You have to try the Aloha Tots! Crispy, delicious tater Tots topped with Kahlua Pork, over easy egg, green onions, spicy sauces! Soo gooood!

I tried this restaurant for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The tacos and sliders were delicious. I highly recommend trying them with their sauce!

So good! I had the aloha sliders and a side of mac salad. The sliders were awesome! They had smoky, tender pork, a crunchy slaw, and their Nunya sauce on a soft, sweet Hawaiian roll. I added a drop of Sriracha to each bite and it was heavenly such a great balance and contrast of flavors all coming together. I wonder if griddling the cut surface of the roll golden brown would have taken things to the next level. The mac salad was creamy and cool, so satisfying. I would have preferred a bit more crunchy veg in it, but it was the perfect accompaniment to the sliders.

Great place for easy but fulfilling takeout! Ordered Luau plate with pulled pork. I wish kimchi is included, but it is something you need to order extra

The chicken tacos were tasty, but I personally enjoyed the tofu taco more. The chips I ordered were well-seasoned, although most of the seasoning was at the bottom of the bag. I will likely return when I am in the mood for more delicious Tofu Tacos.

This bustling eatery offers a unique blend of Korean, Mexican, and Hawaiian cuisines, perfect for a quick lunch or a post-workout bite. While some dishes, like the Kalua pork sliders and Kimchi fried rice, received mixed reviews, others, particularly the pork katsu sandwich and happy hour tater tots, were praised for their flavor and quality. The vibrant atmosphere attracts a crowd, especially during lunchtime, though seating is limited. While some diners expressed concerns about portion sizes, the overall experience remains positive, making this spot a popular choice for casual meals with a fusion twist.

For the price, the portion size was pretty small. The food I got was tasty, and I gotta give props for the cooks for having gluten options.Overall, I enjoyed my food, but I found the flavors quite basic. They simply don’t have the depth or that something special that I couldn’t easily make at home.

Great food, amazing location and friendly staff. The beer on tap was a little disappointing but certainly not bad by any means. Very clean and offering interesting decorations.Kid-friendliness: I'd be happy to bring my kids here to eat.

I had the taco salad with tofu . It was a bit disappointing, basically Cole slaw plus tofu.

I'd call this place a Korean Mexican Hawaiian fusion spot. The score would be much higher if only reviewing one item.4.5/5 I'd get the pork katsu sandwich and skip the rest (at least based on my selection from the menu). Super crunchy and deep fried, the meat is juicy and the pickled cabbage is a good balance. The sauce is also flavorful (Might have been spicy mayo?)2/5 Spam musubi was very salty didn't have the typical sweet sauce to cut the salty fatty spam.Surprised they say they're known for tacos and sliders, since they were just okay.3/5 Kalbi Tacos: not bad but the flavor profile was not very deep the protein quantity was lacking and not in every bite, overpowered by the veg.2/5 Pork sliders: same thing on very little meat, also kind of dry meat that wasn't very flavorful. Mostly bread, so the ratio was amiss.5/5 to the person manning the POS!Ambience wise it's definitely crowded during weekday lunch and there's only outside table seating (inside is bar/countertop type seating at the window). So overall not much more a quick grab and go style place.

The staff at this restaurant was very friendly and accommodating, despite the small size and high demand. After trying the food, I quickly understood why there were so many people eager to eat here. Although it may not be the healthiest option, it is definitely worth indulging in on a cheat day. I enjoyed everything we ordered, and the outdoor seating with street tables and chairs added to the cool vibe of the place. You should definitely give it a try - you'll love it.

The miso chicken was excellent, the kalbi was delicious, and the spam Hawaiian slider was very tasty. The happy hour tots were fantastic, and there was a generous amount of food for a reasonable price.

Got some lunch here, mainly because it was close to my hotel, but it was so good! The guys were really nice and the food was amazing. I only tried it on my last day in Seattle and wished I came sooner. Definitely know where I will be stopping in next time!

A great spot for a quick lunch. I ordered the tacos, lump, and tater tots. While the tacos didn’t stand out to me, the lump and tater tots were excellent. The line can get busy around noon, but it moves swiftly. Overall, a fantastic place for a speedy and flavorful meal.

This restaurant is a great spot for a quick lunch in the area. I tried the tacos, lumpia, and tater tots. While I wasn't a fan of the tacos, the lumpia was delicious and the tater tots never disappoint. The line may be long around lunchtime, but it moves quickly. Overall, a tasty and efficient dining experience.
