubiquitous side dish, for example. But perhaps that is the Hawaiian way.
Doesn't get five stars because the food seems a little bland to me - hence my putting the Katsu sauce on everything. Maybe that's the style though so don't let that one missing star stop you from giving it a try! Unlike a prior reviewer I have never had food quality problems here. Rice has always been perfect. And I have eaten here many times.
