"Hawai‘i’s oldest continually operating restaurant that evokes childhood memories and old Hawai‘i through a spare menu of under a dozen items—think liver and onions and small local fish such as ʻōpelu—served with a large bowl of rice and multiple small melamine side dishes (often including potato macaroni salad), preserving an old-school, communal plate experience even as some items like udon and bread have disappeared." - Hillary Dixler Canavan
