Mo's Special: Rice, Sapa sui, Fa'alifu fa'i, corned beef and teriyaki chicken
Tehani L.

Ordered from Mo's Hut right when I got to the Pacific Feats Festival and they did not disappoint!! Got the Mo's Special and the food was delicious & the customer service was wonderful. I'm pretty picky when it comes to sapa sui but Mo's Hut's was some of the best I've ever had and full of all the right flavors. Everything on the plate was delicious and I can't wait to try all of their other items during my next visit. If you haven't tried Polynesian food or are looking to satisfy your poly food craving, I definitely recommend coming here!! Comfort food straight from the heart foreal!!!

Hubby's friend works at Mo's Hut and he told us to come by on a Saturday to try out their food. We went this past Saturday and ordered their Hawaiian plate. We didn't get a chance to try it out there since we were pressed for time, but once I got home, I immediately took a bite of everything. My goodness! What can I say? Honestly words are hard to describe because there's just soo much flavor to it! It's not even overwhelming. I was savoring my plate because it was that good. Their Mac potato salad is drool worthy! I thought it was just potato salad until I saw the macaroni and man oh man, it just fits so perfectly with the plate! In Hubby's words, "it's A1!" We will most definitely be coming back for more! Supporting businesses like this is always the way to go! Make your way over to Mo's Hut, I guarantee that you will not be disappointed!

Banana in coconut milk, baked taro, corned beef chop suey, teriyaki beef, char siu pork, teriyaki chicken & palusami. 07/23/22

I've heard so much about this place and about a year ago took the leap to try them out. I've been going to them every chance I can get now! Their menu food items are amazingly delicious! I honestly have not had anything from them that I did not enjoy. EVERYTHING on their menu is out of this world! So if you're craving great, nostalgic island-style cuisine, Mo's Hut is the place to go currently located at the corner of Hesperian Blvd & Paseo Grande in San Lorenzo as of July 2022. Their plate portions are VERY generous! Love that they offer side portions of ALL of the menu items that come in the plates. Their palusami is the BEST I've ever had! Char Siu pork is tender and seasoned well as are their other meat entrees like the teriyaki chicken & beef. The green bananas cooked in coconut milk is a favorite for me but their baked taro is the best paired with the palusami. Their chop suey is flavored with just the right amount of ginger, I love it! And their two baked island desserts are a must-have, can't leave without getting some of the pineapple pies and the pāpā. What's even better about their food, tastes SO MUCH better warmed up the next day! (If it lasts that long in your home!)

Bbq chicken, kalbi rib, bbq beef, 2 scoops rice, mac salad.

This business catered an event, and was lucky enough to have a plate lunch, plus tried other items. DELICIOUS food, various grilled meat, corned beef, Mac salad, sapasui. We really enjoyed the generous portions. Better taste & quality than most local Hawaiian restaurants in the area. So good.

The burger patty with egg and rice gravy

This place recently moved to my area in Hayward it is now located at the Ash and Locust Street corner in Hayward where the Portuguese club hall is. There's plenty of parking and everything seem very clean and tidy. There's even picnic tables to come sit at. My hamburger patty egg and gravy over rice plate was $10 and it's easily enough for two sensible people. Get one and split it

Mo himself greeting his customers. Great service!

Love that you can pre-order the malasadas from their site and pickup at Denicas locations ie…read moreDublin. Holidays they offered chocolate bombs Ordered from here twice, orders are always ready by your pickup time. It is hit or miss on flavors for me. I think most are overly sweet and I find myself trying to scrape off the extra sugar on the outside. Some previous star flavors: lemon curd, eggnog, halpia coconut. I love ordering these as gifts for ppl cuz i think most dont mind the sugar haha

Found out about these wonderful malasadas from my sister who mentioned they were selling them for…read morepre-order and pickup from Denica's Real Food Kitchen in Castro Valley and Dublin (Walnut Creek location is closed). Isabella, the owner offers 4 flavor option per week: Thursday - Sundays only with pickup starting at 10am right now...wonderful flavors like pumpkin, espresso, and guava...they also had ube which i know is all the rage but passed on that..not a fan and don't get it. Lol Filling were lightly sweet (which I prefer) and hints of each flavor...my fave was the espresso: custardy, creamy, coffee flavored with the next being the pumpkin. Guava has a very mild flavor and could've used a tad more flavor but it was good! All lightly dusted with granulated sugar *** 4 - 4.5 stars *** I would recommend picking up your order when they're ready as no fried item tastes as good as it sits and best when they're fresh...I picked up mine about 12:30 and 1/2 of the sugar was melted and exterior got a little greasy but still a yummy product! Unfortunately, you can not walk into Denica's expecting to get some malasadas...must go to Instagram and DM her your order which will set you back $12/3. Yeah, yeah will log in for food! Flavors change weekly! Enjoy!

I can't believe I haven't written a review for a business my kids and I frequent all the time!…read moreWe've been coming to Always Yours since it opened. Hands down they have the best drinks, cookies, macarons, cakes, and now salt bread! I always come to get treats for my kid's teachers (for their birthdays, teacher appreciation week, just because, etc.). I've brought friends visiting the Bay Area to this bakery, which they have loved. Always Yours also has fun cup sleeve events, macaron classes and afternoon tea from time to time. We love supporting small businesses and this one is definitely worth supporting! P.S. with all these drink places popping up in the area...we still think the drinks at Always Yours not only taste better, but also are of higher quality.

I recently heard about the salt bread at Always Yours, along with the banana pudding matcha latte,…read moreand knew I had to try both. We heard that there had been some long lines recently and that the bread can sell out fast, so he went ahead of me to get in line before they opened, but he said there actually wasn't a line this time. We went on a Sunday afternoon and got two each of the regular and chili oil scallion breads. Once I got to the cafe, I ordered the banana pudding matcha latte. We sat on the bench outside to eat our bread and noticed that it tasted just a *little* like it had been sitting out for a while. I wouldn't describe it as stale, it just didn't have as soft a texture as we expected. However, it tasted absolutely delicious. I'd recommend getting both flavors if you can. The chili oil one wasn't spicy, in my opinion, it just had a kick of chili flavor. The banana pudding matcha latte was a little less successful. The pudding was great, but it just sat on top of the drink. When I mixed it into the matcha, it still wasn't coming through very strong and the drink tasted almost entirely of matcha. It was disappointing because I love banana so much. I think I'd be better off just ordering the banana pudding in the future. I'd like to come back here on a Saturday to see if the bread is a bit fresher, and I'd order the banana pudding rather than the latte.

Everything is soo flaky, fluffy, and flavorful!…read more Loved every pastry I've purchased here. I also get their ube latte and match latte.

One's Cafe is getting quite the buzz out here in the East Bay. They started with a super small one…read morein Castro Valley (the one I visited), but I just recently drove past their newer Alameda location that looks like a bigger space. The Castro Valley one is super tiny, no indoor seating and really only enough room for about 2-3 people to line up to order for the inside. It's a bit too tight in there for me. They do mostly Asian inspired pastries, mostly using croissant dough in all kinds of creative shapes and sizes. Even though many things don't fit my preference as I'm not big on savory pastries or ones that have meat in them, they do make some attractive and unique looking pastries. So I get it, why people line up for this. But I have tried several sweet type pastries and here are some notes. Custard Tart ($4/5*) Probably one of the best egg/custard tarts I've ever had. This is one of the simpler things in their display case. This is literally a flaky pastry and a well made custard filling. Most everything else in that display case is 2-3 times bigger and much more going on with fillings and decorations. I like simple pastries so this hit on my sensibilities big time. The custard was smooth and not too sweet, very Asian in sweetness. And the best part was the crust, it was so flaky, light and buttery. 10 times better than any egg tart I've had a Chinese or Portuguese bakery. Almond Danish ($7.50/3.5*) This is one of their more elaborate creations, even tho this is somewhat simpler than many other pastries they have. But this name doesn't really correlate with what I tasted, there is a lot more going on. The pastry part is in the shape of a muffin, but the texture is flaky like a croissant, maybe slightly more dense than a croissant. Then there may be a small amount of almond paste in the middle, but there were a lot more of this coffee cream. This was too big for me to eat in one sitting so I split it in half. It was decent but it definitely isn't an Almond Danish. Lol Strawberry Croffle ($5/5*) I love true Belgian/Liege waffles made with a yeasted dough but cooked til crisp in a cast iron waffle press. Not sure if this is Liege style but it carried a lot of the characteristics of one. Crisp from caramelized sugar being cooked in the exterior, nice chew in the center and garnished simply with a strawberry cream. I could eat this for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Cold Brew ($4.25/3.5*) I didn't love it, but it wasn't bad. It tasted better if drunk with one of their pastries. Alone I wouldn't do it again. But as a companion with a pastry, sure. I'll round to a fiver cuz service is usually pretty nice and efficient. And even tho 75% of the things here are too busy and complicated for me, the simple things I have tried, really schmacks. So a fandom has formed.
