| - What is your go-to place to eat in Vegas?? I asked my friends this and finally I found an answer. ISLAND STYLE!
I rarely give 5 stars. But this place definitely deserves it. Why?
Here are some reasons:
1. Impeccable geniune service from the owner Russel who is a hawaiian native (big island) whose wife is korean.
2. Its a hole in the wall place, but neat and clean. A place where you feel safe to eat. But don't be fooled by the surrounding stores in the unassuming strip mall.
3. Price is right for good hawaiian and good korean food in Vegas.
4. Big servings! FRIED RICE IS GREAT! Spam, eggs, and all the rest of the typical fried rice ingredients.
5. Mandu - fried gyoza/dumpling type stuff which is extra crispy skin on the outsdie and delicious pork,cabbage stuffing.
6. They have kimchee that is homemade! =)
All the best homestyle hawaiian food and korean favorites (bulgolgi, spam, bi bam bop in a claypot)
The best part of our experience is the owner and his generosity. He's the surfer type, hawaiian, laid back - he's your uncle kind of guy that treats like your his old friend. Offered us complimentary katsu with our meal and brought out extra soup for our table of 4. Most generous guy.
They have another place located downtown near the korean stores, we must check it out next time we're in town.
A must go place off the strip if you have a car go there, and if you're really hungry and strapped for cash, definitely go there!
