Anyway this time around I had to check before I left. I really like the flavor of their kalbi ribs, but the macaroni was a bit bland. It was definitely better last time. Hopefully it was just off today because this is our go to for kalbi ribs.

UPDATE to my earlier review: Back visiting Texas from Hawaiʻi and Big Aloha's Aliʻi Cove in…read moreUniversal City keeps delivering. Same aloha spirit, even stronger now. Food is straight fire. Meat Jun (Korean egg-battered beef, so tender), Chicken Katsu (crispy panko perfection), Kalua Pig (that smoky island vibe), garlic shrimp, loco moco, teri chicken, Spam musubi. Big portions, perfect rice, legit mac salad every time. No watered down "Hawaiian inspired" nonsense. Every bite is the real island deal. Hawaii local food is that old school plantation days multicultural mix. Japanese, Filipino, Portuguese influences and more, all blended by Hawaii's cultures. Not strictly indigenous Hawaiian food. Service is family style aloha. Owner and staff super warm, welcoming, full of pride. You feel it in every plate. Portions huge, wait's worth it for the hype (call ahead, brah). As kamaʻāina visiting, this hits home hard. Straight comforting. If you're from Hawaiʻi traveling through, or don't know Hawaii local food but want the real old school plantation days multicultural deal (not pineapple ham pizza), make the drive. Closest thing to home out there. My San Antonio go-to. 5 stars, no cap. Returning every trip!

For what we ordered, there was just too much rice and not enough meat on our plate. The short ribs and garlic shrimp were ok. We thought for what we paid, it just wasn't worth it. I Would consider to possibly come back and try their all you can eat down the road.

Low energy greeting or involvement employees want you to order on the computers first (seems like) they don't know when someone walks in the door (you may be standing for a while before greeted) Just watched someone walk in and walk out after standing without being greeted after 5 mins he drove away without ordering. 4/10 Food is already pre-cooked and just waiting to be ordered just like at a Panda Express. Flavor is good 5/10 Atmosphere when you dine in is quiet no music just hearing the kitchen workers working. However it does seem to be clean in here, organized just super quiet you can hear others conversation. 3/10 Overall I would give it a 2/10, I would order the food but definitely have more ambiance at home or at a park, I wouldn't stay to eat or be expected to be comfortable when eating at the restaurant.

I was visiting my brother in San Antonio and we went to eat. He told me about this place and said…read morethe food is really good. I ordered the honey glazed eggrolls and the Gogi combo. It took about 5min to come out. Let me just say the egg rolls alone would have been an meal. The eggrolla were phenomenal! Great crunch great flavor. The Gogi combo was also fantastic and alot of food for the cost. I paid about 20ish bucks for the food. I could not eat it all so I took it home. Eggrolls 9 outa 10 I eat them again Gogi combo 9 outa 10 to so much food This place is def a hidden gem id come back again hands down

Firstly, we had trouble getting an uber at first and when I called the staff was very friendly and were able to hold the table a little longer which I appreciated. The menu is a mix of Asian Fusion small plates and I would have loved to have had more of a sampling of the menu but it wasn't that large of a party. The cocktails were not too sweet and perfectly balanced. The Fist of Fury was so refreshing and the Yuzu margarita was delightful! The plates come when they are ready and I have to say the food came really quick! All of it was fantastic! Surprisingly the shredded vegetable salad was amazing and one of my favorite dishes! The tamarind glaze on the Chicken Karaage was not overpowering and so tasty. The service was amazing and the vibes of the restaurant were a lot of fun. The bathrooms were down the stairs and there was a little bar off to the side. Would definitely go back! I couldn't stop talking about it the next day to anyone that would listen.
