Kono’s Northshore opens in Las Vegas with its first restaurant outside of Hawai‘i - Eater Vegas

"Kono’s Northshore is famous for pulled Kalua pork slow-roasted for 12 hours, and then served in toasted French roll sandwiches, inside its version of a burrito dubbed a bomber, and in plate lunches and bowls. Kono’s got its start in Haleiwa on the North Shore of Oʻahu back in 2002, and the new Washington Avenue location in Las Vegas is the company’s first restaurant outside of Hawai’i. The restaurant opens daily at 7 a.m. with breakfast bombers served with eggs, cheese, and potatoes, and wrapped in a warm flour tortilla, with optional extras of bacon, pork and Portuguese sausage. Lunch sandwiches arrive with Maui onion potato chips and fillings of turkey, Kalua pulled pork, bacon, and avocado, and servings of white rice are added to the plate lunches. Kono’s also pours multiple flavors of milkshakes, including orange popsicle, cinnamon roll, Key lime, and coconut cream pie flavors." - Bradley Martin
