Great quality meat and food, very friendly and patient staff. My first time trying Hawaiian food and was blown away. Your new post-workout/comfort spot.

Really good food and big portions… but the prices have gotten a bit expensive so we don’t go there as much as we used to

It's a great place with big portions and tasty food.2 People can definitely share one portion.We had Hawaiian bbq beef, seafood mix and seafood noodle soup.
Food is good but someone needs to tell the guy who worked the front tonight to take his gloves off after touching and changing the effing trash cans, that's disgusting. I was appalled that he put my food in a bag, touched the napkins and utensils with his trash gloves still on. If any of you or i get food poisoning it's definitely on them. Makes you think about what the cooks are doing....

Just okay. Kind of bland actually, compared to other Hawaiian BBQs. I wasn't impressed.Ordered delivery.

This place saved my sanity when the kids didn't like what we actually had for lunch. The kids quieted down and scarfed down the chicken katsu. The meat was white, thick, and tender. The batter was lightly covered with crispy panko. There was plenty of rice for the two little kids to share. The mac salad was not as creamy as I am used to because it had canned tuna in it, but it was nice to have something a little different from other places. The seating area was spacious, and there was a self-service soda fountain with fresh tasting water. This restaurant was the perfect find for my tired kids.

Likes: + Ample parking. Located near the freeway. + Ton of good food. + Polite cashier. Non-likes: - Food comes out much slower here than the one in Irvine on Tustin Ranch Rd (they bring your food out within 2min). Here they took 13min, long enough for me to write this whole review. - I ordered he same thing here: the Hawaiian BBQ mix. The total came out to be about another $1 because of a 3.8% service charge. - [Ambiance] Two and a Half Men on TV. Not my cup of tea.

Great service, incredible portions. Quick easy meal for large gatherings, comfort food at its best. Nice folks behind the counter, nothing fancy but definitely worth trying. mahi mahi is yummy and so is the chicken katsu. 1 order would do well for 2 regular eaters.

The cashier there , is always there .He has such a positive attitude even though he works all the time . Iv been going there for 6 years. Iv never had a different cashier . Great dude! . The food has never ever disappointed me or my family. The cooks do a fantastic job keeping the favors the same. I hate going somewhere and some day the food is different. Thank you all for what you do, Stephanie, Freddy, kelley, and baby Guillermo.We all get extra Mac salad !
My family orders from here regularly for years and food is consistently delicious and portions are large enough to last several meals. I usually get the chicken and it comes with rice and a creamy macaroni salad.

Prefer this Aloha location vs the one down the street. Always serves portions that are on extra side. No complaints!

I hate leaving poor reviews but the food here was awful for us. The spicy kashi ramen was like watered down top ramen, pieces of the katsu looked undercooked, the noodle soup was basically noodles in chicken broth, the mac salad had virtually no taste, even the spam masubi didn't taste right. Not sure how you mess up on spam masubi. We spent $70.00 and threw away most of the food. We eat Hawaiian food all the time and this is by far the worst meal we have ever had. Hopefully we don't get sick from the food we did eat.

We order our food and waited 15 minutes at the restaurant. They removed the soda machine nozzles and I was unable to fill my soda. I had to ask an employee to re install them. We are told to leave by the employee at the store. We then speak to the owner and he says leave as well. As you can see we barely started eating. They turned of the lights before we even left. Will not be coming back.
