Serving size on half trays.

Ordered a catering tray for short ribs that said it was would feed 20-25 people. When I went to go pick it up then gave me a half size tray (medium). I was told this feeds 20-25 people. I told them the half trays typically feed 8-12 people. (I did catering for years) they said no the medium tray feeds 20-25 and the large tray feeds 40-50 people. I ended up ordering an additional small tray that they said fed 8-12 people. I get home to serve the food and half of the trays were filled with cabbage and broccoli. The medium tray they said would feed 22-25 people had 30 pieces of short ribs and the small tray came with 14 pieces. That's just about 1 per person. What a rip off!! You are lying to people with your serving sizes and trays.

Long hair found in our food on 01/16/26 7pm ish. Everyone in my family has black and dark brown hair.

Food tasted good, but I found a long blonde/white hair in my daughter's kids meal. Also, I ordered a canned drink and a guava pie and was never instructed or told that I needed to grab it on my own so I left without them and had to return to get them later.

Bruh.  Just do it!  But find the right time and day, I was lucky enough to arrive before the rush and the cooks were Ready!

I needed to take my thirty before continue on for this temp job. It was going to be a trek down south, so, mandated 30 minutes. Might as well eat well. And I just randomly stumbled upon a gem! Hearty Hawaiian food is the way to go when you want to be satisfied for the price. I love Hawaiian food, so, I will be hard to displease. So, even before I tried the food, I already give this place 5 stars because it's clean, I was greeted when I came in and going to use the bathroom now. If there is any way to see how well the food may be, you can tell by smiling employees! Oh and the bathroom, hardest place to keep clean. You know? Thank you for the exemplary service. (After ravenously inhaling the food) The sweet and perfectly seasoned pulled pork gently brought to temperature roomed inside the edible leaf that never takes alway from the meat. Kiluau pork (sorry, my spelling keeps getting corrected incorrectly, just going to be empathetic and move on). Bruh, the rice was sweet and steaming hot soaking the juices increasing the texture and chew to eye closing perfection! If there was Hawaiian macaroni salad that rivals L&L Hawaiian BBQ this place takes as much pride in sticking to what's great. I am assuming the two masubi would of been amazing, one being Hawaiian BBQ chicken and the other being the stapled Spam masubi. But co-workers thought they would help themselves. Eh, it's my fault for thinking I could leave it unattended. I am pretty sure they are a fan now, so, that's a positive! Not to mention where this place is situated, tuck in between where the populace enjoys main stream places and foods, this place was not busy at all nor was there any trouble getting in and out and back on the road within 25 minutes. Makes a difference when you're new and being observed for being professional and independently reliable. Thanks Ono! It was ono ono and all le kind! Aloha!!

The girls works there were super helpful and friendly! Nice food and the price is reasonable too. Highly recommended!

I usually request to replace rice with extra steamed vegetables. The portion sizes here are quite generous and worth the price. I enjoy their grilled chicken and grilled beef. I also like their katsu sauce.

Food took over a half hour when I ordered in person. I would recommend calling in or online. Way too long for a take out order.

This food is very similar to Aloha Stacks in Irvine. This food was amazing!! I feel the Loco Moco…read morewas better here than Aloha Stacks. The rice was cooked perfect, spam and eggs and well, but the gravy was the star of the show. So tasty and went perfect with everything. The Island Chilaquiles were super yummy as well. Everything was cooked to perfection and the rice was a nice touch. Again, both similar to aloha stacks. We got the mango smoothie and the iced Hawaiian coffee. The mango smoothie tasted very fresh and not too sugary. The coffee was pretty basic but had a nice touch of cream on top There is indooor and outdoor seating and you order at the counter (nice and helpful people) and they bring it to your table. It gets busy so go early!!

We came here because the first place we went to was packed, just like the first time we tried going…read morethere. Scramblers also has a long line, but in comparison the wait was more reasonable. I've since removed the other restaurant from my list of places to go. Congrats to them for being so popular, but when people are forced to wait for an hour by default, it's an automatic turn off and they're losing customers. Anyway, while waiting in line at Scramblers we had time to look at the menu which is a big sign hanging over the counter. When we first walked in, though, the sign was still far away, so I also brought the menu up on my phone. I was glad there was a vegetarian Garden Crepe option and the cashier was accommodating when I asked for even more ingredients to be removed. It was packed inside, so when we were asked we told her we'd prefer to sit outside. Outside, there are small wooden signs with numbers on them and you go to the one you're assigned to. We were sat next to a tree which was appreciated because we got some shade. There's also a table with condiments if you want to grab a bottle of ketchup or anything else you might want. At the time I remembered thinking what a nice day it was to be sitting outside, but later learned the air quality was actually bad that day since there was a fire we didn't know about. Also, summers in general have bad air quality because the heat traps the pollution. Then again, even if we chose to sit inside, the door was open for people to line up, so we couldn't have escaped the bad air either way. Also, Scramblers is on the corner of a busy intersection and I saw one car cutoff another car at the turn and the other driver honk and yell at the other driver, so not exactly the most peaceful place to sit down and eat. Anyway, the food tasted good and I ate everything in one sitting. After being to this plaza a few times now, I've learned that it's best to take whatever parking spot you can get even if it's far from the place you're going to. Scramblers is especially difficult to get to, so it was a bit of a walk to and from our car. I've said it before in other reviews, but I curse whoever planned the layout of this plaza, like what were they thinking? Still, there are enough places for us to want to try out to keep coming back.
