What an awesome spot. Came here on a Sunday night -- they were a little busy but we were able to be seated immediately. We tried:Chicken kelaguen - Smoky chopped chicken, mixed with green onions, chilis, coconut, and lemon juice, served cold. We ate it on corn tortillas drizzled with their finadene. Empanadas - Deep fried little spicy chicken pillows. You can't go wrong with deep fried little spicy chicken pillows (and finadene). Musubi sampler - Ordered to appease our friend at the table who had never tried musubi (let alone any Hawaiian cuisine). Needless to say, our friend is now sold. Kamikaze roll - the server said this was probably one of their most popular rolls, and I can understand why: eel, shrimp, crab, and cream cheese, rolled into a maki and tempura fried, then cut up and topped with spicy crab salad, jalapeño, cilantro, and drizzled with sweet and spicy sauces. That roll was LOADED. Definitely stop by there if you're looking for a belly-busting food adventure.

My sister and nieces were in town visiting so, to fulfill everyone's taste, we decided to choose this Guamanian spot. I have ordered food here to go before, I know the quality is top notch.As we entered with a party of six, we were greeted and seated almost immediately. The decor has the beach vibe, islander style for sure.The waitress was really nice and on point, always checking on us if we needed anything.The food here is excellent. We ordered the musubi sampler, which came with spam, teriyaki and katsu musubis. I thought the some of the rolls were sloppy but, it tasted good. With the wide variety of islander food, everyone got what they wanted. We were all full and satisfied.I recommend going here, I likes.

We came to celebrate our bday dinner! The food was delicious! I got huli chicken with red rice. The red rice was sooo flavorful! The macaroni salad was delicious. We also ordered a musubi platter. Everything came out perfect and portions are big! I ate this meal for lunch & dinner. They have a bar and a lot of options for cocktails. There is outdoor seating and casual atmosphere. We didn't have any issues with our service. Delicious!

Such a great establishment, cool vibe, very friendly and welcoming staff! She recommended great options. Ambiance is super chill and relaxing, the music makes you feel like you're on vacation. We ordered chicken skewers with red Chamorro rice and macaroni salad. It was great food, the rice was a little dry but other than that I would order the dish again. We also ordered the teriyaki beef bowl, it was good as well, the only negative was that dish came out cold, it wasn't hot. The bartender gave us these two amazing sauces one was spicy and one was a soy sauce with lemon juice and green onion, both were great! We went during happy hour 2pm - 6pm , we got two drinks the Aloha Juice and Lapulapu and both drinks were great. The bar has a wide selection of premium alcohol and they also have some beers on tap. Great experience, we will come again...the great staff bumped it from 4 stars to 5 stars

It's one of my staples in Bonita when I'm craving island food! I'm actually surprised how long it's taken for me to write a review given that I've been a repeat customer for many years. Drinks:I've actually tried something new this time around!Kahealani's Wave for 4 ppl! The waitress asked us if we wanted the shareable size for around 40 dollars, and we said, "Sure, why not?"This thing was so huge that the party next to us looked at the waitress as she brought the massive drink out carefully with two hands.This drink has several types of alcohol: light rum, gold rum, and 151 Proof Dark Rum! What's more dangerous is that I don't taste the alcohol but it hits you like a tidal wave after a few sips (the name is appropriate, lol). My go-to eats:Chicken Kelaguen. Always fresh, love the bright flavors of this cold dish. Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings. I love the batter and crisp on this. Different from the salt and pepper chicken wings that you get in the Chinese restaurants but different in a good way. Kalua Pig. Always a must! The pork is tender and flavorful. Red Rice This is my favorite guamanian side dish, and I have to get it every time I go here. Check out the bar next door if you get a chance. They have live music, and it's such a fun vibe.

So we did a group work outing and were really looking forward to supporting this business. We had a reservation for ~30 ppl and the carved out an entire patio for us. The service was amazing, but the food......stole the show. We all grabbed some drinks and got appetizers for the table. The island samplers had so much delicious food that it almost the way to start the experience. The empanadas are flavorful and the crust is nice and flaky. The teriyaki wings were also amazing. I wish I grabbed some salt and pepper wing to compare. I got the Hawaiian Combo and I was blown away. The Hulu Hulu chicken was probably the best chicken I've ever had. It was juicy and the sauce was the bomb. I love me some Mac salad so I'm always happy to get a plate that has it. The pork was subtle, tender and perfectly paired with the chicken. I had plenty of left overs and if I didn't I would probably have gotten a to go plate. The repeat customers were singing the praises of how awesome this place is and now I'm doing the same. A definite must try.

I went here for sushi. I ordered the Volcano Roll and the Crunchy shrimp roll and some hot green tea. The service was good. I really wanted a soft drink but they only offer Pepsi products and I don't drink any of them, I'm a Coke guy so that was a bit of a disappointment. The Crunchy roll was good and I had them bring extra eel sauce as I like it with more than they used. My personal preference is for very cold sushi and they only serve warm sushi. I was looking forward to the Volcano Roll but I really didn't like it. I ate 4 of the 6 pieces and I wouldn't order it again. I think that if it had been cold I would've liked it. I don't know for certain but I think so.
