We took my mother-in-law to Hula Grill to celebrate her birthday. There were six of us, and we ordered a variety of dishes to share: Caesar salad with grilled chicken, seafood chowder, guava BBQ chicken, Korean chicken wings, mushroom cashew ravioli, Localicious salad, and focaccia bread. The highlight of the meal was definitely the focaccia bread, paired with their famous chili pepper water mixed with olive oil—absolutely delicious! While the guava BBQ chicken was a bit dry and the mushroom cashew ravioli overly salty, the bread and our amazing waiter, Paco, truly made the evening special.

Invited friends to celebrate a birthday at Katsumidori. Had a wonderful time overall. We knew the group we invited was not big sushi eaters but took a chance. They enjoyed the fried dishes (karaaage, oyster, tempura) and various sushi rolls. Of course I had my usual tuna deluxe, hotate, uni and unagi which I pretty much had all to myself! Great food, great service and value S always. Still our go to place.

We were there to celebrate our anniversary and we were greeted with well wishes. Our server, Brandon used our name, which is something I truly believe is incredibly professional. He then explained the menu and their options. When asked, he recommended cocktails, and gave us his opinion on The menu choices for the four course dinner we each selected. He read our table and understood. We were not in a rush, but they are to enjoy a dining experience so our courcess came out paced accordingly. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and a great dining experience with excellent food great service and a wonderful way to spend our 20th anniversary.
