very fun store in San Bruno. The parking lot is small but you'll be able to find street parking no problem. Grocery store has a lot of items that you could normally only find in Hawaii. They also have a lot of seating inside and food that you can buy. I got a poke bowl which was market rate and a butter mochi. Even though the poke bowl was market rate I still wasn't expecting it to come out to be $30+. Poke was just ok. There was a lot of fish in the bowl but there was too much sauce so the entire bowl tasted extremely salty. The butter mochi was pretty good. Overall a pretty fun store. Maybe I'd come back to try their other dishes some day.

Fried Mochiko Chicken Plate -- delicious and fresh, with very generous servings. The chicken was so crispy and light, salted with the right amount. There is salad under the rice and chicken. The macaroni salad had black pepper in it which added a nice kick to it. A really good quality dish. They have a small parking lot, you can find surrounding parking spots nearby on the street. While waiting for your order you can shop for hawaiian snacks and drinks. You pay at the same register for the food and the grocery items.

I think it's safe to say I've found my favorite fried chicken spot. I'm honestly kicking myself for not trying this place sooner! Their mochiko chicken was perfect--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. It was so good that I found myself craving it again the very next day. The shop has such a charming vibe, too--it gave me a little taste of Hawaii with all the Hawaiian snacks and decor. If you're a fan of fried chicken or Hawaiian flavors, this spot is an absolute must-try. I can't wait to go back!!

Loved the food, staff was friendly, no parking lot but I've been there twice and found parking each time

If you like authentic Hawaiian food, this is your place. Food: my husband had the loco moco and thought it was amazing. I had macaroni salad, which was fine. I also had some kimchi, which was also fine. Portions are very generous. If you don't love Hawaiian food, this will not be the place for you. Ambience: feels like places we've been to in Hawaii. Set up like a small store, where you order at the counter, and there's a handful of tables and chairs where you can eat. Very clean, nice, and organized. There's a small parking lot and a fair amount of parking on the street. Probably more of a 4 1/2 but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.

We decided to try this joint out because we heard about it on Check Please! Bay Area. It definitely did not disappoint. There are also many cool little snacks that you can buy here that are from Hawaii. I felt like we were transplanted into Hawaii for the moment. For our lunch, we ordered a poke bowl and the katsu curry. The quantity also did not disappoint. When we first received the food it was like carrying a bag of bricks. The taste of the poke itself was on the saltier side but was good with the rice. The cut and freshness was good. The taste of the katsu was good too. I liked that it was really hot temperature-wise as well. With the two of us, we could not finish the two meals that we ordered. We were able to bring it home for another round. Next time, I think we should just order one meal and share it so we won't have to bring home any leftovers. The average cost per person came out to be about $36 a person (though we did also order a bag of rice cracker snacks). Now, if you also consider that we actually had another meal off this, you can divide by that total by another 2. So, the new adjusted cost per person is actually about $18 per meal. That isn't too bad right? But also note that the poke bowl itself was pretty pricy, it was $30. Next time, I think we will try something else. Maybe the garlic shrimp perhaps? However, we would optimize and just order only one meal for two. But definitely I highly recommend this place. I would also come back again.

What an awesome hole in the wall! As soon as I stepped in, I was transported back to Hawaii, especially with the Hawaiian music playing. Besides their menu items, they offer onigiri, large musubi, and stuffed inari. They automatically packed the lunch plates to-go, but we ate at the tables inside. The portions were massive! I'd say each plate was at least 2 portions, so I definitely had leftovers. The luau katsu curry was hearty and delicious. The chicken was juicy and tender, and the panko was perfectly crispy. The Japanese curry was darker than I'm used to but super tasty. The fried mochiko chicken had a fluffy batter and was covered in a sweet sauce. I really liked the mac salad too. The spam musubi with eel and avocado was pretty straightforward. I definitely recommend this little slice of Hawaii!

Headed over to pick up some dinner at 4:30 pm which was cutting it close to closing time but the store was still packed with people. We ordered up front and walked around the groceries part of the store, a lot of different Asian and Hawaiian snacks. The environment is very lively and the walls are full of color from the signs for shaved ice flavors to signs. We grabbed our order when they called our name and found a couple of seats near the counter behind the tables. Fried Mochiko Chicken Plate - The portions of meat were so generous. The chicken was so light with a thin crisp layer but juicy on the inside. The sauce mostly sunk to the bottom but it was a little sweet and salty, giving it a nice flavor. Kalua Pork & Cabbage - It was my first time having a more classic Hawaiian dish like this one and it was so good. The pork itself was soft and pulled apart so easily with a rich flavor balanced out with pickled onions that added some freshness. We paid 18 dollars for each plate and from the flavor to the portion sizes, would highly recommend it as it will last you a couple of meals. The shaved ice also seemed like a very popular option so I would want to go back to try one of the many flavors next time!

A San Bruno gem!! The authentic Hawaiian made-to-order plate lunches, poke, and assorted spam musubis transports you to the islands instantly. Ambience is nice and casual with great service - you can even order ahead online (link in Instagram). Also had the chance to checkout the little shopping isles while waiting for food where you can buy aloha soy sauce and rice crackers and even bbq marinades. We tried the fried mochiko chicken plate - super tender, decent Mac salad, well-cooked rice - and the chili garlic ahi. Definitely a little pricey but delicious marinade and sizable portion for the cost. The musubis were heavy on the rice but were generous with sauce and flavor! The crab inari was not bad as well - would probably taste fresher if we didn't get it in the last hour of opening. Definitely coming back here to try more of the plate lunches!!

Haven't been inside the store yet myself. But every time my husband brought food home from this place, it's always so good. Just came back from a vacay in Hawaii and we were missing the food. Esp poke. But the food comes to close to the freshness of the raw fish in Hawaii and the fried chicken was soooo good. I've also tried their Musubis and it was great.
