We each got something different my favorite was the cheesesteak ! The bread is amazing (they make their own bread and you can tell) I added their own spicy mustard and it took the sandwich to the next level, My sister has the mushroom burger and she loved it too. We also had a keki menu the chicken and rice my two year old was thrilled. We ended the meal with two cookies a rocky road and a macadamia we loved the macadamia we took one to go.

Inside is a basic set of tables and chairs, a couple fans and large monitors display the menu. We stopped in on a late afternoon as the flow of customers matched the nearby ocean. We ordered an Ono Loa Loco, some lava burger with fries and a loco moco/Kalua pork combo. Wow - they don't skimp! Portions are generous and the family finished every bite. Ono Loa Loco is a mountain of local delicious-ness... rice, mac salad, rings, gravy and meat. You have the option of two meat choices with the kalua pork/loco moco - I went with one of each. So good. Lava burger was finished with gusto and the sweat was rolling off my son's face. Great little spot!

Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area!

Sit in the backyard/patio and you'll feel nature all around you and Hawaiian music in the background. In this day the weather got a bit darker and cool, so we sat there looking around taking in so much beauty. It was so relaxing! The menu had variety and the prices very reasonable. We had the veggie burrito, fish and chips and bbq sandwich. Everything was fresh and delicious. Too bad they didn't offer alcoholic drinks because I was really craving a Big Wave, but it's ok since I they did have local coffee. The lady kindly served it in a to-go cup and off we went.

I mean, we have literally had a veggie burger all over the country and Caribbean. You can say it's our thing...except we really didn't plan for it to become our sole mission in life. Alas, here we are, and veggie burgers are tasty, so there are worse missions to have. In any case, Google steared us to this restaurant, and we were happy with the suggestion! The restaurant is very small inside; there are probably 8 tables inside. Just something to keep in mind right at the beginning. You order at the counter, then take a seat should you want to dine-in, and they bring your food to you. My husband and I both did a veggie burger with fries. Service was very quick, which is great when you're so hungry you threaten to eat a chair whilst chewing on your hat. I mean, we've all been there, I'm sure! The fries come with a garlic aioli, and it was very good! The fries themselves were equally good and served nice and hot. The burgers were really good! They weren't super tiny, and the bread choice was a great one. The flavor of the patty was fantastic and didn't taste generic, but it also wasn't full of massive chunks of vegetables like some places do. My husband is super picky at times, and he enjoyed everything...even the garlic aioli, which was super surprising! They have a pretty decent menu for regular burgers too!

The flavor wasn't kicking nor was it really that spicy at all. BBQ Sampler Plate w/ fries & grilled pineapple $37.95 - Good price point for a sampler. We've eaten a ton of BBQ around the US and the brisket was one of my favorites. The ribs had a sweetness I really enjoyed. Reuben Spring Rolls $16 - Not pictured but loved them! Chocolate Cake $12 - Since it was my actual birthday, my partner wanted to get me a slice of cake but boy are they huge. It was absolutely delicious but we had to take it to go. I would recommend they have smaller slices as eating a ton of BBQ and devouring a huge slice of cake is due for a heart attack. Ambiance 5/5 Got a nice table by the window minus the horsefly.

Sure, this may be close to a virtual brand (like Mr. Beast Burgers), and have the disadvantage of a Denny's lineage. But if you set expectations correctly, you'll be fine. On the quality side, the bun and fries were good, and so was the produce (lettuce and tomatoes). The beef was slightly odd in terms of being perfectly cooked, juicy, great texture and mouth-feel - but disproportionately lacking in beef flavor. It's 2-3 steps above that loss of taste sensation with mild cases of Covid, but only for the beef patty.
