According to Google Maps, that location is now the home of Mom's Donuts. (How appropriate, being that today is National Donut Day!) I would take a screenshot, but the fascist regime that is our IT department doesn't allow the tools to do so. From what I can tell on Google Street View though, it's believable that it was once a Polynesian themed place, although a little small.

Did Helen Yue own Mishimas? That was my all-time favorite restaurants, that and Helen Yue's on Rosecrans in Gardena as a child/teen.

Whatever became of Helen Yue? Does anyone know?
