Ain't nothing fancy about the restaurant itself. The food is amazing. I had the fish but I heard the Moco loco is one of the best. It's what my sister got. You better have a good reason if you don't eat here when you stay in Maui.

Never been here before in the 5 visits to Maui. We were looking for something casual and tasty. We found it! We were warmly greeted by the staff, placed our order and sat down. The order came out fast and accurate, and my goodness, there was a lot of food in each order. I had the Island Roast Pork and my companion had the Da Bento. Both were delicious. You should definitely check this place out - you won't be disappointed.

Decided to stop here for a quick lunch and it did not disappoint. The staff at the front were honest and helpful, leading me to order the Classic Cheese Steak Sandwich. I got it to-go so I could sit outside with my friends while they ate shaved ice next door. Once my friends saw and smelled the sandwich, they both shortly thereafter ordered the same meal! All of us were very satisfied. This is a good place, super causal and spacious inside. Decent portions and budget-friendly options. Baked goods are also offered! I will definitely be back to try other meals.

Love this place. We found our go-to plate lunch restaurant. Their Crispy Chili Garlic Shrimp was perfect. Each deveined shrimp was large and juicy on the inside, crisped perfectly on the outside. The batter on the shell with the chili garlic bits was perfectly fried. We also got the Big Kahuna (comes with Mochiko chicken; hamburger steak with gravy, mushrooms, and onions; and crusted Mahi). All the good things you'd want on a plate. The saimin was a good addition to complete the meal. The broth was soothing and the noodles were perfectly chewy. Everything was well-cooked/fried and not overly greasy. We left feeling satisfied, but not heavy. So good! Edit: My spouse read my review and said I didn't emphasize how good the fish was in the Big Kahuna, and how great and soothing the saimin and its broth are to balance the meal.

Chili Garlic Shrimp was crispy, loads of butter and perfectly cooked. It wasn't overdone. Note that this dish is shell on.

Best loco moco in town. Lots of delicious gravy and the patties were seasoned just right. Mac salad was excellent. Huge portions, good price.
