That Katsu sauce tho... that's what Katsu sauce should taste like with that little kick of flavor. The mac salad is old school with little shreds of carrots and no onions. The double cheeseburger brings me back to the days of Baron's drive inn. The only thing missing was the yellow sauce. The food is affordable compared to the fast food restaurants. Locations like this drive inn will be around for a long time. Worth the stop! Just an FYI, Cash only!

I have catered short ribs and BBQ chickens from Nānākuli to Makaha restaurants and I have to say that I ended with BBQ KAI about two months ago and they make the best!

Excellent selection for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. LARGE portions and good pricing. All food has been delicious and flavorful, often 1 plate can be 2 servings.Service is always fast and filled with Aloha.Usually call take out orders for pick up just to avoid lines... sometimes it can be busy. But orders usually not long from Order window.Great place to stop on the way to or from Poka 'i Bay or even to get while at the beach.They have an Excellent selection and reasonably priced catering menu for small or large parties. Awesome portions for prices and they often meet any special requests. Our keiki love their fried noodles with NO veggies. It tastes like fried saimin from da Manapua Man. 'Onolicious food and a favorite for Locals and long time Waianae residents ??????? Parking: 5-6 stalls in front diner. Parking available in lot next door and across the street.Beach is walking distance to store.
