    Spam musubi

    This location is horrible at making musubi. The spam looks uncooked with the smallest dab of sauce on it!!! Ugh I'm so disappointed! No flavor except the saltiness of the spam. I was craving this so bad because I've had amazing experiences at other locations and I'm pregnant lol but I know now not to go to the one around the corner from my house for it. Please do better or hire cooks that actually try.

    Worst plate lunch ever.....Teriyaki Chicken/BBQ Beef

    This is the worst Hawaiian food I've ever had. I could have purchased the terriyaki chicken and beef from Panda Express for less and I would have had bigger portions for $3.00 less. I ordered the teriyaki chicken and beef plate. Small portions with cabbage under the meat to make it look like you got more. Way too dry and salty. Horrible waste of money. Go to Hapa, Moku, Big Islsnd, or L&L. Pass on Ono. The only thing that looks decent is their Katsu chicken.

    I ordered takeout from this store about 5-6 times. I was sick and took time off to rest at home. Without any nutrition I was hungry today and purchased their food again and was very shocked after receiving it! The small amount of nut bone is not even 40% of the previous normal standard. To me, this is cheating! And you deceived a patient. It is shameful to deceive! I think there is something wrong with the management of this store. Several times before, I have clearly felt that the reduced quantity has inadvertently made me sick. During this period, the reduced quantity is unforgivable! It is recommended not to go to this store, maybe other branches are better!

    We used to live down the street from here and have always loved eating here. Everything is made fresh daily here. So since our move to NE Mesa we don't come as often we just happened to be over on this side of town and decided to come in and grab some dinner to take home. We got the pork and beef it came with salad and steamed rice. I loved the beef it was soft, in bite size pieces, tender and the sauce it was cooked in had just the right amount of kick to it. Now the pork had a nice evenly balance of smokey flavor to it but I wish it had been cooked in a sauce also. Anyways the customer service was great, they had a good system of working together well and the restaurant itself was all around clean I've never had a bad experience here.

    Best Hawaiian Barbecue in this area. The food is delicious and I would recommend the Spam Musubi. It isn't the cheapest but I would definitely recommend.

It's tucked away in the corner of a strip mall, and I've probably passed it a gazillion times and never even noticed it was there. My friend had called the day before to see if there was anything gluten-free on the menu. They were so helpful when we showed up. They had remembered her call and could tell her exactly what was gluten free. This is a very casual order at the counter kind of place. The dining room is simple, but that's okay because the focus is on the yummy food. They have single plates and double plates on the menu. I got a plate that had kalbi and kalua pork. It was served with white rice, macaroni salad, and kimchi. It was amazing! The pork tasted Smoky and delicious, the kalbi beef had just the right amount of sweetness to it. The macaroni salad was also perfect. I got quite a bit of food for my money. I was able to make it into two meals because there was no way I was going to finish it in one sitting. I really like Hawaiian food, and this one is so much better than some of the chain restaurants. It's slightly more in price, but it's 100% worth it. We sat and talked for a couple hours at least. While we were sitting, there was a period when every table was taken. So it does seem like quite a few people know about this place and come. I highly recommend it!

We ordered the rice cake & dumpling soup, jokbal, spicy beef soup, and the hangover ramen. The rice cake & dumpling soup was nice and comforting. I liked the texture of the rice cakes--really chewy--and the dumplings were good too. It was our first time trying jokbal. Honestly, we didn't know what to expect, but we ended up liking it. The portion was huge, and the pork was tender and tasty. The spicy beef soup had a bit of a kick, and the hangover ramen was also good. The broth was rich, and there were a lot of ingredients in it. Everything we tried was good, and I'm glad we came to try this place.
