This place is always packed. I always just get one slice and it's a HUGE piece of pizza. It's in a small strip mall really close to the beach. Definitely a must!

This is a TON of food. I got the small peanut butter bowl and it was too much. It was so delicious and rich. My daughter and I could have shared one. Do not miss this place! Right near Kailua Beach next to Bob's Pizzeria.

Never would have thought that you could get such great poke here. I always get the red pepper flake poke bowl. You can also just buy the poke and make your own rice at home! Enjoy!

This is just down the road from Lanika Beach and it is also so pretty. Same as Lanika there isn't much for shade. The water was so clean and pretty the day we were there. I don't have a car but there was plenty of parking.
