I had an amazing experience at this Hawaiian food spot! The dishes were incredibly moist and comforting, truly hitting the spot. The pancakes were a standout so soft and fluffy, with just the right texture, and definitely not dry. Ill definitely be coming back for more.

Absolutely delicious food! The staff was deeply invested in my trying food that I would like and guiding me through a menu of food I wasnt familiar with. Everything was as delicious as promised. Ill be back!

We stopped here in a whim and are so happy we did. Quiet unassuming place in Renton with some of the best pacific island food Ive had! We will definitely be returning. The fiesta plate was enough for two!

A smaller space to seats 5 couples. You can get to go! Call in if you do that! Overall a nice space to sit down if you can steal a seat but people move in and ...

Saimin Says is my no contest, goto for islander food! Everything is seasoned perfectly, the portions are huge, and the prices are super reasonable. Ive never had a bad dish here! ...

Oh man. This food was crazy good I had the Fiesta plate which is chamoru food. I chose the brisket and BBQ chicken. Both had a nice char, great flavor, and good portions. that orange chamoru rice is just different in the best way possible. ...

Really great authentic Hawaiian food! The portions are generous and yummy. I like how in the mac salad they add some tuna it gives it a different flavor. Everything was made fresh and it was all delicious. We ate here and then went to shop at Ikea. We also got some malasadas to go!
