Shame on me to not share this gem that should be celebrated by all. First, the mac salad at Leo's is hands down my favorite! For the entree, anything curry, shrimp or chicken. I am drooling as I write this! The curry hits you in all the right spots as you take your first bite. The vegetables with the curry are firm enough to not turn into mush and tender enough to eat without teeth :-).... I do not think I've had a plate at Leo's that I have not enjoyed. The dinning area is always clean, even when the line is out the door. The drink station and condiment area is equally as clean and orderly regardless of the amount of people inside. As for the crowds, I've seen UFC fighters, baseball players and ordinary folks like you and I getting their fix at Leo's! I love seeing the same employees for the years that I've been going. Even though I am one face of many that they see. They are very welcoming to every customer who walks in. I can't tell you enough. You must try this place if you have not yet. I just hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

The…read morebartenders are always very inviting and friendly and they always know exactly what to serve you depending on how you are feeling. The drinks here are fantastic and whether you want to relax or get another jump start, this place has the fix for you. They host events as well, like an open mic night I happen to catch on a Tuesday evening but it was great to see what everyone brought that evening. Make sure you check out this kava spot, you won't regret it!

They had a live band playing when we went, which made the atmosphere even better. Definitely one of those unique downtown spots you end up hanging out at longer than expected. The drink menu was huge with a bunch of different kava and kratom mixes, plus the neon signs and mood lighting made everything feel really laid back. Bartender was nice, crowd was mellow, and it honestly felt more like a little community hangout than a regular bar. Bathroom was clean but smelled like a fart. Overall though, really unique place if you want something different from the typical bar scene.

I lived in Hawaii and know good Polynesian cuisine but Jeff and the Island Loco crew bring the islands here...for real. Some tips: The fusion tacos are awesome -- the corn and black bean salsa is to die for. The kalua pork is great, but my favorite was a simple teriyaki chicken bowl with a side of mac salad. But if you really want the money dish, be sure to get whatever entree you like with a side salad and the extraordinary sesame dressing Jeff makes. Wow. So much umami! I'm a customer for life if he ever bottles and sells that dressing. Hey, Jeff...get going on that and you'll be rolling in cash!

The food was amazing and all of our guests loved it (some even got an extra meal boxed to go!), the staff was incredibly kind and professional, they were very communicative from start to finish, and lastly the pricing is amazing for the amount and quality of food you receive.

My wife and I have eaten here several times in the past without major issue, and we keep going back…read morebecause we generally enjoy it. This past Sunday, Mother's Day 2026, I stopped in around 3:45 to pick up dinner with chicken teriyaki, beef bugolgi, tempura shrimp, white rice, and green salad. It was the only meal of the day that we each ate from the same establishment. After I ordered, I heard the guy cooking complain to the cashier girls up front that it would be awhile, but they didn't repeat the concerns to me, so I didn't pay it any mind. Overnight, Sunday night/ Monday morning, my wife and I both became violently ill. I think maybe that chicken that was gonna take too long to cook, wasn't cooked all the way. It doesn't matter how many times I've eaten here in the past without incident. That was an absolutely terrible experience, and I won't risk it happening again, just because the cook wants to get out of work early. I will never eat here again.

We weren't sure what to expect when one of our favorite bars closed for almost a month…read more Happy to report we went to the reopening Thursday night and the place was full. Captain Alex had things running smoothly with the help of Captain Dave (formally of Coabana) The decor is the same, and the drink menu is a bit smaller - 8 signature cocktails and 9 tiki classics. The back page of the menu was all food items. The three cocktails we had were boozy, yet perfectly balanced. The flavors of the drinks were un mistakable, making them more pronounced, and quite frankly, just plain delicious! Glad The Captains Cabin is back, and you can bet we'll be stopping by to say hi to Captain Alex and Captain Dave and enjoy more great tiki cocktails.

It's in a relatively abandoned strip mall and If you drive too fast you could miss it, I'm not sure you can even see it from the street, you kind of have to know it's there and MAN do people know!!!' By the time we left it was hopping! Lots of regulars you could tell. Staff was very nice, restroom clean and well stocked. Ambiance? Cute island minimalism! FOOD Had to start with the empanadas which were soo good and great flavor in the meat, I LOVE Cuban sandwiches but have failed to find a halfway decent one in Arizona. When we were in Miami and Key West I ate my weight in Cuban sandwiches so that's my gold standard! This one is just as good if not better! Advised it was big but we each ordered one anyway and big is an understatement they were huge! Roasted pork delicious and juicy, ham and Swiss. Just the right about of mustard not to overpower it and the right amount of pickles to also enhance but not overpower the flavor. The Cuban bread DELICIOUS! For 12 dollars it was two meals and a small snack for me. I'd say that's a heck of a deal ! We are already planning a trip out west to go back !
