| - This is the second time that Ive eaten here.
This time we ordered the chicken plate, mini Kalua pig, Ross J's special pack and the spicy Korean chicken.
First let me say that from the time we entered the place to the time we left, there was always a line to order. The person who took our order at the counter was the same person who was taking out the food. Not sure if that was the reason for the long wait in line. The dinning room was on the smaller side, about 10-15 tables. As crowded as it was there always seemed to be at least one table open.
Now for the food. We came here because of the fried chicken challenge that yelp has going on. So, the chicken was ok-good. I liked the crispy skin that it had. It could have been crispier but I liked it. The chicken itself didn't seem to have much flavor. My wife liked the chicken better than I did. It reminded her of the chicken she used to get growing up. My favorite thing to do is to take the skin and make a little boat out of it and load it up with rice and furikake. YUMMY! ( see picture) I would eat a whole plate of that if I could order it. Would I get it again? Yeah why not. Would I get it if I was craving good fried chicken? Probably not.
The mac salad was on par, which is good.
The Kalua pig and cabbage. My son is a kalua pig aficionado. He loves the stuff. I ordered him the mini expecting to see it disappear in a few minutes. To my surprise he had only eaten about half. The kalua pig did seem a little dry.
My wife tried it and she wasn't a fan.
Up next is the Ross J's special pack. It had fried chicken, Teri steak, mahi-mahi, spam, mac salad and rice with furikake. The chicken is the same as on the chicken plate. The Teri steak, I liked how it wasn't dried out and tough like it is at most places so that part is good. I don't really care when they cook it and just plop sauce on the top. That's just me. The mahi-mahi was so small that you could eat the entire thing in one bite if you wanted to. The spam was a nice thick piece. Overall it was a good plate to order.
Lastly the side order of spicy Korean chicken. It tasted to me like it was a nicely cooked piece of chicken drowned in spicy soy sauce. I didn't like it at all. It might be good if all that was dumped over a mountain of rice. Oh yeah I'm sure that would be good but as I ordered it, no Bueno.
I must admit that when I went there I felt like I was transported back to Hawaii. It definitely had a back home feel for me and we did enjoy our meal. If you go order the green river.
