Mediocre Food, High Prices
My experience at the restaurant was just okay. The food was described as "ok" but didn't seem or taste fresh. The portions were not very generous, and most combos were around $19, including taxes. The reviewer rated service, atmosphere, and food a 3 out of 5.

Best Hawaiian BBQ in the City!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the best made Spam Musubi, Chicken Katsu, and fried shrimp. I believe these are the best offerings of any Hawaiian Barbecue spots in the City. The service was excellent, rated 5/5, and the atmosphere was also a perfect 5/5. The food itself was rated 4/5, which is still very good. This was a great dinner experience with a price range of $20–30 per person.

Great Hawaiian Food, Good Value
My experience at this restaurant was centered around finding Hawaiian food that wasn't poke. The food I received tasted great, although it wasn't the best choice for my personal dietary needs. The value was pretty good, and I appreciated that they take cards, which is something other nearby places don't offer.

Terrible Experience, Tiny Portions
My first time here was also my last. The service was terrible, with no greeting and grumpy staff. I received a tiny portion of food for $18, which was a rip-off. The rib looked like it had already been eaten, and the meat and chicken were of terrible taste. I would recommend the BBQ place across the street for bigger portions and lower prices.

Delicious Comfort Food, Mostly Takeout
My experience at this restaurant was centered around their affordable and tasty comfort foods, made with love. I particularly enjoyed the Musubi, with the spam and katsu chicken being standouts. The mac salad was a great accompaniment to everything 🤤😋. It's primarily a takeout operation.

Still Thinking About These Cheeseburgers!
I lived in SF down the street from here around 2016 and I still think about these cheeseburgers all the time. French fries too. There aren’t enough stars in the galaxy so I’m giving them 5.

Consistently Great Neighborhood Spot!
My experience at this restaurant was consistently good. The food was delicious, served in generous portions, and offered a good variety of offerings. The staff was always friendly, contributing to a pleasant dining experience. We've been coming here for years and are very happy they remained open through the pandemic, as we look forward to many more years of satisfying our cravings for "ono grinds" 🤙😋. The atmosphere was also enjoyable, rated a 4 out of 5.

Delicious Food, Unimpressive Ambiance
The food was very tasty. However, the place itself is not that nice. We were planning to eat there, but ended up ordering takeaway instead.

Cold and Overcooked Loco Moco
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The egg was overcooked, and the hamburger patties on the Loco Moco were undercooked. It was clear the patties were frozen, and to top it off, the heaters were off, making the inside feel cold. I do not recommend this place.

Horrible Food and Value
My experience was horrible! We ordered for a gathering, and the short ribs were dry and chewy. The rice was like chicken catsup, and the 6 spam musubi, all in a half tray, cost $198. 21 😩. They had the nerve to give us that kind of meat 😡.
