Great takeout spot, pineapple chicken was awesome and worth the price for practially 2 meals worth. They don't accept AMEX so bring alternate payment. Impressed overall!

Freaking Awesome BBQ Chicken and BBQ Beef Volcano Noodles. Food was outstanding. Customer service was off. I felt not welcome here... But the food said otherwise.

Food here is always great. The family meal will feed a family of 6 easily. One recommendation I would make to the establishment is to use the plastic boxes to go. The last 2 times I have ordered, the Kalua pork will go through the cardboard box by the time I get home.

This is the best food court restaurant I have ever eaten at. I wish you guys were in Florida. Will miss your Mahi when I get home

Can't go wrong with their bento box lunch special for 7. Fried rice, white rice, Mac salad and chicken Katsu.

I love this place! I've only ordered it on Uber Eats and I'm psyched how good it is. I got the same dish twice in the same week cuz of how good it was. The BBQ mix comes with the grilled Hawaiian chicken, the short rib and another strip meat. It's Soo filling and so much food. Both times I only ate one half and left the rest for a later meal. The fried rice is subtly garlicky and tasty! I don't even eat Macaroni Salad, but these guys straight up changed my opinion on it. You know it's a good experience when you're convinced to love something you didnt even used to like.

The food is so good! Was my first time and I will definitely be back! The food was fresh, and so bomb! The service was amazing the staff was so friendly. If you’re looking for Hawaiian food this is the spot. We ate the food up so fast, I didn’t get a chance for pictures, but it’s so well worth it.

amazing service, amazing food, incredible atmosphere and incredible flavors!! i was so surprised by the variety offered here, everything at such a great price and made hot to order, my food was quality and so fresh. i NEED to come here more often, my very first visit left such a great impression on me and my partner and i'm astounded by its volume as it's truly a hidden gem. MORE PEOPLE NEED TO EAT HERE!!! IT'S SO WORTH IT!!!!!
