We’ve been here for numerous lunch visits. So far each meal has been equally wonderful. And you can tell the super friendly staff are happy to be there. Makes me feel like I’m getting good old fashioned Hawaiian hospitality. Sweet!
On my first visit I went with the special of chicken katsu with your choice of poke. I forgot how poke fills me up so fast! It was very fresh with delicate flavors. They know their way around poke! The savory dipping sauce for the katsu did not last long as it paired well with everything.
The second visit was the Hawaiian French toast paired with Portuguese sausage. OMG! I’m pretty picky about my French toast, the choice of bread, batter and spice just melts in your mouth. To me it should taste good without syrup and this one sure does. Although dipping it lightly in syrup just adds another layer of flavor!
The third visit had to get the loco moco since it’s my favorite Hawaiian dish. The gravy really makes this dish pop. Along with the seasoned beef patty and perfectly cooked eggs over easy, I was very pleased with it.
Last visit ordered the chicken curry, another of my favorite Hawaiian dishes. The curry was perfect, not too spicy, not too mild. Many layers of flavor in this dish had a party with the tender chicken, peas and carrots. It did not last long!
Before we left I had to take advantage of their Hawaiian chocolate macadamia nuts on sale. They were calling my name! Next visit I might just get one of those super cute purse size bags with bright patterns. I look forward to many more visits to this bright gem.
The parking lot is fairly large, we have always managed to find a spot. Plus they still have shaded outdoor seating in the parking lot.
That’s good you have a new favorite spot.
I look forward to many more visits!
