We were in town for just one night. Being from Hawaii I always want to get Hawaiian food if the…read morecity I'm traveling to has it. I found this place on yelp and decided to try it because of the reviews. I'm glad that I did. First of all I really liked the friendly service. They had Hawaiian music playing so I really felt at home. I let the guy at the register know that I was from Hawaii and he asked if I could taste the food before I left and give him a review. We had ordered the Aloha Family Meal. It comes with 7 scoops of rice, 4 scoops of Mac salad and 3 proteins. We had chicken katsu, kalua pork and kalbi. We paid an extra $2.99 to get the kalbi. It was worth it. I tasted everything and was happy that I chose this place to eat at. Everything was great. This meal is for 4 people but there was only 2 of us. We have a lot of leftovers for the plane trip home. I got some gravy to put on the rice and katsu. They have katsu sauce and curry sauce if you want. I tried the katsu sauce and it's a little different from Hawaii. The curry sauce that they have is a green curry. I really only like Japanese curry so I didn't try it. The rice that they use is calrose and this is what's supposed to be used. I spoke with the owner Andy and he was very friendly. He ended up giving me 2 spam music. I can't wait to eat it on the plane. If I ever come back to Dallas I will stop by as soon as I get off of the plane. People please stop by and give them a try. You won't regret it.

I specifically asked for no green onions on my food and get home to see the portion size and nothing but green onions. I called numerous times before I got someone on the phone who told me I could come back snd they would remake it, however with the traffic, not worth it. She told me she would put my name down so I can come back and have them remake my food. The Mac salad seems to get worse. It's noodles with too much mayonnaise and there seems to be no seasoning. The rice was dry like it was sitting out or over cooked. Just not worth the money spent.

This is the second time I've gotten non-stop coughing and sore throat from this place. There's…read moresomething wrong with their orange juice/guava combo. I do not recommend eating here just for this alone. My guess is the juice is just some garbage ass mass produced slop and isn't even organic. I rarely leave reviews, have eaten at over 100 plus restaurants. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT JUICE. You can buy and drink orange juice from any other store, restaurants and never had this weird issues.

This place never misses, I'm talking fresh food and they don't skimp on the meat or sides!…read more My go to plate is the Ekolu with teriyaki chicken, kalua pig and katsu chicken and every plate has come out fire, ordering in person or to go. If you order here, and like a little bit of spice / kick too, make sure to get some Yeobo sauce, it's like a spicier teriyaki. Whenever I'm craving Hawaiian barbecue, this location has become my go‑to spot. You can see it especially leaves the doggos wanting some too

There are a few spots around that are Hawaii-inspired, but nothing compares to this. Honestly? Think of it like Zippy's or Grace's Inn, but even better and affordable. #iykyk My husband spent most of his adult life in the islands and ordered Loco Moco (two eggs, two patties, total classic). I went with the Fried Fish and Teriyaki Chicken. The fish was crispy and the chicken was tender. Yum! Every plate lunch comes with cabbage, mac salad, and rice. Broke da mout! Huge bonus! They have a drive-thru. You don't even have to get out of the car to get a quality plate lunch. We will definitely be back. Mahalo nui loa!!

It has been a couple years since I been here and to be short and sweet, I probably won't be back…read more Service was good time as we got our food within ten minutes. Very clean place with fun Hawaiian programming on the tv. Restrooms in good shape. Food has lost it. What tasted like spoiled rice came under my loco moco. The meats in BBQ plate were all flash fried, way overcooked and bland. They don't carry several things like lau lau, Portuguese sausage which are Hawaiian staples (I was born there). They still do a great Mac salad; also the spam musubi was good....but TBH I would just go further down the highway to Shaka's for better local style island food.

The Kalua pork is similar to pulled pork and had a nice smoky flavor. The Katsu chicken and tempura shrimp were definitely favorites, but the pulehu chicken was the most surprising with how tender and flavorful it was! Will definitely come back especially if they continue to play Studio Ghibli movies on the TV ;D

The chicken had a nice little crunch to it and it tasted amazing, especially once you drizzle the sauce on it. Surf and Turf Plate was also delicious - I ordered it with half bulgogi beef and half coconut shrimp. The bulgogi beef was full of flavor and I loved the crispness of the shrimp. All their combo plates come with rice, macaroni salad and an egg roll. The portion sizes were great and well worth the price.

You order and pay at counter then pick your plate at window to left of register when ready. Drink station in room to right of register. You choose your size plate that comes with rice, chosen protein(s) & a side. We each got a small plate ($12.99) that comes with rice, one meat, one side, & aloha sauce. The HAWAIIAN CHICKEN was delicious! So juicy and flavorful! Rice was good. SWEET & TANGY SALAD was good but average (good choice of lettuce mix. Dressing is like a tangy italian). My Mom's GARLIC BUTTER SHAVED SIRLOIN was the bomb. The MACARONI SALAD is good but needed a little something in my opinion - maybe some fresh green onion on top. The aloha sauce is good. We will be back to try more!

I love guava and their confection was perfection. I seriously still think about it and can't wait to come back and try it again. I also got the wings, which were crispy and super favor full. I also got to try the butter and pumpk

Alright now, this place is a gem!…read more I work with someone who raves about this place, and I finally decided to try it. Walking in, the young lady at the register was so sweet and pleasant. I had an online order and arrived a bit early, she politely let me know there would be a little wait, and I did not mind. I would, much rather wait, than walk in twenty minutes early to see my food just sitting there. It is a small space, but one that comes with warmth. What I chose: Mixed Plate Teriyaki Beef - The first bite, YES! The meat was seasoned so well, I was afraid the teriyaki sauce would overtake the flavor; it didn't. Both, the sauce and the seasoning complemented each other very well. The beef was thinly sliced and free of fat. I can't stand enjoying a bite, and out of nowhere, boom, a piece of fat. I'm not a beef person, but I'm so happy I tried something different. Hamburger Steak: I couldn't wait to try this, it's delicious! The patty is plenty and well seasoned; it isn't heavily seasoned, but well seasoned. It was juicy and not dried out, which sometimes happens. The gravy was perfect, and went perfectly with the meat patty. Next time, I will ask for more gravy and onions. I love grilled onions with meat patties. With my order, I asked for steamed veggies, but received rice instead. I don't eat rice often, but this is the one time I was happy with the mishap. I had a small bit with the gravy and patty, delicious!! Sides: Mac Salad and Rice - I didn't order rice; instead, it should have been steamed veggies. As I said above, the rice ended up being a great mishap; it was perfect with my meat patty and gravy. The mac salad, sadly, I didn't like. It wasn't horrible, it just didn't hit the right taste buds. Chocolate Mac Nut Cheesecake: I only tasted a spoonful of this, but it was good. I wouldn't get it again, for me, it was too sweet. They do have another cheesecake, which looks like a plain cheesecake, with a sauce on top. That, I will try. Spam Musubi: There seems to be more rice than what I am used to, so I cut it in half, and it made for the perfect bite. This was more than enough food; I have plenty to take to work for lunch and will have more to enjoy for dinner. I am so happy I visited. I will definitely visit periodically for a hamburger steak, and I am anxious to try their panko shrimp. Add them to your list, it is a must!!
