Reviews
Never heard of this place but my husband suggested we go here for lunch on our way to our lava boat. This place is probably over 50 yrs old and the food tastes just like they used to make it back in the day. The spam musubi is great. We ordered 10. we should have ordered 30. We ordered ONO NUGGETS, panko and tempura style. Who even does this anymore!!? Real ONO NUGGETS! Should have ordered more of those too.
We also ordered shoyu chicken and those little cute corned beef hash patties. We had a ton of food and then our bill came out to $20 for all 4 of us. Just like 50 yrs ago. Love it. The next morning we tried to call in our order but the phone was busy off the hook all morning. When I finally got through, they had already sold out of the spam musubi, nori chicken, ono nuggets...so don't waste your time, get down here first thing in the morning.

Small mom & pop local shop. Great place to stop to pick up a snack or a solid lunch/breakfast/snacky dinner.
Staff was amazingly cheerful, helpful and friendly (wish I got the name of the man who helped us out-he was wearing a head scarf and had earrings). Went to pick up breakfast and it was perfect. Got 6 items to try in total (ended up being about $6-7). I loved the Inari!! Really nice that the prices are still humble even given the tourist traffic they get on the daily.

Best tempura ever. Go early, they run out of your favorite items. A must go to if you're in Hilo. Take out only and so affordable.

If you know this place then you know you have to show up early. Best bento place on the big island and the best one I've ever been to. Just looking at the picture is making my mouth water

Hands down the best shrimp tempura in town. Their maki sushi is also very tasty. The staff here is always friendly and the wait time isn't too bad. A perfect place to stop for a small bite, breakfast, or lunch.

This place is a must when visiting Hilo. I had to wait little bit because there was a line out the door. But it was definitely worth the wait! Every thing was ONO! I also had great service! Didn't catch his name but he was very informative about everything since it was my first time there, and he did it with a smile! :) keep up the great work!
