We enjoyed our meal here. After seeing mixed reviews, I wasn’t sure what to expect but it turns out the chicken plate was very delicious despite the food being pre-cooked. Would definitely come back and recommend to others!
We arrived around 1 pm after driving on the Road to Hana and this was a wonderful place for lunch. Having lunch by the red sand beach was very nice and the food was very good.

Honestly, just OK. Nothing special or rave about. First attempt to try Huli Huli Chicken failed as we got there around 3 pm and they were sold out. Second attempt was a success - we got there just before noon and they had plenty. We ordered combo, famous chicken and pork. Chicken was too dry for my taste and didn't really have any flavor - whole chicken from Costco tastes similar in my opinion. Cabbage was good - just like I like it. Pork was good though, not dry and tasty. And I am a chicken person, so it feels weird to write this review.
Side salad and rice were good - not a lot but enough. We actually ended up sharing one portion as it was enough for two adults! The price was about $26 I believe when we visited.
Sitting area is small. We ended up in the tent further from the food stand. There were too many flies to enjoy. There were also some homeless people in tents which didn't look pretty.
Overall it was that type of experience where you can say - been there, done that, don't need to repeat.
Side note - there are not many options for food in that area, so I guess having cooked hot meal is a huge plus!

Its a bit off the beaten path, but well worth the stop. It felt like we were grabbing a plate of food at Auntie and Uncle's barbecue. The set-up is very simple; a tent and a folding table, yet they run it like a practiced kitchen. You are served like you are family. The "dining area" we chose was a log on the shore of a red sand beach. It just doesn't get any better than that!

This is a great stop for lunch on your Road to Hana journey. They were super generous. Great for people with gluten free issues. Delicious. Meat was seasoned great. Food was hot and fresh. Free condiments are available.

I had high expectations, and if I’m being honest, I wasn’t wowed. First attempt on our “Road to Hana” trip, got there around 3:20pm and they were sold out. Had planned to leave early morning the next day but I really wanted to try this place so we changed our plans to get this for lunch. Chicken was pretty good- moist and smoky flavor. Rice and side salad were not great. Rice was dry and salad tasted like it could have used another rinse and needed more dressing. Nice view sitting by the water to eat.
