Can't believe I'm just stumbling upon this, you've reviewed us quite a few times as I've gone through and watched several of your vlogs. My name is Jason Executive chef of Aloha Specialties and I am so very glad you enjoy our food. We work very hard to give the people the absolute best and keeping the local tradition alive as many Hawaiian restaurants have lost their way and abandoned the old school classics. Please visit again! On behalf of all of us Thank you! 🤙

Aloha Barbara! Your ice cream sandwiches are amazing! We’d love to highlight your product in a future episode and tour your facility. We’ll be in Oahu mid December and of course Vegas once a month. Just contact us via email in the video description if interested.

Yay!! One of our faves, Aloha Specialties, our "must eat" place since 2009! Back then, they had "serve yourself water/ice and to-go boxes". Have updated the premises nicely. Food just as good as back then! Will def be patronizing Leilani's Attic, tho, I always visit Beef Jerky Store annually. Hubby was delighted to see y'all at our fave place, like home away from home, and was very impressed by Lisa's descriptions of her every bite! The food at Straight Up looks delish and will be a must stop next year! Always enjoy your dining in Vegas. Thank you!

We've ordered for take-out numerous times now. The family that runs it are the nicest people too. She makes all the cakes which are pure delish. Hubby does all the grillin' and always has a smile on his face. And yes, portions are large. Cannot go wrong with Straight Up!

Look at all those Hawaiian snacks and fresh Hawaiian leis…😊 Wow cookies and cream bread…you both had impeccable timing with no crowds😮. I was picking things off the menu as the camera was focused on them. ❤Now the cooks know how to grill Kalbi…look at the glistening fat…Bill’s shirt matches my lime green swirly fountain pen. I’m with Lisa you can taste food made with love!!…My Grandpa’s cooking and my Mom’s cooking…thank you for sharing!
