- LALeoAHawaii •2 reviews4.0Dined on Apr 5, 2023Really good Izakaya style place to have dinner. We had a number of dishes from yakitori skewers to starters, to drinks. Reasonable costs considering the amount of food we had. Can get a bit loud but noise levels are dependent upon how many people are in the place.
