Hawaiian, Barbeque
I had been wanting and craving to visit this place for sometime now, especially after they re-opened months ago. Typically, I live in the neighborhood, and kept putting it off until January 24th. I guess it was time, and it finally happened. My craving was still there, and I suggested it to my friend who I was with, who was also hungry that we look at their menu before ordering by phone for pick-up. I pulled-up the menu on Google Maps, and on their website, and I found it wasn’t giving me enough information, or, missing some information about what exactly is included in the Combo dishes, and the photos didn’t help either. Nonetheless, anticipating a great choice and food, I called to ask questions before ordering to go. The male who answered (I forget his name) was helpful in his answers. We ordered 2 Chicken Teriyaki Combos with fountain drinks, and picked it up in 20 minutes. I was greeted by the same male who answered the phone, and the excellent service continued. He continued to be helpful with providing a hassle-free pay transaction, and courteously made sure that I was aware of the help-yourself condiments, and I left with delicious smelling Combos in-hand with his friendly goodbye. The food was delicious, and service was excellent. I will be back any day now. I recommend this. Thanks
We were supposed to just get some sodas. But we passed the Sunshine Hawaii restaurant. I've never been there, in the 3 years I've been here, so it was a cool surprise. We had it to go. They had many different plates to choose from, I had the cashew chicken. It was great. I would definitely recommend it, but for a special occasion.
Food was delicious, big portions, customer service was good, I went an hour before closing and the kid in front was smiling and joking felt very welcoming better than ono Hawaiian sometimes
The place is clean and quite big. The foods is almost the same with Ono Hawaiian. All are good, the macaroni need a little more seasoning.
Great portions and the food is always great to. Way better than the other chains.
Taste like the plate lunches on the food trucks in Maui! In the middle of Stockton! Who knew???
Great little place right next to my hotel. The staff were very friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. Me and my husband got the mini meal and it was very fulling and delicious. I gave a 4 out of 5 because the tables were a bit dirt but that was my only complaint. All in all I would definitely come back again if I were in town.
I frequent this place and love eating lunch here, place is clean food is amazing. Every once in a while they get your order wrong or use "older" meat. But 90% it will be a good experience, certainly better than other places that come to mind
Lit food, nice spacing and all. Love how their meals give so much for not much moneys.
Such a great value for really good food! Ordered #4 combo chicken and beef was tasty and guava nectar drink (very sweet). Staff really friendly. Bathroom clean. Would come here again!
Every time I have come to this place the food is alwaysGood. Except for today.The pork was so salty, It was like I was eating salt out ofasalt shaker. Not only that I had more macaroni salad than I have ever received from them. It is like they cut their meat portion in half and tripled the salad. DO NOT get me started on the spam!!!!
BETTER than Ono Hawaiian bbq. Place is clean, food is great!! Gave us an extra 2 sides of macaroni salad on the house. Good service. Highly recommend!
This was my first experience and it was exceptional! The chicken teriyaki and fire roasted shrimp are great! They have a big lunch crowd!
Really, really good. I have tried a bunch of dishes here and I have liked them all
I usually don't like this kind of food but this places really good better than L&L And The prices are better
I love an Authentic BBQ joint where the sources and rubs are shop secrets but absolutely delicious. This was it , I have a high standard for this type of place so I believe you'd agree with my assessment here if you happen to try it lol. Location is lacking due to low visibility to traffic making some what hard to find if you don't know your way around but worth the efford.
Outdated menu and food quality. not authentic polynesian food. Asian influenced meals. Kalua pig is not traditionally cooked but uses a smoke flavoring to give the impression of. Make sure the fish is what they advertise. Mahi mahi can easily be advertised but you are actually eating swai, basa or tilapia filet. They are not the same fish. 3 stars is overall score. Staff is polite.
Food was fresh did not wait long at all. Cashier was very friendly. I went twice in one week. And you get plenty of food.
The food is always well prepared and delicious, employees hands over good service. I really like the cleanliness and atmosphere. Will visit here again.
First time my wife and I picked up some food potstickers Excellent A little crab cakes I can't remember what their called fantastic add enough food for 2 days Which they put a little bit more macaroni salad loved it excellent we are eating there again soon
Food is very delicous and well portioned. The space itself is colorful and if it weren't for the pandemic, I'd love to sit down and dine in! It definitely beats other Hawaiian cuisine spots!
Friendly staff and wonderful food. My favorite meal is the Fire Island Chicken. Cooked fresh and delicious.
Visiting from Denver and wanted some Hawaiian bbq....found this place and was very happy that I did! Very good food!!!! Great prices too!
Have gotten several luncheons catered by them now. Food is always delicious and exactly what you would expect from a Hawaiian BBQ, and the staff is always super friendly and helpful.
I love the food, always good. However, they've messed up on my order more than two times. While I was waiting for my food today they messed up on like 2 peoples orders ahead of me. I didn't look at my plate till I got home & they gave me the wrong plate. They state that it is "our" responsibility to look at our orders before we leave.. & can only do something about it if I take the plate back, even though they acknowledged that they messed up. Cause they had my plate there still.. like seriously? They need to he better organized
This place is delicious!! I've only eaten there once, but the two plates we got were delicious! 😊 my husband got chicken teriyaki, and I got the bbq plate, came with rice and macaroni salad. Both sides were perfect for the plate, easy on the palate, and the meat was seasoned so flavorfully good! It went perfect together.
Friendly informative staff. Prompt service. Fresh hot food in less than 10 minutes. Great place!!
My family loves it here. The family meal is just right for us. Always clean and great staff.
Definitely a great please for a good family deal. Before Chinese food was my favorite but after coming here. The food is bomb. They are nice, always on top of the customers.
Omg! Love it here and the customer service is Great! Everyone is so sweet! Even the cook's say HI! Kudos to the cook's food is Good! Bought the family pack and had left over's..
Nice and clean inside, staff was nice and service was fast. The food was good and price reasonable
Food is good. However I asked to order their pasta salad with no onions and they said no they couldn’t do it. They make their salad in the morning and make a big batch. The worker told me if I do a small order of their catering services he said it feeds 12-15 people and cost $30 and said they can make that with no onions if requested so I said ok I’ll buy that and he said when would you like to pick it up I asked if the morning would be best and he said hold on and never came back on the phone and then after 10 minutes hung up.
The Kalbi Short Ribs plate is my favorite dish to have here. It's the usual for me. And compared to other Hawaiian BBQ places, Sunshine cooks it just right. Macaroni salad is well prepared and it taste great. The teriyaki sauce is also prepared well and isn't overpowering. I also can say the same for the Lodi location. Their cooks do a fantastic job.
Came here to pick up a order and this place was really clean and it doesn't have a lot of people. A great place to eat tried their macaroni salad and rice it was delicious!
The Fire Island Chicken is spicy and delicious, rice is moist, and pasta is tasty! Get over here and eat something different.
We love this place!! Food is ALWAYS on point, the dining room is immaculate, though dated. Service is always on point to!!
The food was excellent. Unfortunately I didn't get to eat all my plate, because the person I was dining with did chew his food good enough and began choking after helping him dislodge the food that was stuck in the stroke. Stroke he spit it on in my plate. Ruining my meal but saving his life.
