This is officially one of my favorite places! PJ and Woody were great! The food (especially the PuPu platter, cucumber kimchi, and garlic shrimp noodles) were delicious. Their cocktails were stellar, my favorite was the Dr. Lee. So good all around, I can’t wait to come back.

Amazing staff who truly embrace the Ohana spirit. They were all so kind to my 3 young children, engaging with them, walking around with them. They made dining there a relaxing and fun experience!

We originally RSVP’d for dinner, but our plans changed and thankfully they were able to accommodate. Excellent food and drinks, can’t beat the price for what we ordered. The place was really cute, had the teaser appetizer plate and I absolutely loved the crab rangoon. Hubby ordered the combo plate w beef short ribs, bbq chicken and pulled pork, we both loved every bite. I ordered the seafood poke bowl, the sauce was really good.

Just moved to Chicago, my friends were telling us about this joint. Everything we had was really good. My favorite was the spam musubi and kalbi. The egg rolls were huge and flavorful. My wife had the honey shrimp and noodles. We had lots of leftovers and ordered veggie parang curry to go. Can't wait to come back next week with some family to celebrate the Holidays

Greeted warmly by owner. Atmosphere: 10/10. The place was empty but it was cold outside so it might have been cuz of the weather. They have a QR code menu & it was our 1st time there so we needed a min to look at the menu. Our server seemed a lil annoyed that we asked for a minute (twice) but after that she was nice. They were out of Sapporo beer. That was strange cuz there are signs everywhere in the restaurant advertising the beer. My husband ordered their signature drink: Lilikoi. It’s advertised as a drink that has 2 diff flavors. The 1st flavor is before mixing & the 2nd flavor is after you mix it. After mixing, the drink wasn’t great. Before mixing, the drink was GREAT. We ordered the teaser sampler: 2crab rangoons, 2egg rolls, 2tempura shrimps & 2potstickers. The Rangoon was good but there was a lot of cream cheese & little crab. The rolls had cinnamon in them. I didn’t enjoy a savory food w cinnamon. The tempura shrimp was INCREDIBLE. The potstickers were good (comes w two sauces: one tastes like a sweet & sour sauce & the other like a spicy hoisin sauce). We had zesty orange chicken. My husband said he liked it a lot. I felt that the chicken had a fishy after taste so I stopped eating it. It comes w jasmine rice & 4pcs of broccoli. The rice was good but the broccoli was a little hard. I ordered a Tsingtao & was grossed out when I received a dirty glass w lip stains on the rim. I didn’t think to take a picture & didn’t feel comfortable complaining (nor am I trying to embarrass the restaurant but I can’t just keep that to myself. It was a big deal to me. It’s unsanitary). We had Kalua Pig: comes w jasmine rice, kimchi cucumber & mac. It was good but after the dirty glass, I lost my appetite & just wanted to leave. I was questioning the sanitation. Total was $78. Fairly pricey.

Had a great time, ordered a passionfruit drink and my hubby had the Mai Tai. Crab Rangoon was the best I’ve had, had a bit me if the spam musubi. Ordered way too much, but was happy to bring home leftovers. Everything was delicious.
