It's time for another Tuesday local video and this week I'm trying out Island Flavor. This was a Hawaiian restaurant recommended to me by a viewer and so it's my first time here. I'm really excited to try out a lot of dishes because as you may have heard:
Every restaurant is a buffet if you're willing to pay
Thanks for watching!

Aloha Shin! In the California Hotel is the OG Hawaiian style restaurant Aloha Specialties! You gotta try them! Hawaiian food is the ethnic cuisine of Hawaiian people( laulau, poi) Hawaiian style is a mixture of different cultural foods. For example, you start off with Lumpia which is Filipino. It's really important to ethnic Hawaiians (like me) that the public doesn't think brown gravy is an actual Hawaiian food. Absolutely love your videos. Mahalo!!

​@@VegaswithShinHeads Up: the reason the California Hotel Casino has such a large Hawaiian clientele is because Boyd Gaming Corp offers huge discounts and coupons to only Hawaii residents. Their marketing program for Hawaii is unique for sure, but it's made them very popular with Hawaiians visiting Las Vegas. So the restaurants, bars and retail are affordable for Hawaiian visitors, but the prices for everyone else are expensive.

I don't mind paying for my meals. I'm not doing KZfaq for the money. I'm perfectly happy with my day job as it covers my normal life. KZfaq is a hobby for me which is why I'm able to put everything I make off the channel back into the next videos. My actual goal of the channel is to have a vlog on every non-chain restaurant on the strip and downtown on the channel eventually and have a full complete collection. And this year I thought it would be nice to also throw local businesses some extra attention along the way so I started my Tuesday series. I will add Fukuburger to the list! Thanks for watching!

I hope the rice is a little more starchy/sticky than what you show in the video, but the price is definitely right! Just a suggestion, consider including more details on the location of off-Strip restaurants. The receipt did show Durango Avenue, but knowing the cross street would be helpful. Another great video!

Always like garlic and shrimp, so the two would be heavenly together. I only ever had chicken katsu, but the other two dishes looked great. Never had hawaiian Mac salad, but heard it's supposed to be good. Thanks for letting us tag along. I'm hungry now. 😅

VWS: Absolutely loved the vlog and food. Since I am part Hawaiian and it's the birthplace of my Mother I was familiar with all of your food choices. Pipikaula ( hanging beef) is really what is served in Hawaii instead of the short ribs which is more Korean as you know well. Chicken long rice would have been another authentic dish. Price was super good. Anywho thanks for the effort. See you Saturday for another crime scene lol JK 😜

liked the video-and restaurant-as a tourist if I came to Vegas-is this place easy to get to by Uber/Lyft-or by bus, or by cab ?-or just have a friend who lives there drive you-these are nice places-just want to know if its easy to get to

refreshing exploring regular restaurants... help out the local guys... The casinos/hotels/buffets in LV aint trying anymore to excel...(compared to similar around the world)... They're happy to serve the same old slop, and have the rubes pay for their overpriced swill...
