My first time and I've never had Hawaiian food before. Our server, Fox, was so helpful. Everything was delicious. We ordered the ahi poke trio for our appetizer. I ordered the mixed plate, which was a great into to the cuisine. My son got the luau plate the he enjoyed. Serving sizes we're generous, so we have leftovers. Fox was a great server. We will return.

Love my man fries although I had a sad experience when I was on vacation. I had talked up man fries to my ole lady for months before vacationing down south. Came in on a Tuesday and I couldn't get man fries cause for some odd communistic reason fries can't be done on Tuesday. My soul was crushed a little. Wish I lived not 500+ miles away

I wrote a review in the past that gave a better rating. This time I have to give less stars. I'm being honest and actually a little friendly because, they deserve 2 stars. I have visited this location a number of times mostly, at lunch. The food is never consistent and that isn't good. I speak from experience as, I was a chef for many years (I know you don't care). Most restaurants have an SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) that the kitchen follows. This place obviously doesn't. I.E.; We had been in one day food was great, go in a couple days later and we had to send food back twice. Meat has either been dry and bland or so salty I couldn't take more than a bite. The rice is not proper fried rice and the list goes on. It is not just me who noticed this (I'm just the messenger). I don't know if this is supposed to be a family restaurant because we felt it had more of a bar atmosphere. By this I mean, staff could be heard cussing just feet away from our table, loud and, food wasn't prepared well. I wouldn't recommend eating here but, if you tell them you're in a hurry they will accommodate. So, it isn't all bad. Just be warned, if you decide to eat here, your food might be dry and salty and the language might be "put an earmuff on the kids". Others might disagree with this post so, don't let me stop you from visiting.-GSH

Stop and experience it for yourself it’s OK not bad not good just plain old OK very trendy nothing really special about it but the staff was remarkable they really were on top of things and at the same time they were invisible in my case it was a family reception the room is small but everybody floated around so it worked out well the food is good I will probably only go back if there is another occasion but I will not go back just because there was nothing really special about it parking was a little tough.

Very friendly service. Justin is awesome. Greets everyone at the door and makes suggestions for food and drink items.Had the sliders, but the pork ones are better than the beef. Go with pork, their specialty!

Best potential evening of great food for you and yours, as long as service is not a prerequisite. We loved the food but for the first time in our lives, left zero tip. Why? Because our waitresses' fake Hawaiian accent was only equaled by her lack of attention to our table. We wanted to tell an owner, or manager, but none were in evidence, that, "your servers dont care how much time, or money; you invested in this venture.

Great little restaurant with a casual vibe. The menu makes you want to come back even before you order for the first time. I settled on the Kahlua Pork with fried rice and Mac salad Awesome! Great people, nice atmosphere, and really good food. My wife got the Shrimp Truck Special. She loved it-a tribute to the shrimp trucks in Hawaii. A must try if you’re in San Clemente.

Stopped on a casual Sunday, drifting back from Central California to San Diego. This spot was good and authentic! Had the edamame to start, followed by the marinated beef short ribs with rice, greens, and macaroni salad. Magnificent!Homemade fresh lemonade was the topper which made the meal perfect!Highly recommend and will stop here again in the future!

Had late lunch here on a Saturday, place looked pretty empty I am guessing it get packed later in the evening. The place was clean and big with a lot of seating. Service was good, they made sure our drinks were filled. As an appetizer I got the spam musubi, the order comes with two. They were good, I would have them again. For my main course I got the teriyaki beef bowl size, which is smaller than the full size, this size was a good enough amount for me. The taste was good. The plate comes with a side of rice and your choice between green salad or macaroni salad.

Always delicious. From having cold beer and a nice selection of taps to specialty cocktails that are all delicious. Let’s cut to the chase, the food, have you tried or heard about the Kailua pulled pork nachos or the man fries. Poke tacos are one of my favorites as well. Also tried the Maui onion soup last time i was in, flipping amazing, make sure to try a bowl as well.
