Kainoa's Hawaiian Grill - Thatcher

On our trip to Texas we got to Thatcher about lunch time. Since we were heading to NM, we wanted something other than Mexican food. A quick Google search found this delightfully different eatery. We shared the sampler plate which had more than enough food for two. All their meats were good. Since it has a Hawaiian theme one of the meats was grilled Spam. It brought back good memories times past. The only knock was the fries. They were soggy and not very tasty.

Be warned their drive thru is not for ordering. You cannot place an order at the window. So after waiting in that line I had to then go inside to order my salad, I also tried to order online, it didn’t work for me. The wait is always long. But the food is good and different fare than the typical Mexican restaurant here in Thatcher. Will come again but wanted to keep others from making the same very untimely mistake.

Excellent service. Delicious court. The chicken salad something or the other. Very recommended. Good work Kainoas Hawaiian. I'm back.

If you close your eyes and take a bite of the Bulgolgi Beef or Kalua Pork, it almost feels and tastes like you are eating on the islands. The plates come with white rice and mac salad. The little diner has an island vibe with Hawaiian music playing in the background. Also, the workers are quite friendly. In the middle of Graham County, the island spirit lives. Mahalo for the ono grindz!

Workers were very nice. The food I had was pretty basic, but was good. Can't wait to go back and try more options!
