| - Ohana Hawaiian BBQ Noodles houses two rooms that is befitting for customers who would like to either dine-in or go for take-out. I notice there are two entrance, but I didn't know which door to go. It just so happens I see someone walking towards the entrance to the right. So I went to the right door. There are plenty of tables and seatings on both sides of the room. I notice more people going for the right door and I realize that if you choose this door, expect your order to be serve in a take-out box. But if you want to have a good feel of dining in, looking at the pretty menu, and enjoying your meal on a nice plate accompanied with a silverware, enter the left door.
The menu is quite extensive. They offer a selection of rice dish, BBQ combo, burger, sandwich, masubi, all kinds of meat, and noodle dish. There is a picturesque wall of food to help with decision-making and to alleviate some of the pressure from guessing what your meal will look like. I chose the Singapore Rice Noodles ($9.25) which usually comes with spam and shrimp. Now as a person with specific food allergy, it is good seeing that this restaurant can accommodate to special request. I wanted to try the Singapore Rice Noodles with just chicken. This meal comes with a nice, spicy curry flavor and is serve with thin rice vermicelli noodles stir fry with onions, green bell pepper, slice carrots, bean sprouts, scramble egg, chop scallions, and generous portion of tender chicken which taste so soft it just melts in your mouth. This specific dish has my favorite kind of noodle and the food is so good and flavorful, I had to save up the rest so I can enjoy more of this deliciousness at home.
The atmosphere is lively, casual, and laid-back, and the songs playing in the background are a mix of R&B, Alternative Rock, and Pop. The service is welcoming and friendly, and the people who have attended to my order are Kiana and John. Both have shown sincere kindness, a warmth smile, cheerful disposition, and excellent hospitality. I forgot to get my drink and John had filled my cup and personally brought it to my table, which I feel is the nicest gesture. You can tell there is a lot of love and dedication by how people treat you. The service is very much family-oriented and the moment you place an order, the staff is attentive and ready to make your meal with fresh quality ingredients. On top of my order, I had the Malasadas ($5.50) for dessert and this is a simple treat that I am familiar with in my culture. Malasadas is a deep-fried, round and puffy doughnut that is rolled and coated in granulated sugar. It is the good kind of sweet that you can most certainly share and enjoy in bounty with others.
