4 star review is amazing for a "quick service" restaurant. The cooks are fast, and only turn food as fast as they can make it. I am impressed. It's nothing exciting. Just go old comfort food made fast. I have eaten here many times. The Hawaiian Short Ribs are on point. The portions are big. Most everything is modestly priced.The full sized entrees are big. The ala carte menu which is your very basic burger, shrimp, cod, salmon ect... and a ton of other items is the real gem. The double cheeseburger I got was less than $8.00!! It was massive and hot! Came with, iceberg, white sweet onions, a thick tomato, pickles and a burger sauce and American cheese. It was simply made but a great classic dbl burger for under $8.00 and worth every penny.The fish sandwich/burger, same setup minus cheese and burger sauce then add tarter sauce. I was a butterflied piece of white fish, batter-fried when I ordered it!Everything is fresh and I will keep coming to a hearty, good, cheap lunch here!*Service is good and fast, the place is in a strip mall in Kent. The decor fits the Kent-Covington area. It's just basic seats and tables. Give this place a spin. You'll not be disappointed.

I got the kalua pork and mac salad. 100/10. Could not stop eating succulent chunks of juicy pork and the mac salad was simply extraordinary.

As you enter the restaurant the front windows are filthy and their is a poor rating from the health department posted in the window. The interior of the restaurant is sparse and open with cheap tables and chairs. It resembles a cafeteria at a bus station. The staff are polite enough but not very professional. Most of them sit at the front counter like they are on break and text on their phones. The food lacks flavor and presentation. There is nothing “Hawaiian” about it that I could tell. It seems like a small family restaurant run by people who know nothing about running a restaurant or preparing food and serving guests. They need to step it up.

I prefer going here instead of teriyaki places near buy. BBQ Chicken is cooked perfectly and not drowning in corn syrup teriyaki sauce. Staff is friendly and quick. Best katsu I've had in the area.

I generally like the hamburger meal with side items. The gravy is flavorful and the portion size is good for the price. My only significant critique is that the food lacks flavor without the gravy.

Ok I order Simon to eat there and they bring it out in a Togo container that made it hard to eat with no sauces also the poke wasn't fresh. It really felt like the guy at the counter had zero F to give about serving anyone

We ordered the large low carb plate to share between 2 people and it was plentiful. Added sides of rice and Mac salad. The meats were marinaded so well it packed a mouthful of flavor. All the protein goes so well with white rice. Mac salad was delicious, was seasoned well and creamy. Def one of the better ones I've tried out here.
