Aloha Kitchen is within 5min of walking distance from UNLV and a perfect spot to grab a quick lunch between classes. Aloha Kitchen offers onolicious traditional Hawaiian dishes from loco moco to garlic chicken. Menu is simple and straight forward.
Garlic chicken is always a must order for me whenever I go to a Hawaiian restaurant. The biggest and most obvious difference between the garlic chicken here and other places is that chicken is grilled here.
At most places, chicken is marinated in garlic sauce then deep fried. When my order arrived to the table, I could smell the garlic but when I took a bite, the garlic flavor was barely there. It just tasted like a garlic chicken that was marinated in soy sauce. It was good regardless. Gravy was also good, albeit too salty for my liking.
I've also got to try their loco moco over easy egg. Beef patty was definitely overcooked and dry and rice was sticky. Gravy was the same one from garlic chicken. Not the best rendition I have had but still not bad in my opinion.
Service is fast and friendly. I will be back to try more items!
