    Deep-fried gyoza

    Between the amazing service to delicious food, there are so many reasons to stop by Island Style 2 when you're hungry. Located in the food court at Greenland, you'll easily spot their storefront as soon as you walk in. The meat jun is my personal favorite, so flavorful and tender. If you're in the mood for a mixture of things then the BBQ mixed plate would be the way to go. Had a rough day and need something soupy with noodles - Yukgaejang is your best option! The side dishes that come with your order are so fresh and delightful. The food is served in a bento box - so perfect to pickup on your way to the park or to take back home if you aren't wanting to eat right away. Note: they recently closed their original location, and now all the staff are here! So please go by and see them!

    This place is located in the mall in the food court. It was great! They had large portions and the food was delicious. The japchae had bulgogi beef and veggies in it and it also came with kimchi and macaroni salad. Their menu is big and we'll definitely be coming back to try more!

    OK I know that I love eating here, BUT...the price is still the same and they give WAY less food. I get the same amount of sides but the main dish and rice is a lot less. It's so disappointing to pay almost $19 for this less food! I'm assuming that this is only the take out and maybe eating there they would still give you the amount they used to give. Since they give so little for take out maybe they should charge less.

    Kalbi

    Island style 2 has always been our favorite store of the Greenland Supermarket food court. We love their fresh and delicious entrees. Kalbi is always a favorite. Quick, efficient, tasty, and affordable, you can't go wrong.

    Been eating at Island Style for over 20 years whenever we visit Las Vegas, the food is good and consistent. We use to go to their old location but it was our 1st time at this newer location. Recommended!!

    This place isn't fancy or anything, and the service is pretty basic. But the bibim nang myun is good! That was really the only reason I went in the first place; I was wanting that specific dish. If you're a fan of bibim nang myun, I think this is a pretty good option. I'd definitely come back if I'm craving this particular dish and I happen to be at Greenland or nearby. I haven't tried the other menu items yet. Maybe next time!

    Thoroughly enjoyed the stone bowl bibimbap here! The red pepper paste was great and not toverpowering like it is at some places. They also had a nice balance of rice and vegetables. Some places have too much rice. They were also fast and the staff was very nice - even bringing the order to our table.

    It's in the food court at Greenland Market. I decided to eat lunch before shopping. The service was quick. I decided on the spicy squid dish. It very delicious, just the right amount of spice. Came with rice and several banchan's. A little noisy but that's to be expected sitting in a food court.

    Hot Pot Bibimbap and Kalbi
    Victoria P.

    Ambiance - 4 stars. This place is located inside the Greenland Supermarket food court. There is plenty of seating; everything was clean. Cute place to stop by when going shopping for groceries. Food - 4 stars. We ordered the Hot Stone Bibimbap and the Kalbi plate. Both comes with assorted kimchi and macaroni salad. Bibimbap came with seaweed soup. Both dishes were tasty and portions were quite big actually! Total was about $50 which is a bit more than I'm used to paying at a food court establishment (-1 star) Service - 3 stars. The woman at the counter took our order; about 10 minutes for us to receive it. Nothing extraordinary, service-wise. There is a return tray area in the back of the food court once you're done eating your food. There is also a water dispenser towards the front if you want something to drink. Overall, I think the other Island Style location is better, but if you're in the area, this is definitely more convenient.

    This place inside Greenland Supermarket food court still doesn't disappoint. Best pricing for the value on items in their menu. Wide selections. Authentic Korean foods, fresh meats/fresh vegetables, huge portions banchan veggies, good bowl sizes, and everything is absolutely delicious and tastes as good as it looks. Yes, good ingredients and sauces. Stronger taste than most. Easy ordering at front counter. Inexpensive for the food quality. Excellent customer service. The lady even carried the tray and offered a pair of huge scissors for cutting the cold noodles to our table. Good environment for relaxation. It's always a busy and popular stop. Groceries, bakery items, public restrooms, etc. are all within reach inside. The food court hires good people for sanitation and cleaning jobs. They deserve tips here. Island Style 2 always delivers good experience. Beef bibimbap and cold noodles plus galbi meat were all very tasty delicious. Rice and soup and kimchi (included). We will definitely keep coming back. Memorable eats in Las Vegas all the time. Worth the stop. Come hungry.

    Spam Fried Rice
    Steven M.

    I'm giving Island Style 2 a full five stars for a number of very simple reasons. Located in the front end of the Greenland Market, Island Style 2 is one of the many small restaurants inside of the food court. I believe this is the second place in line and they feature a full photo menu of everything you can get with fair prices that are comparable to anywhere else in the city. What drew me in was that fact that the Greenland Market is awesome and the food inside was definitely gonna be good as well (and I was right). I ended up ordering the spam fried rice which was a large serving of fried rice with a bunch of spam thrown into the mix. The dish itself came out piping hot and was absolutely delicious. This place has a ton of seating, buzzers to alert you when the food is finished, and a super fast staff to make it happen. Overall, this place is wonderful and I recommend giving this small shop a chance. I really liked the fact that this place is so easy to run in and out of and has such delicious authentic food. If you and your friends are all hungry but can't decide on one thing, this market is the perfect place to go, and Island Style 2 is the perfect place to pick!

I still have regret that I couldn't try the oxtail soup or the sweet and sour spare ribs, but I'll be back. I got the combo plate with lau lau and Rry's fried chicken. The Lau Lau was very good: the meat was tender and I liked the taste of the Ti leaves. It was less seasoned than other Lau Lau I've had, but it's easy to add shoyu or salt to preference. The fried chicken was very good. The batter was shatteringly crispy and the meat was very juicy. To note though: it's not a Hawaiian fried chicken where it's marinated in soy/ginger first (like mochiko chicken), but more like a very good version of mainland fried chicken. Also, the Mac salad was very solid, My other regret was that they were out of malasadas. Apparently, they sell out pretty quick so I'm going to try to come close to 11 am next time to snag one.

This location was closer to me than Zippy's, so I opted for Pacific Island Taste. I am not someone who usually likes mac salad, but their mac salad was pretty good. I got the kalua pig, Korean fried chicken, laulau, and poke. The poke was surprisingly good, but the meats were a little on the dry side. I would check it out in person versus doordash as I assume that changes the quality of the food.

Menu offers a great selection of chicken, shrimp, steaks, salmon, ahi, pork, as well as Hawaiian plates, island favorites, fried noodles, and poke. I ordered my go-to for Dynamite Chicken Katsu (mini, $13.52), its crispy breaded chicken, meat is tender and moist, has amazing wasabi aioli and spicy sauce drizzle, very savory and wonderfully delicious! Served with tasty crab potato salad and kimchi. Also had Fried Noodles (mini, $7.28), the egg noodles are delicious, topped with chopped scallions and kamaboko (Japanese fish cake), it's really good! Spam Musubi ($4.16) is tasty! It does need sauce and there are condiments like soy sauce and hot sauce available on the table. For a lovely treat, they make the best Japanese Milk Pudding, it's delightful and not too sweet! I ordered a regular ($5.20) and tried Ube flavor ($5.20), both are yummy! Ube flavor is so good! The milk pudding has a delicate, silky, bouncy texture, and comes with a sweet Japanese syrup. The milk pudding on its own is so YUM! The syrup itself is very sweet, so only pour a little bit. They also have fun cookies on display locally sourced from The Cookie Bar. I tried Crème Brûlée Cookie ($4.50), it's a huge sugar cookie with a beautiful crisp glaze and is very sweet. MacDaddy Cookie ($4.50) is excellent, it has white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts, this one taste great! Service from Koltyn and Zadus is very kind, welcoming, polite, and friendly!

I even noticed small drips on the wall that looked like sauce stains, so yeah...not the kind of spot you come to for ambiance. BUT. The food? Absolutely makes up for it. I saw a steady stream of DoorDash drivers coming in and out the entire time, which already told me this place is popular for a reason and after eating, I get it. The food is really good. Like, seasoned all the way through, flavorful, not dry, not bland everything just hits. The chicken was juicy and tender with that perfect grilled flavor, and the portions are generous. The rice was fluffy, the mac salad was creamy and balanced, and everything together just felt like a solid, satisfying plate. No shortcuts, no watered down flavor, just good food done right. Vegas has a LOT of Hawaiian BBQ spots, but hands down...this is one of the best, if not the best I've had out here. So yeah, don't come here expecting vibes. Come here because you want a plate that's actually worth your money.

My son took one bite and said it was disgusting- No musubi sauce and tasted like it has been sitting for a while. Like just make them fresh if they're gonna sit all day. I also decided to haphazardly order a very sad and pathetic side of Mac salad that didn't taste like anything. 2 OG musubi and a side of Mac salad for $11 that went straight into the garbage. We Debated coming back on a different day on this LV trip to see if it's an off day but not sure I can after seeing how dirty it was and that they are ok to sell crap to loyal customers. This is so sad and disappointing! Hope they can bounce back because the food truly was so awesome.

The rice was sticky and the tuna was not over seasoned...fresh and flavorful. Our table shared the Spicy Poke Nachos. So good. The wonton chips were light and crispy. The restaurant offers plenty of casual seating. It is well lit and airy. The staff was welcoming. Service with a smile.

    My husband's cousin first told us about Ai Pono in Costa Mesa, and when my husband looked it up, he…read morerealized there was a location right here in Las Vegas inside Durango Station. His cousin couldn't stop raving about the food, so we decided to check it out for dinner last night. We ordered the Crackhead Chicken and Da "OG" Beef to share, and I also got a Spam musubi I had been craving. The musubi was HUGE and really hit the spot. We also ordered a side of Crackhead Chicken without the spice for our 1 year old, and she LOVED it. Normally she throws her food, but this time she actually ate it and kept making the cutest "yummy" faces the whole time. The moment I took my first bite of chicken, my reaction said it all. The flavor was INCREDIBLE! It had a perfect balance of sweetness from the coconut and a nice kick from the spices. Everything worked so well together, and the chicken itself was unbelievably moist and juicy. I also loved that the meat was served over the rice, allowing for all the juices to soak in. The rice was soft, flavorful, and just as satisfying. The macaroni salad was hands down my favorite compared to any Hawaiian BBQ spot I've tried. I also had a few bites of the beef, which had an amazing flavor and just the right amount of char to elevate it even more. The only thing that didn't stand out to me was the coleslaw, but we found out later that you can substitute for extra macaroni salad for an additional 50 cents. We will definitely do that next time! Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will absolutely be back whenever we are in the area. One quick note for parents: there are no high chairs available, and we even searched the entire food court. Since it's inside a casino, it's understandable, but just something to keep in mind.
