'Ai Pono Cafe

Cheeeeehooo!! This food is incredible and Ono. Visiting family in the OC from St George, Utah. Great preview in anticipating the Vegas opening. Add this to your eating bucket list!!! Instant. Fan! Mahalo for the comfort of the islands with every bite!!

Get the Stockton Slap, its amazing! Every time I’m here, there’s about a 10 minute wait, but it’s worth it. I’ve never had trouble finding parking, the lot is quite large. You order at the counter and then find an open seat. They then call your number and bring you food to your table. Finding an open table might be a little challenging at times, but I’ve always eventually found a seat.

Great staff, very clean, and the food we ate here is definitely worth the drive. Im from Hawaii, born and raised, and their food taste better than some places in Hawaii.. Ono thats forsure. Ono means taste great.

12:30 on a Friday was VERY busy! After ordering at the counter, we just happened to get a table inside. There's limited seating outside. The restaurant is in a busy and popular strip mall. It's super clean inside with a surf vibe atmosphere and music. Food is simple and very fresh. I got chicken katsu. White meat flavorful & tender chicken with a light, thin breading served over sticky white rice, a side of coleslaw and macaroni salad.

My lawyer found this place online and suggested we try it. It was a pleasant surprise as I'd never had Hawaiian food. Despite the long line the food here was 10000% worth it. Everything was so flavorful and we felt welcome. Place seems to be full all the time, and with good reason. Don't pass up the spam musubi.
