We were about 4th in line but the line moves pretty fast. They typically only allow 2 people/pairs at a time as it is very small inside. When people dont adhere to the rules things tend to back up. These are a must try if you love butter with your bread. I swear each roll has half a stick of butter. I also purchased 6 Spanish rolls to compare against Nandings on Oahu. Just as good. After we inhaled about 8 rolls and 3 Spanish rolls the next day, my cousin put the remaining rolls into the airfryer and OMG, didn't think they could get better but they did. Highly recommend but be sure to go early!

We recently catered a wedding and ordered Hawaiian food for 100 people. Luckily, we served and portioned the food from the beginning. Dani's provided one large pan and one small pan of rice. For 100 people??? The first thing to run out was the rice. The portion size is extremely small and I wouldn't recommend them for large events unless you are feeding children. Don't get me wrong, the food was amazing. It's too bad the people at the end couldn't try it.

I'm always on the lookout for good BBQ, and it's nice that in Hawaii we are getting more and more…read moreoptions. So when I was in Kihei not too long ago, I settled on this joint. The wagon shares a lot with a seafood place and what I think was a shave ice stand. There was plenty of off-street parking. It was a blazing hot day, made worse by pavement and a lack of shade or much greenery. You have to walk over some gravel to place and get your order. The window of the truck is very high; I could barely reach it. They do take credit cards. The owner is nice and chatty, and was busy flirting with the young women in line in front of me. Since I never know if I'll be back to a BBQ place, I always go for a sampler plate. The three meat option set me back $25, but the portions were generous and could easily feed two, or maybe even three if their appetites were light. I don't care for coleslaw, so I asked for a double heap of potato salad. But my request was forgotten and I ended up with coleslaw anyway. I was told I could change it, but I didn't want to waste food. The owner said it was pineapple coleslaw and that people who didn't like coleslaw liked it. (I didn't care for it.) There were some tables and chairs but no umbrellas or shade. I was told the unbrellas kept getting blown away or stolen. I didnt want to eat in the car so I sat at one of the tables and hoped for a breeze. The meats I chose were brisket, chicken, and pork ribs. The brisket was best, soft with a nice smoke ring. I tried the house-made BBQ sauce; it was the thin and vinegary type. It was okay, but mostly I went without it. The chicken is usually my favorite, but it came in second here, being a little on the dry side. The biggest disappointment was the pork ribs. The meat was really tough and had to be dragged away, kicking and screaming, from the bone. (It should fall right off.) I liked the potato salad. If I ever go back here, I'll just order a half-pound or pound of brisket by itself.

Yes, instead of just doing catering, they are now offering their delicious dishes okazuya style where you can pick your entrees to build the perfect plate lunch. I have come here quite a few times and I always have a hard time choosing. The prices are incredibly reasonable so often times, I'll get two or three entrees. Pricing is as follows: 1 choice $9, 2 choices $10, 3 choices $11. Really good deal for the amount of food if you ask me! They offer mostly Filipino and sometimes local style cuisine. My all-time favorite is their sweet and sour spare ribs. Sweet, tangy, and just absolutely delicious. I crave it all the time! Other favorites would have to be their chop steak, pork and peas, and chicken papaya. My team and I have also worked with them to cater large corporate events (we're talking 1000+ people) and they have delivered each and every time. They helped make our lunch and dinner service so smooth and we have received numerous positive feedback from everyone that tried their food. Not to mention, their prices and portion sizes are incredibly reasonable. I don't think many other places can compare. If you're considering them for catering, you can now stop by and try out their food at this location. Their menu rotates throughout the week, but you can follow them on social media for the latest info on their menu and their opening hours. Lastly, I believe the parking next to the building will be going away soon, but the Wailuku parking garage is now open and is right behind this building, making it easily accessible. The first two hours are free. All in all, highly recommend T-Ann-J!

Of course we did not know how great a chef Ken was until the night of the party. Everyone agreed that the dinner was better than the night before at the Four Season's Spago restaurant. It was the kind of dinner where you keep eating long past when you knew you were full. Ken and his assistant, Berlin, provided great service. Glasses and plates were kept full the entire evening, and at the end everything was cleaned up and packed away. We highly recommend Ken, especially to those of you planning your event from thousands of miles away. He takes care of it all!

It's no secret that when people in Hawaii think "BBQ," it's standard plate lunch fare. The rest of the menu is fantastic, but Thursday's are the truth. So far, I have had their bodacious beef ribs, brisket, and smoked turkey. All were mouth watering and smoked and seasoned to perfection with big portions. The bakery has also not disappointed. My only knock is that a couple times they haven't been open when the schedule said they should. Normally this might turn me off, but there is literally nowhere else on this island to get this kind of barbecue experience.

We have been here 5 days eating poke everyday so it was time to change it up. Being Chinese, I was drawn to the roast pork which I saw being chopped up as well as char siu and joong ( sold out). So, went with the half pound of roast pork and 4 manapuas aka BBQ pork buns. Even before we left the parking lot, I opened up the roast pork and we each took a bite. We both said "wow, it's so tender, juicy and flavorful". Hubby noted the 5 spice powder seasoning as well. When we got back to the room, I opened up the box and started dipping the roast pork in the mustard based sauce. Double yummy! The roast pork in the manapua is tender, perfect sweetness and plentiful. Next time we come to Maui, we are going to check out their shop. Amazing!!!

If you wish to watch, Chef and his staff will engage in conversation with you while cooking and serving the delicious courses they are making. For our 2 amazing experiences there were signature drinks which were flavorful and refreshing. It is a succulent, intimate and personal experience for you and your loved ones that you will never forget. The food is as good as any I have ever had, maybe a little better because of the experience that comes with it. Chef will go over the menu when you make a reservation. I have had two dinners, however they also do a brunch which we plan on trying next time we visit. I unfortunately did not take pictures either time because I was at family functions both times and we did not have our phones with us, my photo is the amazing meal we had at our second dinner. This is an amazing experience that I highly recommend.
