The bar keeper doubled as our waitress. She was very friendly and helpful with the menu. Our group ordered: -kim chee Kalbi quesadilla - 5/5 -loco moco - 4/5 -Country fried pork chops - 3/5 -breakroom special -2/5 The quesadillas were amazing and would be the dish we'd come back for. Like some reviews on Yelp have noticed, they were out of items like shrimp and in our case, no mashed potatoes. The rice didn't go well with the cheese+gravy+chicken. In hindsight, we should have asked for fries to be used instead of rice. The pork chops were lacking in flavor and didn't match the hype of sous vide pork chops. They've updated the menu recently so maybe we'll give them a try again.

My friends wanted to eat here since one of them was craving their fried rice. It was my first time…read moretrying this place and was looking forward to it. This place is located on the second floor of South Shore near Nordstrom Rack. This place was spacious and had a bar style vibes. There is a bar counter in the back as well as a lot of dine-in tables. Dynamite fried boneless chicken bites: We got this on their happy hour menu. The chicken bites were good. It was large and meaty. The breading was good. Crispy and seasoned. It wasn't hot temperature wise though. Garlic bacon fried rice: Wow, absolutely love this fried rice. So much flavor and very savory. The yellow pickles in the rice were very smart. Adds some crunchy texture and tangy taste to it. Fish and chips: The fish was good, moist and golden crispy. The tsukudani aioli was delicious. A very different aioli sauce. We got an upgrade on the fries and chose the truffle parmesan fries. Good truffle flavor and the fries were thin and crispy. Not enough parmesan on top though. Overall, really enjoyed their foods. The portions were big and perfect for sharing. The service was not bad, our server was friendly but she did disappear afterwards so we had to go to the bar counter to fill our waters on our own. It wasn't busy during the early evening hours but I can see this place pick up later toward the night.

Didn't refill the water. Food 3/10 - We ordered the garlic bacon fried rice and it was a basic fried rice. I don't recommend. Got the garlic fried chicken boneless. Also don't recommend. The Uni pasta was the best one. The oyster shooters came out last even tho we wanted it first. We order it twice. The first time was good but nothing special. The second time was horrible. The plate was a mess and they both tasted completely different. Would I come back no! Would I recommend this place to anyone no!

I sincerely thought it wouldn't be enough food to fill me up. I was wrong. My husband and I are usually big eaters and we were both full. He ordered a bucket of beers - 5 for $25 which was a nice deal. The Nonna's Special Drink - "Lost In Rome" was both pretty and delicious! The service was excellent! It's a family owned business and family operated. They are very friendly, down to earth, and it's easy to kind of feel like family, even as a customer because of how easily they chat and talk to you as if you've known them a long time. Upon first walking in to the main entrance, it felt a little strange since this used to be a Foodland. But when we were sitting at the bar talking story, we kind of forgot that we were sitting in one small eatery that is a part of a larger food court type environment. It was a Friday night, which apparently is salsa night. There was an open area kind of in the middle of all the eateries where there was a couple teaching salsa to people who are interested in learning. From what it looked like it seemed that these were all individual people that showed up separately but partnered up to learn the dance. Overall, I would definitely recommend you check this place out. We liked it so much that we're going back again tomorrow night.

Friendly and personable, we were immediately remembered after our first visit. The soup is ono, the meatballs are awesome, and my fav is the Caprese salad. Enjoy your food at the bar where you can talk story all you like with the bartenders. Thursdays are line-dancing nights and Friday is salsa nights - both are very popular and everyone is friendly. Drink at Nonna's and enjoy the events.

Simple Korean bar, big booths as well as bar seats. Karaoke is $2/song. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of parking. The star of the show though is the food! Pork chops w/onions and mushrooms had just the right amount of breading, cut into smaller & cut pupu style. The Kalbi was just as flavorful. Homemade Kim chi had just the right amount of hot. But the steamed mandoo? The largest I've ever seen (sumo size!) and oh so tasty!! Service by Ruby was top notch! Need a place to hang for a bit while in that neighborhood?

We got seated outside which was okay and we had a small dog with us. We went to celebrate our daughter Birthday and nobody asked even with her wearing a Lei is there a special occasion? Nothing from the check in counter to the waitress? We ordered appetizers Oyster shooters, Chicken Caesar salad, Truffle French Fries, Crab Artichoke dip, besides the main courses. The Oyster Shooter was fresh and tasty with a quail egg on top, only 1 of mind had 2 pretty good size pieces of oyster shells inside good thing I didn't choke on them. The Truffle French Fries was good except for it wasn't crispy, maybe due to the truffle oil. The Chicken Caesar salad with pesto was very good and the homemade croutons were very tasty light and crunchy, the pesto chicken was tasty and moist and the romaine lettuce was fresh. The Crab Artichoke dip with baked bread was good. I also ordered the fish and chip which was delicious and the fish was crispy on the outside and moist inside. The French fries were crispy and good. My wife ordered the braise belly pork and most of the portion was fat which she only ate 1 piece. Our daughter had the braised short ribs and she enjoyed her meal. Our son in law ordered the short ribs with Kim Chee and he enjoyed his ribs, but didn't eat the large pile of Kim Chee he said the Kim Chee was sour, but enjoyed the short ribs and beans and mash potatoes. They do have indoor and outdoor seating with live music. You can park in the unpaved parking lot right across the entrance, but if you have bad eye sight or walking because of the large holes and uneven surfaces, better to park along side of the building.

It's right on the water at Pier 38, so there's a nice harbor atmosphere and plenty of seating. There's also parking! The menu has a good variety of seafood and Hawaiian style dishes, and they also have a fish market if you want to take some of the fresh stuff home. The fish of the day options are a fun way to try something local. The restaurant has a casual, counter service kind of feel, so don't come expecting a fancy sit down experience. It's more of a grab your food and find a table situation, which I actually think works well for the location. You get quality entrees quickly! We loved the furikake crusted tuna fish, the garlic shrimp and the mochiko chicken.

I asked for something similar and she gladly accepted the challenge, dancing around the bar searching for ingredients and even adding a little absinthe fire flame.

Came here for Saturday brunch buffet and we weren't disappointed at all! Food was outstanding-…read more service was top notch - and we loved the environment! Perfect place for a weekend brunch with the perfect selection of yumminess ! Had reservations so we got seated immediately only holdup was getting parking on a busy Saturday at the mall. They have a huge drink selection and we got virgin mimosas and coffee and they brought us water too. Since it was a buffet we got to go at our own pace. Food highlights the soft scrambled eggs w/ cheese - if you prefer the soft scramble this is for you - the salmon was cooked to perfection- breakfast meats of Portuguese sausage and chicken sausages were both fantastic- grilled veggies was good but served cold and I prefer it served hot - grilled corn on the Cobb very sweet - strip loin is excellent and I loved the chimichurri and horseradish served on the side makes it yummy. my sisters loved the lemon blueberry French toast too and another favorite the coconut lime scones and mango tart!!! I think the only item that didn't send us to the moon was the pork ribs as it lacked the flavors we were hoping for but didn't get. They kept both our plates cleared and water & coffee filled. Coffee is excellent and we enjoyed our mimosas. The staff are helpful and friendly and a return is scheduled for the next trip to Hawaii

Food and service were so good here! We came on a Friday night and it was packed, with such a lively…read moreatmosphere. Side note, it could be a little hard to hear each other since tables are placed pretty close to each other. We started with the roasted eggplant and grilled sweet corn, and both were great appetizers. I feel like you can't go wrong with anything that's grilled/roasted haha. We got the soft shell crab pasta, which had lots of crab flavor and meat mixed in--perfect for seafood/crab lovers. The pasta portion is definitely generous for one person and can be quite filling. The fried whole moi was spectacular, fried perfectly and the fish itself was delicious. The house fried rice was also perfect, with lots of seafood flavor. The beef carpaccio came a little later than expected, which was a bit of a miss for me. The beef was sliced so thin that you could barely get any texture from it, and with the Thai chili/herb mix, I think the American/Italian-style preparation is more for me. The beef was also uncut, so we had to slice each piece ourselves, which was a bit unusual, but it was fine. We shared everything between the two of us and were very full and satisfied with the food and flavors! Service was friendly, attentive, and just overall very pleasant to interact with. Lastly, we'd say the price point is a good value for what you're getting in terms of taste, portions, and quality. If you're thinking of trying here, just do it! We will be back for sure!

I think it was but most happy about the Moi. Wow. I could eat that every time. Both of them. But the beef is only available on Sunday so glad we went on that day. The four of us agreed that on our own, we would be coming back again real soon. There were so many other items on the menu that still needed to be tasted. I recommend reservations because they are pretty trendy.
