James and Gracie did an absolutely fantastic job on serving and cooking the food. Give these 2 a raise I got the seafood mix and everything tasted delicious. I especially enjoyed the shrimp and chicken. It had a smoky flavor that made me feel like I was in Hawaii at a BBQ. This place is the best BBQ in the valley and I highly recommend people give it a try, you’ll love it.

The food here is delicious and very authentic to Hawaiian BBQ! I've already gone back to try the orange chicken and BBQ Beef, and it did not disappoint. I will definitely be eating here again, it's one of my newest favorite places to eat in Porterville
