A stranger recommended Kuya's to me and said it was the best Hawaiian food he'd had. Unfortunately…read moremy experience wasn't the same. The restaurant is pretty nondescript and parking is very limited. I ordered the Hawaiian combo with Huli Huli chicken and teriyaki chicken. All meals come with rice and mac salad. The mac salad was really good. Like hmm 4.5 outta 5 stars. Both chicken dishes were just meh. The chicken alone had very little to no flavor all the flavor came from the sauce which wasn't anything special. The serving size was good but the flavor was lacking so I probably won't try them again.

Pictured is the garlic chicken, the Teri chicken and Huli huli chicken - a more savory and spicy alternative to the Teri. Not pictured was the Kalua Pig which also got raving reviews from the crew. Everything, even the Kalua, was made to order. We got combo plates to start and we couldn't believe the portions, it could have easily lasted 2 to 3 meals (for a normal person, naturally we crushed it). Everything was fresh and delicious, and I have no idea what they put in their spicy aioli - but it is outstanding. Once I had a taste it was going on everything, especially the teriyaki chicken.

The BBQ chicken was flavorful and well cooked. The Kalua pork was tender and really good. The musubi had a lot more flavor than I've had at other places. Now the Kogi fries were amazing and puts this spot in the front lines with others. The bulgogi was super tender, the sauce had a mild spiciness to it, the kimchi tasted fresh and the waffle fries were prefect! The macaroni salad and rice were both pretty standard. We'll be returning

Not sure if something changed when they moved locations but the food and service left much to be desired. Since their new location is a bit far away from me, I ordered a pickup order online. Upon arrival, I promptly made my way to the pick up area to inform them the name under my order. Not only was there no eye contact when handing over the bag of food, but there were no words exchanged as well. We ordered the Hawaiian nachos and the honey walnut shrimp this time. I appreciated that the ingredients were packed separately for the Hawaiian nachos to avoid it being soggy. The kalua pork and the spicy ahi tasted good but the wonton chips were barely edible from being overdone. A lot of them were fried together in groups of 2-4 so we had to manually break them apart. I ended up eating the kalua pork and spicy ahi with rice instead of the wonton chips. The honey walnut shrimp and the rice was good, but nothing noteworthy compared to other places I've tried. The side of mac was on the creamier side and I enjoyed the texture of the macaronis.

My only minor gripe was that it leaned a touch salty but it didn't detract much from an otherwise really tasty bowl. It's on the spendier side but the portion size is generous enough that you'll leave satisfied. For the quality of the fish alone, I'd say it's worth it. I'd absolutely come back when the craving for solid Hawaiian food strikes.

The restaurant was pretty busy at 2pm on a Saturday, but service was very quick. One thing to note here is that the musician that was at their other location was not there - that was a nice touch, albeit the live music was kind of loud - hopefully they still bring the performer in during different times throughout the week/day. I highly recommend this location and 808 overall as a restaurant.
