What's not to love about this place!? It's fun, loud and colorful, and the sales are really good. I love the selection of seafood (unagi often is on sale here), poke (the fresh poke is REALLY yummy and often a good price!), asian items (from rows of rice and asian sauces to hot pot lobster balls, to frozen beef bowls and dumplings and pastas), large alcohol selection (and good rotation of alcohol on sale!) and local souvenier items - you can find anything you may need here!
