This place, not unlike the California itself, is Hawaiian mecca. Our neighbor who lived there goes there for her Korean chicken fix. My brother comes here at least once on every visit for saimin and spam musubi. The stuff we were raised on, the stuff of legends. Not to mention the food of champions. We can outwatch TV and switch channels faster than anybody.
I don't think I've had anything other than the saimin since a good bowl outside the Islands is so hard to find. Great al dente noodles, tasty bits of egg, green onion, kamaboko and char shiu. Broth not as good as Shiro's but what broth is? Get it with veggies and, if you're hungry, with won ton. The large size will feed two people!
And don't forget about the tasty shortbread cookies they sell at the counter. Cookies baked in Hawaii taste like no other.
