The shrimp are exceptionally fat and juicy, along with all the other seafood. The sausage must be a high quality as well because it's much better than other places. The main ingredient of course are the sauces! They are addicting as we keep coming back for more. My family craves this place, and it's nice they have different options for parents & kids. Since it can be messy, it's also nice to take it to go and enjoy at home. Favorite food truck ever!

The food has mainly classic Korean dishes nothing more like no Korean bbq on a table grill it could have lower prices possibly a $12- $16 range where they could do it buffett or cafeteria style since not servers for7 - 9 tables , then they could earn more when customers buy at the grocery store side of the restaurant, a Korean customer said this is the largest k grocery in NM but it's more like a convenience store with unique frozen foods.

In a pinch for time I was trying to meet someone before another engagement I had planned. The first…read moretwo places we had gone were a bust so on whim we decided to check this place. At first it appeared as just an oriental market. We then discovered there was a small restaurant in the back serving hot foods. My stomach was empty but I wanted something light. They had some fried dumplings that sounded interesting. It was right up my alley for a quick snack. When I inquired if it had any pork or chicken I was informed it was vegetables. I was like ok I can work with that. When it came out I was a bit caught off guard. I guess I was expecting more round plump dumplings but instead they appeared more like pot stickers. I took my first bite. It was very bland. I dipped it in the sauce it came it. The sauce overpowered the veggies and it was ok but still very bland. I wasn't too impressed. They offered a lot of items on the menu mostly consisting of pork so I didn't venture too deep. Personally I'm a not a big fan of pork but if that's what you're into than this may be the place for you. Honestly you'd probably have a better experience than I did. Overall it was an ok experience. The restaurant was very small. The staff was friendly. For me it was nothing to write home about. I can at least say I gave it a try but it was not for me. I probably won't be returning.

I was in between a meeting and thought I would stop by Kimo's for lunch out of whim as it happened…read moreto be along the way to my next meeting. I'm so glad I finally got to check this place out after all these years of living here. The store is in an industrial area, and looking from the road, you can definitely miss it if you blink. It looks a lil sort of like a hole in a wall place and I wasn't even sure it was open by looking from the outside even! But...I did park in the back and checked out the shop! I opted for Loco Moco with overeasy egg, soda and got 2 spam musubi to go. I must say the food hit the spot for me. I hadn't had Hawaiian food for close to 10 years now so it was really nostalgic savoring this thing again. The spam musubi was also great though on a pricy side..but hey..once in a while, it's good to treat yourself with yummy things! The staff there were both friendly. They ended up chatting with me most of the time since when I stopped by it wasn't busy with the crowds. I also learned they do have food truck offerings at events at Hyder Park on select days, too! Just the only things I wished they had some other things like guava cake and mochiko chicken that I really missed too though!

When I first moved here to Albuquerque, NM, I was so excited to find there was a Hawaiian place…read morehere and my friend from church, also from Hawai'i, brought me a plate lunch of my favorite chicken katsu. It was awesome and made just right! So why the 2 stars??? It started off with so much potential, then quickly went downhill. I was happy to see they offered delivery, and so I ordered and looked forward to some ono grinds (good food). When I got the delivery and opened the container, my first reaction was "WHAAAAAATTT?????". This was NOT katsu! It was mushy chicken teriyaki-ish swimming in sauce, mac salad that was masquerading as local mac salad, and overall just a container of non-local food. It didn't taste goo either. I was told at the time that it was under new management, but even so, it should not have kicked its standards to the curb. I was afraid to eat their food after that. If you are going to advertise yourself as a Hawaiian food place, make sure you got the goods. We locals know the difference.

For our next #abqrestaurants #restaurantreview, I'm obliged to let y'all in on a secret I love it…read morewhen we find a new place to visit, and further love it when I find an equally rare gem of a small business that we have driven past many times before. This location, was in a grocery store (several of which we reviewed before) and initially we were the only customers. The owner was the only one working in the store so there were boxes of groceries that were in the middle of being stocked, plus he also cooked for us and others that had ordered takeout, so that more than made up for the slower service time and lack of offer for water (that someone else had previously mentioned) in a small, but beautiful dining room with a TV that was set to an arab channel (currently a work in progress, but again, considering he's the only employee in the store, we give him a LOT of credit!) This was our first time eating anything Afghan, so I was really excited. I ordered a flatbread appetizer and my husband ordered a chicken kebab, plus we had this yogurt drink with mint, similar to kefir (which my husband felt was sour then enjoyed it as I explained how to drink it (If you focus on the flavor of the mint and contrast it to the yogurt, you'll see how well it works together!). Plus, the tart of the yogurt dissipated the longer it sat on the table. The food was equally delicious. The chutney that came with my appetizer was moderately spicy (which I prefer ) and the yogurt drink served as a complementary offset. Unfortunately we didn't stay for dessert this time because we needed to run to the store before it closed, but were grateful to have enjoyed the meal we ordered! (Total cost around $40 for two people but reasonable for the quality ) #gourmetrecovery #foodfreedom #Intuitiveeating #supportsmallbusiness

This is for my fellow plant-based eaters. We were very…read moredisappointed to see their only vegan offering did not match their online menu. The online menu states that their Imposter bowl has plant based "tuna" and sriracha ponzu, but the Imposter on the menu at the restaurant only came with tofu. It had no sauce. The tofu was mushy and untreated in any way. It was extremely bland. I would not recommend unless you are desperate. The only positive is that it was pretty healthy. Unfortunately the Sawmill Market was not vegan friendly, so I would avoid the whole market altogether.

This was going to be a three star review for me based on an average of all the food / taste and the…read morepackaging being used. But.. Giving this place an upgrade on the star rating for two reasons: 1: The fried rice is excellent. Dare I say best in New Mexico. It just had the perfect flavor and texture, everything was cooked so authentically. Absolutely loved it. If this was all I ordered they would probably get a full 5 star rating. 2: The service was really good. The lady over the phone explained the options and although uber eats lacked an option to select a spice level she let me tell her what I wanted over the phone. The pad Thai was decent, above average, nice flavor. The pad see eww was what I would expect, it met expectations. You're probably wondering why would I have given this place a 3 or 4 star and not 5? Well a couple reasons. 1: They use styrofoam packaging. I know it's cheaper but it's cancer causing, many states have even banned it. I just felt weird eating a hot meal from a cancer causing plate. 2: the shrimp was okay but it had a mild fishy taste that was a bit off putting, also didn't like the tails still on but that was less of an issue. All in all. I would still visit this location when I'm able to leave the house and get this fried rice and the pad Thai, for sure!
