THE FOOD & DRINKS:

All dinners come with an all-you-can-eat soup and salad bar and homemade rolls.

We had the mixed pu pu platter (deep fried sui mai, won tons, and spring rolls)

I had the “Chinese plate” (battered fried shrimp, char siu, spare ribs, chicken chow mein, and fried rice; I used to work at a Cantonese restaurant, um, we’ll just say “not recently”, and this meal was a real blast from the past, (including the spare no lean spare ribs!)
My husband had the ono (charbroiled with butter and a little garlic, served with choice of potato (mashed or fries) or rice (white or fried rice)

They bake their own pies, we shared a piece of chocolate cream which was great
The whole meal (two cocktails, appetizer, two entrees, two coffees and one dessert) came to $55)

The waitress mixes the drinks Full-strength mai tais served in a 16 oz water tumbler, appropriately garnished with a chunk of pineapple and a cherry.. I had a pina colada, sans alcohol.

The second visit, I asked for extra garlic on my ono, and it came just as I hoped, charbroiled on the outside, firm and moist inside, and garlicky. My husband went for the teriyaki ahi this time, incredibly fresh. Coconut cream pie for dessert.
