Absolutely loved this place. We tried a few other places to eat but this was our favorite. We came back several times and this was our go to. Food is delicious, fun way to try some local dishes, service is good, and we were well taken care of. Highly recommend! Officially my favorite place to eat on the big island!
Took long to get seated - table waiting system was a little weird. Nothing outrageous abt the service, its just that it took long to get knives/plates. Food is good tho, servers are friendly too
We arrived just before closing ( I know, that's a rude thing to do, but we were hungry travelers). The staff graciously welcomed and seated us. Their local food IS TO DIE FOR, and we fully appreciate the warmth and aloha that was served.
Oh my god the amount of food you get from this place is INSANE! You truly get what you pay for here and it does not disappoint. Everything tastes really good and you better bring two stomachs with you otherwise you’re taking leftovers. The staff is extra friendly. Make sure if you put your name down, one of your family members stay nearby as they’ll call out your name and if you’re not there they will erase your name from the list. Nice seating outside and inside.
We ordered to go...took about 15 mins... Table wait time at 1215 on a weekday was over 45 mins. Food was absolutely yummy. Ordered the deluxe saimein and everything was flavorful. Also got the OG poke. Wow, also really good tuna poke. It's legit. Really good portions...we ordered the 2 and was shared amongst 2 kids.
This is must try in Hilo, and very family style restaurant and food portions is huge, definitely for those who are curving for satisfaction, Poke bowl is so frash！ order the Hawaiian plate I personally think this is best so far from all 4 islands
Generous portions for the price. The menu had plenty of options, and everything we ordered tasted great. Really impressed with the quality and consistency across the board. It’s clear that the kitchen takes its craft seriously, and the staff adds the extra touch of care. Happy that I chose this place!
This is a place you can sit back and visit. It's got a homey feel. We had the Kalbi ribs and the Macnut panko Mahi. They were good portions and wonderful tasting food. The portions we large. Took home a piece of their Chantilly cake. Will definitely be back.
