Food: Tasteless creativity squandered
Once there was something to look forward to in the soft texture and tropical liikoi hints of their shave ice, the teriyaki chicken's delicious sauce, or the charbroiled onions in the Teri Burger Combo. However, this memorable culinary artistry has hit a bump. The food's new identity bears burnt, rubbery chicken corners soaking in excess sauce, while its quality continues its descending journey into bland mediocrity.
Great Value
High quality, great value especially during happy hour, very satisfying.
Okay Taste
Average Hawaiian food; satisfies cravings but nothing extraordinary.
Small Portions
Portion size was a disappointment, especially the small cup size

Vibe: Decaying ambiance lacks flair
The once bustling diner has undergone a tragic transformation; it's now a vision of outdated decor, worn out and lackluster, unexciting as a forlorn strip mall joint. The dull interior design slashes the promise of a delightful ambiance, making the dining experience utterly disconcerting.
Bad Ambiance
Interior old and musty, and decor is outdated like a strip mall diner.
Perks: Parking perks; service stumbles
While ample parking and the capacity to entertain large group gatherings may be on the plus side, the service here leaves you wanting. The tardy, at times impolite staff, adds to the long waits and less than satisfactory dining experience. Despite kid-friendly menu options, the agonizing service could be a turn-off for family outings.
Great For Kids
Satisfies entire family with diverse kid-friendly dish combinations.
Bad Service
Service slow, inattentive, long waits and rude staff at times.
