Incredible Hawaiian BBQ! So happy that the locals told is about this place. They do the staples incredibly well. Service and food were awesome! We had the Shortribs and the Katsu. Also the Spam Musubi and the fresh Poki. So tasty. Parking sucks! Lol! But it’s worth the walk down the street.

Solid grill food with a variety of options on the menu. The waitress/cashier was super friendly with explaining the terms. Definitely a warm friendly vibe!

Not too impressed. Fair to medium decent food. If you’re looking for a comparison try the one corner of Homestead and Lawrence in Santa Clara.

The 1st thing we saw when we walked into the place was the cashier eating where the food is ready to serve for customers. It was a big turn-off. We didn’t have the energy to find another spot to eat at since we had just spent our entire day at the boardwalk.

If YOU love Hawaii. TRY the appetizer Spam Rice wrapped in sushi. Chicken Terayaki with Mac & Cheese and rice. Korea ribs are delicious! A small and local place near Cove Beach with good food and good service. Limited parking.

Really enjoyed this little place. I sat outside with my dogs. The food was delicious. The advisor is unpretentious and relaxed.

Decent but not great. Nothing too special. Food wasn’t as flavor-blasted as it could be. Dining room was quite cold to sit in and eat. Very friendly and quick service. 4/5 stars for me.

Always love Aloha. Best Hawaiian Teriyaki in town. The Chicken Katsu is tender and flavorful. Service is fast and polite. Restaurant has a fun layout. Definitely worth visiting repeatedly!
