Love this no frills joint. Amazing loco moco. Karaage is on point and we love the Pina colada. It's not a high end dining establishment and so waiting for water, plates, etc is not a big issue... I just ask for these things if they are delayed and servers usually deliver it. They were accommodating of your little toddler. We visit this place every time we are in Honolulu for a quick and easy lunch
This place makes monster size shave ice bowls. Family came here after the beach and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I did find the syrup a little bit too sweet compared to other places on the island. This place was managed by one brother taking in all the orders (kudos to him!) So the wait time may be a smidge on the long side. But we had time so this was not an issue for us. Few tables inside to enjoy the AC while you consume the shave ice
Came here for dinner with my wife. We found this place after reading a variety of review articles and it did not disappoint.
We would highly recommend making reservations first as a seat at this place is quite challenging to secure. They have a online reservation system where credit card is required. You can also choose to join their waitlist for same-day dining by texting them through WhatsApp.
The space was decorated in a traditional manner. I think this reflected all of their dishes quite well which can be best summarized as traditional ingredients cooked with modern techniques.
The tripe dishes were fantastic. We had deep fried tripe which was very crispy and seasoned very well. It had a rich flavor which was reminiscent of crispy chicken skin. We also had their tripe special of the day which was cooked in a ragu sauce. This dish was excellent. Other items included grilled zucchini with medlar, sliced veal with a tuna sauce, and their pasta which was tossed in a butter and Parmesan sauce. Each dish utilized very few ingredients but was overall executed very well. I believe this is why this restaurant is so popular. In fact, during our time in Milan, our experience at other restaurants was often compared to this one and had reservations been easier to obtain, we would have gone back for a second dining session!

Came here for dinner. There are two dining options. You can order out from the till to the right of the entrance or dine in at the restaurant to the left of the entrance. I would recommend that you reach out to them for reservations if you intend to dine in as they were fully booked on a Thursday evening when I dropped in. Nonetheless, I was still able to order takeaway from the till and eat it on their patio.
I have to say, this is probably one of the best fish and chips I had while in Edinburgh. The haddock was thick and not dry at all. The batter was thin and golden crispy . It was not doughy or heavy at all. The chips were perfectly cooked! I also ordered the fried crab claws which were fantastic. They did not have langostines on the day I went there. I would definitely return to give their dine in menu a try as the menu is a bit different vs takeaway options.
