  Very casual. Walk up ordering. Picnic tables to sit at. Food cooked quickly. Chicken katsu was very good. It came with rice and pasta salad which were good as well. BBQ Bacon cheese burger was smashed and overcooked. Added additional bbq sauce to make it better. We ate at 2:00 pm. The restaurant is located next to a road in Hilo with outdoor seating. Slightly noisy, but not overwhelming.

  The cashier was friendly enough but that had to be the worst food I've ever eaten that didn't make me sick (yet). We ordered burgers and chicken shoyu. The burger was raw and even if it had been cooked the whole way it was somehow worse quality than McDonald's. The chicken though...... It was pure salt, grease, tasted like it was left out too long and soured. It was gritty like it was overcooked. I gave some to the person I was eating with and she made a face, and said that it tasted like poison. Even the rice was dry, like Chinese take out that was left in a container for a day. How do you mess up rice????? I was too afraid to try the mac salad based on everything else so I can't say if it was any good or not. Im new to the island so I can't say what prices are like here but for 3 terribly poor burgers and whatever that chicken was ....$60 feels like I was robbed. I'm not sure what happened but we left and went to a local McDonald's. Learn from my mistakes and just go to McDonald's or something else in the area.

  Shoyu Pork was on special today. Got that with extra Mac. It was delicious. Almost as good as moms. The aunty taking orders was super sweet and the expo was professional and courteous. After 20 years living abroad, happy to come home and see this place still going. 🤙

  The food at this establishment is GARBAGE. I got the Barbie plate and it was hands-down a pathetic meal that was quickly put together mindlessly. The two hamburger patties included were small and unappealing paired with a scoop of rice and Mac salad. My wife ordered the seafood plate that was not much better either. The various seafood items included were all fried and tasted old...like food that you would receive from your elementary school cafeteria. If this is the junk that they produce then I don't want any of it. SIMPLY GROSS. It was our first time here and it's definitely our last. Buy at your own risk.
