Ekahi Grill To Go - Avon

Katsu was nicely (and freshly) cooked, the katsu sauce was superb and very flavorful. Musubi was delicious. However the I prefer the spam to rice ratio to have a LITTLE thicker spam. Still very good. Husband got the plated with steak and pork. The steak was excellent and the pork was well seasoned and paired very well with the rice. Small soda options BUT they have Jarritos soda so bonus points for that. The cashier/cook was a little … quiet(?) didn’t greet when we walked in or ask if we needed help, no big deal but might be off putting for others.

Order from from here on Saturday that I really just wanted to try something different, I give the food a 4/5 because they don’t use salt on the rice and regardless if you add sauce on it you can taste how bland it is but everything else had a really good flavor, the fries were top notch! I do recommend to get the pig over the chicken is really flavorful, the chicken was really crispy but since it was dry and the rice was also dry I didn’t enjoy it as much! The service was excellent they were really nice and had good vibe the whole time! Also affordable, also I had forgotten to take pictures before and this are from when I was already eating them

We enjoyed the food (I had the Hawaiian poke and macaroni salad) but you have to be patient. There appears to be a dire staff shortage. A now hiring sign was prominently posted and at 5:30 there were only two people working while business was steady and getting busier. As a result the wait times were long and food came out piecemeal as soon as it was ready. We could tell the two employees working were feeling a bit overwhelmed as customers that could not wait longer requested refunds on all or part of their orders. Even so, the people working were polite and really seemed to be doing their best with the situation. So I definitely recommend this place but suggest planning ahead and giving it a try when you are not in a hurry. For four people it took us ~75 minutes to order our food, receive our order (in two waves), eat, and head out. So being surprised with that is not fun but it is manageable if you know what to expect.
