It's been about a single visit so far with this local joint and it's mostly convenient since its close to work.
My order was the regular size Chicken Katsu meal with steamed rice, added on a side of chicken BBQ musubi and manapuas to share with coworkers.
I'd like to say the katsu was alright. Nothing special, simple breading (I daresay it is nothing close to PANKO brand breading type, maybe just cheap breading) of chicken along with the sauce. The sauce tasted like it came from a cheap bottle brand.
Portion of the katsu and rice was generous and a scoop of the typical Mac salad. Very similar to Americanized Hawaiian franchise of L&L. The Manapua (meat bun) was OK. It was small and a bit stale due to the bread. The musubi was probably the only thing I enjoyed. Lol
Its Hawaiian alright but to truly taste the distinct flavors of a traditional hawaiian cuisine and you want to satiate those taste buds, I'd look elsewhere; otherwise try this joint if you're craving for 'different food' other than the regular burger and fries theme and/or for a quick eat. I give it a 3-star only because of the courteous service and speedy wait time to receive the food, plus they got this giant Aloha shirt on their restaurant wall which was kinda cool. Overall, it did not please my taste buds that day.
