This tiny gem is huge on flavor and service. Their food is made with love and you taste it in every bite. Youre greeted with a huge aloha from the staff. Food is made fresh and your wait is minimal. I cant wait to get through the whole menu. Everything we had was amazing but that Mac Salad is unbelievable! Mahalo!!

We enjoyed lunch here for the first time yesterday. What a great little place downtown! Friendly service and generous portions. We ordered chicken katsu and musubi. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. True flavors of Hawaii right here in CoS. Well be back next time we crave the flavors of the Hawaiian islands.
