    My faves are their tuna melt and their musubi. My only gripe is sometimes they aren't ready to serve food when they open until an hour in which is ridiculous.

    Nice place to chill, work, or study. They serve milk tea, coffee, and food so you can basically spend the whole day here. Ask a server for the wifi password.

    Great Hawaiian food, but bubble tea is subpar. It's good for working, and the free wifi (Pearl Cafe) password is "pearl999"

    Opened at 8:00, got there at 8:50 and the tapioca pearls still weren't ready!! Bad form. Not sure I'll be back, especially in the mornings!

    Split a mango ice for a 50 cent surcharge. Perfect quantity for two kids.
