| - I'm not one of those people drawn to Hawaiian food, or BBQ for that matter. However, I was scrolling through Yelp for somewhere to eat and my kid saw this place and was dead set on going, so we went (despite my not being too thrilled).
Honestly, nothing really looked amazing to me on the menu. I ended up ordering a combo of chicken and beef, my son got a mini beef, and my husband got the katsu and noodles (which we ordered to go as he was home). We waited a bit and I observed the area. The people working there were super nice, attentive, and were very concerned with the cleanliness of the place.
We got our food and dug in. Wow. The beef looked dry and chewy but it was in fact moist (sorry for those of you that hate the word) and tender. It had a slight sweetness to it, as did the chicken that was equally moist and tender. There was a good amount of cabbage and broccoli under the meat in both plates, which was a nice surprise. The rice was rice like (nothing special there), but it was especially good with a little katsu or teriyaki sauce on it that we got from their condiment station. The Mac salad was freaking phenomenal. Especially with a little bit of the sweet meats in the same bite. I'm salivating right now writing this review, it was that good.
So obviously I am now a big fan of Hawaiian food if it is made as well as it is at this place. I totally get the fuss and I'm super glad my son has such good taste in food. Btw, he ate most of it and he's only 7. He says he would give this place 5 1/2 stars, so I would say that means it's kid friendly, too.
