I had the loco moco, this was good. Could use more flavor but not bad and the portion was huge and the eggs were perfect. BF had the BBQ chicken and teriyaki beef, huge portion, delicious and well-marinated meats, but he didn't like the macaroni. Then I had the spam musubi to-go and that did not disappoint. BF said it was interesting but I loved it since I grew up eating spam in the Philippines. Lol. Place is casual, you place your order on the tablet, pricing is reasonable. It's located in a strip mall with adequate parking.

The menu had mostly Hawaiian options to choose from. The pricing was very reasonable as well. I had the customizable poke bowl ($15.95). There was a number of different options to choose from with different proteins, toppings, sauces, etc. I had a base of brown rice with avocado, cucumber, sweet corn, edamame, mango, ahi tuna, spicy mayo, ginger, wasabi, jalapeno, green onion, and cilantro. This was nicely done. Everything appeared fresh and it was a good size portion. I would have just liked to seen a little more ahi tuna present, but besides that, very pleasant and filling. I also had the spam musubi ($2.95) and a side of macaroni salad ($3.95). The musubi was okay. It was a little dry. There needed to be more sauce present. The macaroni salad was a heaping portion, and it was tasty. There looked like a lot of mayonnaise present, but it was not too overpowerful as some type of sugar seemed to be incorporated to balance it out. Regardless of what it was, the salad was flavorful. Will I go back? I would.

They have many menu options ranging from preset poke bowls, to make your own, combo meals, and mini meals. Drinks are about $2.50 a piece, and a wide variety of Hawaiian Sun, casual soda. I was tempted to get the mini meal since I don't eat a lot, but I ultimately caved and decided to get the combo meal since I wanted to try the Kailua pork too. The verdict? The Kailua pork was a little too salty for me, it comes mixed with like cabbage or lettuce, and overall very mushy which I didn't mind. However the Chicken Katsu came with a bbq type sauce and everyone thought the sauce was delicious. My fiance ordered the bbq mix which included the bbq chicken, beef, and short ribs and I thought the beef was so yummy. The portion size was big. All the combos come with either 1-2 scoops of rice and macaroni salad. My meal was pretty perfect for 2 whole meals for me. I ate the katsu with my leftover rice for breakfast the next morning! The food comes in takeout containers which makes it very easy for you to take to go if you don't finish. I might have to come back and try the poke next time...

I rarely get takeout because of all the fees on doordash/grubhub, but this place is beyond worth it. It's on the cheaper side of takeout options too, especially for the generous portions you get. I can easily make 2+ meals out of one combination platter. I start craving the BBQ chicken combination plate if I haven't had it in a couple of weeks. It's the perfect bite with white rice, mac salad, flavorful BBQ chicken, and cabbage. I've also tried the kalua pork and found it just as delicious. If I ever move from Philly, Mahalo will be one of the last few meals I'll have here because I'll miss it.

This place is a HELL YES. We needed some food after seeing a concert in the park nearby. We walked…read morehere and got two loco mocos. These plates were heavy! They put the loco moco on a bed of cabbage which was new to me. I liked it but definitely couldn't eat all of the cabbage. The beef patties, gravy, and eggs were all cooked perfectly.

The bathroom is very small as others mentioned. I'm not sure my 6'4" husband would fit, but my son and I were grateful it was there for us!

I ordered the Akamaru Modern Ramen, the BBQ short rib plate, and the mango shaved ice everything was absolutely delicious. The short ribs were incredibly tender and flavorful, paired perfectly with rice and their macaroni salad, which is surprisingly SO good because I normally don't even like macaroni salad from restaurants. The ramen was rich, comforting, and full of flavor as always. The mango shaved ice was refreshing and came topped with popping mango pearls and mochi, which made it even better. The ambiance is nice bright and decorative. Clean. The service is always great, and Jimmy always remembers me and is so welcoming every time I come in. The ladies in the front are pleasant and everyone teams up to ensure you have a pleasant dining experience. Everybody I've brought here ends up loving this place too. My total was about $55, and since I paid cash, I even got a little discount, which was a nice bonus. Definitely one of my favorite spots! If you go, I hope you enjoy it like I do.

Worth reconsidering this place…read more We just reached out to place a large order because we love the food so much. We frequently order from here but wanted to try something new. When we called in to confirm that the Udon noodles do NOT have egg (as we have a child with an egg allergy), the woman taking our order curtly said "I threw out the box, it's white, you have to look for yourself." When we mentioned we do not know the brand to look, she replied "me neither, I threw out the box." Needless to say - the food is great, but honestly, the family owned business officially sucks. There's a way to respond to things and that just isn't it. Especially as someone taking orders. So thank you for ending this streak for us. The crap service made it easy to make this place a 1 star.

It is just a container of rice and a container of prepared poke; that is it. Instead, it took 5+ minutes today because the food person was making a custom bowl for another customer at a snail's pace. Meanwhile, the register person was standing around doing nothing, and the manager was either busy or unaware of this. A line of irritated customers started to grow.

You can even taste the grains of miso particulate, giveaway #1 it's packaged microwaved. The noodles were so overcooked, they were almost mushy.

I'm not a food snob, but this is offensive. I can have a full meal of Shin Ramen. This is worse, much worse. I can count on one hand the number of times I quit eating cuz of how bad the food is. This is one of them. Literally felt nauseous and sick halfway thru. Show some respect for your customers, Kailani. Your ice cream is decent.
