    Anything in the bakery section is Good. Try the Salmon burger, very tasty. The fries are crispy, which is a plus for me.

    If you have a Dole Whip rewards card, every 10th Dole Whip is free. (If you don't have a card, ask for one.)

    This is only location that sells Dole Pineapple Whipped ice cream in cup. I also love their fried chicken and desserts.

    I've been coming for years and I don't know why I keep coming back. Fried rice portions shrunk MORE, all tastes premade...go to Gardena Bowl.

    Try the loco moco, the sauce isn't too heavy compared to other wannabe Hawaiian restaurants

    Way over priced! $3-$4 for 3-4 slices of Portuguese Sausage. Had to request for a side of green onions for my Saimin. From management on down, they lack aloha and knowledge of how Hawaiian food!
