    Garlic Chicken
    Jenn G.

    Primo Hawaiian was a pleasant surprise and a definitely a place I'll be coming back to. I've visited this plaza before since it shares the same location as the Lakers store, but I had never tried the food until now. I finally gave it a shot at lunch and it did not disappoint. I chose to get their Garlic Chicken Plate. The late comes with two scoops of rice topped with furikake and a scoop of mac salad. I asked if it was okay to do two scoops of mac salad and one scoop of rice, and they nicely accommodated. The garlic chicken was crispy with a surprise sweet twist from the glaze. It paired perfectly with with the white rice. I also loved the creamy mac salad with small chunks of potato. For $18.99, I thought the portions were generous and more than enough for sharing. I really enjoyed my lunch here. The food was so ono, the price point was just right and the service was good. I definitely can see myself coming back here. I am excited to try their other dishes in the near future.

    When in the area I stop by here. Aloha feeling right when you walk in from the decor to the great customer service from Micheala. I ordered the Loco Moco that hit the spot. I will definitely come back again. Mahalo

    Chicken Cutlet

    Ordered the chicken cutlet w/ gravy. I would go here to grab some quick lunch, but this time, I'm probably not going to get food here anymore. When I opened up my plate lunch, my chicken cutlet smelled like it was marinated in bleach or some kind of cleaning solution. I don't know I kept eating it thinking the smell is going to diminish. I couldn't eat all of my food and I threw it away. I was disgusted. I didn't notice the business has changed its name from Tasty to Primo. Even in the past, I got a sprite fountain drink & it tasted like bleach. It's seems like they still have the same workers from when they switch the business name. They are friendly but they need to stop putting bleach/cleaning solution in their food. L&L & Wiki Wiki Hawaiian is down the road if you don't want bleach in your Hawaiian food.

    The food was really good here. I think they rebranded their restaurant as the name has changed but the food is still the same and consistent with Hawaiian Cuisine. I ordered the Lau Lau and it was amazing. The portion was filling. The service was friendly and the restaurant was clean. It was busy, so it took longer than normal to get my food. The parking was plentiful and there are other eateries in the complex. If you're around El Segundo or the LAX airport, swing on by to try some good eats, Hawaiian Style.

    We were in the area for a competition at DaVinci High School and found this amazing Hawaiian plate restaurant. The food was delicious, everything was made fresh, and the Mac salad was so traditional - it reminded us of our vacation in Maui! Definitely try this place!

    Loco moco

    If you're cruising through El Segundo or catching a flight at LAX, you've got to hit this spot for some authentic Hawaii food & vibes. It looks like they've rebranded recently, but don't let the new name fool you--the menu is still delivering that consistent and high-quality local style food. I went with the Loco Moco, and it was absolute fire. The flavors are on point, so definitely come hungry. The staff is super friendly and kept the dining area spotless. Plus, the parking lot is huge, which is a rare win for LA. Come give this place a try!!

    Food is salty. And when asked about it they did not offer to redo the food, but offered a scoop of rice.

    Came here at the recommendarion of a friend from college and was blown away by how good the food…read morewas. I never really liked poke so I don't usually order it but I would definitely come here regularly if I was a local. I got the garlic shrimp and crunchy garlic poke, and highly recommend both. Honestly I was tempted to get a bowl to go for home later. Prices were more than fair, as a regular bowl (which included two entrees, a side, and a soda) only cost $17 after tax. Service was really friendly and helpful, and they offer samples for you to try before buying. The interior is spacious and cozy + bathrooms are spacious and very clean as well.

It's become my go-to neighborhood poke spot when I want something good without having to drive too far. I've tried the spicy ahi, which is pretty good, but surprisingly the ponzu salmon has become one of my favorites. I also really enjoy the creamy crunchy garlic poke. I usually get my bowl with white rice and a side of seaweed salad, and it hits every time. Their Spam musubi is also really good if you want a little snack on the side. The gentleman who is usually there (I believe he may be the owner, but I'm not sure) is always so nice and welcoming, not just to me but to everyone who comes in. Great customer service every time. There's seating both inside and outside, and overall it's just an easy, solid neighborhood spot. Grab a poke bowl, add a Spam musubi, and you're good to go. Another neighborhood gem!

There's no seating inside the restaurant but there's a large table in the middle for those who may want to stand and eat. Service was great and the staff were friendly. While I was not the biggest fan of the food due to me finding it bland, I did appreciate the prices and the portion sizes. For a large plate, we only paid 10 dollars. The portion size was huge and the amount of chicken, rice and veggies they gave you were great. I would try another dish before I say I wouldn't come back but I appreciated the experience.

Absolutly pathetic with basically nothing on it filled with fat and just skimped the hell out of me, Even with the Beef i got was the smallest corner of beef, i have wver been served. its was basically a BBQ Chicken plate. Also the chicken had the most fat on a BBQ Chicken plate i have ever seen in my life i was absolutly furious when i finished this plate. The second photo will show you all the fat i pulled of JUST the BBQ Chicken and mind you when i have came here never ONCE have i had FAT on my chicken, its always 100% Straight chicken and this will be the LAST TIME i come to this business. None of them, i wont be back too L&L and The portion sizes have droppped drastically, i used to get the BBQ mix plate, Eat half of it and be full and wouldnhave more than enough to save it for later and would deff two meals out of it. That why i would buy the BBQ Mix plate. Never agian, im going to Ono Hawaiian.

    Why has no one told me about this gem??…read more As soon as you enter the restaurant, it feels like your grandparents home. I mean that as a compliment, follow my train of thought now. There is so much love, so much heart that is put into the food. Additionally, the amount of food is coma sending. I finished the food and was so ready to take a nap in the warm weather. It's literally like eating grandma's food when youre a young child. The spicy tuna came out first and we were shocked at how delicious the fish was. There wasn't a lot of rice which I appreciated and that fish had a bit of a kick. Pair that with some wasabi shoyu and you're tasting some real goodness. The spam musubi was solid with the furikake. My only gripe was that it had a bit too much rice which could have been better balanced with a thicker slice of spam. Regardless, it was solid. Now the star was the chicken combo. Boy oh boy, that Ladybug Fried Chicken was amazing. The batter had so much flavor and added to the juicy chicken. Pair that with you salad and mac salad.. oh my.. youre tasting a slice of Heaven! Fair warning, there is some grinded celery in the mac salad, so if youre allergic then let them know. Otherwise, that aroma of celery added so much depth to the mac. I can't emphasize enough, there is so much love in the food and the servers take gooooood care of you. It was also amazing to see how much attention to detail the owners put in the restaurant. There is ladybug decor all throughout the place and hand drawn papers from customers. It was really neat to see how much love they receive from their customers.

We ended up just getting the veggie rolls to give the place a chance and will grab lunch elsewhere. We saw several people try to open the door then leave because it's so heavy. As we waited for our rolls, we saw the loss of 7 customers due to the heavy doors not opening on first try. The chairs are very wobbly. Inside is loud and designed like a factory. The guy my son opened the door for tried to order 4 different things they were also out of. May I suggest to put a wedge under door to prop it slightly open, because those doors are gonna put you out of business. Or put a sign on door, "yes, we're open, door is just heavy." The veggie rolls were good though.

I had the entire lot myself. This spot must get busy for lunch with all the businesses in the area but this is the second spot I visited and both times, it was basically dead and I could have done donuts in the lot. Free too. Service was ok. It's not table service. Order at the counter. Wait to be called. Grab your dinner and eat or take it to go. Gentleman behind the counter was friendly enough. I don't know if all orders are packaged like it's takeout, but it's how mine was served though I told him I'd be dining in. To the food. Had the Feast plus two Musubi's (Portuguese Sausage and Spam). For the Musubis, too much rice. I could barely taste the meat and sauce. For my taste, I would have liked a little more sauce. I wouldn't order this again. For the Feast, I requested all Mac Salad. The Feast was ok. The Beef was on the salty side. Not so much that I would have asked for rice to balance it when I was eating and the rest was standard. I felt the portion size leaned towards the smaller end on the spectrum. I did like that there's both indoor and outdoor seating. Inside in case it's cold or raining and there's a large communal table if you have a small group. If you have a large group, probably best to eat outside. Since the Musubi didn't quite do it for me, I'll have to test (next time) the Kalua Pig and Lau Lau to see if this really does remind me of home.
