I tried this place due to the reviews below...the transplanted hawaiians may not have possessed a good palate in the first place...not recommended. Posted by KO on 11/22/2005 Just OK Fast food atmosphere, but OK food - prices are passable. What they lack is sauces and every plate is too full of starch. Would you really order rice AND potato salad if you had a choice? The problem is that too much of the menu is "sort of" Japanese, so it seems not quite right, though it may be very authentic Hawaiian. Posted by Mahalo on 09/02/2005 Just average Basic decor, okay service, the food looks good but tastes just alright. I came thinking I would get a good hawaiian BBQ like those I had enjoyed while a college freshman in Honolulu, but the BBQ chicken here is not even close. The macaroni salad was good but nothing special. The can guava was also just ok. Posted by Uilani on 08/09/2005 Just like being home.. Ask anyone from Hawaii what they miss the most about home and the response is usually "the food". I can't tell you how happy I was to discover that L&L has come to Manhattan! My mouth waters everytime I think about it. They also have Portuguese sausage, which any local knows is a staple to a true local breakfast. I've eaten everything on the menu and I have to agree about the saimin, not the true local style. My only complaint...the one on 8th ave doesn't always play Hawaiian music. Maybe the owners can get some? Posted by Renee on 08/08/2005 The Real Thing Out of all the places claiming they serve Hawaiian food. This place is the only one that knows what the stuff is. After living in Hawaii and missing the food I have found a place that brings the Aloha back into my life. Posted by Jenet on 06/03/2005 Taste of home I LOVE THIS PLACE! The fulton branch is better than the one on broadway. It's a taste of home! It may not be like sitting in the L&L in hawaii..but when I have my aloha drink in one hand and a fork sull of loco moco in another..I'm that much closer to home. :) YUMYUM! Posted by Carmela on 05/26/2005 The Perfect Lunch I'm always looking for tasty, fast, cheap food to have for lunch and when I saw this new restaurant I was a little skeptic of the claims on the flyers stuck on its window but the food looked delicious and the prices reasonable. The first time there I ordered the Luau special because it reminded me of my trip to Hawaii years earlier and wanted to experience that wonderful meal again. I was not disappointed! The food was way too much for me and I couldn't eat everything (that's the largest meal on the menu, I think) and felt very guilty because I'm trying to lose some weight. Unfortunately, the food in this place is addictive! Yes, it's that good! On my next trip I ordered a simple meal of barbecue chicken (the small size) which comes with a generous scoop of rice, a scoop of macaroni salad, and a small salad. Again, the meal was delicious. Needless to say, I have visited the restaurant again and again. You do have to wait a little while for the food but that's because it's cooked fresh. It's worth the wait. One complaint: my diet is shot! Posted by LC from Aiea in NYC on 05/17/2005 What's up with the "Saimin" I felt an Island breeze blowing when the news of L & L establishing a couple of branches here in the city. I couldn't wait to rush on over and have my first Hawaiian-style "plate lunch" in this fast-paste city. I loved the Lau Lau combo and especially the barbecue combo! I still can't believe how inexpensive they are. You really get alot of food for the bucks! I'll be going back for more of the Hawaiian-type fare but I have one bone of contention concerning my ultimate favorite local food...saimin. I ordered "your" saimin at the Fulton branch and I was very disappointed with it to say the least. The thought that I might finally have found a place that serves the kind of ramen one would get back home made me salivate at knowing that now that there's an L & L here I won't have to wait till my next visit to Hawaii to satisfy my cravings. The noodles were the type from your local Chinatown restaurant (more like spaghettinistraight and tastless) as for the soup base, it tasted like water with very little flavor. Real saimin on a cold winter's night is the perfect cure for what ails you or to bring the warmth of Island memories back. Posted by Alona's Boy on 03/29/2005 Best plate lunch on the mainland! True Hawaiian-style plate lunch in downtown Manhattan, and it's very inexpensive. You can't beat that without visiting the Islands. Posted by Maui Girl on 03/27/2005 Guy below has never had a plate lunch... L&L is rated as one of the top plate lunch spots in HAWAII and its AWESOME that there is a location here. As for the "styrofoam" containers...This is the way a plate lunch should be served if it even wants to pretend its authentic. That's da kine...that's how we like it thats why...li' dat. Whether you eat in or take out it is served to go so you can take the rest...you know like if you go to a party and ''make one plate'' when you leave. It is the WHOLE concept of the plate lunch...hawaiian style cuz. LOVE it!

Once the home of a thriving pineapple plantation, Lanai has reinvented itself as an alluring resort destination offering world-class golf courses and award-winning accommodations . In ancient times, Lanai was thought to be overrun with evil spirits. A young man named Kaululaau, the son of a Maui chief, was exiled to Lanai to explore the island and deem it free of such spirits to make Lanai suitable for settling. A major chapter in Lanais history was penned in 1922, when an enterprising businessman named James Dole purchased the island for $1.1 million. Dole started growing pineapple on his island, and soon canned pineapplea new concept at the timebecame a smash hit on the mainland. In time, tiny Lanai developed into the worlds largest exporter of this succulent fruit. At one point, the island was producing 75 percent of the worlds pineapple. For decades, Lanai was celebrated as Hawaiis flourishing "Pineapple Island." Thousands of acres were dedicated to pineapple, and people came from far and wide to work the fields. In the late 1980s, as the pineapple industry began to wane, Lanai turned to tourism. Two luxury resorts were built: the Lodge at Koele and the Manele Bay Hotel . Also added were a pair of championship golf courses: the Experience at Koele and the Challenge at Manele (designed by Ted Robinson and Jack Nicklaus, respectively). Besides golf, Lanai offers many things to do and see. Go for a swim at picturesque Hulopoe Beach. Snorkel the islands cliff-lined west coast. Explore the Garden of the Gods , an intriguing rock formation reminiscent of a lunar landscape. Hunt for treasures or examine historic petroglyphs at Shipwreck Beach . Admire local artwork at the Lanai Arts & Culture Center, a prominent showcase for community arts. You can even "lock and load" at Lanai Pine Sporting Clays , the only resort sporting clays course in the state.
