TL:DR; Good food, quick service (even though the line can be long), plenty of seating, accepts Apple Pay, FREE slice of cake or pie when you purchase a Special Plate Lunch.
Born and raised on the island, visiting this place is a normal go to when driving around the island. Every time I come here, I always get either the Loco Moco or the two choice plate. Can you believe there's even a three choice plate?
If you're visiting here for the first time, the parking lot may seem a little small, but there is parking a little further in the back, too. If you've never had a Loco Moco, it's basically a plate lunch with a bed of rice, their famous homemade hamburger patty, two eggs, and a scoop of mac salad, covered in brown gravy.
Now, for those of you who are from Oʻahu and are familiar with the old Kakaʻako Kitchen, their homemade hamburgers taste very similar -- which was one of my favorite places to go to in town.
After ordering your food, they will give you a pager to let you know when your food is ready. You can choose to eat outside on one of the picnic tables under a large tent, or you could drive up the road to Sunset Beach, park your car and enjoy the view. Either way, this is a great place to stop at when heading to North Shore.
